Anyone else there wish that Radio one was like this all the time?

Its possibly been the best week for radio one i can remember.

The music is so different refreshing and just a whole lot more enjoyable then the usual commercial dirge they usually churn out at least 4 times a day.

I havent really anything against the usual djs , however i can feel myself returning to radio 2 for most of the time.

Got to agree, they've played plenty of decent stuff this week.. I never usually listen to Radio1, but if they played this kind of stuff all the time I'd listen often.

It has been a great week listening to new music, not looking forward the return of usual shows next week.

It has encouraged me to listen more at night, I may just skip the day.

I was wondering why the radio in the workshop at work wasn't as spectacularly awful as it normally is

Totally agree with you. For the first time in years I found myself turning Radio 1 up rather than off.

As far as I am aware, the BBC doesn't offer a channel that plays that sort of music, but they should. It was excellent.

It was a great week for music, I don't mind some of the music they play during normal days, but the 'playlist' attitude they have grates if you have it on for long periods of time, each DJ has to play the same few tracks in their show, mixed in with other tunes.

I do prefer the night time stuff, Rob da Bank is my favourite show on there, although I'm rarely awake to hear his show on a Saturday morning, ( 5am - 7am ) but I listen to it on playback whilst working nights.
