It's that time of the year again, that time when (mostly North American) people celebrate ghosts, werewolves and the rest of a bestiary popularized by Hollywood productions. From time to time, I love a little fright, especially when it comes from eerie melodies and spooky musical atmospheres. That's why I summoned Creepy Pasta legend Ben…Lire la suite NTS SHOWS – NOVEMBER 2019 W/ PAM & BEN DROWNED

NTS SHOWS – OCTOBER 2019 W/ PAM & DJ F16 FALCON
Not only is DJ F16 a great producer, he is also a DJ. Hence the name, yes. The two of us deliver a two hour-long broad exploration of "Dub", from its Jamaican origins to its most leftfield artefacts. https://www.mixcloud.com/NTSRadio/okonkole-y-trompa-9th-october-2019/ TRACKLIST : BBC 4 - Reggae Britannia (Extract) SNARES - Electric Funeral DJ F16 FALCON - Family Grocery Haul TENASTELIN, TNT…Lire la suite NTS SHOWS – OCTOBER 2019 W/ PAM & DJ F16 FALCON

ENTRY#7 : WHAT’S THE WEATHER REPORT LIKE?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8oS2D9MOhI&t=75s Ouverture - Rencontre From Ouverture - Rencontre Self-released, 1985, France I read in a newspaper that, according to some recent studies, no matter what's the weather like, it's always French people's favourite topic of conversation - and global warming is probably making it even worse... What these studies are missing, in my opinion, is…Lire la suite ENTRY#7 : WHAT’S THE WEATHER REPORT LIKE?
NTS SHOWS – FEBRUARY 2019 W/ Fry Ry & Satoshi

NTS SHOWS – DECEMBER 2018 W/ PAM & Satoshi
For our latest show of the year we went from "sad ballads" favorites to some shinning dance classics via Kate Bush most leftfield moments and Robert Palmer. And I'm pretty happy with how it went !

NTS SHOWS – NOVEMBER 2018 W/ PAM & Satoshi
This month show is a classic "one hour each" split between PAM & Satoshi. The first hour features material from Agnès Varda's 1977 wonderful "L'Une Chante, L'Autre Pas", hence the visual. Highly recommended movie.

NTS SHOWS – SEPTEMBER 2018 W/ PAM & Satoshi
September : end of Summer, beginning of Autumn... I think this show operates that Season switch with some proper Balearic Chansons by the likes of Laurent Voulzy or the song that inspired Joe Dassin's L'Été Indien (Indian Summer) turning into the sad melodies of Günther Beckers or O Yuki Conjugate...
