If you’re really quick, you’ll catch Adam Butler on a BBC Radio 2 programme about David Bowie in Berlin, “Berlin Soundz Decadent” which starts at 20:30 GMT tonight. He gets asked as an “ex-pat anglo german musician” to describe the contemporary Berlin music scene.

Elisabeth Mahoney, the Radio Critic of The Guardian has called it “a very classy programme…very very thorough and interesting”, and made it one of her Christmas Listening Picks on Radio 4’s Front Row. The Radio Times have made it a Pick of the Day, and Bowie website www.bowiewonderworld.com describes it as “essential listening”.
