RC 320: Coronanation Pt 1: You Can’t Outrun A Virus
Broadcasting on pirate satellite from Lockdown UK, REMAIN INDOORS! This town is all under lock down…bands don’t play no more (or indeed does anyone, least of all the kids in playgrounds). It seems an eternity since the last podcast and I said glumly that the Bond film had been cancelled due to this new virus.…

RC #309: Make Art GRATE Again
Aka don’t tell the trees – cos the trees don’t need to know! Those useless trees might be silently judging you, though.

RC 274: Winter Kills
Which podcast do you know mixes Purcell opera, post-rock, pop, indie, electro-pop, dub covers of disco, strange Xtian? blues-folk, soul, electronica, hip-hop, indie, minimal house and more? Radio Clash , that’s what! A very eclectic mix, starting out very upbeat and then going glacially downtempo and reflective at the end, so even the moods contrast.…
