You pick the tracks on 6Music

As you might know, to finish Now Playing @6Music each week we give the reigns of the show to an individual listener who picks six tracks, gives us reasons for their choices before we forge them into a reflective mix leading into Tom Ravenscroft.



We have had some wicked examples so far – but we want more, and most importantly we want yours! You can send us your selections in any which way you chose as long as we get the information we need. The simplest way might be to click on the ‘Your Playlist’ tab above and fill in the form, but equally you could drop us an e-mail with the tracklist written, or maybe a Spotify or We7 link to your playlist.

You could even burn the tracks to CD and write us a letter – the choice is really down to you.



To give you an example of what we need – if I were to curate one I would go for...



Name – Will Gilgrass

Town – Oxford

Playlist Name – Musical Metamorphism

Playlist Description – Six tracks demonstrating the development of my personal musical tastes ranging from when I was nine through to the present day.



Tracks

The Verve – Bittersweet Symphony

The first album I ever bought was Urban Hymns and this was the track which made me buy it.



Groove Armada – If Everybody Looked the Same

At V 2004 my cousins took me to see Groove Armada and hearing this track was the moment I knew my outlook was about to change.



Basement Jaxx – Red Alert

The next day at the same festival this confirmed it - I was hooked on dance music.



The Fratellis – Creepin up the Backstairs

The first record and first band I went into school and told everyone I had discovered, after listening to Steve Lemacq on Radio 1 while doing homework one night.



Fake Blood – Blood Smashing (Fake Blood Theme)

This dominated the tracklist on my first student radio shows and was the enigma everybody wanted to uncover.



Gill Scott Heron & Jamie xx – I’ll Take Care of You

Four minutes and 42 seconds which makes everything better.



Check it out on Spotify and tell us yours to get it played on the radio!
