In 2014 he was commissioned to create DJ Yoda Goes to the Sci-Fi Movies as part of the BFI's Sonic Cinema event. He presented the first audio-visual radio mix on BBC Radio 6 Music. As part of their BBC Music Day, Radio 4 invited Yoda to mash-up the entire station, remixing The Archers, the Shipping Forecast, and John Humphrys.
