Welcome back to Netil Radio Weekly, where we are compiling important moments of our little box of Love.
The last few days were a disaster as Virgin’s fibre optic cable was damaged somewhere in Poplar and it took them three days to fix it. In the 21st century. Internet. We can only hope Virgin’s space ships will be constructed better…
We are very happy to be back on air and we apologise for making you listen to our archives, however amazing they are. Despite the internet disasters, IRL there were moments of satisfaction when Tony Poland spotted a little gem (on picture above) in Wire Magazine, or when our weekly Sunday wonder Jaye Ward was hypnotising BBC Radio 1’s He.She.They listeners!
These are the things that give us the motivation and energy to work harder and be proud of our contributors.
I mentioned something very cool that is about to happen at our humble HQ, but before we spit it out, I would love to call all labels and music producers of the family who are releasing records in next few months to email me (miro@netilradio.com with “New Wonder” in subject of the email) as we have something very cool to offer.
That’s all from me. Scroll down to “catch up” on “what’s up”
Keep it tuned

A rare species of orchid believed to have been extinct in the UK has been discovered on the roof of an office building in the City of London.
Serapias parviflora, also known as small-flowered tongue orchid, was found growing in the 11th-floor rooftop garden of the Japanese investment bank Nomura. It is usually found in the Mediterranean basin and the Atlantic coast of France, Spain and Portugal.
The 15-plant colony in London is believed to be the only one in the UK. The plants grow to about 30cm and typically have between three and 12 tiny flowers, which are usually orange
