This Island Earth
Sunday November 20th, 2016 with PeterB
THANK YOU!!! For donating during CKCU's Funding Drive 2016, and keeping community radio alive. Loads of new stuff today, from all over the map. And lots less yacking too.
First and foremost, A HUGE THANK YOU to all those heros that donated to CKCU during our 2016 Funding Drive!! You are amazing! It is not too late...
Today's adventure features loads of new stuff, plenty of time in Eastern Europe, Africa, Jazziness, Dubby-stuff. And points in between. Mostly just lots of long sets, and long tracks. Best of all, less yacking, and no begging. How we like it!
Please do hit us up on the Interactive Thingy (over there ==>). We'd love to hear from y'all.
