Reel Love, The Film Soundtrack Show. Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Tarantino is a show with a really long title. It also is a show which is about film scores whether filled with pop or classical. Each week we'll be hearing some silver screen brilliance from a different theme to set you up for the week ahead. So get your popcorn, get your drink and settle down for the reel start to your week.
Amy’s Curiosity Carousel is the radio show for people who can’t throw things away because what if they’re important later?
It’s a welcoming space for heart-headed hoarders, weird girls with tote bags full of inexplicable objects, and fandom-frenzied freaks who know that emotional-support trinkets aren’t “just junk,” but intricate keys to canon, and proudly headcanoned, lore.
Each episode revolves around a playful theme (like lucky charms, seasonal souvenirs, or obscure oddities). Amy shares her own curiosities, invites listeners to submit and discuss their most beloved items, and weaves in thematically related songs and artists along the way. The show celebrates thrift-store goblins, micro-collections, hyperfixations, internet obsessions, and that one tiny object you keep in your pocket just in case.
Expect silly games, dramatic object backstories, nostalgic spirals, chaotic joy, and music that feels like your inner monologue finally got a soundtrack.
If you’ve ever said:
“I’ll use this someday”
“This reminds me of a character”
“This song feels like a trinket”
“No, I can’t explain it - it just belongs to me”
…Then this is the show for you!

One theme, one girl and as many songs as we can fit into one hour.
Every week I'll present to you a list of songs that share a common theme. Of course you are more than welcome to make your own suggestions both for themes and songs.
The University of York's very own DJ Society presents the greatest clubnight/rave tracks, delivered directly to your pre-drinks. Want the club sounds, before even leaving for town? Stay locked in with Breakz' finest disc jockeys, playing the sounds you want to hear to start your night off right.
A show based around your requests, "All Things Go" - If appropriate of course. The show will vary from all sorts of genres and we will play as many of your requests. We will also fit in a few of our own requests too, but make sure you listen in as you can take control this hour.
An hour of the most audacious and lucrative banter known to mankind. Discussing an arrray of topics, showcasing local talents; all admist a tantilising playlist you could only forge in your dreams.
It's that time of the year again! For a second year in a row Dee will be testing the limits of endurance the the sheer trial of a 4 hour show, but this time with guests (hopefully!). Come down and just sit on the air and talk utter nonsense for four hours!
The end of the uni year is nigh, and as such, so is the end of a few URY Careers. Yes, it's time to get ready to move on from uni and into the real world, while of course staying at a respectful two metre distance. Join us as we reminisce about the last few years, and close off the academic year with a bang! (Hopefully not from Stores...)
Unlike Beyoncé, we make our own content. Join us as we exercise our contractual right to a maximum of 2 Beyoncé songs in an hour, plus as may features as we can find.
A series of four specials exploring the relationship between sounds and words and other forms of art. Each week, we will be discussing the connections between different pieces of work with a series of special guests. We'll be featuring great and innovative music, writing and art written by our favourite established artists and york students.
The idea of fishtail comes from Ouroboros, which is the image of a fish or reptile biting its own tail. It signifies something that is constantly recreating itself, something that pre-existed and is so powerful that it must continue. Of course, it also comes from the notion of a fisherman's tale. In our programme, we're going to be 'biting our tales' and circulating from one art form to the next.
Welcome to Raised on Rock with Jess and Gabbie; the show where we discuss, learn and reminisce about the music genre that underscored our childhood! If your music taste has ever been described as “dad rock” then this is the show for you. We pay tribute to the albums our dads owned, and the playlists we’ve created as we appreciate how they have shaped our elite music taste today. Expect to hear some iconic 1970s-1990s bangers, intertwined with fun facts about specific influential years in rock music.
Chess Warren sits down with world renound DJ James Hype, to talk all things music production, returning to performing, and more!
Another thing associated with the North - apart from the rain - is Northern Soul music, a scene that keeps on burning. An hour of pure soul, Motown, maybe a bit of Ska if we're feeling adventorous. An introduction to the scene beyond the odd Stevie Wonder track you've heard in the car, so put your pen down on this hazy Sunday and just enjoy. The revival is more alive than ever - Keep the Faith.
A show dedicated to all things synthwave, the breakout electronic genre featuring old-school synths inspired by the pop hits and movie soundtracks of the 1980's. James and Bernie will drive you through the night across the genre's expansive indie scene, with the occasional genuine retro hit for good measure. If you're a fan of contemporary styles and still wish we used cassettes, then this is the show for you!
