ANOTHER STUDY IN CONTRASTS. The view from my work window has certainly changed. We wrapped up our Korean contracts in 2002 as the world's 5th-biggest city pulsed outside where I spent my 9-to-5 (actually, my 1.30-to-9.30), while a year later sees us facing the end of 2003 with a distinctly less frenetic pace of life evident from my desk. |

SS-SS-STUDIO! Since I last worked in the broadcast radio industry back in 1997 (bloody hell - it's been a whole SIX YEARS!!!), I've not done anything radio-related, apart from the online expat net-only station I set up in Korea in 2002. Well, that's all changed from here on because I've joined the local hospital broadcaster BHBS. Hospital radio is a hugely-important part of the industry here and is how many well-known commercial DJs got their first break. It's really nice to be surrounded again by people who are manic about radio, and it reminds me a bit of when I was at our campus station RMR back in the late 80s and early 90s, and then working to set up new stations in South Africa. Though I'd be lying if I said that it wasn't really difficult to take a back seat in an industry I know so much about. Once a guy's been part of a team that's driven a station, it's strange to be just a drone, but at least it's the right kind of drone, and I like being part of the radio buzz again so bring it on! |
