R1 to R2 transfers

Sounds like they’ve made some presentation changes, the power intros and TOH sound a bit different

[forde52]

I was just about to say sounds like a new set of voiceovers and imaging is creeping in today

[Jono]

They are giving a little bit more of a grown-up vibe, I think.

[forde52]

I do think the last 4 main VOs were the best in a long time (probably why they made it 6 and a bit years), but from what I’ve heard today it does sound like there’s only 2 main VOs now.

Really like the new stuff sounds a lot more slick

Brand new Imaging for the Chart as well today! 

[Jono]

Eight new cuts and "many many mixouts" according to Luke Berry on Instagram.

I really like it! A nice refresh, the logo is good too! 

I wasn’t really a big fan of the Alt version of Scotts last package that they did for Jack (apart from the Drone and the Number 1 Ramp).

I hope the 8 different cuts get some airtime!

I read there was a big on-air discussion about jingles on Greg's show this morning.

Everyone was requesting power intros and being played the new versions which have only been in use for a couple of weeks.

Who's old enough to remember the days of the 1tros? First introduced November 2007, used extensively throughout 2008 and 2009, phased out by mid 2010. They were truly amazing

Love your YouTube channel!

 

These 1tros were just the best - Radio 1 really needs to bring back this sonic logo for its station sound

Sorry! I don't really check here often - but yes i agree! I think Radio 1 back then was perfect and was amazing. I really am tempted to start a new channel filled with random BBC Radio 1/Radio 2 shows I have archived from 2007-2018! Full shows, one place 🤤 what a dream!

Maybe it was just late-00's and early-10's culture then that made it even better, but I swear the music they played back then too were WAY nicer and more varied!

Thank you so much for the love on 4t8 ❤️
