Add to Playlist takes us on a musical journey of discovery, exploring the web of connections between tracks across the breadth of all musical styles, from pop, rock, reggae and hip-hop to classical, jazz, folk and country.

Presenters Cerys Matthews and Jeffrey Boakye and their studio guest, music director Kojo Samuel, who's worked with Stormzy, Rudimental and Jess Glynne, unearth musical and thematic links that may well take you by surprise, with additional in-depth explorations by violinist Tasmin Little.

Ditch the computer algorithm as we offer an alternative playlist, offering five special tracks each week, spanning genres, eras and continents. You’ll learn fascinating details about how the music is constructed, its history, tempo, rhythm, choice of key and use of instruments, from the cuica to the 808 and the banjo.
