Ross Allen's Meltdown (Mp3)

This guy is probably one of the most up-to-date music peeps in the UK. Here's what we know... While working for Island he discovered Dizzee Rascal, much to the upset of the label, no need to mention but he wasn't signed. He also was responsible for Lady Sovereign, getting her the exposure she deserved. Shame she just entered the Big Brother house! What else... Found South Rakkas Crew in Orlando, made some amazing country compilations for the now defunct Casual records and plays the GrecoRoman parties; all showing a true understanding of many genres. Now he works A&R at one of the UK's most respected... Domino Records! & that is off the top of my head.

His weekly show on Ministry of Sound Radio is called the The Meltdown and we suggest you listen up. Keep it regular if you know what's good.
