Samba City Grooves

On the show this week, in honour of the weather and the Bank Holiday, we’re stepping into a different kind of sunshine – the kind that doesn’t depend on the British weather, but on rhythm.

Latin dance carries the history of streets, cafés, carnivals and night time cities, but it never feels old. Whether it’s the elegance of Rio, the swagger of New York salsa, or the nu jazz reinventions from Tokyo to Berlin, every track was made for bodies in motion.

So shake yourself down and get ready for two hours of heat, colour and pure grooves.

I'm someone who doesn't like parameters, barriers or fences. I'll try and climb over them, burrow under them or just pretend they don't exist - until they don't. Sometimes I'll write about the mind in a poetic way, or poetry with neural undertones, or I'll proselytise endlessly about my favourite new band - or one of the old ones. My Blog will give you the keys to the kingdom. A kingdom with no borders, no expectations and, therefore, no failure.. Because I am endlessly empathetic with people, their motivation, their behaviour,their problems and their quest for knowledge, I work with the pioneering Brighton-based homeless, vulnerable women and disempowered school students charity Off The Fence Trust that has tried to redress the equality deficit for over two decades. I produce, host and promote two radio shows a week: The Whole Nine Yards Sundays 3-5pm on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM (www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen) - and Lost Immortals on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM on Sundays 5-7pm.
