The Night Train®

It's pre-record BAU this week as Paul has returned from the west and Steve has returned from the east! There's no guest mix, the self indulgence was toned back so it's just 2 hours of great music, hot chat and a great mini-set of mid-2000s glitchy-electronica. 

Point of note this week, both of us have realised we can put a jazzy effect on the mic when we do our links. Pay close attention and see if you can notice. Full disclaimer, this does not enhance the standard of the waffle.

Let us know if the show is any good. You can also get in touch to ask for request or shout-out at;

PS. Eastie, we're still waiting on that guest mix.

This week for reasons best known to himself, Steve decided to do ANOTHER solo show. Paul was on holiday (tune in next week to hear about that) so we couldn't leave you with nothing!

It's a pretty normal affair until you make it to hour two... then Steve hands over the Sheffield Live airwaves to himself for a 30 minute guest mix of mean psychedelic-guitar-fuzz action.

Sorry this upload is a day late... Steve's fancy new laptop has decided to break so it's take a minute to get an old one working for the listen-again crew.

These pre-records are a strange beast, a real game of two halves and other cliches. This week is no different. This week sounded like two very different shows, hour one sounds somewhat like an hour two and hour two sounds a bit like an hour one.

Anyway, you can be the judge of that when you listen for yourselves!

That's right! For (hopefully) one week only, Steve ditches the deadweight and soars with a solo show. It's been a minute since he's been trusted to take the reins on his own so the pressure is always on when left to his own devices.

As you expect with a 2hr show from Steve, it's got;

- Instagram obsessions

- Talk about 20 year old radio shows

- Mindless rambling about songs that is low on facts

He also announces the latest TNT Album Challenge! Get in touch if you wanna play along.

We are totally gettin' in the groove now. It's been a few weeks but this show could be proof that we (somewhat) know what we're doin' with these pre-records.

This week, tune-in to hear about Paul's drink of choice and Steve's current obsessions amongst other things! Also, don't want to big it up but these could be some of our most cohesive links yet.

pologies for this being a day late! Hopefully it's meant you guys have been chompin' at the bit to hear what The Night Train has to offer for show 203.

Well, it's all solid gold all the way down the line with the unique blend of music from across the ages that only we can deliver*.

*Loads of people do shows like ours but it's only TNT that gives you bin chat.

This show might contain some of the best links since we were in a studio. While that's not sayin' a lot, it's still pretty exciting. There's also new songs, old songs, a kinda mini-mix and tales of lockdown adventures.

We say this each week but nobody does, so we're gonna write it in capital letters...

LET US KNOW IF THE SHOW IS ANY GOOD BY GETTING IN TOUCH!

LINES OF COMMUNICATION ARE OPEN FOR REQUESTS, DEDICATIONS, TALL TALES AND ANYTHING ELSE.

SOME MIXES YOU NEED IN YOUR LIFE

This is our 200th show on Sheffield Live. We were talking about what we were going to do to celebrate this milestone. Usually, we’d be doing another oddball show but it didn’t sit right with us.

A couple of weeks ago, for show 198, we did a show called “Rhythms of Resistance”, songs that spoke to protest, struggle and change.

Those with a keener ear might have noticed we only played one song from the reggae family tree. To be honest, there are too many to choose from, enough to fill a show by themselves (possibly more). So that’s what we’re doing tonight! 2hrs of ska, rocksteady, roots reggae and more.

We’re didn't talk much in this show as we wanted to focus on the power of the music so we’re writing this to explain what we’re doing and say thanks for the support over the last 199 shows.

Paul & Steve

So this is another great show in the pantheon of The Night Train. Powlo takes the 1st hour, Steve brings it all home for hour 2. The usual stuff, anniversary cuts, random waffle and a varied selection of genres for 2 hours.
