March 30, 201610 yr Not much to speak of but YES for Biffy Clyro and Chairlift :D! Been loving 'Romeo' for a few months and wondered if any radio station would actually pick it up
March 30, 201610 yr How ridiculous, just 4 additions. I was hoping to see Philip George/Dragonette, I hope this doesn't become another Blonde/Karen Harding.
March 30, 201610 yr How ridiculous, just 4 additions. I was hoping to see Philip George/Dragonette, I hope this doesn't become another Blonde/Karen Harding. I suppose with the new playlist day next week this is only half an update - anyways great new additions for Biffy, NAO, Kano and Chairlift!
March 30, 201610 yr Not much to speak of but YES for Biffy Clyro and Chairlift :D! Been loving 'Romeo' for a few months and wondered if any radio station would actually pick it up Yeh Chairlift is fantastic - a personal chart no1 for me - good to see it in there even if it's only the INMWT list. Annie Macs been playing it quite a bit - that's how I got into it.
March 30, 201610 yr Awful update. Lol at Chairlift on the In New Music playlist, they've been around for like 10 years.
March 30, 201610 yr wow that must've been a productive playlist committee meeting! :mellow: still welcome climbs for blonde and dj snake, as well as nao picking up support~ :cheer:
March 30, 201610 yr Yay to DNCE, Years & Years and ZAYN going a-list and Blonde going b-list. Hope Meghan Trainor can go a or b-list next week. Shame Sigma are out. Should be Lukas Graham out instead
March 30, 201610 yr Author Awful update. Lol at Chairlift on the In New Music playlist, they've been around for like 10 years. Didn't they have Snoop Dogg or someone like that on the INMWT list a couple of years ago? :lol:
March 30, 201610 yr The Frances song is gorgeous, would love to see it catch on but I don't see it happening.
March 30, 201610 yr Didn't they have Snoop Dogg or someone like that on the INMWT list a couple of years ago? :lol: Yeh Snoop Dogg is a ridiculous one but in fairness Chairlift are hardly well known, prob deserve to be in that list.
March 31, 201610 yr So I guess the reasoning for the minimal playlist update is because we're getting a new one next Tuesday, so this one will only be in effect for 5 days anyway.
March 31, 201610 yr Yeh I think so - will be interesting to see if its the same additions of songs to the C-B-A lists or a complete change in how songs are rotated at the station?!
March 31, 201610 yr Yeh I think so - will be interesting to see if its the same additions of songs to the C-B-A lists or a complete change in how songs are rotated at the station?! Wishful thinking, but it'd be nice to see an entire shake up. Possibly a bigger playlist, and maybe seeing songs go down the playlist, as with Radio 2, after they've peaked as more on air songs going straight onto the B/A list.
March 31, 201610 yr Author Wishful thinking, but it'd be nice to see an entire shake up. Possibly a bigger playlist, and maybe seeing songs go down the playlist, after they've peaked as more on air songs going straight onto the B/A list. I can't see the shake up being that radical. I think at the very least they'll add songs as soon as they're released rather than waiting a couple of weeks. Would be nice to have more songs going straight to the B/A list but I don't really see the point of moving songs down the playlist.
March 31, 201610 yr They did used to move songs up and down the playlist up until the early 2000s. The article about the changes did state that there is a new head of music so you never know and it would be appropriate considering the nature of the charts/releases now. I would abv be happy with the change. Also a bigger playlist like in the late 90s which used to have 20 songs on the A/B lists would be quality. A policy of dropping songs in the top 10 from the A list would be better to stop songs hanging around as much due to the slowness of the biggest hits with streaming would be encouraged. After all radio 1 is about creating hits and once they are hits they should make way for other tracks.
