NDC Radio (Northern Dance Collective) is an online music station featuring shows by local and international DJs, with genres spanning house, disco and other electronica. 

At the core of NDC Radio's success is its commitment to promoting emerging talents alongside established artists, and featuring live broadcasts seven days a week.

Beyond its digital presence, NDC Radio actively engages with the music scene through events at clubs and festivals, via it's "NDC Events" division, with a recent success being ADE (Amsterdam Dance Event). Forthcoming in 2024 is "The Dales", a 2000-capacity festival on the last weekend of June.

For clarification purposes:-
Not a single track on my Soundcloud page has been ‘stolen’ by me from any Facebook page. Everything has either been in my possession on various hard-drives for years, or has been found elsewhere on that there Internet thing we all love.
Most of the soundboard live gigs originated from a close personal family member about 15 years ago, and you don’t see me bleating about THEFT THEFT THEFT!!
Furthermore, I’ve recently uploaded some newly extracted unreleased and unheard Orb stuff, that I am more than happy for anyone, absolutely anyone to rip, steal or borrow.
