program profilesHere is a snapshot of some of the shows currently airing on Three D Radio.
Programs are constantly evolving at Three D Radio, and announcers inject their own flavour into each show they produce.
Some shows will have a naturally short lifespan, but others will thrive and entertain year after year. Some of our longest running shows on Three D include Smash it Up, The Prison Show, Blues Power, Hillbilly Hoot and the Environment Show.
Three D Radio Programs
Announcers are free to play whatever they wish - there are no playlists at Three D Radio - and that makes us pretty unique!

Red
hot rockabilly, garage, kitsch and exotica
mixed up with dreamy creamy mashed potato
pop and funk, plus lots of local sounds.
On
'Tune that Name' at around
5.20pm we dedicate the entire show to all
listeners lucky enough to have been born
with a particular name. We even throw in
an explanation of the meaning and origin
of your handle, and let you know how
popular it's been in South Australia in
recent years. Then
get 'on the job' with
(the whole) kit & caboodle at
5.45pm, with a themed musical bracket
dedicated to a different profession each
week. It’s
(the whole) kit &
caboodle. |
Tune
into the wireless every Wednesday between
4pm and 5pm to Out Of School 'cause
the music rocks! Three
D Radio has been committed to giving the
youth a voice over the airwaves since when
the station first began in 1979. It's a
great way to hear some of Adelaide's youth
bands, presented by ordinary, young people
who have an interest in local
music. Out
Of School's current DJ, Cale, is a high
school student. If
you are in a band and would like to
forward on any information to Out Of
School about the band or any upcoming
gigs, then please send Cale an
email. |
Playing
music that is both loud and heavy and
featuring genres such as hard rock,
thrash, grind, hard core, power metal,
glam, black metal, death, ambient, goth,
nu-metal and much more. The
show features the occasional Guests,
Requests and Six of YOUR Best - plus
regular features such as the Metal gig
guide [10pm] followed by the
Powersurge Top 10 chart. We
enjoy playing a variety of local,
interstate and international bands and
feel the name POWERSURGE is
synonymous with the true meaning of
metal! POWERSURGE
proudly supports local
metal. |

The
Vanishing Point is Three D's
experimental music radio show.
"Experimental" is defined loosely but
covers everything from early dada/music
concerete to modern electronica, ambient,
industrial, power electronics, EBM,
neo-folk, noise, spoken word and the just
plain bizarre. The
show, originally called "Osmosis" dates
back to the earliest days of Three D Radio
and has witnessed several DJs. Current
host, G.G. Alan Bindig has manned the show
since 1997. |

Country, Surf, Metal, Prog Rock, Hip Hop,
Rap, Britpop, Reggae, Blues and many other

refreshing way to start every

Music
recorded in fine music studios is great.
But music done by ordinary folk who would
be singing around the piano at the
singalong if that is what people did any
more, is great too. So every Monday
evening, Three D Radio hosts just that -
an open mic live-to-air, from 8pm to 9pm.
We never know who is going to turn up, we
don't audition, we just welcome anyone
along who would like to sing a song. They
need to have brought a chord chart if they
want others to join in. We always get lots
of folk coming along just to watch, (bring
your own chair) as this all takes place in
the stables at the back of the studio at
48 Nelson Street. Be prepared for the
great - and the raw. So,
if you're after a bit of a musical
happening with a pot of hot soup and a
campfire, look no further - just come
along to the Hoot and join in.

Gasp!
Shock! Horror!! Due to poor recent
on-field performances, long serving
defender, Wrong Way - Go Back!! has
been dropped to the B-side - "Until
further notice"... Coach 3D has also
stated that... "His overall attitude
sucks, to put it mildly - if he doesn't
pull up his socks soon, Wrong Way could be
lost in the wilderness for a long, long
time." Wrong
Way - Go Back!! 3d Radio's
mythical award winning Tuesday Drive Time
show has relocated to Wednesday 11pm to
1am - with all the same bitumen burning
blarney, Antipodean Classix, Footy Zone
& Of Human League Bondage... old stuff
with grunt & new stuff with some sorta
dignity & aplomb. |
Do
you remember when you thought country was
really uncool? Well that was before alt.
country and before grunge country and
before we realised that country is the
thing that links together all the other
things we are allowed to love: blues,
boogie, honky tonk, rockabilly, rock,
folk, swing, jazz, gospel, cowboy and
bluegrass - yes, they all have a
connection somewhere. Yodel Action
plays the lot; old timey come on in,
as well as modern combinations of all
those things. Join
Lone Tony Joe with the Hillbilly Help Desk
and Ali Oakley who brings you Heavy Petal
- as they alternate the 11am-1pm timeslot
each Saturday. Together, they are ThreeD's
Yodel Action. We
believe in the Squeezebox. |
