Airing time: Fridays at 11pm
Welcome to "Batcave Beats" with DJ Curehead, an old goth veteran from Germany who has been weaving his dark magic in New Zealand for 17 years. With his roots in the industrial band Flout and his solo project PTSD, DJ Curehead brings some new tunes to the airwaves.

Not only do we delve into the pulsating rhythms of international acts, but we also proudly showcase the haunting melodies of New Zealand's very own homegrown alternative bands.
