Back2Basics is Ireland's only old school dance music show that plays only 12" vinyl records. It airs every Sunday at 9.30-11pm and online via the Dublin South FM website. All shows are uploaded to iTunes, with each one getting over 5,000 listeners worldwide (reputed to be growing at 500 listeners per month). The show is the only one of it's kind to play classic house, disco, electro and hip hop; it also features some modern music, which the presenters feel sound old school, or are influenced by old music or which they deem to be either future classics or are particularly unique. Local dance music has also started to feature, particularly from Irish records labels. Notable guests on the show have included former Hacienda DJ and founder of M People, Mike Pickering and singer Rowetta of The Happy Mondays. The show is presented by Englishman Simon Palmer and Irishman Padraic Marren, using records from Simon's collection.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or shows:
“Liberty, as it is conceived by current opinion, has nothing inherent about it; it is a sort of gift or trust bestowed on the individual by the state pending good behavior.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
“You should never assume contempt for that which it is not very manifest that you have it in your power to possess, nor does a wit ever make a more contemptible figure than when, in attempting satire, he shows that he does not understand that which he would make the subject of his ridicule.”
—William Lamb Melbourne, 2nd Viscount (1779–1848)
