Mag
and Pat were the DJ stars of Malaysia's TraxxFM show 'In the Afternoon'
which was broadcast between 13:00 and 16:00 hours (Malaysian Time).
Their show had been running for just over two years, and had proved
hugely popular with their combination of music and chat, when TraxxFM
decided to revamp themselves to a Travel and Leisure station. All
the old DJ's were moved into different time slots, partnerships
were broken up and new DJ's brought in with a devastating effect.
For
those who listened regularly then the format of the 'in the Afternoon'
show was well known, predominantly a dedication and request programme,
radio in the afternoon took on a whole new meaning with Mag &
Pat. Interaction infused with good humour and banter broke away
from the mundane mid-day drag.
The
request format evolved throughout the week and allowed listeners
to get creative. Mag & Pat featured Tuesday Titles & Situation
Wednesdays on occasions, where songs suggestions were based on specific
themes. And they ended the week, leaving you in high-spirits to
kick-start the weekend with Fun Fridays.
Although
the team is now broken up, Pat has moved to another station, and
Mag is no longer on air although she would like to be, you can see
their webcasts here. The listeners of the old show were regarded
as 'family' and although the show has ceased to be the 'family'
keep going. This site is devoted to the 'Mag and Pat family' and

Forum. |
