Peeps from near and far – rejoice as the new radio hour is upon us! The second show of 2014 and we do it proper! We do it jazzy!

Jazz is the signature sound of the 158th show. We bring you tracks fresh as spring water alongside jams a good few years old but still sounding sweet as honey. That’s the thing with good music – it never gets old. Or in fact, some of the tracks we play get better over time. Just like a bottle of delicious wine.

We have quite a few features on the show. We are taking a closer look at three compilation albums – Nite Grooves has released a truly amazing “Abstract Afro Vibes” with tracks released in the past two decades. We’re also taking a closer look on Gotta Keep Faith compilation “Afro Latin House” which celebrates 9 years of the Italian label.

And to celebrate five years of Deeper Shades Recordings we have a compilation put together by the labels very own Lars Behrenroth.

All of these compilations carry a touch of jazz which is the main focus of the show.

This month we’re presenting the new kind of chart – The Fantastic Four. For every month each of us pick two tracks to be featured throughout the month and more. The featured tracks for the month of January are Shur-I-Kan “Jazz Club”, Frankfurt Soul Project “You And I”, Magic Number “Coming Back To Me” and Jamie Lewis, Michelle Weeks, Natasha Watts, Marc Evans “Respect”. Read more about the fantastic four from our feature article.

So it’s time to jump to the business. Hit that play button and enjoy another fine show put together by yours truly!
