    Erol Alkan Returns To BBC6

    It’s been a while, but we’re happy to announce that Erol will return to the 6 Music airwaves this weekend, on Sunday 28th November at 8pm

    Erol let’s us in on what to expect to hear… “The 6 Mix have been kind enough to give me full musical freedom, which means I can play whatever music I find genuinely exiting. From the latest club cuts right through to obscure psychedelic gems from the Sixties, my aim is to broadcast two hours of the best music you have probably never heard before.”

    Listen to BBC6 Music online here, on Freeview/Freesat channel 707, Sky channel 0120 or Virgin channel 909
