Phonic FM – Exeter's sound alternative

My Little Packets of Three

With Stuart Smith. Playing three songs in a row: sometimes it’s all new music, sometimes all 60s and 70s. It just depends what music has been inspiring me.

The High Fidelity Radio Show

Nick Burrow and Nigel Lowe, old friends from Exmouth Comprehensive Sixth Form days (1977–now), each create a playlist (Nick Hornby style) to share with our audience.

The Way of Things

Presented by John Tron Davidson, Dragon and The Spring. The Way of Things shares all the records that we’ve found, been told about, and loved.

Accessibility Matters

Andrew Barge, Chair of Trustees at Living Options Devon, will be talking all things accessibility. Living Options is a user-led disability charity offering a range of services to deaf people and the disabled community in the county of Devon.

Emergent Unsigned Radio Show

Presented by Jason Maddocks. Playing Unknown, Unsigned and Emerging artists from around the world.

Let’s Have a Party

Brought to you by Gordon. There are only two types of music, good and bad, I play the good kind.

Morgan Collins

Morgan Collins presents themed shows drawn from a wide range of music – rock, jazz, country, indie, ambient, chamber, and trip hop.

Onionheart Radio + Track 1, Side 1

With Michael Harvey. A celebration of the album. Tracks from albums old and new with occasional guest co-hosts.

Gerry Lyseight

A 21st century version of the Planet Mambo shows I used to present at BBC London/GLR. All kinds of everything including Latin, African, jazz, electronica, folk, reggae, esoteric rock…

The Morning After

Will & McLeod play a mix of well-known and obscure funk, dance, indie, soul, ‘hits’ and even jazz, sprinkled with chat about their (often contrasting) music playlists.

i-play u-play with Rob and Paul

Two music lovers playing a highly curated, eclectic mix of tracks spanning decades and genres. Wide ranging conversation and opinions between some fantastic songs..

Phonic Jukebox

Non-stop music of every genre from our vast music library. It’s a musical lucky dip, all carefully selected by Phonic FM members.

The Decades Show

With Christian Brook. The Decades Show aims to find music from across the past ten decades that will appeal to anyone who was into the alternative scene in the 80s – basically anything from the 1910s to yesterday!

St David’s Hillbillies

DJ Peachy and guests play lots of new music from Exeter and beyond. Touring acts and up-and-coming locals with a Q&A session on the phone when we can’t get someone in to the studio.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly Show

The Electric Tortoise and Strangle Jim present a weekly instalment of the weird and wonderful, sometimes horrifying (but never boring) music of almost every variety known or unknown!

Mind The Gap

We are Rob and Tom. Mind the Gap is a show which could include pretty much anything and everything. We would like to believe that if we are having fun then hopefully you will too!

Sounds from the Fun Bus

Just me (Kerrie), with some great tunes, the occasional guest and the odd bit of live music. From blues to punk, country to dark house, classical to k-pop, I’ll be sharing some of the sounds I like and love.

Roots and Shoots

Presented alternately by Martin Henning and Bully. We play folk and roots related/derived music from all over the world and just down the road, with guests and live music in the studio.

The Ricochet

With James, but anyone else who turns up is welcome. Massive music nerd with 3 different opinions on every song that gets played. Bring a bottle.

Marian’s mix

I play popular tracks from the 50s to the present day, with some classical and country. I’d like people to feel happy and able to sing along – and feel they want to hear the next track.

Ewan’s Mixed Bag

With Ewan James. Playing a diverse mix of tracks that really mean something to me, and maybe generate a bit of curiosity and inspiration for my listeners. I go back and forth in time, from the 60s onwards.

The sounds are rooted in underground indie, psychedelic and alternative rock. Not just things that sound good, but perhaps have interesting songwriting angles, challenge conventions, and have an emotional pull.

Most importantly I’m very keen to help make people happy, or happier, in some way. So my show is hopefully an interactive listener experience – with requests very welcome!”

The Respect Show

Adrian Bull (aka Bully), Paul Giblin, Helen Connole, Tim Price (aka RJ Retsina) and Raj Prashar. The music is an eclectic mix of many styles from all over the world. The show aims to complement the annual Exeter Respect festival and celebrate diversity in the area and in the wider world.

The Eccentric Selection

With Pat Bensberg. Some tunes you know, some you don’t, and some you think ‘what the hell is that?’

The Phoenix Love Radio Show

I’m a recording artist with very wide-ranging musical tastes. I like to dig out lesser-known songs from both under the radar and established artists, with a focus on finely-crafted pop, a sprinkling of classic reggae and folk, and a soupçon of psychedelia and electronica.

The Tuesday Music Mix

Tune in for a different mix of music every week with Paul and Anna. From 90s classics to songs from the movies, there is something for everyone.

The Miscellany Show

Presented by DJ John M. I play a mixture of music and have studio sessions, interviews and spoken word. I talk about the music, chat with guests, and drop in other random general factoids! I play music to soothe and rock, to relax and hype, the unusual and usual.
