FLO DILL
It takes a special kind of person to do breakfast radio. Turning up is one thing. Being a consistent source of good cheer and good choons is quite another. Being capable of all this as well as a wide variety of other music related activities 100% qualifies as Inner Varnika material. Hencely, we welcome UK import Flo Dill to the IVX festivities.
Helping people worldwide overcome the daily vicissitudes, soundtracking the morning mortal coil from her homebase at NTS in London, Ms Monday-to-Wednesday Flo Dill will be a familiar voice to many of you, albeit experienced as a graveyard shift here in Oz. For the most important meal of the day, Flo serves up a delicious and nutritious blend of styles and sounds, including but not limited to leftfield pop, synth pop, folk, soft rock as well as sounds from her milieu, laying a solid foundation to see those in the Euro Zone through the daily bump and grind. While her music knowledge is vast, Flo is equally well loved for her sage and honest advice in Tuesday morning's bit 'Matters of the Heart'. A Dolly Doctor of relationships, NTS listeners tap her (and one another) for advice on sticky situations related to their personal lives. A huge relief from the ironies of online chatroom culture, Matters of the Heart is the most genuine thing you will ever find online, all thanks to Flo and her community of devoted listeners
However, there are still four days left in the week when her NTS working week is done, leaving plenty of time for recharging the musical repertoire, for both radio and gigging, the latter of which sees Flo with increasingly busy weekends. Not content to be a strictly seated DJ, Flo Dill is no stranger to dancefloors and dark booths, deejaying and promoting having been the main method of covering the rent her whole working life.
What feast will Flo Dill dish up for the Inner Varnika's tenner? A woman of the people first and foremost, whatever it is it will be served at the perfect tempo and temperature and will satiate even the least well slept and the heaviest of hearts.
