Liam Miles

Hi, my name is Liam, though some might know me as the voice behind 'Weiss And Chill' on YouTube and Twitch! I’m a lifelong lover of Japanese culture and music, and I’ve been fortunate to share that passion with people all around the world.

When I’m not creating content or diving into card games with friends, you might find me reminiscing about my days as a DJ at Leicester’s iconic Alternative Nightclub, Mosh, where I played everything from Indie Rock to Heavy Metal (with my signature sign-off being the original Pokémon theme song!). I’ve also spent time as a Radio Presenter and Producer on Loughborough Campus Radio and Demon FM, where I learnt the art of connecting with listeners through music and conversation.

Japan holds a special place in my heart. From its rich culture to its incredible food and exports, I’ve been lucky enough to visit twice—once to compete in a card game World Finals and again to celebrate my 30th birthday. My love for anime, gaming, and the music that accompanies them inspires everything I do, and I’m thrilled to bring that passion to Coalville Public Radio (CPR).

On my show, Nippon-ji, I’m here to take you on a journey through the best of Japanese music, from chart-topping J-Pop and J-Rock to iconic anime and game soundtracks. Together, we’ll celebrate the incredible sounds of The Land of the Rising Sun and share the magic of its vibrant culture. So tune in, and let’s keep the music alive!
