My word, what has happened to Clubland?
Turned on tonight - Future Classics - Jessie J, Jason Derulo, Robin Thicke, Tinie Tempah etc etc Seriously every music channel and even radio station is the same nowadays! On top of that, I dont watch crap factor but it is ALWAYS the same songs sung in the auditions and performed. I have opted out the mainstream now. Plenty of good unknowns out there. |

The new Pure Dance is amazing , a true dance station with no shitty Top 40 and free of David Guetta/Avicii and SHM just proper dance with lots of obscure new artists and forgotten classics , this is what DAB and the Sky Radio section could do with originally the old owners of the brand used to have a slot on Sky many years ago..

Their figures are so low you can hardly blame them trying to go a bit more mainstream. They can't just keep playing N-Trance and Flip & Fill forever.
They should go freeview or something if they want more viewers. |

Their video request weekends always have some good stuff on the playlists (eg. http://www.aatw.com/?p=131) such as Basto, Above and Beyond, Gareth Emery, Sander van Doorn, Mat Zo and other artists who don't often get played on UK TV along with mainstream dance tracks. |

Most of the MTV music channels have small changes to the schedules from Tuesday 1st October (probably the same stuff as always, just under different names).
MTV Classic has a series of "...That Made MTV" such as "90s Classics That Made MTV". Hits and Base seem to have a few tweaked programme titles like "Nothing But Hits" becomes "Big Fat Hits" and "First Base" becomes "Super Base Beats". On Dance a few things move around, eg. instead of repeating the Official Dance Chart each weekday at 13:00 it's now on at more varied times. Finally it looks like MTV Rocks are having a Rocktober month, and VH1 are doing Poptober. There are no listings for MTV Music yet. New schedules kicking in on the 1st of the month have sometimes coincided with new looks, but there's no news about any new branding so far. |

I wonder if this was a mistake, something intended for Planet Pop maybe?

Some of the stuff has been good, but some of it embarrassing. At times their playlist reads a who's who of Urban with Guetta, Calvin Harris, Example and Avicii overload thrown in for good measure. It's just a shame that weekends are when i'm at my busiest. Quote:

All the same "new hits" and "classics" played in a slightly different order no doubt.

MTV Classic does play some unusual tracks if you're lucky enough to catch it running the standard playlist (eg. not a themed strand/chart). Prince - Little Red Corvette was on earlier.

More chance of it turning into MTV VH1 and BET UK will be turned to rubbish on the same day. BBC 6 Music is better then the music channels these days anyways,

Hasn't the programmer on MTV Classic changed recently? Perhaps this has had a positive impact.

As I understand it MTV Classic and VH1 swapped programmers a couple of months ago. Classic has improved since then and the general playlist slots are no longer full of classic rock and britpop.

Besides, I really don't see it as a good move to ditch classic britpop videos in favor of more Lionel Richie and other cheese, although this is obviously a matter of personal taste. Not to mention that seeing Mariah Carey videos approximately every 45 minutes is pure torture.

I think MTV Classic has possibly become even worse since the programmers swapped. As posted by Sylvester2007, it's quite shocking to see One Direction, Nicki Minaj and Thicke on a supposedly 'classic' channel. And I'm afraid those videos were scheduled intentionally.

Yes, Classic has played some better music of late, although the other week they played Blurred Lines and today in a 90's v 00's show played One Direction, Nicki Minaj and Moves Like Jagger in about 10 minutes.
