The Night Train®

Praise-be! It’s another proper show this week. Not Steve messin’ around with decks and tings. This week there is new music, a couple of doubles, updates of our adventures over the last two weeks and generally a lot of chat about radio on other networks.

Morning all! Steve here. Sometimes, if you want something done properly you've got to do it yourself. This show proves that sometimes the sayings aren't accurate. Due to reasons, I had to do this show on my own. This meant that the mixing isn't the best and the tune selection is all over the place. Still, I had fun, even if you can't hear me on the mic. In my defence, it was loud enough in the stu...

Back in a red-hot studio to deliver 2hrs of near-perfect Community Radio. You'll also be pleased to know that we found our last remaining vibes-light. It makes all the difference to the show, we think you'll agree. Plenty of great chat in this one and a bit of new music. As always, don't forget to get in touch to ask for request or shout-out at; nighttrain93.2[at]gmail[dot]com or  https://www...

25(ish)years ago, an album was released. 25ish years later, two middle-aged men on community radio dedicate a whole two hours to it. For 2 hours we’ve picked songs from the album, influences, stuff from mixes, stuff from interviews and stuff from related bands. All interspersed by some chat and “insight” on “Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space” by Spiritualized®. To experience the show l...

So, in classic TNT tradition, the show is a shambles. This week, the plan was to play records as it takes less prep. Well, there were problems before we even started but somehow we managed to pull together a decent show. The music, not the chat. At times you won’t be able to hear Paul. Some might call that a blessing. The TL;DR of the show is. Paul’s records are for sale, Steve’s are not. If you l...

Rejoice! We managed to drag ourselves into the studio for an actual, honest-to-goodness radio show. Press play and listen to why we’ve missed the last two weeks of shows. As you’d expect, the music is amazing but the links are rusty. Will next week be better? Perhaps. Tune in to find out. If you like what you hear, join us live (almost) every Sunday 9pm-11pm on SheffieldLive! 93.2fm, via the TuneI...

To misquote Rakim... "It's been a long time, we shouldn't have left you without a dope show to step to". We've been off the last two weeks hanging out in various fields so there hasn't been a show. This will be a problem to the Listen Again Crew that rely on our show to help them though the week. We're hopefully back on the air this Sunday but to tide you over, Steve has made this mix of Accordion...

So this show almost didn't happen. Paul has got Jumper's Knee so couldn't get into the studio. Steve could get into the studio and was gonna spin some tunes on the CDJs. That didn't happen due to trademark technical difficulties so instead, he took a gamble and just went solo. We're not on air for the next two weeks so it felt like we HAD to leave you with something! Get in touch with requests, re...

Howdy folks. It's been a while. We weren't on air last week due to reasons but we're certainly back now. This week is a fine sonic adventure with a sweet mix in hour 2 of '06 dubstep wax. If you like what you hear, join us live (almost) every Sunday 9pm-11pm on SheffieldLive! 93.2fm, via the TuneIn Radio App or  www.sheffieldlive.org Get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix i...

So, so what'cha, what'cha, what'cha want? If it’s 3 guys talking triple trouble about an album released 30 years ago, press play, free your mind, it's time for good times. This week, we welcome aboard our first ever guest-host. It’s Coop from Mondo Bizarro. We’ve invited him on as a Beastie Boys expert to discuss Check Your Head, the album released 30 years ago. As you’d expect from a show we make...

Welcome aboard show #275. Turn back all ye that do not enjoy music that is somewhat “challenging”. You have been warned. We will not be accepting negative feedback on this show. If you don’t like it… just remember that “Music’s Not for Everyone”.

Someone mentioned on Twitter that all music from 1996 was bad. We don't think they meant it literally but we took it upon ourselves to shine a light on the good stuff that was released that year. There was loads to chose from, so many that we had to tweet out the ones we couldn't squeeze in! Not sure what else we waffled about. If there's something we said that you're interested in, let us know......

For show 104 Steve had the inspired idea of doing a show that had no beats. This was tricky as nobody really wants to hear 120 minutes of drones and synths. Luckily, we were able to cobble together two hours of different styles of music to keep it f-f-fresh. On the night, the broadcast was full of technical problems; broken mics, dodgy faders, creaky chairs, bad timings and two despondent presente...

Steve here… in a surprise to everyone, this week is a solo show! NGL, was all ready to take a(nother) week off but we needed to keep the train rollin’! Very glad I decided to do the show as the guest-mix is absolute FIRE! An all-wax-psych-fuzz-freak-out from Black Wax Solution. You can catch him DJing around the place, co-hosting the excellent music podcast " What Goes Around Podcast " and general...

Today has been a rollercoaster. We thought the 1st half of the show had been lost in the sands of time but Gregg, the IT Don at Sheffield Live, managed to delve into the mainframe and save it. We had thought that hour two contained some of our best live radio work for a while but perhaps that was only the case when the show was lost. Now we’re not so sure. What isn't in doubt is there is stellar m...

Afternoon all. Hope you're all well, had a good weekend. Here's the show from last night. After a couple of weeks without us, the demand for our unique style on the mic should be high. This week we play some records that don't really go well together and then some records that go really well together. In the bits in-between, we talk about our recent (mis)adventures and a bit about the tunes. As al...

We didn't do a show today... well, we kinda did. We re-used and old show without us waffling over it. Some might say that's an improvement. Instead of uploading it, we're giving you our "Drunk on 45s Mix" from a few weeks ago. Folks seemed to like it so it only seems right we give it to you to enjoy at your leisure. It's perfect for when you're entertaining. We'll hopefully be back next week with...

WARNING - This show is uploaded at a high bitrate. It means the file is bigger than normal, will sound better but will tan your data. When news broke that Mark Lanegan had passed, we started thinking about our favourite picks. Steve would be the first to admit that he's more of a casual fan so this really is the doing of Paul. There will no doubt be things/collabs/releases that we've missed but ho...

In many ways, this show is a good snapshot of the show in general... an in-joke that somehow or another, made it onto the airwaves. We've promised it for a while and here it is... our ROY SPECIAL! Enjoy the sounds of two presenters slowly losing their minds to the soundtrack of songs by, featuring, produced or about Roys. What is odd is that we managed to fill 2hrs with some varied music. What we...

The thing with live radio is, it's live. This means that there are quite often mistakes. Now, these usually don't happen the instant the show starts. That's a new one for us. One we get going, it's business as usual. The usual high standard of radio that you've come to know and love. This week's show has a nice blend of styles and genres for you to get stuck into. If there's nothing in here that y...

2nd week back in the studio and the thin veneer of professionalism has well and truly fallen off. No guest mix or theme this week, just two guys, on the radio, playing songs they like. Some stalwarts of the show are in there though... - A scratchy 78 - Recommendation of another show - mis-remembered trivia - jarring transitions between genres - birthday shout-out to someone that doesn't listen to...

We can't quite believe it either, after quite the wait this is it.... the big return to the studio! Has it really been almost 2 years? Will we still be able to deliver the goods on the air? Will anyone call the studio to claim the prize? All these questions and more will be answered in the show. Not only is the show packed to the gills with great music, we decided to give ourselves a bit of a trea...

Every now and again, we manage to make a show that's both great (we remember to play new music) and terrible (missed queues, presenters not paying attention). Don't let that put you off, "fans" of the show will say that's what's best about the show. You can decide for yourself by pressing play and enjoying 117 minutes of top-draw community radio. As always, don't forget to get in touch to ask for...

This show has a bunch of different styles of music, placed next to each other in a way that almost makes sense. There's a set that goes around the world, there's one which you might send you to sleep and there's one that starts with some early 90s jungle.
