New radio station comes out of lockdown


A Christchurch couple have solved their lockdown boredom by broadcasting a new radio station from their home. Dominic Benedict James has called the station New Brighton Wassup - and it is on air six nights a week, featuring shows presented by him, under his DJ name DB James, and Emily Adcock. The shows have a different theme each night, including New Zealand music, reggae, rockabilly, heavy metal and talk back. James has wanted to start a radio station in New Brighton for some time, and said the lockdown has been perfect for bringing his vision to life. "We always felt that New Brighton needed its own voice for its listeners and for the community to take part in that," he said. "But yeah, I guess boredom was the trigger to get it actually moving. "It's nice to have some sort of community development that can sort of bring community members together - that's kind of cool," he said.

Welcome to New Brighton Wassup, your local online radio station to keep you off face book, not fighting with your better half and well entertained for a few hours a night. Station will be live 8.00pm - 10.00pm Tuesday to Thursday, 8.00pm - 11.00pm Friday and Saturday then 3.00 till 5.00 pm Sunday. Monday at this stage will be DB James, your awesome DJ, voice recovery day.
