Catching up .....

Greetings and the Best of the Season to y'all

This is just a short post today as I have got behind on here! See the updated Radio page with the full details of guests in THE OUTERGLOBE on Resonance 104.4fm DAB and Resonancefm.com . And I did a page to detail some of the artists I have worked with who I am not working with currently as I draw my horns in somewhat.  I have also updated the Promised information in The Outerglobe   page as well so it has all that I mentioned on the December 21st 2017 show as a resource. Not the playlist - I will add that anon.  Be sure to go right through this post as there is an important notice about Resonance 104.4 FM lower down - you can make a difference! 


Another UP!!D8 coming very soon. UP!!


Just a quick note about our SISTERS OF REGGAE Dance on SATURDAY December 30th - the last Saturday of the month as ever and this one is just before New Years  Eve and will be a scorcher!

Here's the Facebook Page

AND

Please note that Resonance FM will run its Marathon Fundraiser in the first week of February 2018 to raise vital £££s - hopefully 1000s of £££s - as this is a major income source for us and will enable some key developments including a new studio base later in the year to happen. Please think about what you might donate for auction - maybe record label catalogue, Studio time. concert series tickets. previews, skll shares, outstanding experiences ... Message me with your ideas

Friday 1 December 2017

last day of November on to crisp December! Radio playlist/ exciting dj and band news .....

Greetings - crisp December opens UP!!

Radio vibes go from strength to strength - this week's edition of The Outerglobe was highlighted on the  front page of www.resonancefm.com today (also goes out on 104.4fm /DAB in London) on  30th November 2017 .

The focus is on Grenfell Tower as it says with my guests Niles Hailstones (Ras Asheber) of Westway 23 / One Voice Committee actions groups in North Kensington, Angie and Toyin from Grenfell Media Watch, Artist Rita Ruggeri and South London events manager Chetna Capacee.

The show is  repeated on Saturday 2nd December 2017 at 3.30pm as always. And on mixcloud www.mixcloud.com/resonance/outerglobe-30th-november-2017     With  analysis, critique, passion and positive possibilities too. Above all  it's a tribute to the community resilience and support and to the survivors of the fire on June 14th 2017 and those displaced still struggling and hoping six months  on (almost)


I'll list what we played and again give links to tracks my guests selected that with so  much to say we didn't get to play all of them 

It's a wonderful  thing  Bright side - Gotta Scatta sampling of Maya Angelou on uplifting housy base; Fatima Zehafa -  Hebibet Ghalbi ; Martin Campbell - Wicked Rule ; Bob Marley & The Wailers So Much Things to Say + Guiltiness from Exodus (in the background); Gil Scott Heron & Brian Jackson Rivers of my fathers from Winter in America; Donny Hathaway - What's Going On (Live); Afrikan Revolution - Crossroads from Vibes and Pressure compilation Vol 1
