Not all that niche I guess but the station I have on all day when working is https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/live:bbc_6music

Just brilliant presenters, many of whom are famous in their own right (Jarvis Cocker, Iggy Pop, Guy Garvey, Tom Robinson, Marc Riley, Craig Charles for instance). It’s an alternative station with a quirky and eclectic playlist each week made up of the newest alternative releases but also plays everything from metal to hip hop to ambient to drum & bass. You never know what’s coming next and that’s brilliant.

The presenters all have a massive passion for music which shines through in the programmes and I’ve found so so much new music from listening.

The other thing is that a bit back, the BBC were going to close 6 down and the listeners made such a fuss that it stayed around. You often hear the presenters mention this and how much they appreciate the listeners going into bat for them. It just feels like they’re your friends lol.
