The Night Train®

It was teased last week and this week we've done it. Sadly, while we were off the air for 6 weeks quite a few great artists died. We've taken this week to celebrate their work. Some of them get a song, some of them get a few songs. It's never enough but it's the best we can do. If you like any of the artists mentioned, we implore you to get into their back-catalogue and enjoy some fantastic music.

To experience the show (sorta) live n direct.. tune into Sheffield Live, Sundays 9pm-11pm on 93.2FM, via the TuneIn Radio App or www.sheffieldlive.org

We managed it. The stars have aligned and what are about to listen to is the sound of two people bumbling their way through 120mins of community radio. Yes, as it’s a pre-record we could quite easily make it a slick affair. Also, we did edit it a bit. Can you imagine how bad the stuff was that we took out?!?

This week there’s new bits, old bits, bits we’ve been listening to on our summer break and some stuff we’ve played before.

Mornin' all...

No show again this week so we're back in the crates for another "classic" episode.

We're scheduling this to drop on Monday so it may or may not work.

------------------------------------------

It maybe a little late, but here is my tribute show to the anniversary of the birth of hip-hop (11th August 1973). First hour contains twelve classic Kool Herc records that most likely would have been played out on that now seminal night. Second hour is a freestyle on-the-fly selection of classic breaks and some later 70s stuff, all on the turntables.

Try to ignore any ropey live doubles/loops and low grade mic chat - I was very 'tired'. With Steve away on hols, attempting this solo was probably a daft (but fun) idea.

If you like what you hear join us live (almost) every Sunday 9pm-11pm on SheffieldLive! 93.2fm, via the TuneIn Radio App or www.sheffieldlive.org

Get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries! We're also available for family functions, weddings, funerals, boat launches and more.

Mornin' all. For those that saw on the socials, we didn't do a show yesterday. Powlo was on DJ duties so we didn't have time for a pre-record and nobody wants a Steve Solo Show. Instead, for the podcast crew, we're re-upping our Jamaican Independence Day Special from 2017.

Hopefully, we'll be back this week with a new show but if we don't, we'll just find another classic show from the archives. Perhaps an old UK Mondo show. Not played them in a while.

If you like what you hear (and who doesn't?!?) listen live every Sunday 9pm-11pm on SheffieldLive! 93.2fm, via the TuneIn Radio App or www.sheffieldlive.org

Get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries! We're also available for family functions, weddings, funerals, shop launches and more.

Here at TNT Towers, we love nothing more than a long and arduous task that provides little reward* and shameless self promotion.

A few months back, Paul decided to upload the Thirsty Ear mixes they used to give out at their monthly nights in Sheffield. We've mentioned it a few (too many) times on air.

This week there wasn't a show, so instead of leavin' you with nothin', we thought we'd give you a taster of one of the mixes. So here it is! Dark Phayd-R brings a mix of some tuff Africa funk heat.

If you wanted to check out the other mixes (and you should), head to https://thirstyear.bandcamp.com/ and cop the heat for free!

As always, to experience the show (sorta) live n direct.. tune into Sheffield Live, Sundays 9pm-11pm on 93.2FM, via the TuneIn Radio App or www.sheffieldlive.org

*See the Beck and Dylan album challenge tweets for proof.

Could this be the most eagerly anticipated show in Community Radio? Well... no. It's not. BUT it has been in the making for weeks, nay, months... It's The Night Train's Psych Special!

We've tried to dig deep and make a show with a number of different psychadelic styles and flavours. With a little help from our friends, we think we've made a pretty decent show.

Let us know if we've made a mistake or missed something great. The lines of communication are always open…

QUESTING W/ ZAKIA on NTS

https://www.nts.live/shows/questing-w-zakia

It’s hot. You don’t need us to tell you that. However, it does explain why this is a bit late getting uploaded. One of us is currently sweating in the attic, ripping songs for show 250, the other one of us is melting on the sofa with an overheating laptop cooking his legs.

Anyway, enough about us, and more about the show! Plenty of stuff covered this week…. Footwork, drones, soul, dubstep, a few covers and even some new cuts! We also wrestle with the quandary… “is the show formulaic to the detriment of the quality and are we bothered enough to change it if it is?”. Will we find an answer this question? Time will tell.

No show notes tonight, mainly as it’s too damn hot to listen back to the show again. If you want to know where to find something we’re waffling about, get in touch! The lines of communication are always open…

Wanna hear something "funny"? This show technically didn't go out last night. The edit wasn't done in time due to Steve falling down the cellar stairs and spending Friday night in A&E. Don't worry, he's fine (some might say he's even hamming it up a bit).

BONUS HILARITY: We accidentally uploaded last week's show by mistake. This should now be rectified.

Thought you'd all like the show anyway, mainly as some of you might want a bit of cheering up/a distraction for the week. We're all off in the Tiny Football Car to make sure the boys are OK.

As always, we're pleading that if you wanna help make the show more exciting, get in touch at nighttrain93.2[at]gmail[dot]com or https://www.twitter.com/RadioNightTrain on the tweets.

We know what you're thinkin'... "4th of July, those idiots will have done a hacky theme show" well... you're wrong! It's just a normal one. 2hrs of new music, old music, stuff we've played before, stuff we've forgotten we've played before and some adventurously long beds talk over.

Once again, we're pleading that if you wanna help make the show more exciting, get in touch at nighttrain93.2[at]gmail[dot]com or https://www.twitter.com/RadioNightTrain on the tweets.

After (kinda) takin' a week off, we're back with a new show of old music. Well, there are a couple of new things in there thanks to Steve. The rest of the show, as always, is filled with stuff we've been listening to this week. A word of warning for this show, final set of hour 2 shouldn't be listened to while operating heavy machinery.
