Each month, I produce a Funky House radio show called Platform Six. You can find this show on HouseMusicPodcasts but now I am also expanding over to Digitally Imported FM (di.fm) for a prime-time Saturday 9pm slot.
di.fm is an online free-to-listen radio station eaturing world renowned artists and DJs across a wealth of various musical genres. Current DJs that play on di.fm include DJ Misjah, Carl Cox, Above & Beyond, Matt Darey, Bassmonkeys, Anna Kiss, One Phat DJ and now… me too!
Expect to hear some of the best upfront funky house music hand picked and mixed for your audio pleasure. Follow this link for more info: http://www.di.fm/calendar/event.php?event=17987

Here are a couple of dates for your diaries over the next few days as its a bit of an action packed bank holiday weekend.
First of all, get yourself over to Platform Six where you can download the latest episode of my fortnightly radio show. Special guest mix this week from none other than Electro house DJ Piqué !!!! As always, the special guest mix is sandwiched between two very phat choice slices of hand cut funky house mixed by myself. Its a great show that also includes one of the latest tracks from Shola Ama and a bumpin’ cut from Crimes Against Disco!
Now on to the live events… Kicking off with TONIGHT. Yes yes, tonight you can catch myself on the decks up at the always funky, Funky End bar in Aldershot alongside the hairless wonder that is Tom Upton closely followed by the lanky legend Mark Masters. Free entry all night with music pumping out from 9pm until late.
If you haven’t got your fill of fresh upfront Funky House tunes by then, you can continue the party TOMORROW NIGHT over at the HaHa bar in Guildford. Usual suspects of Tom Upton and Mark Masters will be in control of your dancefloor, plus I will be there too to spin a couple of tunes. Once again, it’s free entry all night so to be fair you have no excuses not to turn up. Saturday will be a good one as I plan to have a couple of beers and dance around like a lemon.
Hope to see you there! Keep it funky.

Well, nearly. I was yesterday. But now I’m number 2 number 4. Which isn’t bad.
I am talking about my Platform Six Radio Show on Lifted Radio. Lifted publish charts for which shows have the most downloads each day and yesterday I was riding in at number one. That’s brilliant, I can’t believe it.
I just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone that tunes in every fortnight on Thursday afternoons at 4pm to make this show one of the most listened to shows on the station.
And it’s no mean feat either. I’m up against big name giants (and some of my funky house heroes) such as Bassmonkeys, Mark Masters, One Phat DJ and Soulshaker.
Yesterday, show 11 was at number one, today that’s dropped to number 5, but one of my other shows has re-entered the chart at number 2.
I’m glad so many people are enjoying the show. If you have not heard the radio show yet, why not check out a quick site I put together dedicated to my funky house radio show over at platform-six.co.uk. You can download my mixes straight from the website and have your own little party in your living room (smoke machine and disco ball not included).
Thank you, thank you thank you

Platform Six Show #11
Apr092009
Show #5 of my funky house radio show Platform Six is now archived and ready for you to listen. This week, I feature a special DJ guest mix by DJ Alex Lee from the Good Groove.
As usual it’s a funky blend of old and new with a breakbeat style theme to the first half. I also get first play of the latest track from Jamie Wamie which is another beautiful piece from this talented producer.
Check out the archived show over at SSradio or, if you want, you can hear the whole mix go out live today at 4pm GMT on Lifted Radio. Tune in and let me know what you think.

For those that don’t know, Platform Six is my new radio show that is being broadcast to the world via the magical delights of the internet.
Every fortnight you get to hear some classic and upfront funky house tuneage mixed by self. Plus you also get to hear me jabber on about pointless crap too.
Each show is two hours long and has a featured guest mix tucked within it’s depths. I try to cover a wide spectrum of funky house sub-genres but essentially it’s all just a load of tracks that I like all strung together with a bit of filler in the middle. I like it and I hope you do too.
Now that you know what it’s all about, why not check it out? It is free after all. You can find my bi-monthly Platform Six show on SSradio here (login required):http://ssradiouk.com/shows/platform-six/ or on Lifted Radio here: http://lifted-radio.co.uk/podcasts/?cat=69

You can find my Platform Six show on SSRadio along with full track listing. If you enjoy it, please give it a good rating
