Hi I'm Niki and I'm URF's Station Manager. I am legally responsible for the station and help keep the station running smoothly by organising the schedule and looking after all the lovely members of URF. If there is anything you want to ask please don't hesitate to contact me, from an issue with the time of your show or if your are feeling a little rusty in the studio I can arrange some extra training with the equipment.
I am in my second year studying English Literature- so much reading! I currently have a show on Fridays called Fresh Film Friday, which is part of the URF News Team's shows. My co-host and I bring listeners the latest film news and reviews, we also have a soundtrack of the week section where we play a song from a current film's soundtrack and we provide you with all the info on whats going on in the Brighton film world.
I don't have a favourite song as such but my favourite band is either Foo Fighters or The Cure.
I'm Kit and I'm your URF Chair. I'm responsible for chairing all members meetings and our weekly Exec get togethers. I also represent URF at the Students' Union and sit on the SU Activities Committee. I'm in my second year studying Politics and co-present TFI Friday with Kit and Carl - every Friday at 3pm. I have pretty varied (bad) music taste and rarely stray from the usual chart stuff. Although I do like some old classics.
Hello, I am Patrick, URF's secretary. I'm a first year student of History and Philosophy. My show is Coffee Break on a Wednesday (8-9pm). It's a chilled out evening of banter, provocation and music. It sounds pretentious, but, well, it's not. I hope.
But yes, I'm the secretary, so if there are emails to be sent thats my job, or, if you have any questions, please do email me and all. many thanks, Patrick.
Favourite Song: Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower
Hey, I'm Benjy, and I'm very proud to be able to call myself the new Head of Music at URF, which means I'm responsible for organising the lovely folks in the music team (which I highly encourage you to join), making sure all the records we get sent are reviewed and organising gig reviews and interviews. As I write this, I'm only in my second term of a three-year Philosophy degree, but already the uni feels like home. I currently host my own show on Friday at 12 midday, where I play some of my favourite tunes from down the years and try to shoehorn them into the slightly silly features I created, co-host the URF chart, where we run down what's making waves in the URF ocean and host Feedback: The New Music Show, which profiles some of the best and biggest new stuff around.
When people ask who my favourite band are, I politely remind them how much I hate them and what an awful question that is, before umming and ahhing for a while and inevitably deciding on The Smiths, by the virtue that How Soon Is Now? is the single greatest song ever committed to record. Most of my music taste is based around the indie, rock and dance scene, although I'm always happy to be dissuaded by something brilliant from a different genre. You'll generally find me throwing a frisbee around campus, or out in town partying the night away, hopefully somewhere that isn't Oceana.

Hello all, I’m Simon and I’m the Head of News at URF. As the News Editor, it is my responsibility to organise the reports which are played out to our listeners each day and to manage all the station’s News shows, including Frontpage and The Sports Talk Show. I’m a typically down-to-earth Mechanical Engineering student, and I’m currently in my first year of study.
Anyone who listens to Frontpage on Wednesdays will soon realise that my preferred music genre changes at the drop of a hat, but I do have a handful of favourite songs. ‘Go Your Own Way’ by Fleetwood Mac is in my opinion one of the greatest songs ever composed, and I also hold a particular affection for ‘Don’t Stop Believin’’ by Journey.
On a usual night out in Brighton you can usually expect to see me in The Font or in PavTav, and sometimes clubbing in Digital. You may even catch me getting thrown out of the Subway on North Street for abusing the ‘free refills on soft drinks’ rule!
Feel free to email me if you'd like to find out more!
I am Kris, the Head of Tech. I've done Tech once before at URF, and have come back into the fold this year. Although I don't have a show, you'll normally find me listening to anything from Hip Hop to Classical to Pop Punk.
As for favourite's I'm terrible at picking, but I'm enjoying All Time Low and My Chemical Romance at the minute.
If you've got an interest in tech then feel free to shoot me an email and come along to one of the Tech meetings.
