Trance Addict

Posted by Mr.Mystery on Jun-10-2006 16:29:

Okay.

trance.nu podcast has a podcast, but its really shit.

I dont have Ipod.

What would we play? Theres so many different genres talked about here that no matter what was on the podcast everyone would hate it.

Posted by Purple on Jun-10-2006 17:07:

Maybe we can have a poll or something, and people can put names and genres they want to listen in one thread. Whichever/whosoever is in demand will be played that week.

There are several new sets posted to the DJ forum every single day. Why do we need a podcast?

wtf is a podcast?

like mp3 streaming? Wouldn't we have to get rights to play such music? And wouldn't that cost money to get those rights?

How about a winamp stream instead ?

Its not live streaming, instead a show is uploaded and than you download it to your ipod to listen to it. You dont even need an ipod to listen to it, you can use Itunes and you PC headphones to listen to it.

Since most of the stuff will come from TA members itself; I dont think getting rights will be a problem.

Setting up a radio broadcast stream is expensive from what I heard and technologicaly complicated (again from what I heard). And podcast is a baby stuff, anyone can have its own podcast show up and running in two days time.

I'd use it, though.

I guess we should name it the Podcast Forum because otherwise it just won't be the same thing.

lol TA will never have a podcast cos thered be far too much fighting about it.

Posted by Spacey Orange on Jun-10-2006 20:15:

if i hear someone say or write 'podcasting' (when they mean 'download digital audio files') one more goddam time im going to drive down to the valley and strangle steve jobs myself.

Podcast is cheap for TA to have, TA should have its own online Radio.

TA once did have it's own online radio, but why bother when there are now so many other online radio stations who have more time to dedicate to it, more bandwitdh and multiple channels to listen to.

And as Mr Mystery stated earlier, we have a DJ forum on tranceaddict where new sets are posted daily, there is no point in having a TA podcast.

i would spin a set of experimental electro and have all the kiddies calling it trance.It would be a monumental acheivement and the end of genre whoring.I hate pod casts though

Posted by Acid John on Jun-10-2006 21:54:

well... a "podcast" can be anything... a liveset... an interview... just songs played... essentially like anything you might hear on the radio, just downloadable, and not restricted to a specific timeslot like conventional radio. you can dl it, and listen to it whenever.

TA really doesnt need a podcast. dj sets are just fine on their own. there are already online radio stations in existence, and theres no reason dling a whole podcast "show" if you only may like a handful of songs...

overall, its do-able, but not very practical....

there are only two instances that i could think of offhand where a podcast might be advantageous.

stuff like interviews w/ djs or producers. (if they were TA exclusive or something)

or producer do-it-yourself type things. like "if youre trying to achieve this kind of sound" kind of things... and then there is audio right there of before, during, and after of the sound youre trying to achieve. or this or that tweak can make productions sound more polished as a whole...

get what i mean?

but either way, this would be a matter for the production forum to discuss, and not like a full fleged TA podcast....
