Bangkok Community Radio: live radio from Bangkok

Hooold...

Dusting off the needle…

Bangkok, Thailand

Bangkok Community Radio

Homegrown, and staying that way.

Bangkok's underground, from dub to minimal techno.

It started in July 2021 as a lockdown experiment that only went out on Saturdays, run by a collective of Bangkok labels and promoters — More Rice, Boiled Wonderland, Transport, Summer Sound, Supermodified — pooling their rosters into one schedule. Since October 2023 it has worked out of a second-floor room above the Entertainment Project record shop on Charoen Krung, which doubles as somewhere to gather; the network around it now runs to more than ninety residents.

Three strands run every day — Breakfast, After Hours and Late Night — with Clubnight and BCR International carrying visitors, Transformative Thai DJs and Female Thursdays reserving hours on purpose, and a standing slot titled Interesting, IDM and Eclectic. Bradley Zero, Danilo Plessow and Takuya Nakamura have all passed through, and the station takes stages at Wonderfruit.
