I was recently pointed to http://block.fm/ as I like to go with some beats to work with and they have some great Dnb and electronica shows. Usually I can't cope with any words, lyrics in the song or presenters on a show, but if I can't understand the words, in this case because I speak no Japanese, it's not a problem and sometimes it's nice to have voices (outside my head) as part of the white noise.

Indeed, the presenters on DnB shows are usually really hard to understand. "Big ups to cheesy grifter in tha gleebow huppa dig walla shim bam to ya fo keepin it real ya". I have no idea what they are saying. Since it's supposedly English, my mind has to try and parse it. Very distracting.
:) I feel I should point you in the direction of the Hospital records podcast, in case you haven't found it http://www.hospitalrecords.com/broadcast/. The usual presenter is the label boss Tony Coleman, and a nicer man you'll be hard pressed to find. No posing, no cheese, no slang and a constant positive attitude. Plus it's an absolutely superb label.
