Mondo Bizarro with Simon, Dusty and TV Disko 

A vertiginous and variegated vinyl-fuelled ecstatically elongated early evening of eccentric and enigmatically enchanting dance tunes from around the globe. Jugfuls of jubilant Afrobeat, intriguing Indo-pop pastiches, barrel rolls of Bollywood beats, tantalising Turkish treats, beguiling Iberian iterations, gooey and gauche Belgian synth-pop, tasteful Thai tinctures, fecund and fraîche French boogie, leftfield disco dollops, lashings of Brazilian jewels, et bien plus encore. Bringing you world music for people that don’t like world music.
