This is sad news. I just read on Twitter that Mary Anne Hobbs is leaving BBC Radio 1. Read her full statement on Myspace.
I really hope BBC gets a good replacement since the Experimental/Breezeblock show has been my favorite radio show for many year and it were the show that made me love dubstep.
Will you miss Mary Anne Hobbs?

This is so sad 🙁
Some things happen for a reason.
The torch held for so long by Mary, will continue to burn ever brighter in the hands of Toddla-t whom I firmly believe shares the very same passion & dedication to the scene.
This is a very exciting time.
Mary has secured her shows legacy as well as Toddla’s future with Radio 1.
If fate exists, then this is destiny.
Respect and love!
Hey Dave.
I was under the impression that Benji B would take over the show in October. Do you have some new information?
We love you Mary Anne. You made the difference.
“Dubstep Warz”changed my music and my life, you will be missed!!
It’s a tragedy. I don’t know, how I will keep track of the electronic music world without the weekly update of MAH! Really sad!
Will I miss Mary Anne Hobbs? Definitely! Maximum respect and much much love goes to her from all over the scene…
Oh dear, where am I to go now for my weekly electronic fix =(.
OMFG shiiit ho noez !! i’m crying a little bit.
this is so sad. i don’t know anyone who can replace her. she managed to get some great sessions from some great artists…. 🙁

Wow.

It would be very tough for BBC to find someone replacing her.
Very sad news for the music community. Totally respect her decision. She will be sorely, sorely, sorely missed.
I think I just died a little bit inside. 🙁 🙁 🙁
