Head Gardener

Radio Webradio, DJ

Downtempo

The Garden's roots first took hold in the early 90's
as a half hour slot via Cable Radio Milton Keynes on
a Thursday evening around teatime.
Using old valve technology and some dodgy 8 track
cartridges the show fed the city of MK a lean diet
of scratchy muffins and unpopular music, but after
a while the format gradually shape-shifted into the
beast it is today.

Early sessions and interviews ranged from Radiohead
talking about 'OK Computer' & acoustic sets with Beck,
Dandy Warhols and erm...Crowded House.
As well as angry punks Citizen Fish to Milton Keynes'
finest electro deviants Shock Corridor. Original tapes
of these shows now command two figure sums on E Bay!

With the progression of time, a longer time slot and
a nice lottery grant the show gradually grew a devoted
fanbase of listeners eager for an alternative to the
playlist orientated shows heard elsewhere in the city.
CRMK is a station run entirely by volunteers, and in the
23 years I have been producing and presenting the show,
it has been simply for the love of playing and promoting
the music I enjoy and my wish to share it with you.

So every Friday evening I will hopefully be able to
fulfill all your Gardening needs and maybe kill a few
of your musical weeds.
