Do you mean "latter" instead of "former"? Because
"latter" would refer to #2, which sounds more like
what you're describing; I think number 2 draws more
attention to individual artists rather than the person
playing them - especially since with #1 they very
rarely say anything about what the music is, which
doesn't bring any attention to anybody! Number 2 is
the way I would do a show if I did one, and the way I
would prefer to hear them if I listened to them.
The few times I've tried out an electronic/dance radio
show (either on radio or one of those "internet radio
shows"), they seem to do number one - just mix lots of
stuff together like a club DJ or something. I hate
not knowing what something new is (how am I supposed
to buy it if I don't know? That's not promotion!).
