Indigo FM hits Bangalore

Finally some relief from some real crappy FM programming here in Bangalore. Indigo FM the first station that plays only international (read english) tracks is here. So no more listening to crappy Kannada & Hindi RJ's speaking a combo of some 10 different languages. No more listening to artifical dialects from RJ's which nobody in the real world speaks. Here's the station where the RJ's speak only english & play only english music. The intellectual crowd of the Bangalore has been insulted enough and bombarded with some pretty mediocre local language music all in the name of some market research survey. I think DJ rohit barker puts it best @ their website where he explains the rationale behind starting Indigo FM . Great job guys. Keep up the good work. I for sure will be tuning in everyday.

Hiren I agree. But speaking some fake accent which no one in the real world uses is not cool at all. I would appreciate if the RJ's spoke pure "any language". But speaking a combo of some 10 different languages just to please a majority audience is not OK with me. As the saying goes "I don't know what it takes to succeed but the sure way to failure is to try to please evereyone." That's what FM radio in Bangalore was and I am glad things are slowly changing now.
