Radio 1 Playlist

The playlists on BBC radio 1 do not really vary as they play a lot of the big hit songs at the time very frequently for example they play the A-list band of songs around a about 25 times a week and then the B-list is about 15 times a week and these list involve around 20 artists/ bands on each lists so that is  a fair amount of the music space/ time taken up by only 40 artists/bands making it quite hard for smaller less established bands to get much of a look in. Yet when they do it is in the middle of the day when most people are at work/ school or university so if they try a new song and people do not like it then it will not get as much hate. However, with this comes less recognition of the bands as the fair majority are not even listening to the radio at that time so if the song is good it will not get recognized,  Due to the fact that people will miss the song. Here is an example of  the playlist on Friday 9th February 2018:

That is just two bands and the more irrelevant at the time the acts are the less they get played or i9n this sense the further they slip down the bands. However the there are two separate bands with the BBC introducing which gets played up to a maximum of 5 times a week depending how the response of the audience that is the list for the new artist/bands and you also have tune of the week which is played the same a the A-list so 25 times a week.

The way in which the genre of music on the more relevant lists in A and B are all modern hip-hop or chart music so this associates  itself with the younger generation of 18-30 as there is no older music is all currant so that it fits with the modern loop. This then entices the younger audiences to listen as it their stereotypical “type” of music that they listen to. Then this playlist only changes when a new artist brings out a new song that everyone is going crazy for so it then slips into the A-list then a song form the A-list falls out and slips down the pecking order causing a domino effect.

What are the current listening figures for Radio 1 Breakfast show? On October 26th 2017, it was reported that the show recorded 4.93 million listeners between July and September- down from 5.5 million last quarter, a record low.

The controller of BBC radio 1 is Ben Cooper, this can be suggested by there has been a recent dip in the viewing as ideas have seemed to have dipped in recent years.

The BBC is funded principally by an annual television licence fee which is charged to all British households, companies, and organisations using any type of equipment to receive or record live television broadcasts and iPlayer catch-up.

The radio 1 try to be distinctive by doing weird game shows and having live guests in to change up the schedules and so you almost have a live concert on your radio to attract all audiences and can the promote their own festivals if they have a good live act on their live lounge as almost a preview for their festival.

BBC doesn't make much money as they are all government funded so do not have sponsors and make money from adverts. where as commercial radio stations get money from adverts and sponsors making them money but have bigger pauses in between music so people tend to turn over to BBC radio stations.

It is seen as the main BBC station to bring listeners live and up to date news stories as they happen. Regarding sports, the station often has viewers ring up, or guests in the studio to analyse recent sporting fixtures.

The station has a multi-purpose to entertain, inform and involve.

Radio 6:

The remit of BBC 6 Music is to entertain lovers of popular music with a service that celebrates the alternative spirit in popular music from the 1960s to the present day.

Its programmes juxtapose current releases outside the mainstream, including music from the BBC Sound Archive. It should provide context for the music it plays, and support live music and new artists.
Programs on this station:

- Laura Laverne.

The sites that are most clearly following their PSB remits most clearly in my opinion are BBC radio 4 and BBC radio 5 live. Radio 4 has taken on a strong reputation as being a relaxing radio station with a variety of conversation to retain the same target audience year after year with very minimalist changes to their programmes despite drastic changes in technology. Secondly, BBC radio 5 live has stayed to true to it's sport fans by not adding anything different and still having lots of interactivity with listeners.
