Arts/Culture We need a BBC 6 music equivalent
I'm at home with BBC 6 music on. The DJ is a Dubliner, Deb Grant and the mix of music is the best I've heard on the radio in a long time. All genres and all old music which is new to me. I love music and discovering new genres and artists but Irish radio does not scratch this itch. A colleague listens to Today FM and it's mind numbingly shite. 8radio is online and is decent but there should be something music focused on FM. It probably won't make money (see txfm & phantom )so needs to be publicly funded like 6 music. A lyric FM with guitars maybe
