The Groovescooter Show and Jumping The Gap are weekly journeys through mod-groove, funk, jazz, disco, Latin, Afrobeat, reggae, ska, psychedelia, film music, downbeat, post-rock, dub, electro, innovative hip hop... ... In fact anything bending our ears from around the globe, usually with a [sometimes loose] connection to groove.

To tell us about your music or new release, or to ask about something you've heard on the show, get in touch by zapping us an email (see below). We play CDs, vinyl and unreleased CDRs which can be sent directly to us with a bio and contact details [PO Box 127, Edgecliff NSW 2027].

Selectors Georgie and Paris started The Groovescooter show in 1997 as a weekly program on Eastside Radio. It was the precursor to the Groovescooter label which began in 1999. The Groovescooter Show is now in its second decade and continues in 2009 with an alternating roster of selections from originators Georgie and Paris, long-time pillion and global gatherer James Locksmith (Middlesize, Djembe!, Turntables On The Harbour) and our new 2009 contributor, Gordon 'Savage Gee' Watson (Yum Yum, Skull Sessions, Departure Loungee). Early in 2009 DJ Toon (Tiki Two) exited The Groovescooter show stage-left to start his own conga-line at the same time on Wednesday evenings. Toon's new show is called The Vinyl Frontier. Paris also has his own weekly show called Jumping The Gap on Sydney's 2SER, which you can stream via the world wide web at 2ser.com.
