Later this summer Radio 1 will also launch a number of new shows on the BBC Sounds Radio 1 Dance stream.

Arielle Free will host Radio 1 Dance Morning, which will launch on 15 July and be available Monday to Sunday. Danny Howard will present Radio 1’s Dance Party Warm Up, a weekly show available every Thursday (6pm – 8pm) getting listeners ready for the weekend.

Pete Tong will curate his Essential History of Dance a weekly show (Saturdays, 7pm – 8pm) dedicated to telling the story of the Dance genre. There will also be a new evening specialist series which will see Radio 1 Dance collaborate with key Dance music labels Defected Records, HE.SHE.THEY. and DnB Allstars.

Additionally, Connor Coates will present a daily playlist – Radio 1 Dance – which will come from Northern Ireland, playing the best new, current and classic Dance tracks, and Charlie Hedges’ Radio 1 Dance Anthems will be streamed daily across afternoons.

I wonder if those Charlie Hedges dance anthems will be repeats of the ones on Saturdays or new programmes. She’s posted on Instagram so I wonder if they’ll be new editions.

Suspect it will be new editions but not live and interactive

Just a loads of blocks of classic anthems with Charlie recording links at 15 min intervals maybe which is a 5 min job after her weekday show - or a couple hours on a Friday maybe when they are not working

 

I expect Arielle to be live 9-12 weekdays but Dannys DP Warm up suspect will be a recorded show

New dance schedule kicks off on Monday at 9am and I see that Greg James is joining Arielle for the first hour! I assume this will be simulcast onto the Radio 1 Breakfast show and live (at least for the first show...?)  https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0021276

Still not clear to me if Arielle will be live each day or whether it will be pre-record or a mix.
