Gotta shout out that Dave Clarke pilot from years back, that tape still gets hammered now, a blinding show and a real education. WTF happened Dave? ;P Nah that's unfair, I just got older. (Did anyone hear his live set from Creamfields? Impressed?)
It's so true that the only true subgenre of dance that's cruelly under-represented on Radio 1 is techno/electronics, I mean how cool would it be to have a weekly 4-hr show, even in the middle of the night? Is this list connected at the BBC? Anyone? With a longer show all the sub-sub-genres of techno would get a chance, plus interviews and the odd piece of reportage. Isn't this one of those perennial post-club conversations?? I agree with that opinion on internet radio (impersonal), although it's only a matter of time, it will still be years before kids are underneath their duvets with palm PCs, streaming broadband through a wireless card from daddy's router. I remember hearing The Orb on Peel for the first time, at age 13 I didn't know a song could last for nigh-on an hour! (Sound of violins...Hovis, etc...) While we're on the topic, did anyone see the article in the Times about the BBC putting their ENTIRE video and audio archives on the Net for free? And we'll access it through a custom peer2peer client? Sound like the future to me. Some of those essential mixes are works of art. (But can we name the best ones?)
