 'Dear Friends, 
  
 It is with great regret and a pain in my heart that I break the news today that as and from the 31st December 2008, Nightshift is to be taken off air. 
  
 Channel 6 was bought over by TV3 a few months ago and the new owners have made the decision to remove Nightshift from next year's schedule. 
  
 The very last show will air from 10pm – 1am on New Years Eve. 
  
 On a personal level, may I say that Michelle and I are completely bewildered, and absolutely ... |  |  |  | 0 | 2214 | 12/9/2008 3:49 AM |

 “There’s a bit of an underground vibe about 2XM in that it’s totally, 100 about the music,” proffers 2XM Scheduler Mark McCabe. “It’s not, ‘Hey, we want to be a commercial DJ like on 98 or 2FM’. It’s going to be a very different sort of radio station, with people who are prepared to fly by the seat of their pants and try something new.

										Can anyone recommend any good ones. From what I hear iTunes is not great for sound quality & their copyright protection means that you have to burn the MP3s to CD, then rip them back to your CD to remove it (I could be wrong though - I read that on a forum). I'm not looking for anything majorly obscure - I've to DJ at a party next month & I need to get some rat pack stuff, some old indie tunes, a bit of Elvis & some newer chart stuff like Kings of Leon & Estelle. |  |  |  | 14 | 4000 |  by  starbelgrade  10/13/2008 7:39 AM |

 TRANS AM (USA)  support from PROSTITUTE 
  
 Friday 24th October 
 The Village 
  
 Formed in 1990 near Washington DC, Trans Am’s multi-instrumental and varied approach to song-writing over the years have confounded many of their critics. 
  Rising to attention on the back of the post-rock/math-rock movement through their association with bands such as Tortoise, they demonstrated an eagerness to depart from the classic rock script, incorporating elec... |  |  |  | 0 | 2083 | 10/10/2008 7:31 AM |
