This blog grew up out of a radio show called BBC Introducing: Fresh On The Net which hosted by myself on BBC Radio 6 Music from October 2007 to April 2012. During that time ? and since ? I encountered many friends and colleagues who shared my enthusiasm for new music ? and a number of them have since teamed up with me here at Fresh On The Net. Our mission is to promote independent musicmaking in all its forms: to connect listeners with new music and musicians with new listeners
