For the sake of argument let's say Radio6 has a very discerning listenership.

Richmond Avenal is indeed the name of the character in The IT Crowd. I mean look at that light flashing there, is that good or bad? I don't know.
Marvel at the fact they'll play ANYTHING on the radio, and maybe write to your MP complaining about the license fee

That is a bit curious that no one told/paid you for it though, there's gotta be a copyright infringement in there somewhere.

I'm going to bring down the goddamn BBC, hold them to ransom unless they bring back "Eldorado", the only soap opera I ever enjoyed.

You've got clout now.. Do it!
I've never seen Eldorado. I did see pieces of Eastenders and Coronation Street (Correy?) when I visited London, and they seemed to be of comparable quality to US gems like Guiding Light (that is, awful but of utmost entertainment value).

My mate got one of his d'n'b tunes played on Mary Anne Hobbes about five years ago, they sent him an email to let him know the night before, but he actually sent the track in on a CD-R to her. Did you send the BBC a link or a hard copy?

I don't know, as that show was last April, and you all had the Grinning Ape "MP3-LP" launch date marked in your diaries as Ape Rules Fools Day (ie April 1st) I guess some eager beaver BBC work experience researcher browsing for "freaky shit on the net to play on the show" picked up on the hype, or Stuart Macone is bill_hicks on XLT, or maybe as Spoilt Victorian Child Records sent an email "press release" at the time they followed up on it, but I don't know as they don't tell me anything, not that there's anything to tell I don't imagine.

It is a good track. I love that opening flourish. It sounds like a familiar radio or television cue at the top of the hour, kind of thing.

I wonder how many obscure web-tunes get get played on BBC radio. I listen to a lot of their dancey/"alternative" type shows and I've never heard an announcer say "Well this is just a random tune we found on a website, but it's quite good, honest." It's usually a proper release you can actually buy, or occasionally some demo or promo sent in to them.

They're all great. Thickly-layered, semi-melodic aural brutality (in a good way).
