    Internet Radio Station in the works

    So I've been working on building an internet radio station that will play predominantly industrial music with some metal, darkwave, ebm, synthpop, and various "gothic" genres. Will be featuring the new, the old, the classics, and I plan on doing a spotlight-style thing for new aspiring artists. SO IF YOU KNOW ANYONE OR ARE A SUCH SOMEONE YOURSELF, HIT ME UP

    I'll make you famous bro (probably not, but extra exposure can't hurt right?)

    So far this is still very much a work in progress that may be implemented in a few days or weeks. While this is mostly going to be just a "hobby" sort of thing I'm going about this fairly seriously.

    I've been in the process of assembling the ultimate playlist, adding about 50 tracks to it a day on average (so far over 2000 tracks on it). Having a Whatcd account helps! Although I've got some nearly exclusive-very hard to find stuff that isn't even on whatcd (I've actually added some of it to there haha)
    Also still have to assemble/configure the hardware since I'm making a dedicated server out of an old pc I scored from raiding an abandoned office (don't ask). I've already got the hosting worked out, going to be using shoutcast and maybe stream on FFR as well.
    I will even have a site and shit and possibly features that that site may have and a blog and candy and shit I don't even know yet I haven't really fired up the html cells in my brain yet and yes I am most likely making the site from scratch once I do it

    I was curious to see if anyone on FFR would be interested in a station like this, and give anyone the opportunity to request an artist/song to be thrown into the mix.

    Will edit the OP with requested bands/songs that have been fulfilled

    This sounds absolutely fantastic -- I'd definitely tune in to check it out once this is out of the infantile stages.

        Surprisingly I had nothing from Eisenfunk on there yet thanks for reminding me, still a fan of their Schmerzfrequenz album

          Alright, so I got kind of a set date for when this radio station will go live provided nothing goes horribly wrong:

          September 12th

          This date happens to fall on a payday, mainly because there are some last pieces of hardware I need to acquire to get everything set-up and I need to get the $$$ first because I am currently broke haha otherwise it would seriously be live right now.

          I might do a few demo broadcasts between now and then through FFR's stream.

          I've pretty much got my playlist where I want it, still acquiring more tracks everyday.
          I so far (according to winamp) have enough music to play for 10 days straight without repeating a song.

          I think that's a pretty good start
