Bridges 14a Air date : 18th September 2021 @ 1900 hours

The fourteenth edition of Bridges, Radio Northumberland's show dedicated to electronic / alternative music aired at 1900 hours on 18th September 2021.

Tonight's edition of Bridges is a revised version of last weekend's show. The sound quality of two of the tracks was substandard and they have been swapped out. Another track contained a profanity so it too was removed.

Also, sadly, one of the tracks violated our policy on links to videos containing adult material (some boobs). Bridges was always intended to be a family-friendly show - it airs before the watershed - and we don't want to encourage children to go looking up smut on Youtube. They can do that on their own.

• Blancmange, In Your Room
• Glen Alexander, Yukky Fuzzy
• Michael Whalen, Phonic

Bridges 14 Air date : 11th September 2021 @ 1900 hours

The fourteenth edition of Bridges, Radio Northumberland's show dedicated to electronic / alternative music aired at 1900 hours on 11th September 2021.

A slight change of tack tonight. Rather than play a collection of tracks that nobody has heard of and nobody can remember, I decided to play a mix of old favourites and some slightly more commercial pieces. That approach didn’t quite work in that the number of listeners coupled to the interaction via Facebook actually went down... so it’s back to the usual format next week.

Update : a revised version of this show will be broadcast next weekend. The sound quality of two of the tracks was substandard so they'll be swapped out. There's also a profanity and, even though I got as close to the watershed as possible, it's still a bit iffy. Worst of all, one of the tracks (I'm not saying which one) violates our policy on links to videos containing adult material. Bridges was always intended to be a family-friendly show - it airs before the watershed - and we don't want to encourage children to go looking up smut on Youtube. They can do that on their own without my help, thanks.
