Totally Wired Radio: live radio fra London

Veeent...

Tørrer støvet af nålen…

London, United Kingdom

Totally Wired Radio

Sharp suits, sharper records.

Jazz, ska, and rare soul from the mod scene's inner circle.

Totally Wired Radio went on air in April 2019, put together by Acid Jazz — the east London label — and Fred Perry, the mod clothing brand. The name comes from the Totally Wired compilations that label boss Eddie Piller assembled with his original partner Gilles Peterson, a series that built its reputation on refusing to stay in one genre. The station inherited that, and the audience found it unassisted: no marketing budget, roughly 200,000 listeners, heard in seventy per cent of the world's countries.

The DJs are specialists, and the list of what they specialise in runs long — jazz and jazz-funk, ska and 2 Tone, reggae, library music and soundtracks, bruk, gospel, rare R&B, psych, disco. Shows arrive from Peru, Serbia, Iceland, Brazil, Finland and a dozen places besides. Piller's stated aim for all of it is modest enough: to improve lives, one show at a time.
