With this show it’s best to just focus on the music. Please ignore us butchering the Portuguese language when trying to pronounce artists and song titles. We did our best.

As it’s Carnival Season (and the big day tomorrow), we promised some people a Brasil special. If you’re not lucky enough to be celebrating Carnival/Mardi Gras, use this as the soundtrack to your Pancake Day.

Back this Sunday with a normal show, unless someone famous dies.

As always though, get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries!

We’re back next week with a Brasil special in preparation for Carnival. Get your requests and suggestions in, pronto.

How’s everybody’s Wednesday going? We’d like to think that with this show dropping in your feed, the day has got considerably better. Truth be told, this could have been uploaded on Sunday night but we were being lazy. Please forgive us.

The show. It’s a small record special so we packed some 45s in the bags and headed to the studio. For a show with very little planning, it’s actually turned out pretty damn good!

There might be a show on Sunday. It all depends on if Steve fancies going into the studio on his own. Tune in on Sunday to find out!

Anyway, it’s a great show. A different show. It features our first ever LIVE guest presenter, DJ Kalinka. He can be heard on Sheffield Live as one of the crew that brings you Two Foot Left.

We’re back on Sunday (hopefully) with a small records show.

Hot chat, recommending shows on other stations and all sorts of other nuggets of goodness. We will say, this has been uploaded in a bit of a hurry, so if there’s any mistakes, please let us know.

We will say, there are excellent show notes this week. Well worth wasting some time on.

As is tradition, we finish the year with a look at what we’ve purchased on wax over the last 12 months. This is part 1, big rekkids. LPs and 12”s. Next week, all being well, it’ll be little records.

Have a good festive period, whatever you end up doing. As always though, get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries!
