In a statement Robbo said:

“I have had an incredible time on BBC Radio as I have been part of building an amazing platform for the music I love. I have many unfulfilled aspirations and challenges for the music and how it is played, portrayed and promoted and through my forthcoming broadcast ventures along with other avenues I intend to develop them. There are so many positive possibilities for my music that it makes the journey ahead an exciting one.”
