No, we haven’t disappeared or been taken off the air (although you could be forgiven for thinking we had, after the last show we did), we’ve just moved to Tuesdays for the new series of Off The Chart! Join us as we go back to this week in 1987 for a look at some of the week’s forgotten hits, three tracks from a hit album, a look at the day’s news and events, the top five singles in full and – new for 2019 – the International Chart Entry Of The Week Feature (#ICEOTWF) is expanded to include a countdown of this week’s Belgian top twenty. Which ’60s legends were in the chart with a new song for the last time this week? Which top forty hit was co-written by a TV quiz regular? And who spent thirteen weeks on the chart without ever getting higher than number 84? Tune in at 9pm to find out!
Listen to Off The Chart on Mad Wasp Radio via their website, their apps for iOS or Android, or through TuneIn – and don’t forget to tweet along using the hashtag #OffTheChart. If you’re not around at 9pm on a Tuesday, or you couldn’t quite believe it the first time round, you can hear the show again at 3pm on Thursday or catch up on Mixcloud shortly after that.
If you enjoy Off The Chart but find it’s just not long enough, why not head over to our Patreon page and subscribe to us for a teeny amount of cash every month? You get access to the exclusive deluxe edition of the show with bonus 12″ mixes, additional chatter and a comprehensive look at the week’s top ten singles, as well as all sorts of other bonus content including regular Further Off The Chart shows where we play some of the records that come up in conversation on the regular shows. You can have all this for as little as $1 a month – we really appreciate it and it all goes towards the running of the site.
If you’ve missed a previous edition they’re all on our Mixcloud page, or for a taster of the music we play, listen to our Spotify playlist Way Off The Chart including one track from each show!
We also have a Spotify playlist for our #ICEOTWF feature, including all (well, most) of the international hits we’ve played since the feature began in March 2017. There are all sorts of oddities in here, all of which were hits somewhere in the world but not in the UK!
