Acoustics is back!
A comedic (hopefully) and disastrous (definitely) student radio show, created in the midst of exam season to let out some steam with live acoustic sessions from upcoming artists and curious questions leading to impossible debates.
Join Sophie and James for a special late night Transmission. Back in our original slot, we will be telling tales of musical history and playing hosts of classic tracks. Potential themes for each show are the stories of iconic bands, musicians or albums, the evolution of genres and record labels.
Tune in to listen to an hour of Jazz and Soul and artists with Jazz a routes. Looking at the Musicians from the golden age of Jazz right up to the present artists making the Jazz scene today.
(Pronounced "directory Bandcamp") D:\Bandcamp>dir is a show all about the weird and wonderful world of self-releasing musicians and tiny bedroom labels found on Bandcamp. Join Night Call and 8-Bit and Beyond host Bernie, as he sticks his arm into the petri dish known as online music culture. Everything from vaporwave, to future funk, to trip hop, to doom jazz, to whatever you can think of really.
Just a few Indie tunes and a bit of a chat, really.
Showcasing the best independent and alternative music tracks from a range of genres as well as the odd interview from musicians on campus and beyond!
You could say it's post-watershed ;)
A tribute to musicians and artists spanning enough variety to legally broadcast, picking the best of everything they've been a part of
Ever wondered what happens when you get 3 professional musicians travelling in a van for long periods of time to a gig with nothing else to do? Well this is a bit of an insight into that… Some of the things we have discussed in the past have included "How many grains of sugar do you get when you ask for "one sugar"?" or "What if you woke up, and you were a duck in a Foie Gras factory?" Or simply "What is reality?". Join us for two hours of deep discussions, or two hours of nonsense. You decide. ***PLEASE NOTE*** Some topics may be slightly contentious or sensitive, the views raised in this show are the views of the individuals, NOT URY, UoY or any other affiliated party. ***

If you like blues, country and other early Americana, then this is the show for you! Let's enjoy the haunting beauty of this vast artform that has informed and influenced almost all popular music of the twentieth century. From the rural drones and tones of the delta blues to the swinging rhythms of western swing, we'll be exploring a whole range of music from this genre's family tree. I'll also be delving into the stories and myths that surround these mysterious musicians.
If rock is your genre of choice, then look no further. Tuck-in to a plateful of punk and indie bangers served up for your enjoyment, with just a sprinkling whatever I'm most interested in on the day. Together, we can hopefully discover something new each week!
A seamless hour of experimental music curated and presented by Freddie Rose. With minimal talking and a focus on avant-garde and underground music, Experimental Jet Set harkens back to the college radio stations in the United States and UK in the 20th century, whose dedication to music below the mainstream championed and gave a voice to generations of experimental, alternative musicians and art-rockers - including Sonic Youth, whose 1994 album the show's name is derived from.
"College stations saw promulgation of lesser-heard groups as their responsibility; their sacred mission. They were staffed by music enthusiasts who worked without pay, and who saw college rock as a desperately needed alternative to the platinum tedium of “classic” and Top 40 drivel." - Ian Svenonius
