Francophone Beats From Around The World
Radio show
Le Sound is a weekly francophone music radio show broadcasting on 4ZZZ Zed Digital in Brisbane. Every Tuesday night at 7pm, we take you on a journey through French-language music from across the globe — from Afrobeats to chanson, Caribbean rhythms to electronic grooves.
We believe great music needs no translation. Whether you speak French, a little French, or none at all — just bring your curiosity. Le Sound is a portal to sounds you won't hear anywhere else on Brisbane radio.
Broadcasting live and streaming worldwide, Le Sound connects the Brisbane francophone community with music lovers everywhere who are open to discovering something new.

Every four weeks, composer Sophie Lacaze connects a song to a piece of classical or contemporary music, hunting for the thread between them.
One night it might be Purcell's King Arthur from 1691 sitting beside Michel Polnareff's Le Bal des Laze, three centuries apart but telling the same story. The next, an entirely different pairing. A short, surprising bridge between centuries, featured on our Free Flow episodes.
Le Sound is open to submissions from anyone — artists, music lovers, francophone community members. Every submission is listened to by the team.
We curate every episode carefully trying to cover the wide francophone world. Not every track makes it to air, but if yours fits the spirit of Le Sound, we'd love to hear about it.
