Coinciding with Tom Robinson stepping down from the BBC Introducing Mixtape, I’ll no longer be handling the day-to-day running of Fresh On The Net after seven years. That honour goes to Del @platinummind.bsky.social It can be A LOT, so please be kind to him as he gets to grips with things. Cheers!

I've got 102 contenders for 12 slots on a playlist. It's going well...

Writing about music is so arduous, and oh, the nonsense I've spouted today already (mostly edited out)… Top tip for artists: it's notable that successful artists always include info about themselves and their music, and that helps people like me tell their story.

Storm Agnes through the kitchen window. Quite windy, a bit wet.

Spare half hour anyone, to help us out?! 🎧

And Lammo going in late October… blimey. Huw Stephens completely deserving of the slot (BBC Radio Wales will be gutted).

Big yay for Cillian Murphy return. Massive yay to the passing of The Bland Madonna. Thumbs up for Don Letts on a Saturday night. Now if they can just ditch all those awful backwards-looking "Forever" shows, I might start liking 6 Music again. Hmm.

The incredibly annoying Allison Sheridan saying how amazingly great I am (probably) — jump to 10:10 if the link don't work…

Today's events remind me that, quite often, the dumbest people I encounter in my work usually believe they're the smartest (and vice versa!)

One dumb move after another! Twitter grew thanks to breaking news, so he took away verification of trusted sources. It could be bad because of mis/disinformation, so he weakened moderation and made the algorithm rank people who pay higher. He obviously just wants a personal mouthpiece for his crap.

Love the familiar feel here!
