Radio To Go is a regular podcast featuring music from the West Midlands selected and presented by Robin Valk, a broadcaster and software consultant who, according to his bio, worked for BRMB in the 70s presenting amongst other things their rock show. Which makes perfect sense as his astonishing voice really evokes that era of the gentleman DJ. The music selection is oddly refreshing, going for what a cynic might call MOR, eschewing novelty for solid musicianship in the rock spectrum - not something I hear a lot of online. It’s not my personal cuppa but there’s certainly a place for this and Robin seems very well connected to a vibrant scene in the region. Here’s the RSS feed.
