Chris Coco’s weekly radio broadcast. An eclectic selection of brilliant new music starting with house and moving on to electronica, downtempo, acoustic and all sorts of other styles loosely connected to dance and electronic music. Let tastemaker Chris Coco guide you through his selection of the week’s best new music. This episode we celebrate one year of the MelodicaRecordings record label with some tunes from the new compilation Come In We’re Melodica, then go all wobbly and Balearic, because it’s winter here, and dark, and cold and we need a little sunshine music. So that’s mellow, super mellow, and warm and toasty.

Let tastemaker Chris Coco guide you through his selection of the week’s best new music. This episode is a bit like going out without going out – we start in the club, wander into the back room, then out into the garden, down to the beach, then end up back in the club, very late at night, so that’s house, post dubstep, folk, balearic, and after hours, sort of in that order.

Let tastemaker Chris Coco guide you through his selection of the week’s best new music. This episode we set off, intrepid sonic explorers, in search of the source of the illusive Balearic River. We start in the past, 1988 to be precise, before speeding into space and the future for our tune of the week. Of course you know how the story ends, no real conclusion, but we can all enjoy a fine hour of music on the way. It’s all about the journey you see.
