Many’s the star who can attribute the moment their career really took flight to being a guest on The Big DJ Trev Show on Krr.fm.  Whether it be Bernie Pogston, Flannel Devine or the Splooten Triplets – all those household names you adore can attribute their success to being given the Big DJ Trev boost.  Even as recently as October this year, we were very happy to bring you an Aussie Radio first by playing the newest album by Cybertronic Spree.

Album Review – Respect The Prime 1986 Revisited

Also, as regular listeners would know, we always have some entertaining guests and do something a bit special for our anniversary shows. And never more than what we have planned for this year for The Big DJ Trev 3rd Anniversary Show!

This Thursday the 21st of December, we are very excited to be able to bring you an extremely talented young woman, an up-and-comer who has all the qualities to make it big – Ms Matilda Poole.

Here are a few words from the artist:

My name is Matilda Poole, I’m a local singer-songwriter and live music performer in the mid-west region, and I’ve just recently won the Mid-West Music Quest.

Most of my weekends consist of performing multiple gigs around Mudgee, Rylstone, Gulgong, and Dubbo, and sharing my love of music with everyone I can.

I’m 17 years old, and I have been singing since before I could talk, however my solo musical career performing and playing gigs began almost 5 years ago, when I auditioned for “Vocal Stars” and received the Gold Package.

Within the last six months, I’ve performed over 30 gigs, and to thousands of people, and I can’t wait to share my music with the KRR.fm listeners on The Big DJ Trev Show!

 Not only is Matilda a talented singer, she is also a talented actor & dancer and one of the nicest young people I have had the pleasure of directing upon the stage.  Tilda recently played a starring role in the latest Kandos production of ABBA: The Musical, acquitting herself superbly to the delight of the enraptured audience.

Did I teach her everything she knows? Probably. Did I teach her everything I know? Of course not – that would make her too dangerous to live!

So tune in from 6pm this Thursday to hear Matilda Poole singing live on The Big DJ Trev 3rd Anniversary show on KRR.fm.

Ask Trev – What’s it like being a Radio Star?

 

Australian Radio First – Ravage by Cybertronic Spree

In an exclusive to The Big DJ Trev Show on KRR.fm, for the first time on Australian Radio, we are proud to present Ravage – the newest album from Cybertronic Spree.

For anyone unfamiliar with the band, Cybertronic Spree released their first album in 2019; Transformers 1986, containing covers from soundtrack of that cult-classic The Transformers: The Movie.  Known to perform live in excellently crafted costumes of beloved Transformers characters such as Hot Rod, Unicron, Shockwave and Soundwave, the band had found a successful niche within the pop-culture world.

Album Review – Cybertronic Spree: Transformers 1986

Ravage is a collection of new original music by the band, with heavy 80’s influences.  However don’t let me spoil it for you – why not take the opportunity to listen for yourself!

Tune in to The Big DJ Trev Show from 6 to 9pm AEST on Thursday October 5th to hear the album played for the first time on Australian Radio!

For those in Central West NSW, tune into to 98.7fm.  For everyone else around the world go online to KRRfm.org.auTo celebrate the new album Ravage, not only we will be playing tracks from this new album, but having a Transformers themed night, complete with music from Cybertronic Spree’s first album, as well as music from the live-action movie soundtracks and other Transformer musical releases!

So tune in, rock on and roll out!

The Greatest 100 Songs Ever – Your Suggestions!

In March this year we had our Greatest 100 Songs of All Time competition.  Listeners were encouraged to not only vote for which songs out of the 110 listed they thought best, but also to make a suggestion of their own for a song they thought was worthy enough to be on the list.

Well a lot of people had a LOT of suggestions of songs they thought should be in the Greatest 100.  So many in fact that the suggestions outnumbered the list itself!  We received a whopping 145 suggestions of different songs to be played!

Since playing all these songs would result in the suggestions list itself getting its own months worth of shows, we will be playing one hours worth each show until we have worked through the entire list.  So tune in to The Big DJ Trev Show on Thursday nights from 6 to 9pm AEST from June onwards, and after the 8pm mark we will be playing through your massive list of suggested songs on KRRfm.

VOTE FOR THE GREATEST 100 SONGS OF ALL TIME!

Every year various radio stations do their ‘Top 100’.  Triple J has their ‘Hottest 100’, Triple M has their ‘Best 100’ and so on.  But these only cover the preceding 12 months – yawn – and frankly, a lot of crap songs make their way into the playlists.

On The Big DJ Trev Show  at Krrfm we think bigger.  MUCH BIGGER.  The best 100 songs of the last year?  Pfff…. small potatoes.  On The Big DJ Trev Show we are doing the ‘GREATEST 100 OF ALL TIME!’

