Leeds Student Radio

A friend prompted me to apply to host a show on Leeds Student Radio at www.lsrfm.com - and thus Contemporary Beats Retreat was born! I also make the occasional appearance on said friend's show, RPM Presents: The Hip-Hop, Funk and Soul show, plus my friends and I host Crouching Album, Hidden Owner. You can listen to some podcasts and view tracklists below - I'll be updating this page as I need to.
