@afursedon your dream job??

[James Knight @jnrknight]

Wanna get paid to look through these records at the National Sound Archive for 6 months with me? Then send me a DM for details! For once the role does not require SQL/database/XML/metadata etc knowledge - Excel & solid familiarity w/vinyl records are the main prerequisites - hmu!

A nice afternoon at another #readingfestival. @DownattheAbbey is a bit more picturesque than @OfficialRandL

[Siren Craft Brew @SirenCraftBrew]

Who else had an amazing time at @DownattheAbbey yesterday!? What beats great music, with great beer in an even more special setting?

See you all there for round two today!

[Pale Blue Eyes @pbemusic]

Nice one to @themarkrad + @StuartMaconie for spinning ‘Spaces’ this morning on the show! We just so happened to be listening on the snazzy hire car radio, headed to Reading for @DownattheAbbey 5:30PM this evening x
