Got rather self-indulgent today, but hey, that's the beauty of having your own show. We played some Cat Stevens, Pentangle, Steve Hillage, even some Banarama. Yet still room for the new stuff from the likes of Amon Tobin and Player One.
Download the show HERE MP3 (Sorry folks due a technical hitch the first track is missing)
Hope you liked it....if we're back next week, we'll play more good stuff. It's what we do.

That was so good, we got wood!
A three-way bizarre Me trangle this week, as MeTom, MeRobin and MePaul bounced about the starship throwing tunes at each other like some kind of weird custard pie fight. Ghosts, I Like Trains, Nicole Willis, Dirty Disco Youth - everything and everyone somehow crammed into a two hour big long kind of tasty filled baguette shaped radio programme.
We like, u like and Brno likes, it seems - we're currently in the top 3 on the radiostudent chart...so - set phasers to spam:
If you wanna show your support, go to www.radiostudent107.cz and vote for us in the little poll on the left. If you want. No pressure, we'll still luv yers whatever.
Next week, another show. With bells on.

Lovely?!
Yet again, MePaul was unable to be with us today. He has had a real tough time of lately, trying to buy the above pictured car - or one very like it. Hopefully he'll be back next week, with his bumper christmas bag of music.
Today's show, once again with MeTom at the pilot's controls was a lot of fun. Some of our favourites this week, Of Montreal, The Black and White Years, Dennis Wilson, The Burt Bacharak Fight Club and many more - check out the playlist with MP3 links here
Thanks and catch you next week, when once again the DIY Chart Show, blasts off on a mission through interspace.

Flabby Spaceship
Once a joke holiday destination for mothers-in-law, now a 19 year-old boy from New York making cracking tunes based on the instrumentation of Eastern Europe's minorities. That's the kind of global change you only get on the DIY Chart Show. What once was a sprawling metropolis in the grib of sectarian violence is now a happy-go-lucky singing chap from New York who goes by the name of Beirut (pictured above).
This was guest presenter MeTom's tip for 2007 - while Navigator MeRobin was singing the virtues of malcolm middleton and the tussle.
This week's show also featured a wee retrospective autopsy on what went right musically for who last last year. 2006 was for most of us dominated by the resurgence of Baile Funk, the high quality soulful electro warblings of the the Junior Boys and The Knife and swathes upon swathes of 17year old indie bands like the Artic Monkeys (TM) - but different.
Anyway - see what you make of it. You can stream the SHOW HERE - for a short while. (apologies for the recording at the beginning it does improve)

Happy New Year
Happy New Year? Uncertain New Year more like!At the moment we are unsure about Radio Student's plans for the DIY Chart Show, a change of management has made our continuation on this frequency less likely, although they have told us that we will continue at least til the end of January.
Anyway we're back after our christmas holidays, and after a rather spectacular Hogmanay party at Brno's fantastic Fleda (hopefully we'll have some pictures to show you soon - lol!).
So the first show will be on the 8th of January at 12 noon CET and we're excited about the new show, because amongst other things there is a real swathe, a veritable cornucopia, an authentic smorgasbord of new releases this month - leading many experts* to suggest that January 2007 will see more quality releases than all of 2006!!!
Anyway hope to see yous all v. soon - well next Sunday in fact.
*I made this fact up.
