Welcome to the pilot episode of My Favourite Year, a brand-new series from Soho Radio!
In this series, we challenge our hosts to pick their favourite year in music—exploring what made it unforgettable for them, on a personal level, a historical level or just in the wider musical landscape. From groundbreaking releases and cultural shifts, to coming of age stories and personal landmarks, our hosts will take us through the sounds, stories, and significance of their chosen year.
In our debut episode, host Matt Smooth—a music, fashion, and culture fanatic—takes us through his most formative year: 1985-86. Expect stories of mid-'80s London nightlife, his love for Prince and the Paisley Park scene, and plenty of stories about fashion faux pas and questionable fake tan choices.
Please get in touch with either Joe or Ang from Soho Radio if you would like to find out more about 'My Favourite Year' and how you can get involved on
