   If you remember (and loved) the
  exhilarating, street-level UK-centric
  offerings of R Music TV, then you’re
  undoubtedly going to absolutely love
  Uprise.

  This is well-packaged, world-class music TV
  programming like we’ve all wanted for years
  but rarely got in the UK.
 
  Think MTV programming in its heyday before it diversified into reality TV and all the other bits it’s focusing on these days.

The intro alone is almost certainly guaranteed to get you tremendously excited. Follow this link to see it, and then come back here. I’ll wait.

So… What did you think…? Serious, isn’t it…?
