Samuel Okocha Afro Mix & Darren Potts - 16-12-2009

Hi Listeners,

Pipeline is starting to wind down a bit for Christmas so don't worry there, Pipeline will remain on the air with Tom Mackenzie, Beth Falconer, Peter Andrews and more!

The big news this week is that Samuel Okocha has joined Pipeline Radio's broadcast team from Nigeria, the show is live and you can here it. Samuel has work in radio in Africa and has presented before, he is doing a show here called "The Afro Mix" taking the latest modern trends in African music and world music. I wanted a show like this on the station to show that we think big and wide, you can see how other places interpret our music styles here in the western world.

We would like to Welcome Samuel to our station, and hope he will do many shows to come in the very near future.

Darren Potts has returned to action after being away for some six weeks, Darren has been away on personal issues which he will share with you in this show. Darren I was surprised with because I feel we have a new Darren on air, something has transformed his way of presenting and his style but hey its all for the good I guess as he looks for himself in radio world. Its great to have Darren back on air this week, he now wont be back until the new year but I am sure the next show will be great!

Its always great to have the old team here and Steve Cisco is like me having been here for ages now, Pipeline welcomes back the "Cisco Kid"! his range of music is always great being new and old indie and rock, in his tenth year on Pipeline its great to have him here and he is always well appreciated.

Barry Jones will be back this week with another new show from his Jukebox, the Swinging 60s have never sounded so good but Barry always has something to tell. Look out for him this week.

Richard Fisher should be back with Lock Rock later on this week, a show which is really now started to pick up listeners our Anglo American link serves us well! Richard is hot on rock and new on style so catch him this week for Lock Rock!

Tom Mackenzie show is back later this week, all I can say for now is who knows what will be in it because I don't even now. Peter Andrews is back before the weekend with his "Floating music" Zack Morse the presenter of Rocking America is his biggest fan! So now you know where Zack Morse get's his ideas....

What more can I tell you..... well

Mike Lang should be back in due course along with Mike Cullen, Dutch Guy is away for the time being as he is not very well! so we hope that gets better!

Pipeline has back this week the Queen of Pipeline radio herself Beth Falconer, we a revamped show with a better format. She has put her heart and soul into the station and her show even if she is every fortnight, at the end of the day what she does is unique to the station.

Mike does a new show this week called "The open book", so what does it mean? well format without formatting of a show a music mix which does not always add up.

Tom Mackenzie - Station News- 22-11-2009

Hi Listeners,

Its not always that I can say I have enjoyed a week on the station, but for me this is one of the best weeks we have had music wise. The station is getting more listeners then ever and this is because of our unique format, Pipeline is a station where anything and everything goes no matter what style or genre of music unlike other stations.

This week on the station we saw "The Dutch Man" make his début on the air on Pipeline Radio, its a show that moves more than 1000 miles per hour but is very enjoyable. Pipeline also saw Mike Lang in for an extra show, and its fantastic to have Zack Morse back with Rocking America as its a flagship show on the station.

The Tom Mackenzie show is back with another fantastic mix, some new acts in there this week from the likes of Taylor Swift, Them Crooked Vultures, and Bon Jovi and his new album!

Titus Jennings and Richard Fisher made them comebacks this week with there shows, of course Titus try's to get us a show when he can but we really do enjoy having him back here.

Mike Cullen should be back in a few days time with "Open Book" a show where by he can express himself more, The Geordie boy has had a few technical problems over the past week or so but is fighting to be back on Pipeline.

Next week we hope to have back "Gordon Wedderburn, Steve Cisco, Beth Falconer, and maybe Darren Potts! watch out for that.

For now this is the update, I wanted to get this one done so keep your eyes open.. Peter Andrews is back at the weekend with his unique show.

Catch you soon

Pipeline Man!

Titus Jennings is back at Pipeline this week with a show for the month, yes he is only on every month or when he can do a show as he lives a busy life in Bristol. The show has some amazing music on it after listening to it myself, its a real mix of everything from Mash up's to David Gilmour or Randy Newman, or Yes! From the very strange to the very modern its a real what I call "Pipeline Show"! in every word and song.

I am proud to announce that Dave Asher once of Radio Caroline is joining us here at Pipeline, you will be able to hear him in a few weeks time on Pipeline radio. Keep checking for updates on Dave Asher I am sure it will be all worth it.
