Nic Cage is like Tom Cruise: he just plays as himself in every film and somehow it works.

This is such a dumb argument cause it literally takes seconds to convert BTC to fiat. You can buy whatever you want with bitcoin.

People love to say this but it literally doesn’t bother me at all. It’s no worse than driving an auto in traffic.

There is a system implemented that tracks every song played for licensing purposes. Anyone can jump on with their own music and I get sent the bill afterword. I’m more than happy to pay for the licensing fees for the time being. I’ll probably start begging for donations eventually.

Saving this comment so I can look into it. Thanks for the suggestion. I’d like to get as many ears as I can!

Yeah I noticed

I want to get the station broadcasting on as many ears as possible. I’m currently trying to get the station on TuneIn; will look into Rhythmbox.

Thanks. I was not aware of lemmy.radio

Damn, and here I thought I had an original idea. Maybe we should get together and do a collab! Their website could use some modernization.

Oh don’t worry, I will. I want to eventually implement a system where people can donate to their favorite DJs and the station gets a cut to help with operating fees. But I will need developers to help me with this. In the meantime I ask for nothing but your ears.

Already implemented due to legal reasons. So IDK why Take on Me keeps playing.

Thanks for making me aware of the issue. Fixing now.

Exactly! You get it. Big radio will just play the same 10 songs over and over, all day long, for always and forever. My idea for the station is to escape from the corporate BS and play what people want to actually hear.

Thank you. I’ve been working hard all night to get as many listener suggestions on air as possible! (Gonna eventually need mods to help me with this).

Individual songs are preferred, but feel free to link a playlist if you want. Stick it in the “Optional Message” section of the Submission form.

Excellent question. I plan on promoting the station on as many communities as I can get away with. I’m hoping that the concept takes off and spreads throughout the fediverse. But to be honest, I can’t guarantee anything. What I can tell you, though, is that there are more than 5 listeners tuning in right now. ;) (EDIT: And we don’t even have any live DJs yet!)

Fucking DO IT. I plan on spending all night adding your suggested tunes to the rotation!

You are absolutely right. I mulled over it for days as to whether or not I should promote the station here. Decided to do it anyway since I could not find a more suitable community. If you know of one, please let me know!

Sweet. I’ll process the form tonight. Keep an eye on your inbox.

EDIT: Done. Looking forward to your reply.

You can communicate with the DJ by sending them a message using the Request form at the bottom of the page (or in Discord). I’ve always liked the idea of a phone system, but trolls gonna troll. Maybe one day.

Well you’ll be the first person I contact to help set this up should I decide to migrate to IRC.

Fo sho. And yes BUTT is one of the easiest ways to connect to the stream, while still being able to use whatever DJ software or media player you’re comfortable with (if you don’t want to use the Web DJ). Thanks for your interest!
