Its not white label and these are signed acts.
HELL, one is signed to the oh'so world renowned perfecto label.. YES! ST.Pete resident DJ and producer signed to the perfecto label, there's 1 canadian artist, Nuclear Ramjet, YES! also signed a real label, And frankly they're hitting it big in the goa scene just a matter of time till you hear that name more often.. And of course probably one of the biggest electronic names to come out of Canada, Capital J, also signed to a label, and Hitting it big all over europe.. Oh, and i believe that S4 is as well signed to a "real honest to goodness label " but on that one i could be mistaken, the others are a sure hit though, and im sure there's more.
NO its not BS.. Whats BS is thinking you're gonna change a music station because they get 100 letters from non listeners that would like them to change there music schedule.. HAH! again they have a proven product so they could care less...
And you don't need a building just a transmitter and a lisence, you can do it out of your basement as long as you have the lisence. Hell, i was transmitting radio from my high school at Vaughan secondary, for 2 hours a week, mind you it was only a five mile radiouse, the point is, it can be done.. and again there ARE enough Canadian artists to fill the quota. in my eyes its not BS.. |

Ok... ummmmm... and thats what i have .....
Now... if you are thinking of more a "underground music station" ... it wont happen... the cost is 2 high to run a station with minimal audience. Have you ever looked into a license… well do, you quickly find out how much that costs.

So what’s the difference if I broadcast 2 hours on Z 103.5 five days a week ... it can be done, and I am making a difference.
Look... the bottom line is that there is not enough people in the city who are into that type of music to support a "standalone" underground station, I think that needs like 5 more years or so.
OHHHHH one more thing ... so there is these Canadian artist to fill the quota, OK... lets see.... 7 days a week, Canadian Contend a must during the times of 6 AM to 12 AM.... so that’s 18 hours of the day.... 39% of that is just a bit over 7 hours a day... a track is aprox 5 min long... so that’s 84 Canadian tracks per day. That’s alllllot of toons…. Don’t know about that.
We can argue all we want, and that wont take us anywhere |

"non cheese" ummmmmmmmm... ok... WTF is that.... every venue is different... cheese for you could be non-cheese for others... ever think of that.
And i don't think that I play cheese, i play what the crowd wants, and what fits that crowd. |

Chris, good luck man. Hopefully you manage to bring toronto and the whole golden horeseshoe ( I live in GRIMSBY and I wanna be able to hear this station). And if you need some promoting down here, let me know :) |

U Wanna start ur own Radio station? good luck. U need sponsors and yes Cannuck Content. Lots of luck.
I am getting the notion u wanna compete with z103.5. Is this true? |

Yap.... because it’s not mainstream. (one of my points in this thread)

Yap.... read my above statements about licensing and cost’s, the small market that the underground music is, that’s why it has to be a “Z 103.5” type station with a twist.
(my other point I stated B4, in this thread….. LOL 2 for 2)

Yap... Yap... Yap... :)
Look, this station thing was out on the table a long time now, CRCT is a bitch, that one of the problems right now.
And sorry Ray_Finkle, our signal wont go that far “right now”.
Look...I will make one more statement on all of this,
At least I’m trying to make a difference, I’m not going to sit hear like a little bitch and cry about “Ohhh radio sucks, Z sucks, music sucks, i don't like this and don't like that... ect” do something to make a difference. Look at the woman’s liberation back in the day, they didn’t like how they were treated, so they got out of the kitchens and made a difference for them selves. WHY CAN'T WE DO THE SAME??? |

ahahahhahahaha
Womens Lib.....they are still fighting for lib and yet demand chivalry inspite of wanting to be equal in every aspect...
oh and btw....womens lib in N.America came rather late compared to other nations.....so i guess in the same way we gotta be patient and wait for trance/electronica to take its turn in society....
heres one thing tho...if we all patronize big name djs and producers comin in from abroad, and start spreading the word bout TA.com to people who like em and attend the event, we can start a revolution |

:) ... see.... that wasn't so hard, was it.... LOL
And stations like Z 103, that do play the "cheese" trance or "good" trance, should be supported to an extant, and if you do voice you’re opinion to Z 103.5 VIA e-mail, maybe over time they will hear what people have to say, maybe they will realize that the markets is changing slowly.
I don’t think that, an e-mail once in the while will kill anyone.
They need to feel the pressure. :) |
