#ThePlaylist is a weekly dive into seeing how tenuously people can connect a song they love to a given theme.
It goes out live on https://stream.djdarren.site every Monday, 1900-2100 UK time.
Behold this week’s edition of #ThePlaylist, where our theme is:
Accents
This week we’re taking a trip around the world of accents – both linguistically and designerly. You won’t hear a single generic mid-Atlantic voice in this show. Apart from that one tune. Oh, and that other one.
// https://stream.djdarren.site // Monday 19:00-21:00 UK //
Have a rummage around in the big box for this week’s edition of #ThePlaylist, where our theme is:
Toys & Games
So all of the suggestions this week have been formatted to play on one of those Fisher Price ‘My First Record Players’. Two hours of gentle tinkling that vaguely reminds you of Top Pop Tunes.
Or not.

This week on #ThePlaylist we celebrated:
Ya Mama
Yes, YOUR mother. We celebrated her*, and we celebrated** her good. Two hours of songs about *your* mother.
_
*if she is/was great. We will berate her if not. Harshly.
**or berate her

Behold #ThePlaylist in its somewhat less than glorious form, having wrestled with us for two whole hours worth of every tech issue it could throw. But we managed it! And our theme this week was:
Whistling.
// https://stream.djdarren.site // Monday 19:00-21:00 UK //
Behold the return of #ThePlaylist, with the theme this week of:
Behind
And, well, obviously most of the songs are about butts. We should have anticipated this. So yeah, kick back, relax, and enjoy two hours of fine, artisanal songs about arses.
(though not *entirely* about arses)
// https://stream.djdarren.site // Monday 19:00-21:00 UK //
Grab your pickaxes and hard helmets with the little lights on them and join #ThePlaylist on a journey through the Earth’s layers, with this week’s theme:
Geology
Two hours of songs about how much people wanna ROCK! and that. But also mostly about mining. But in a good way, like.
// https://stream.djdarren.site // Monday 19:00-21:00 UK //
Unite and fight, for #ThePlaylist returns once more to promote solidarity for all, with our theme this week being:
We All Stand Together
Because, well, the world feels a tiny bit fractured now, doesn’t it? And yes, that’s mostly because of the media we consume, but it still doesn’t feel great. So here we have two hours of tunes about sticking together one way or the other, and fighting for what’s right.
And what’s right is listening to #ThePlaylist and sharing it with all your friends. This is the Wyld Stallyns of radio.
Excellent. *air guitar*

G’day cobbers, and behold the glorious return of #ThePlaylist.
Our theme this week:
A Land Down Under
where we’ve got two hours of songs that we’ll be playing upside down, while fighting off kangaroos and emus and flaming galahs and that, while some mongrel nicks our ute.
// https://stream.djdarren.site // Monday 19:00-21:00 UK //
This week all-star edition of #ThePlaylist, where our theme is:
Shoes
Or, well, footwear as a whole if we’re honest. Because MOST of you seem to believe that a boot is a shoe.
Two hours of the finest footwear themes for your fanciest footwork.
// https://stream.djdarren.site // Monday 19:00-21:00 UK //
For absolutely no reason whatsoever, this week’s theme is:
Rubbish
Yes. Two hours of rubbish music. Or music about rubbish. I dunno. The Eternal Ednas once again worked well together and built the best rubbish show it’s possible to have.
// https://stream.djdarren.site // Monday 19:00-21:00 UK //
