BBC 6 Music

Didnt know zoe ball was on 1.3 million

Christ. What a pile of shit.

Liked Craig Charles doing the afternoon show, he was a breath of fresh air when he replaced Lemacq during lockdown..

I'd welcome more Huey Morgan during the week if that was an option, my favourite bit is his blatant '...now here's something from the playlist' to excuse the fact that he definitely isn't playing it by choice. Craig Charles is good though, could be a lot worse.

I can’t get past Morgan’s continuous Noo Yoick schtick, it just grates after about 20 minutes. Plus I’m a not a big fan of the music he likes, tbh.
I’m not into soul or funk either so I couldn’t listen to CC of a Saturday either. Plus my ex worked with him and described him as “really fucking creepy”. Personally I’d liked to have seen Ravenscroft and Hawkins given daytime slots.

Don Letts & Gid Coe on 8 hr alternating shifts with CC would make 6music great again.

^ might burn them out though. Maybe add Tom Robinson back in so it's 6hr stints tops.

really fucking creepy

Ha, yeah - A guy I occasionally djed with in Bristol was a ‘proper’ DJ who had done some gigs with him a few times. He said similar stuff. Described him as a sweating, coked-up creep who relied heavily on the music knowledge of others. Not sure how much was hyperbole of course, but it seems to chime with common opinion of him.

^ Cerys & Nemone would bring shifts to 4hrs.

I'd have Cerys, Ravenscroft and Hobbs if they'd just play the music and shut up. Some of the most annoying voices in radio history. Actually, not so much Cerys - she plays some painful shite when she's trying to be cool. More Iggy then.

I really, really despise that Wet Leg track, it irritates the fook out of me in a way that very few songs have ever achieved before.

After listening all day today i see the greys pitching for the radio 1 audience judging by the trailers that now run for that station between wall to wall Amy .

Im really enjoying Jamz Supernova's show and would love to hear other young voices on 6music.

Yeah I listen to her shows on the sounds app. Nice to hear someone break out of the 1xtra camp.

Same - she is unbearable.

I've got into NTS 1 recently. Morning show is so eclectic. Funk Soul Jazz Left Field Hip Hop, minimal chat. 90% of stuff they play I've never heard before

Plug for an excellent local-to-me station:

A good mate (Hellfire Video Club) has been doing some top notch proper old school hip hop shows on Noods recently (as well as his usual prog/psych/soundtrack/highlife/etc shows)

Agreed. It's a really great station.

Am really enjoying Ezra Furman in the evening slot - actually find myself wanting to know what is playing

This is great, thanks.

Thanks for this link, ditto @AlexD

Gideon Coe is back. All is well in the world.

The afternoon with Chris Hawkins is unbearable.

Fuck off. I don't care what listeners are up to today.

I looked forward to Friday nights ...😞

I quote enjoy the afternoons. The chat is a bit annoying but it's fairly minimal and he has a very relaxing voice. At least no-one is phoning in.
