JAZZYGB1
Airs every month
Tubeway Tracks is the monthly show by JazzyGB1. Passionate about music from a young age he has written & recorded his own material for nearly 25 years.
Heavily influenced by the futuristic sounds of the late 70s & early 80s, his love of analogue synths is immediately apparent in both his own music (www.myspace.com/jazzygb1) and his podcasts. Even the name of his show Tubeway Tracks is somewhat of a homage to his musical hero and inspiration Gary Numan and features a mix of classic synth tracks from the likes of Numan, Depeche Mode, Ultravox & the Human League, as well as many forgotten gems & one hit wonders from the the past.
There is a twist of classic punk from the likes of the Clash, Carter USM, Stranglers, Killing Joke and others in there too.
JazzyGB1 has always had a good ear for music regardless of Genre, so don’t be surprised to hear movie soundtracks or music from the likes of The Levellers, Elbow or The Divine Comedy among many others in his shows.
Contemporary artists such as Goldfrapp, Little Boots, IAMX and tracks by unsigned & independent artists also feature, so past present or future, there is something for everyone on Tubeway Tracks.
GARY CEE
Airs every week
The Complex is hosted by Gary Cee, a Numan fan since 1979 and Full Time DJ. The show is 90 Minutes long and available for download every week. It focuses on Electronic Music from the Past, Present & Future and also includes Requests, Fan Remixes & Cover Versions.
Gary also records his own music under the name GCEE.
RIPTORN
Airs every month
DJ Riptorn is passionate about music. Not the dull mass fed record company/TV Show bilge that is shoved down our throats every day and not what the NME/media tell us what to listen too either.
“I don’t care about what’s fashionable, just what’s good”. Riptorn only plays quality music!
Riptorn is not a DJ and has never been in a band of any note. He’s just playing a wide range of music that he enjoys, with a bias towards Numan/Tubeway Army.
New bands, forgotten bands and artists you may never have heard of before can be found here too.
The main show is out at the beginning of every month and features a new song of the month and 4 tracks from a classic alternative album.
He’ll also be uploading P.O.D.Receiver Specials mid month which will focus on one specific genre of music.
If you are in a band and want Riptorn to give you airtime or if you want a request, please email riptornpodreceiver at googlemail.com
SHAMM68
Airs every week
Shamm68 is a raw recruit to the podcast world who wishes to share his music with like-minded listeners.
His passion for music began at the age of 10 when Gary Numan’s ‘Cars’ appeared on TOTP's.
He put down his colouring pencils and was totally mesmerised
No surprise then to find him influenced by Gary Numan, John Foxx,Mesh and Depeche Mode and the like in the electronic genre and Sex pistols and Undertones in the punk genre.
Other influences include Cocteau twins, Simple minds, Japan and Ultravox - in fact practically anything that has a fair bit of synthesiser or a new wave sound floats his boat - so climb aboard!
Listeners will be treated to a mixture of the afore mentioned and more including Industrial, EBM, electro-goth as well as the odd instrumental track too.
A frustrated synthesiser owner with tons of VSTs who toys around making melodies, Shamm68 makes the odd noise but claims he ‘hasnt a clue’ how to create a song! :(
An avid hater of "Radio music" Electric Principles promises something a little different for everyone!!!!
