Paul Askew

Paul’s had music in his veins from early on. As a teenager he’d be recording the chart onto tape and splicing together his own mixes. Then it was running his school’s sound and light which led on to being a mobile DJ. But then further education and a civil service career beckoned, but still with a disco here and there.

In fact Paul’s disco’s were so good, one of his clients even married him! Two children later Paul’s continuing that love of sharing great music with Ouse Valley Radio. Paul can be heard indulging a love of dance music on Saturday nights from 10pm to midnight playing the best club classics from across the decades. Regular features include the remix, 12 inch, vinyl revival, and guilty pleasures.

Paul also regularly pops up across the Ouse Valley Radio schedule, and being big fan of the outside broadcasts in the community, you’ll find Paul presenting out and about too.

Paul’s lived in Huntingdon for 20 years, is a local school governor and charity trustee.
