BBC 6 Music

If only I had Spotify!

The worst one recently was "things that turned out to be much bigger or smaller than you expected"

Amazing. That’s the next few days of listening. Thanks.

Jesus wept

The last couple of days have been dire. The current elevator music is wow bad.

Switching to KEXP

NTS. That is all

Rating this in huey absence but then we knew he would not be on.

Ah so that's where he went. I only started listening to NTS shortly before his departure. Flo and Zakia are pretty good as replacements though.

This is the correct answer

Gideon Coe on a Saturday afternoon is a welcome suprise, so this dead queen thing is not all bad

This gideon sunday show fits quit well

Lamacq seems to be forced into a corner of playing one rap/hip-hop track in every show.

His choices (or those of his producers) appear to be entirely arbitrary.. like they hit shuffle on a playlist called “inoffensive rap music’s lesser known singles”

Not BBC6 but sad-times with Worldwide FM shutting down - was a lifesaver in lockdown, hope it's resurrected in some form soon

Worldwide FM

Yeah, what happened there? Feels a bit sudden. Is there a back story?

Think finances are the main reason, archive will still be available, just no new broadcasts, while they try to figure stuff out.

recently bought a small portable digital radio so been listening to r.6 for the first time, while there seems to be a playlist it's still a good mix of old and new, stuff you've never heard and stuff you haven't heard for a while.

especially liked tom robinsons chill out selection last night, a perfect end to the weekend, nice way to wind down on a sunday night

There’s a few great djs on there. Each one brings something different.

Mah - love techno Tuesday
Jamz on Saturday afternoon.
Tom Robinson on Sundays

There are some artists they have on repeat. My favourite thing about 6 is that you never really know what they’re going to play next.

Its not until you listen to stations like kexp and kcrw that you see whats wrong with R6

I'd add NTS to that also

Its not until you listen to Steve Lamacq that you see whats wrong with R6

Might have repped Noods on here before. My mate has a great monthly old school rap show - last one is here

Listen live to noods here

woke up to the charlattans followed by three old school hardcore tunes, then aphex twin and now altern8

well i'm truly awake now, and what a way to start the day

the prodigy have to be up there as one of my fave bands of the last 30 years, well in radio 6 for honouring their place in british music history

Don't forget about Snow. It's been top drawer this morning.

Ride's Leave Them All Behind sounded pretty good as well. It's been years since I heard that!
