Drugs and crime are always in the shadows of any music scene, even mainstream pop, hence why the Councils and Police put what might seem like heavy restrictions and controls on gigs, raves and festivals. It definitely happened and still happens to a greater or lesser extent, depending on the stations and who was involved. Originally London though lived in SE England and now in East Anglia. I admit I did all of these things once and I did have fun but some close calls and and now at age 40 feel a bit sheepish about some of it, and lucky I did not get in too much bother!īut for these young people I would also still suggest they team up in a bigger group and work together, and that they do it for a fun pastime or because they genuinely like their music or content, not simply to be "cool" As that is one of the good aspects of what we did as pirates (albeit often because the cost of equipment was too much for just one person alone). Its after all better than what happened when I was a teen - which usually involved building a stentor or similar low budget FM transmitter or worse getting involved with some pirate stations which in my country (UK) were also linked to drugs dealing and crime (to replace confiscated equipment) or just provide courage to the operators as well as illegal broadcasting!

In some cases the people running the stations are very young indeed, still in their teens and high school age so this can be forgiven. I see many where the websites are half done, in barely intelligible English (or the local language) and the audio content (when actually present) is grossly distorted to the point of being unlistenable (a particularly bad practice is to stream above 0dBFS audio level, just because your soundcard might allow it without everything sounding rough doesn't mean the distant listeners equipment will tolerate this), or the stations output is often erratic. All these, done well, are as good as and often even better than the national or local broadcasters - they do not have the technical limitations of FM audio transmission or the obsolete encoding formats used in DAB, nor the politics and bureaucracy, nor the Communications Ministry breathing down your neck like a normal broadcast station (or even have to hide from them like a pirate must!)īut there are a great deal of less good stations.

Other stations clearly want to emulate the popular "zoo format" radio of the 1980s, or talk formats or specialist documentary content. Often this is because they are spread across the entire world so what might be prime time evening in England is the early morning in Singapore and vice versa! I come from a former pirate background but also work with licensed FM community stations in the UK (BTW I would say A1 radio is equal to the best of these).įirstly there are definitely different types of stations and listener demographic - for instance many EDM fans are perfectly happy with a "non linear" form of listening to radio (such as pre recorded mixes or a repeat of a live show) with non stop beat mixed music and minimal chat / jingles (this varies on genres, some shows do have MC's and rappers who are equally popular). I agree to some extent but I think the real issues are with the operational methods/quality control of some stations.

What do you think? Please feel free to disagree with me. When there are enough of you then formulate a station.Īnyway, enough of my ramblings. Get enough followers who are interested in what you do then try and build them up into DJs themselves. I wonder if syndication is the way forward for people starting out. Now I do not want to stand in the way of people's dreams/plans but I see so many stations fold because they just can't get enough interest. When I look into a lot of stations I see 2 best friends doing 2 shows a week trying to get more people desperately. No I am in the same boat as everyone else in that I am always looking to increase the amount of DJs on my station but part of me thinks there are too many stations with too few DJs. Often with the line "you seem to suit our station really well". It amuses me when I see stations on here grab ANY DJ that says they are looking for a slot. That is - loads of stations desperate for DJs! It gets easier (and cheaper) to launch a station but filling them with live content is hard as there seem to be only a limited amount of DJs looking for stations. Having visited these forums for some time I see the same thing happening again and again.
