Funky Corner Radio

Funky Corner Radio's UK service brings a specialist funk, soul, R&B and disco programme to the Swindon DAB area. The station concentrates on music from the 1970s and 1980s, connecting familiar favourites with less frequently heard recordings. Its musical identity is deliberately focused, with the rhythm and character of those traditions providing continuity across the programme.

Rare grooves and album tracks sit alongside established songs, giving the selection more depth than a repertoire limited to the most familiar singles. The broadcaster emphasises human selection and a sustained interest in the records themselves. That approach suits listeners who know the main landmarks of soul and disco but also enjoy discovering material beyond them.

Marco Giannotti creates the Hits of Funky Corner Radio mixes, including selections built around the Philadelphia sound. Antonello Ferrari's Studio 54 follows disco's club tradition, while Marco Cavenaghi contributes rare vinyl discoveries. Dedicated Stax selections feature artists including Otis Redding, Booker T. & the M.G.'s, Sam & Dave and Isaac Hayes. Short sequences of rare records and live performances add further detail to the familiar funk and soul hits.

The UK edition has a local contact for Swindon news, advertising and collaboration, placing its specialist music service within a British broadcasting area. Its audience can also listen beyond that local coverage. Funky Corner offers a consistent choice for people who want the musical detail, warm grooves and distinctive production associated with funk, soul and disco from those two decades.
