Space Edition discovering Mr Amazing's music planet

Hey Guys, Today this Space Edition discovering Mr Amazing's music planet, yeah. Duane aka Mr Amazing is one of our beloved radio presenters. During the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown, he got bored and started to explore his parents home looking for musical objects, of course the handiest one was his mobile phone hahaha, a small keyboard, unusual kitchen appliances such as his microwave, Google samplers, he added a pinch of his hip-hoppy romantic and existential lyrics, he mixed, stirred and shaked everything... et voila!! you got something so unique that cannot be categorized in any place within this planet. Mr Amazing has played in the impro band Jamaica! which is based at The Gate, he has taken part in many live shows including Cafe Oto, ICA, and the Green Door in Brighton. He has made music along with Labake and MC Top Richie. These songs are in a raw state, they have not been produced or touch by any third party is just Mr Amazing alone in his home for this reason these songs are so valuable. Seat, Relax and Listen to Mr Amazing's music... you will be amazed!!!

Hey Gate Kickers, While Labake and Richie are happily celebrating Chelsea FC winning the Champions League, beating Manchester City in Porto Portugal 1-0. We celebrate the music of other bands made of musicians with Learning Disabilities within other UK great organisations such as Carousel, Heart n Soul and Club Soda. We go through the music of Fuzzbomb Flash Band, who are based in Brighton at Carousel and listen to two tracks from their album called Happy: "Funky Fuzzbomb Food" and "Traffic". Then we go to Club Soda in Croydon, and Labake talks about the problems faced by people with disabilities who want to work but the companies do not want to adapt the places to hire them, so we listen to The Carbonators and their song "Trouble at Work". Then we travel to South East London to meet Heart N Soul in Deptford and the band Electric Fire, we listen to two wonderful tracks by them: "Buzzing" and "Do you own Thing". Seat, Relax and Listen!!!
