Paranoise Radio: live radio from Thessaloniki

Hooold...

Dusting off the needle…

Paranoise Radio

Season seventeen, still DIY.

DIY radio from Thessaloniki, residents scattered wide.

A collective of DJs, producers and people who just like records has been putting out daily shows from Thessaloniki since 2008, running one season after another. The residents take monthly or fortnightly slots and are scattered well past the city — Athens, Volos, Xanthi, Chania and Sitia, then on to Cologne, Hamburg, Manchester, Malmö, Barcelona, Ghent, Copenhagen and London. Since 2021 the station has also been releasing its residents' own productions, as the PRNS compilations.

Kappa hosts Other Galactic Funk, Jahnabet runs Irie Trip, Flynt takes the late slot for Electric Sheep, E.H. sends Soundsystem Beats & Pieces over from Barcelona, and the Female:Pressure network has an hour once a month. Between the shows the rotation stretches from rolling drum and bass to brittle post-punk guitars, with dub and deep funk filling the gaps.
