Another coup for Resonance FM!
MIXING IT: TERMINATED AT BBC RADIO 3 RESUSCITATED ON RESONANCE 104.4FM
“In February 2007 stalwart new music programme Mixing It was inexplicably dropped by BBC Radio 3 Controller Roger Wright after 16 years of broadcasting. This was perceived by many as a grave moment for composers and performers of experimental musics, since a major highway to mainstream audiences had been denied, it is also reflective of the increasing conservatism that BBC Radio 3 has been infected by since the appointment of Roger Wright as Controller. However, Mixing It is back on the air courtesy of Resonance FM.
“Resonance FM has always welcomed refugees – with regular programmes by Somalian, Congolese, Iranian and Serbian groups. We’re equally happy to provide a haven for broadcasters expelled by the BBC,” explains programming director Ed Baxter, who recently wrote a Guardian feature about the influence of “Mixing It”.
Mixing It’s first broadcast goes out on Wednesday February 28th 2007
from 11:00 – 12:00pm.”
