That's sad. I hope someone who is willing to break the mould steps up, otherwise there'll be a void of quality airtime!

[brokedjs]

Hopefully taking some time to out learn how to beatmatch,

Good girl and did good for dubstep on the radio but least enjoyable live set I have ever seen

There better be a new show for leftfeild dance/whatever.

??? seems a bit of a weird decision? I wonder how / why she came to it?

[FackOff]

but...her voice..

[dav.id]

sexy sexy voice

A massive massive loss to National Radio. She will be missed.

Loefah recommended she goes to Rinse...and I hope I hear her there one day...even if it's on the odd occasion.

She's done SO much for electronic music...and what she has done for this scene, well, it's hardly even measurable.

Big up the Queen of Dubstep...I hope she finds happiness in her new venture. She is Irreplacable.

Lots of comments on her Twitter recently about her being too old for the flog from Sheffield to london and all the travelling. Maybe more time up north.

Madness. So grateful to have hosted for her. Woman is some different legend.

sad news on one hand but probably best for her.
gives an even bigger value to her breezblock/R1experimental shows.
I ll definitely miss these late wednesday nights/ thursday mornings.
The girl has so much passion and I can't wait to see her spin again.
On radio her voice, selections and her passion made these shows mystical.
I hope she comes back.. (maybe with her own internet audio/video show? The BBC videos from the studio rocked!)

Listening to Dubstep Warz Breezblock show atm. Mythical

THANK YOU MAH - ALWAYS LOVE PEACE & RESPECT

She did alot for the scene

but to be honest

she did my suede in

[yooamatwa]

Wow...honestly i feel quite sad, might as well cancel my tv license now that radio show was the only thing worth paying for on the bbc.
I guess she couldn't do it for ever, just hoped she would stick around for a while longer.
Well what ever she goes on to i wish her the best of luck and enough love and respect.

Bummer

[upadeg]

Sad to see her leave! A lot of artists i listen to now i would never have heard had it not been for her!
Its hard to see where the bbc goes from here now. Who could possibly replace her?

[mrbeatnick]

very upset. one of the few people in the network who actually cared about what they played, invested time and energy into bringing forth the good music, and poured love and encouragement into some very marginal and isolated art. Words are really not enough. Fuck the bbc for their stupid late night specialist music policy and i hope someone gets shouted at in the corridors of power for this, because it literally is one of the greatest shows in the history of the bbc.
