About Me |

Copy the code from the box below to add my banner to your myspace page! Hi all! I present on BBC Radio One's exclusive new music show in the Nations, in Wales every Thursday night at 7.30pm. My BBC Radio One Homepage. You can also catch me DJing all over the place with my sisters in sound The Vinyl Vendettas. We annually host the Radio One stage at the Carling Reading Festival and spend the day enthusing over tea and tunes. |

I'd like to meet:Please send demos to Bethan Elfyn,BBC RADIO ONE, LLANDAF, CARDIFF, CF5 2YQ. |

Music:.. MySpace Music Lists at MySpace Toolbox ! |
|
Television:Trying to cut down ... but still watching, 24, Desperate Housewives, and Love Film Dvds. |
|
Books:Just finished the infuriating but knowledgable 'Words and Music' by Paul Morley, infuriating because it lists and lists and lists key events that've changed the musical landscape, for example 323 'The spread of Christianity spurs the development of European Music', 1929 'Les Paul invents the guitar', 1984 'Band Aid'... etc etc... but also an amazing catalogue of events - go on test me! For lighter reading, Ian McEwan's Saturday. A book I picked up in the airport recently - nothing much happens but its eloquently told from the point of view of a brain surgeon on the eve of the Iraq war! Hmm! Next stop: Stuart Maconie's Cider With Roadies. Did that, and enjoyed the early memories of the Northern Soul scene in the North of England, and Maconie's athletic prowess busting moves. Since then, I've been taking my time over John Peel's biography - having the honour to do the same kind of work is inspiring in itself, but I find him all the more incredible when I consider that no one else was interested in new music back then. These days you fall over unsigned podcasts left, right, and centre, but then... he was unique. His writing style is absolutely amazing too, and its just a crying shame that he didn't get to finish the book. |

Heroes:Pass along this small tribute, copy this code. |
