Radio Luz in an international guise for the springtime

Date: 10.03.2021 Category: general news, student activity, university life

Academic Radio Luz has launched its spring schedule. There will be new foreign language programmes, as well as great music and quality journalism. Our radio station has been on the air for 15 years.

w_redakcji_radia_luz_3.jpgIts radio programme format is refreshed a few times a year. This time, most of the new programmes will appear at weekends and will usually be broadcast alternately, i.e. once every fortnight. This will be the case, for example, with the programme "Rare grooves", hosted every second Saturday at 5 p.m. by Pedro Miranda, a WUST student from Brazil.

– Before studying at WUST, Pedro worked in a record store in Sao Paulo, so his understanding of music is very good. He will host his programme in English, presenting gems and his South American music find on vinyl – says Szymon Baczyński, the station's music and programme manager and a graduate of WUST’s Faculty of Mechanical Engineering.

In turn, the Russian-language programmes begin at 2 p.m. on Sunday. First, you’ll listen to the news programme "Szto tam?", in which students from Belarus and Ukraine will present the most interesting news of the past week, followed by the already well-known music programme "Rock Station".

– The radio station spontaneously created a small Belarusian-Ukrainian editorial team, headed by Alex Kartashov, a student at Wrocław University, who was first a technician and now has talked about music in Russian for a few years on the programme "Rock Station". He came up with the idea of creating a Russian-language block, which is a kind of nod to the growing group of our listeners from Ukraine and Belarus – explains Szymon Baczyński.

w_redakcji_radia_luz_2.jpgA weekend treat for history buffs will be the "Wrocław OdNowa" project, a series of fifteen talks on post-war life in the capital of Lower Silesia, organised in cooperation with Wrocław University. They are broadcast on Sundays at 9 a.m., letting you find out about things such as what childhood was like in post-war Wrocław, what happened in a szaberplac, how cinemas operated and what the "brick recovery" drive was all about.

Another new music programme hosted in English will be Jakub Czachorowski’s "Fresh Air". The programme prepared by the student from the University of Wrocław, broadcast on Mondays at 11 p.m., caters to enthusiasts of electronic music, new trends, and niche genres – from offbeat ambient to hyper-pop.

There will, of course, be morning programmes with which listeners are already familiar. Kicking off at 7 a.m. will be “Foreplay” and “Audiostarter”, where you'll listen to good sounds and reviews of the latest albums.

The evening hours are, as usual, a time for music. At 6.00 p.m., the "Ultrasounds", our radio's flagship programme, begins, and then until midnight, there will be original music programmes catering to very different tastes.

The radio’s full schedule can be found on its website.

You can listen to Radio Luz every day, around the clock, on 91.6 FM and online. The radio doesn’t broadcast advertisements. In 2014, it was awarded by the College of the Rectors of Universities of Wrocław, Opole, and Zielona Góra for its activities benefiting students and contributing to the integration of Wrocław’s academic community.
