Backbeat is a one-hour radio show featuring vintage popular music. It’s not about nostalgia. It’s a fun and lively exploration of our shared music history with an emphasis on artists and records that have been underrated, forgotten or just ignored over the years.
We also play new music from artists who understand and honour that history
Local deep cuts. Every Friday from 2 to 3pm hear whole albums from (mostly) Winnipeg artists and bands.
Join your host, Rico, for a musical ride across soca, calypso, reggae, dancehall, world beat, rap, soul and funk. It’ll start your day up right!
Quadrafunk is Winnipeg’s longest running radio DJ mix show. Now entering its 12th year, the show continues to evolve.
Bass-heavy music from the UK and around the world including nu-jungle, UK garage, bass and techno.
I guess you could say my show is my own personal search – through music – in the middle of the night every Monday. So join me and I’ll bring you an out-of-the-ordinary mix of blues, soul, rock, funk, Americana, bluegrass and whatever else it takes to shake the work blues.
Starting in 1998 The Motherland Influence continues to bring you African, Latin & Caribbean music from wherever we can find it. Nigeria to Colombia to Haiti to Europe to USA. Soukous, Calypso, Rai, Reggae, Afrobeat, Salsa, Cumbia, Chaabi, the list goes on. We do it because it needs to be heard and we love it. We think you will too.
Trip Hop with a little sprinkle of Reggae Metal chaos at the end.
Anytime I’ve called in and talked to any number of your DJs, they’ve always been very receptive and informative.
