  HUW STEPHENS VS DAEDELUS THROWS A FIT IN THE UK [ALMOST] | FLY | EUROPE: CITY GUIDES/EVENTS
Radio 1and#8217;s Huw Stephens from Cardiff and your humble correspondent wouldnand#8217;t seem to have much in common, but thereand#8217;s a couple of things we agree on.
I met Huw Stephens the other day and although he’d just done a gig in Leeds, we were both still buzzing about the Bestival festival the week beforehand.
Huw’s concession on that side of things was to wear one of those miniature party hats, admitting that fancy dress isn’t his thing.

 BBC NEWS | UK | Wales | DJ Huw offers 'Sound Advice'   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Huw Stephens, who presents programmes and band sessions on BBC Radio 1, has been taking part in a music educational roadshow in the Coal Exchange in Cardiff.
Stephens, who is from Cardiff, has been DJing since he was 18, and believes the best way for bands to get their material on air is to send in demos and continuously showcase their work.
Huw shared the platform with the lead singer of the 70s punk band The Undertones, Fergal Sharkey, and Greg Haver the producer and engineer for the Manic Street Preachers.

 No Rock&Roll Fun   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Huw Stephens was the first of the trio to take to the air, with the sort of remit that most people who seldom listened to Peel assumed was the extent of his show - rocky, alty, indie type stuff.
Huw does have a lovely radio voice, and although he does have a tendency to use words like "tuneage" he's quite a warm presenter.
And Huw isn't a bad host, he just needs to tell the difference between what's going to be useful and what merely fills - a clue would be if you find yourself reading a sticker and saying "I couldn't say that better myself" then it's probably something that need not be said at all.

On air Stephens said the choice was between Belinda Carlisle's We Dream The Same Dream or the first band he ever bought, Crowded House, but instead he settled on Me Animal from the Suicidal Birds.
If Stephens was in any doubt of how well he was going down with the regular Radio 1 listeners, emails into the show seemed to give a seal of approval.
Good luck and congratulations messages came in from as far as Belgium and as close to Stephens as his old flatmate Rhiannon as she listened to the show in Canton, Cardiff.

 The London Line : Peel back to pure musical sensations
When John Peel died, up went the cry: "Who will champion the slightly out-there, the pretty strange and the downright unlistenable?" After a decent interlude, Radio 1 announced the answer: Huw Stephens, Ras Kwame (the self-appointed "heavyweight champion of sound") and Rob da Bank.
Peel played anything - rap, reggae, techno, earnest young men with guitars, scratchy 78s of music hall stars, and 1930s dance bands - as long as it interested him.
Of the others, Stephens is breathless and inclined to cliche (on a visit to Liverpool, everything was "legendary"), while Kwame doesn't talk much and plays records prefaced with a jingle explaining "the next record may contain strong language, so please retune if you're easily offended".
