BBC Radio 1 today announced the new line-up for BBC Radio 1’s Residency - the strand that brings listeners the biggest names in dance music, from the underground to the arena - with music producers Steve Angello, Oliver Heldens and Nina Kraviz amongst the names that will be taking over Radio 1’s airwaves from January 2016.

Dub Phizix & Strategy and Kode9 will also be joining the Residency team.

Radio 1’s Residency incorporates two shows on a Thursday night - between 10pm and midnight, and midnight to 1am - and features some of the best DJs and producers of the moment.

George Fitzgerald, James Blake and Heidi will continue to form a part of the line-up of DJs on rotation.

The new line-up marks the end of DJ Skream’s regular slot on BBC Radio 1’s Residency, which he has been part of since September 2014.

The line-up is as follows:

First Thursday of the month, beginning 7 January
10pm: George FitzGerald
12am: Dub Phizix & Strategy

Second Thursday of the month, beginning 14 January
10pm: James Blake
12am: Nina Kraviz

Third Thursday of the month, beginning 21 January
10pm: Steve Angello
12am: Oliver Heldens

Fourth Thursday of the month, beginning 28 January

Steve Angello says: “Not a day has gone by without me thinking about the show. I’m ready for a new year with some incredible new music! Let’s get on this journey on January 21st!”

Oliver Heldens says: "I’m really honoured that from now on I have my own Residency on BBC Radio 1! I hope you all tune in and listen every month.”

Rhys Hughes (Head of Programmes, BBC Radio 1 and 1Xtra) says: “I’m absolutely delighted that Steve Angello will be re-joining BBC Radio 1 - a huge DJ joining the biggest international dance music radio brand. I’m also thrilled that names of the calibre of Nina Kraviz, Oliver Heldens, Kode9 and Dub Phizix & Strategy are joining the Residency roster.

“I would like to thank Skream for his fantastic contribution to Radio 1 over the last few years and wish him all the best for the future.”
