URN After Dark - In the Dark

posted 27.09.10 at 2:29pm 28 comments

URN After Dark DJs came into the After Dark Week One Finale and not only did they tell us about their shows, they also were subjected to a game called 'URN After Dark, Im the Dark'

Here the DJs of every genre had post it notes stuck to their heads with the names of music artists written on them. Here they had to guess what was written on their heads.

They threw aside their shame and it was a very funny evening!

The Pre-Ocean boys have been busy!

Clubfoot Stomp into the 6 Mix

Radio clubfoot went on to win “Best Specialist Music Show” and as if mixing with the hoy paloy of BBC Radio at the awards ceremony wasn't enough (not that I'm jealous of course...much), last Sunday they got their shot at national broadcasting by hitting the “6 Mix” on BBC 6 music.

URN After Dark Superband

It was my last After Dark show on Monday, and after two years of playing the best local music around I couldn’t just leave without doing something memorable, so I decided it was time to put into action a plan I’d had since last year: would it be possible to get a load of local bands in to write and perform a song from scratch over the course of one show?

With the help of producer Alex and his band Frontiers, we managed to compile a supergroup of Nottingham talent with the aim of not only playing out music from the local scene, but directly contributing to it too.
