Dead Air

Col and Mike Under the guise of Mort the Squirrel-Its all Electronica or is that someone with an angle grinder?

Mind The Gap

Downstream

Presented by Stuart Crewes, Creative Director of Art Work Exeter and former Co-Producer of the Culture & Review Programme here on Phonic, also wrangler of pixels and paper for Inky Fingers Workshop and spinner of discs as DJ Deadly Marvin (presenting SHAKE! on the 5th Sunday of the month, when there is one…)

Morgan Collins

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

The Last Transmission

Mark and Steve play the best new music, though we can’t resist throwing in some classic oldies. We like to have local musicians come into the studio to play live, and speak to national and international acts via the wonders of the telephone.

IT’S YA GAL AL

Hi ya nice to meet ya! Im your host Alice Szypillo and the music I share spans all genres and continents playing tracks that move me, rare grooves that allure me and tracks that represent the extensive culture and history of the world. I weave in people’s stories and have guest appearances and something for all ears. 

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.

Anything Goes

Presented by Bully, playing anything from the history of recorded music, where the only limitation is taste. There maybe a punk-ish bias but you’ll still hear anything from Klaus Nomi to Harry Partch and Robert Johnson to Blurt.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly Show

A weekly instalment of the weird and wonderful, sometimes horrifying (but never boring) music of almost every variety known or unknown!

The Joe Crow Show.

The Joe Crow Show, with me presents a wide spectrum of tunes – from the late 60’s to the present day – some rock, pop, folk-rock, britpop, electronica and some contemporary-classical – and with a ‘talky bit’ here and there, there is something for everyone!

Tommy S Sunday Show

Join Tommy S on a musical journey through the month with the Sunday Show, showcasing a blend of favourite hits and cutting-edge tracks, along with special guests and readings.

Blabber & Smoke

Brought to you by Gordon.

From a Basement on the Hill

Hi, Im James Hudson and I will be playing anything from Robert Johnson to Aphex Twin. I’m going to talk about the music I love, how I found it, the story behind the music and what it means to me. I want my audience to be everyone, anyone who loves great music. I want to make a connection with people through music and maybe introduce them to a song that they haven’t experienced before. I want people to be moved, excited and feel a wide range of emotions. I hope people can build memories with me providing the soundtrack.

The Scrambled Cabbage Show

Rufus aka the Cabbage Scrambler takes you on a journey down the auditory rabbit hole, from the sublime to the raucus to the occasionally ridiculous. Expect music from the far flung reaches of space and time, features on extremely niche subjects and occasional weather reports with Michael Flatfish. A show for anyone open to the idea of getting their cabbage scrambled.

The Lost Chord

There’s no plan, there’s no framework, there are no limits. Who knows, they might even rediscover…The Lost Chord.

Every Now And Then

Various musics with Matthew, every now and then, a bit of skateboarding, surf or bike chat, sometimes Devon related, sometimes not.

Ungrateful Colonist Radio Hour

Presented by Tim Myers, a self-described music nerd and recent American arrival in the UK. On the show, Tim details an American’s experience in the UK and exorcises his immigrant homesickness with deep explorations of the music of various American scenes and other current and former members of the commonwealth. With a characteristically punk rock and DIY attitude, Tim channels the American settlers who came before him, creating a soundtrack for those livid over stamp taxes, ready to dump imported tea into harbors.

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.

Anti-Telly Time

With Chee. The main objective of Anti-Telly Time is to give listeners a giggle and a smile. There’s music from local bands through to obscure sounds, and music that makes you dance against your will. Sometimes spoken-word and other non-music delights will pop up, with guests on occasion. It’s a party and you’re invited.

The Coming

Greg Gould (the Ghoulish Groover) presents breakbeats and EDM. It’s for anyone who loves music. I’d like to captivate my audience.

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!

White Russian for Breakfast

I present an eclectic mix of music and comment, often with a guest or two. I will also play new electronic music from local producers. I’m a prominent member of the relatively new Exeter House & Techno community, and will draw attention to news and events relating to that.

The Sunday Scribble

Presented by Sketch and Rhod. We cover punk, post-punk, indie, industrial, electronic, experimental, folk, country, jazz, soundtracks – in fact if we like it, we play it.

2 Hours 2 Midnight

Luke and Jonny play dank, obscure, killer sounds from black metal & hardcore to ambient & dungeon synth. One to wind up or down to midnight depending on the month.

Film On Phonic

In between playing big beats, banging tunes and beautiful serenades we deliver the latest film-world goods in the form of news and reviews, with further gabble about tv series, video games and more.

Niches and Nuances

Presented by Zoe Elston, Niches and Nuances explores musical sub-genres from around the world with interluding interviews with local people about places, hobbies and music in and around Exeter. This is a show for the curious; join Zoe to explore new music and stories from Devon and beyond that exist on the fringes of the mainstream and spark your intrigue in new and exciting ways.

Just a Couple Beers

Hailing from the Great Plains’ state of Nebraska in the US, I bring a unique mix of genres to the table (rock, punk, soul, reggae, country, blues, jazz, world, hip hop). Do I have a favourite? They’re all my favourite, depending on my mood! I dj’d at venues in Switzerland and volunteered at KEXP in Seattle. I love music & the power it has to connect us. Just a couple beers is an innocent enough beginning to many a memorable shenanigan – if you don’t mind a bit of irreverence & goofiness along the way!

Bats in the Belfry

A traveller linguist, singer/songwriter, philosopher and photographer from Transylvania. Playing music that heals the soul and makes one a bit more aware about mental health issues. All this seasoned with friendly interviews with local artists regardless of how known or unknown they are. Live acoustic sessions. Live video streaming. I wish to make you feel connected, elevated and more aware.
