Have been listening to Radio city when I was in Bangalore.(2004 - 2007) and now my listening buds feast on the wonderful radio station in Mumbai!
Must say that at the time when Bangalore Radio city was at its peak, a lot of good RJs left it to join other radio station, and for once I did miss them.especially Rohit Jayakaran.
Now, Back to Mumbai!
The Good
The quality of RJ is quite good in Mumbai.you do not get the'accent issues' when the Jockies speak in Hindi, english or Marathi
The concept, the programs and the execution is all too good. Morning wakes up to wonderful songs and a lot of good talk on Radio. Dont know why but the execution is so crisp that you tend to use the word'soothing' a lot when you think of this radio station.
The innovative quizzes and contests which these guys come up is simply mind boggling and cute at times
The little attention to detail. for example - I remember radio city would slow its jingle in the night time.and would play the faster version in the day and evening time! Whereas the other channels would loudly bark in your ears as if its so cool.!
The Not so Good
Only one point comes to mind(i.e) - sometimes there is way tooo much promotion and advertisements on air.but we cant help that since that is one of the few revenue streams for any radio station.
Some great programs
Babbar Sher(No doubt!)
City city bang bang
Ding Dong Mumbai
Evevings with Praveen
Goldie Gill Golden English speaking School
The list is actually longer but I do not want to bore you guys with too much talk! Check it out yourself and am sure you will come out beaming!
Please rate my review and leave your comments.Much appreciated!
