Flyte

Astro-particle physicist and part time radio DJ with a passion for Blues. I currently present a show every Sunday 8-9pm on the Durham student radio station, Purple Radio. I have worked at two station prior to this, namely WHRB in Harvard and Blyth105 in Southwald, Soffolk. I am staring to get the hang of it. I mainly use this blog to post my playlists but I will also occasionally post some random tracks or trinkets.
