Very nice. Well, people on here were saying that 1tros needed a bit of a shakeup, and it's better this than them adding 3 notes for BBC...

You can also slightly hear it at 1:05 in this: http://www.music4.com/musicservices/catalogue/625/bbc-radio-1/1tros-october-2009.html

Not as strong, but clearly it's Radio 1 being sung.

They've not massively made it a sung, they had just followed the vocoded voice within the song.

Can't seem them doing it very often. I'm quite glad Radio 1 has toned down the amount of 1tros they use, they where getting played too often at one point.

The the Music 4 Montage VOs are the old R1 VOs (i.e. Jody latham & the old lady (forgot her name!))

i just think Music 4 aren't bothered about changing them as it isn't really beneficial for them, the old ones do the job.

Becky Whitcroft I think. It's something like that anyway!

thats the one! Yeah they were getting slightly monotonous every half hour. Lie the new versions of them though, i personally think they will change all the time to the sung ones but maybe not use them as much as they have in the past

I doubt they'll use them full time. In the two examples they've used it for, it's because it fits in well with the song.

I think it's a bit weird they've gone from promoting 'BBC Radio 1' to creating new 1tros with just 'Radio 1' in it. But I rather like them so I'm not complaining.

A very small amount of 1tros have alternative versions created so its up to the station sound team to decide which ones to use. For example 'Good Girls Go Bad' and 'Watcha Say' has a sung version and a version minus vox. I think the ones used so far fit well with the song, and lets face it the sonic logo of ray-de-oh-one is far more catchy and memorable than if BBC was tagged on the front. The jingle tune has been around for almost 13 years now as it first aired in some imaging in 1997, so its pretty well established. If it aint broke, don't fix it!

they haven't made new ones. They've just put sung the current ones.

Yes but it's still a different direction whereas I assumed they wouldn't after adding 'BBC' into the name.

It's actually nothing new. They used some auto tune 1tros in June 2008:

      What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.

      Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.

      He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard!

      The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.

      I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly.

      Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...

      Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.

      Do these audience figures reflect Jordan leaving and Jamie replacing him?

      I think Jamie is really starting to settle into the role well. He comes across as really warm, and genuinely invested in the listeners when he’s talking to them which is nice. I think he’s building a really great relationship with Vicki and Katie too. His recent great company podcast is great too, where he has quite a deep chat with someone new each week. He’s clearly a very genuine person and I think he has some real potential.

      Most probably. But do wonder what the future of the relax themed programmes will be when they officially wind down that service.

      I think it's just to replace Wind Down presents... which was in that timeslot, and I'm guessing Chillout Anthems was just a buffer since it'll still be played at 06:00 on Sundays.

      With listening on the U.K. for the industry in general it is good overall as most stations reach is on the up and shows radio to be more sustainable and stable outlet than linear televisions channels. This RAJAR I think with the increase shift to DAB+ the BBC will be able to say it has it’s audiences for the proposed new stations it wishes to launch and think the new innovative ideas that it seems Jack himself can take credit for on the new music show think the younger under 30 gen z demographic could increase se in that time-slot.
