On a Friday morning from 12am - 2am, the Wavvy gang - Sleepyhead, Aslan, Dani M, Dan Dalton and Jai Chouhan - select tunes you can get wild and wavy to in your crib, car or club, showcasing a supa-fresh mix of turn up raps, sexy, futuristic R&B, chill low-lying raps, and experimental club tracks. Show Coordinator Dani Marsland rounds up her faves from the last month. 1. Joker – Midnight You don’t know hugeness until you’ve heard this towering track. It’s the first we’ve heard for a while from 26 year-old Bristol producer Liam Mclean – Joker - who, along with a few mates like plastician and Guido, were integral in founding the ‘purple’ genre of dubstep, the big, psychedic, swirly, G-funk-infused style of dubstep that went on to stylistically influence young producers like Hudson Mohawke, Com Truise, Kuedo, and Swindle.

The 2014 Radiothon is taking over four Northbridge venues for an epic pledge drive kick-off.. Perth institution RTRFM is an entirely self-funded enterprise, and each year for 10 days the radio station calls on you, the listeners, to give a little back over the course of a 10-day Radiothon Pledge Drive. One of the many ways you can do it (check HERE for all the details) is simply by attending the 2014 Radiothon Party, going down Friday August 15 across four Northbridge venues - The Bakery, The Bird, Ya Ya's and Flyrite. Each venue hosts four unique line-ups, featuring some of Perth's best and brightest: THE BAKERY - Savoir, Rainy Day Women, Kučka, Davey Craddock & The Spectacles and The Weapon is Sound. YA YA's - Dream Rimmy, Loners, HAMJAM and Hideous Sun Demon.

"Radiothon is the one time in the year where we pretty much turn the spotlight inwards and big-up ourselves"

"If you are in two minds about why you should support this place, have a listen to other media, commercial media - if you’re okay with that, then that’s okay, but if you’re not, that’s the reason RTRFM is so important."
