Norbs sits in for the weekly Motoring Show live and direct from the floor in his house!

TD & Westie bring some much needed feel-good vibes to kick-start the weekend. Straight house grooves and soulful flavours.

Humans on Wax is a Coventry-based vinyl collective head up by ElleJay & DJ Fazed. Pre-Rona they kept us all dancing with events across the city and now, we are chuffed to have them drop the first of their monthly slots right here on Block Radio. It's a dreamy electronic affair from start to finish.

Sundays are for walks, big dinners and Mixed signals with Ellie B.

New tunes from DEADLETTER, Sing Leaf, Sylvan Esso, SAULT & Alexandra Hamilton-Ayres.

Expect anything from leftfield pop to post-punk in this fortnightly show.

Party Starts residents TD & Westie begin their new slot with the Motoring Coventry crew. Lock in for dub and darker bits from the lads.

As well as on the Motoring line-up, you can still catch them on Party Starts every other Friday.

It’s the 10th edition of House Party and to celebrate Matt's got all the usual treats from a good old crate dig; forgotten gems and underground classics. High energy Latin flavours and house throughout.
