   About GO RADIO (Wickerman on Thursday!)
Talk to us, bozo



Mostly the work of Nathan Smith but also the work of Andrew Stephenson, Peter Smith, Mike Uphill, and Bethany Smith, GO RADIO make a variety of nice noises on a range of musical instruments, the conditions of which vary from moderately broken to altogether destroyed.


It works sort of well.

Jun 18 2008 4:56 AM

yeah but only a fool would use a factory preset on a virus :)i dont use any of the MK presets apart from those 2 cos they sound cool, the rest of them sound like shit

about a year-ish, only been gigging since april though.

Jun 18 2008 4:16 AM

no no, all written patches on the virus.

used two microkorg presets for those recorded songs (1984 and lights out's intro, the rest were custom), but they were recorded about a million years before i got the virus so they dont really matter anymore:)

Yo Go Radio!

Really like your music, and I'm not just saying that cos it's what one is supposed to do in awkward scenarios when bands "battle" it out. For some reason it reminds me of watching 'Lost in Translation'. Anyway I hope you didn't think we weren't grateful for winning cos we're over the moon, it's just we were suprised at the time and thought you guys would win. Hope to maybe play again sometime and we'll try and give Gary Numan a high 5 if he lets us.

yeah i'll do my best to make it on sunday. i was meant to have something on, but i think it's been cancelled.

i think you were probably talking about the poster?
i have no idea what the fonts are, i didn't make it.
but i believe in your judgement so you're probably right!
