I can’t believe it! They are closing down one of the best shows on radio! 🙁
“Running since 2005, the 6 Mix has been home to a whole host of resident DJs across the years – most recently Jamie xx, Erol Alkan, Groove Armada, Goldie, Derrick May, DJ Yoda, Rob da Bank and Andrew Weatherall. In this final edition Nemone hosts a two hour retrospective show, featuring some of the best guest mixes from the past 10 years. There’s another chance to hear mixes from Massive Attack, Caribou, Grandmaster Flash, Moby, Terry Farley’s Acid House special and Thom Yorke’s show from 2011.”

Such a shame 🙁
Just checked the BBC Media Centre for more information on the changes. What’s going to happen is that Iggy Pop returns for a permanent weekly show Friday 7-9pm, and Tom Ravenscroft, previously 7-10pm, gets pushed back to 9pm-midnight.
I agree with you, this was one of the best shows on radio anywhere in the world… it has long ago replaced the Essential Mix a my mix show of choice, thanks to my change in tastes. Much more diverse, surprising, interesting.
What are they thinking? I don’t really get it. It can’t be for personnel reasons because it was an anthology programme with rotating DJs, and likely it isn’t financial, seeing as they probably could even have most of the DJs pre-record the mixes in their own studios.
Iggy Pop will return as a permanent DJ from 10 April. His show will be from 7- 9PM, so Tom Ravenscroft’s slot pushed back to 9pm till midnight. 6Mix has been axed!
