Guerrilla Radio

My friend Matt emailed me a picture of HMV Oxford Street, where yesterday every DAB radio was tuned to Amazing Radio. A few weeks ago, an Amazing artist went into his local store and re-tuned all their DAB radios too.  There seems to be a bit of a guerrilla campaign going on; not so much ‘Flash Mob’, as ‘Flash Knob’.  I wonder which shop will be the next one to turn (or be turned) on to Amazing Radio.

Mind you, the Guardian says we are ‘the people’s radio station’ and Time Out says we’re ‘nobly democractic’ – some Direct Action goes with the territory! – especially as Amazing is the only radio station you can listen to in business premises without a PRS licence.  But then I wonder: where next?  Libraries? Starbucks? The House of Commons?  Welcome to the People’s Republic of Music ;-)

    Fair play, but the reason every dab radio is tuned to Amazing is because it’s the first station on the dial! hahaha. I love the idea of your station, good luck with it, but your voiceover dude needs a rod up his arse!

    Wonder if that’s me?! Thanks for the feedback. Send in a voiceover demo yourself if you’d like – all welcome. I like the ‘first on the dial’ joke, but I’m not sure what Absolute Radio would say about that theory! All the best, Paul Campbell (founder)
