OK that sounds a bit extreme but for a while there's been a poster in Studio 4 advertising a jingle service from one of our students designed to catch the eyes of our presenters at Smoke Radio.
I found out earlier today that this happens to be one of my flatmates from last year who was responsible for many sleepless nights in Flat 31, and am rather nervous about speaking to him with regards to his proposal.
I'm sure no harm is intended but the fact that he hasn't been involved directly with the station beforehand makes me feel slightly daunted.
Stepping aside, I once again sat in on Adam and Zo's Shuffle show where there theme this week was based around John Cages "4:33" in which all the tracks were 4 minutes and 33 seconds in length. A possible entry for next years SRAs or even the Turner Prize took place when the duo broadcast a Jay Z track with all the volume levels at their lowest resulting in 4:33 of silence which we could get away with on air having no emergency tape!
Still pretty busy for tonight as Sarah and Khalia came into record a promo for their new "R&B Lounge" show on Smoke and I've got to edit it all together. I also decided to record a much awaited promo for my own show although I doubt it will be as funny (or embarrassing in my case) as "I'll See You Wednesday!"

Fantastic!
Adam and Zo should have just said at the end of the Jay Z track...
"Well, yes, that was actually John Cage's composition, "4:33".....
I would've believed them....
