I have to admit that as of the last week and a bit I have been throwing myself into listening to on demand radio, listening again, or just podcasts and audio that are up and about. I think this has something to do with the shifts I work, not pleasent, and the fact that some of the radio that I could be listening to is not what I want at that particular time, or it could be the fact that I feel like I don't listen to enough music these days. A fact that was driven home to me, a few weeks back listening to Desert Island Discs with Jill Balcon.
Right now I'm listening to Radio Free Hvana on Dazed Digital, there is something charming about Howie B and Craig Richards presenting it, the fact they find themselves so funny, that they're laid back and unfazed by slip up's, something that calls to mind some of the more amusing radio shows I have heard on student radio and other amateur sources, and that ain't dissing them, that's just saying that they clearly care more about the music than the scripts, if there are any.
My other on demand favourite is probably unsurprising, Rupture Radio, presented by DJ /Rupture gives a nice overview of a world of music that fills the blogs but you don't often here together on a show, which is a shame, to many radio shows are genre specific whether with a loose genre grouping or a very tight idea, which to be honest actually agrivates me after a while.
Meanwhile Kiss Fm, has also provided me with a nice selection of shows to pick from. Joe Ransom, Sinden and of Crazy D and Hatcha, there are probably more I should check out too.
I also intend to check out Samurai FM as well in the near future, and of course I have to listen to Sub FM.
Meanwhile I'm a little disappointed to see that two big dubstep nights are on in the toon on the same night, the 23rd, it just don't make sense.
