MAH bows out with Kode 9 & Burial
Between the hours of 2 and 4am London time last night, the husky tone of Mary Anne Hobbs was heard on Radio One for the last time and she bowed out in fine style with a specially commissioned mix from Hyperdub boss Kode 9 and Burial.
As previously mentioned, Hobbs called time on 14 years of broadcasting at Radio One last month to take up a position at Sheffield University Forge Media Hub and to spend more time rambling on the surrounding Seven Hills if recent press photography is any indication. 1Extra DJ and Deviation promoter Benji B was announced as her successor last week.
Head over to Gorillla Vs Bear to download the typically brilliant Kode9 vs Burial mixup and check Hobb’s website for a thankyou list that reads like the best Oscar speech ever.
