Tho to be fair the essential mix seems to have recovered recently with them actually having some credible acts (DJ heather, massive attack, dj shadow etc). Ive not seen a techno EM in a while but there seem to be a reasonbale amount of folk popping up on guest spots in other shows. But yeah shame theres no dedicated techno/electro type show - guess its just not "commercially viable" enough for r1 :/ maybe its time to get a council flat, microwave transmitter and some 313 12"s together !!
