Groovement: Qool DJ Marv by groovementradio

Marv has been playing the Friends and Family/Fat City parties in Manchester for many a year, even taking the vibe to New York for the Turntables on the Hudson party. Some interesting chat on his history with Manchester and his musical journey accompanies an impeccable choice of tunes for this podcast.

Qool DJ Marv is known worldwide for his unpretentious and open-armed approach to playing a set: have a listen to a grand list of mixes over at the Qool DJ Marv podcast site.

Thank you Marv for jumping on board!

Originally broadcast on www.UnityRadio.fm Sunday 6th December 2009.
