a week after they went on air proper i sat thinking about how its gone.
unfortunately i dont how long the honeymoon period will last before the inevitable money men stick their oar in
however if youre lile me and listen to radio all day and are sick of the same 5 songs every hour and annoying ads then this a breath of fresh air – very similar in feel to when xfm first started
the beauty of net only radio is that almost be definition if you can keep your listener for an hour you’ll keep them all day – hence the lack of obvious and annoying playlists
ive heard pearl jam, the verve, pink floyd, last shadow puppets, ladyhawke, elastica, curve, clash, metallica, wombats, cure, pigeons, the music and god knows what else inbetween – rarely a naff “hit single” or easy obvious track among them – eg i heard gravity grave by verve
midweek i had a request of mine played: the wonderstuff – circlesquare (i’m going to test them with lacuna coil – heavens a lie next week)
(they even had a dancey type show last night that i didnt turn off)
and no ads! – ive spent all week hearing tracks and then googling to find out who it was
bleedin perfect radio
