  • #198 Rhythms of Resistance (7th June 2020)

    This week, more than ever, we have been watching the news, trying to work out what we can do with our platform. It’s only modest but staying silent in these times isn’t an option, so tonight’s show is going to be a bit different.


    Regular listeners will know that music from the African diaspora runs throughout this show. Whether it’s from the spirit of Congo Square, sound system culture of Jamaica, block parties of the south Bronx, the list could go on

    .

    For this show, we spoke even less than normal. We picked 2 hours of songs that speak to protest, struggle and change. Music to soundtrack reflection, rhythms of resistance.


    We’re not going to tell you what to do, that’s not our place. We’re still not 100% sure what to do ourselves. We just know that being quiet isn’t an option any more.

    Hopefully you’ll have a chance to meditate on the kind of change you want for the world.


    As always, we hope you enjoy the show.

    Paul & Steve

  • #197 (31st May 2020)

    nother show in two parts. P kicks things off and S brings it home. In terms of music, this is a like a classic TNT (aka it's all over the shop). Usual mix though of old and new, strange and straightforward.

  • #196 (24th May 2020)

    Back in the saddle with another 2 hours of quality entertainment! Hear about our latest pointless album challenge and what we've been listening to. We didn't get 'round to doin' the tweeted tracklisting for this last night, it did go out on air, honest!

  • #195 Too Many Tributes (17th May 2020)

    This week sees the return of both of us to our respective studios to bring 2 hours of (quality) entertainment. This week, it's a bit of a sombre tone as there are lots of tribute tracks to people that are now swirling in the heavens.


    1st set this week is a Little Richard tribute mix as is only fitting. Rest of the show it taken up with old stuff, new stuff and a bunch of other stuff!

  • #194 Steve flies solo! (10th May 2020)

    A rare solo outing for Steve this week as the chores at home meant Paul had to sit this one. Of course, this might mean that you're not into the show as you prefer his picks to Steve's... and that's fine.


    He's picked some stuff from old shows and plenty of stuff that's been kickin' around the "songsToBePlayed" folder. Due to the show being pre-recorded, there's no mention of folks that sadly passed towards the end of the week.


    Don't forget, if you want to get in toouch, hit us up on nighttrain93.2[at]gmail[dot]com or twitter.com/RadioNightTrain on the tweets.

  • #191 feat. Alma's Hour of Power! (19th Apr 2020)

    We were kind temped to upload this before the show had even gone out. The concern was that it was break the space-time continuum. The downside of that woud be no more late night radio shows!


    Anyway, the new format rolls on. 2 blokes recording an hour of music in their spare rooms.


    This week, hour 1 is (sorta) picked by The Long Suffering Alma. If you enjoy the show, make sure you tell her the tunes were good.


    Hour 2 picked by Paul so it's the usual high standard.
