Manu Taylor has stepped down as station manager at the alternative radio station bFM.
Taylor announced yesterday he would be leaving after seven years with bFM.
Before that he was programme director at Mai FM where he had been for ten years.
For several years was music critic for Radio New Zealand's National Radio.
Taylor said bFM had performed an important and specialised role for listeners at a time when there was increased activity from commercial stations and during the shift to digital content.
