1. Do you play your own material?
Yes, most of the music played on Kicks is from our own collection. During the years we played some records that were borrowed from and returned to some local distributors and shops but these are rare. Everything Kicks has collected is archived and might be aired again in the future.
2. Do you trade, sell or copy?
No, we never do anything like that. Since all the releases that we played on Kicks are archived for potential later use we never do part with any recording. Also out of respect of the artists and labels who provide us with their releases we never make illegal copies. The most of the Kicks collection is bought with our own funding.
3. Do you get paid for doing a show on Radio Centraal?
No, Radio Centraal is partly funded with member fees because it has no income from third parties. So it has no commercials or pre-formatted playlists. Every month we both pay a small amount of money to Radio Centraal to keep Kicks on air.
4. What kind of styles of music do you play?
It is difficult to sum up all the styles of music that we play. It is easier to say what we do not play and that is: mainstream and commercial music, reggae and hip hop. Anything else has a possibility to be played on Kicks.

5. Are you also partners in real life?
Yes, we have been living together in Antwerp since 1988. And we have a son
called 'Borr' who was born in 2007
6. Do you download mp3’s to air on your show?
Yes, on some occasions we might download some mp3’s from the internet but only on request of the artists themselves. Never send an mp3 to our e-mail as it will be discarded immediately.
Just mail the URL and as much other info as possible
(website, bio...) but please do not attach files.
7. What formats do you play?
We play regular cd’s and cdr’s and all sorts of vinyl. Also accepted are md’s, tapes and mp3-cdr’s. We can also play and review music dvd’s and dvd-r or dvd+r. The listeners will of course only hear the soundtrack. If your work is released on a regular cd but you want to save costs, you can make a promo-cdr with a Xerox of the original artwork and send this to us for airplay. All other forms of promo are also welcome. Please include as much information as possible, at least a biography and an
e-mail so we can contact you back and send a playlist of the revelant
show.
8. Do you get in contact after you aired my material?
Yes, after we’ve played a title of your release we will send you an e-mail with the playlist. Because of busy lives we try to keep all other correspondence as little as possible. So if you want to know how much we like your music or something else keep in mind that already by the fact that we aired your release means that we like it (we never play anything we really hate) and that we both are very broadminded when it comes to music.
9. Where can I send promo’s to?
Send all promotion to:
Bruno & Peggy
Postbus 571
2000 Antwerpen 1
Belgium
10. Is there a possibility that you might interview me?
Yes, if you want to be interviewed there is always a possibility to do that. The interview can take place through the phone, but only after we have received your promotional material and have had the chance to air your material. Also keep in mind that we do not have the opportunity to call you, you will have to call us live on air during our radio show and pay for the costs. The phone number of Radio Centraal is +32 (0)3 232 30 30. These interviews are recorded for eventual publication on this website. We also do interviews through e-mail for this website so if you contact us for an interview always specify what type of interview you want.
11. What does the + and * before the artists name mean?
The + means that Peggy has announced the track * symbolizes the fact that Bruno did the annunciation.
12. What is your e-mail contact?
You can contact us at info@kicksextremeradio.
Note that we will not read mails with ‘hello’, 're:whatever',
'to:kicksextremeradio' or other vague subjects. So please make your
subject as clear as possible. Mails containing attachments will be discarded immediately.
We prefer being contacted at our myspace
page.
13. Is there a possibility to listen to Kicks online?
Yes, you can listen to the live stream of Radio Centraal
if you have winamp installed. This is the link http://www.streaming.radiocentraal.be/