That’s right loyal listeners – yours truly has gone through the music libraries of the world and found the GREATEST SONGS IN ALL OF HISTORY!  And YOU get to VOTE on them!  Voting will take place through March 2022 with the songs then being played in April.  Also, no band appears on the list twice, so you have over a hundred artists to choose from – stretching from the 60’s all the way up to the 2020’s!  Check out the list below:

Ask Trev – What’s it like being a Radio Star?

Todays ‘Ask Trev’ question comes from Scott in Lake Munmorah,

‘What’s it like being a radio star?’

Local newspaper covers The Big DJ Trev Show

Well Scott, it’s not as glamorous as you might think, nor as easy.  One does not simply show up to the station with a box of CD’s and a laptop of downloaded songs ready to go.  It takes a lot of work and preparation throughout the day to get ready for that evening’s performance.

To answer your question best, let me take you through a typical day leading up to that night’s broadcast of The Big DJ Trev Show:

6 to 9 Thursdays on KRRfm

7am – Wake up.  Groan.  Scratch.  Roll over.  Go back to sleep.

9am – Wake up.  Groan.  Scratch.  Get up.  Brought Irish Coffee by butler.

9.30am – Breakfast: Bacon, Eggs, Sausages, Black Pudding, Hash Brown, Mushrooms, Toast, more Coffee.  Tell butler to give the groupies in my bed cab fare and send them on their way.

10am – Go to toilet.  Read papers to check for interesting news stories to discuss on tonight’s show.

10.30am – Reflect upon how I am so much more knowledgeable and such a superior writer to every journalist in every newspaper everywhere.  Finish going to toilet.

11am – Personal Assistant opens and reads out my fan mail.  For those who have sent cash/Transformers/nude photos tell assistant to send them 8×10 glossies and autograph them on my behalf.

12pm – Limo arrives to take me for working lunch with Agent at All-you-can-eat BBQ Rib Joint.  Half- listen to latest round of offers of movie roles, television spots, celebrity appearances and book deals.  Endure constant flirtations from busty 19-yo waitress as she brings plate after plate of ribs.

12.30pm – Hit Agent over head with whiskey bottle when suggestion made of doing a Reality TV Show with Sophie Monk.  Agent grovels and apologizes profusely.  Get fellated by waitress.

2pm – Ribbon Cutting at new Hospital Wing in my name.  Inform Agent (still bleeding) to keep all sick people at least 20 feet from my position or else its Whiskey Bottle Time again – Agent rushes off to inform bodyguards.  Plaster smile on my face as photographs taken, hands shook and fans scream my name.

‘Can I go anywhere without fans adoring me? I’m entitled to a private life too dammit!’

4pm – Meet with personal trainer.  Told yet again should not be smoking and drinking on treadmill.  Tell trainer yet again to go fornicate himself and throw beer bottle at him.  Personal Trainer apologises and goes to find bandages.

5pm – Dinner: 1.2kg Tomahawk Steak with garlic mushroom sauce, sides of mash potatoes and roasted corn on the cob.  Pedicure whilst eating and assistant reads through celebrity guest list for tonight’s show.

5.30pm – Chopper ride to Radio Station.  Fussed over by the ladies from wardrobe, hair and makeup.

‘How do you get to work – a car? Pfff… peasants’

5.57pm -Moment of crippling self-doubt in dressing room, knowing that I’m a sham who makes his fortune off playing the music of real artists.

5.58pm – Shot of the brown stuff, snort of the white stuff.

And NOW we are ready to rock!

5.59pm – Walk through station to Broadcast Booth.  Clapping from all sides whilst bodyguards clear a path.

6pm – Showtime!

 

I hope this answers your question Scott, and that you enjoyed a sneak peak behind the scenes of what hard-working prep I go to each week to bring you the sparkling entertainment you have all come to expect and enjoy.  And remember folks, you can listen to The Big DJ Trev Show every Thursday night from 6 to 9pm on KRR.fm.

Local newspaper covers The Big DJ Trev Show

As most of you would know by now, I have a weekly radio show.  The Big DJ Trev Show airs every Thursday night from 6 to 9pm on krrfm.org.au

Well Community Capersthe Rylstone-Kandos district newsletter – asked if they could write a short piece about me in my role as a ‘local radio personality’ for their publication.  And what a callous sod would I be to disappoint my adoring fans, so I readily agreed.

Enjoy the short article from Community Capers (Octoboer issue 2021, Volume 274), which talks about my Transformatorium almost as much as it talks about my show!
