The Arrow - Ofcom Licensing

I want to hear new stuff, I don’t want to hear stuff I’ve already got, I’m looking to hear
some new music.
Reaction to the music pods
Nine
music pods were played during the focus groups to get and idea of the types of
music
that would appeal to the Manchester audience.
Classic
Rock
This genre was
well received by all, and it was felt that this was their kind of music. Many
felt the tracks were classic, building the base of a good collection of music. This is the
core of what they see as good quality music by talented
artists.
They are all superstars.
They are well known
people and they have been going for a while.
Bright and breezy and you have just got up and are ready for the day type music.
Modern
Rock
The majority
enjoyed this music; however felt they knew very little about the genre.
I know
every single track there, but I couldn’t give you the title and I couldn’t give you
the category, but I like it.
Rock ‘n’ Roll
Many commented on how much they listen to this kind of music. It was felt, however,
that this kind of music belonged in to specialist show.
A lot of music I listen to is from the 60s.
In a little programme of its own. Say a half an hour.
Punk
This pod had a positive response, particularly for those who were fans of the music and
were growing up
when this music came out.
The good stuff from the punk era transcends everything and I think it is great music.
I reckon, like everyone says, you could drop a Pistols song in and I bet half this room
would probably turn it up.
Ska
This
divided the respondents. Those who knew this genre loved it and reminisce about it.
Those who
didn’t know it very well still wanted to hear it.
It takes me
back somewhere and the clubs that I used to go to and friends and stuff,
because that was music that was in my age group at the time.
I don’t know much about it, but every time I hear it I think it is just wicked.
