Ok this has been in the works for awhile now and i finally got a "gig" with a radio station here in nyc. Its not big balls but its a start. This station has a potential listener base of 2.5 million listeners in the nyc area none the less the webcast. I am just asking all of you for advice, as this will be my first real big gig. It will be spun live i have no idea how to take care of a radio audience as you can't see their reactions and know what to spin etc etc.. the show is on from this wednesday the 25th from 10pm - 2am. you can listen to it @ www.wsia.fm just click on listen live. if you are in the staten island area just tune your station to 88.9fm. I hope you all enjoy this and i am looking for feedback after the show and some advice for it b4 Tempest

Im not a dj but I have seen almost every top dj/producer there is. Since this is a 4 hour set my advice to you would be to go progressive. Start with the euphoric stuff them work it into some hard banging style Above all remember that this is your set, and you must go with what your feeling at that moment.Good luck and ill be listening in on your set

Staten Island owns I'll be listening man, good luck

ummm if i were u i would get guest djs 2 spin @ ur radio show!!!

also pm rouz he used 2 run umd radio show here...i have spun there couple of times!!!

it isn't "my show" i'm basically just a guest dj for the normal show. hopefully if all goes well i'll be there on a monthly basis. i'm not sure of the set tiem but its def not 4 hours. heh i guess i should of mentioned that. i'm not sure exactly what time i start. i know i have to be there at 930 then i go on whenever they say. thanks for the tips/advice and encouragement given so far.

oh damn...then record ur set...i wanan hear u spin!

Good luck. My advice to you is this...check out the charts locally, what is hot right now, and what are people buying in the stores. Throw some of those tunes on to keep people interested. Keep your own style, include some classics as well as some exclusives you may be hiding. Have fun!

I just do it exactly the way I enjoy listening to it. This is most of the time it is with banging beats. It is even with a soft thing, a soft melodic idea, or whatever. I still like to have it rocking. Keep in mind what this music is made for, first of all. Its not made to be easy listening on the radio. Its not made to be easy listening in television. Its actually kick ass in the club. This is what music is. This is the purpose of this art form...to listen to it and let the frequencies actually blow you away. --Paul Van Dyk

well i am sure he has songs that are hot right now...i heard him spin couple of times on ta radio. hes better then the average dj

:P

I'm sure he does have hot tracks now, I was just saying that those hot tracks along with classics as well as some tracks that really don't get much PT would make for a great radio show

thanks amit i'm gonan record it either in the studio or have one of my friends record it one their radio. one way or another it will be recorded. i think tiger is gonna be streaming it in the chatroom as it happens so you can jump in there to listen along as well as the links i provided.

Davidscott i'm gonna be trying to play a lil bit of both. You know how staten island is with their music. all a bunch of ktu heads and what not. So i'm gonna sneak some of my stuff in along with stuff i think would please them.

Lil lizzy, Nah i don't got there, i am just guesting on the station. I got in well with niki/raven over the past year or so and she heard a demo i sent her liked it and well here i am. Like i said if all goes well gonna try ot make it a monthy thing. Why do you go to csi? i'm guessing you live on the island.
