Radio 1 is bringing in six new DJs to play on The Residency.

The new show is being championed by Pete Tong who initially invited each DJ to record demos at Radio 1.

The Residency has been designed to ensure Radio 1 continues to champion the most important new dance music genres from the UK, whilst also giving new and emerging talent their first chance to broadcast on national radio.

Each DJ will play once every six weeks for a total of six shows. After 36 weeks the entire line-up will be reviewed by Pete Tong with possible DJ additions, new genres and changes made to the mix.

The Residency will take over from Dreem Teem's Soulful Sessions which is ending its run on the station. Spoony will continue his weekend breakfast show. Timmi Magic and Mikee B will leave the station in mid April.

You'll be able to hear the new show on
Sunday mornings 3am-5am from May 1st.

The first six DJs will be (in order of rotation):

• * Eddie Halliwell ? Across the board from trance, techno to hard dance
  
  
  * Nic Fanciulli ? Acid house and techno
  
  
  * Jon O'Bir ? Progressive/Uplifting trance
  
  
  * Kutski ? Underground hard dance/Hardcore
  
  
  * Crissy Criss ? Drum & Bass/Jungle
  
  
  * Trophy Twins ? All genres of house, from funky to tribal

I think he's just sponsoring/hosting, I don't think he's going to be performing on this show.

Re: The Residency

Re: The Residency

For some reason the Radio 1 website lists Eddie Halliwell as being the host tonight. According to other places on the site, the show was to start last weekend with Halliwell being the first host and Fanciulli being the host this week. Can anyone in England shed some light on who the host will be tonight? The show starts at 3am London time.
