Hi Folks

Heading off to Italy in the camper tomorrow and looking for inspired listening.....all recommendations gratefully received.

Happy to listen to nearly anything but pop, miserable sh*t and metal.

I once drove to Switzerland with two friends who liked U2. I almost didn't make it.

I also like movie soundtracks just so you can quote lines at each other

You can download whole shows to play offline on the BBC radio iplayer app.
Search 6 music festival, there's still time to listen to a lot of the DJ sets.

'The Race For Space' by Public Service Broadcasting.
With the samples from the Apollo Missions you will find yourself getting pretty immersed in the album.
Great for driving.
