The latest DJ on NEXUS RADIO who does a show on Sunday from 2am GMT (thats saturday 9PM Eastern US) I'm in the process of setting up his personal DJ space now...<br /><br />Whats the DJ SPACE I hear you ask? Well fromt he front page on <!-- m --><a href="http://www.nexusradio.co.uk/" target="_blank" class="postlink">http://www.nexusradio.co.uk</a><!-- m --> there are links on the top left that say Wizard Sleeve, RScain, Matty n Stef.. <br /><br />These all take you to the personal DJ pages, for example <!-- m --><a href="http://wizardsleeve.nexusradio.co.uk/" target="_blank" class="postlink">http://wizardsleeve.nexusradio.co.uk</a><!-- m --> where each DJ can create a personal page to promote his show. <br /><br />From there there are some great tools, such as the world wide schedual and the AUTO REQUEST FEATURE...<br /><br />Whats that I hear you ask? Where have you been!!! Underneith the Image on that page is a button that say Requests, click that and you get an a-z listing of all the tracks in the DJ's Playlist all you have to do is find a tune you want and click REQUEST. <br /><br />This is why TAGGING your tracks properly is important, we as DJ's are constantly having to manually tag tracks but there are plenty that we are unable to do due the artist/title not being in the file name.. it makes it hard for us to promote you and you wont appear properly on our playlist. <br /><br />Whats Tagging I hear you ask... well lets start simple..<br /><br />1. Download Winamp Free from <!-- w --><a href="http://www.winamp.com/" target="_blank" class="postlink">http://www.winamp.com</a><!-- w --> its the best thing to listn to nexus radio on and also is EASY to teach you how to tag.<br /><br />2. Load the file into your playlist<br /><br />3. Right click the file and select "view file info" <br /><br />4. Check the ID3v1 Tag<br /><br />5. Fill in Title, and Artist.. you can fill in any extra info you want but its not important.<br /><br />Click UPDATE<br /><br />6. If you like you can also Check ID3v2 Tag on the right hand side, click COPY FROM ID3v1, and add any extra info you want...<br /><br />Click UPDATE<br /><br />Other than that, I dont think i have anything else to add, Hope you have had a good weekend, I hope to see ya TONIGHT!<br /><br />Peace, Love, and Nexus Radio!
<p>Nexus Radio is an online radio station that has been running for over a year, and is growing rappidly. </p><p> It was an idea in Wizard Sleeves eye for many years when he noticed that not one OMD had an online radio station. He put together a list of Idea's and took it to his then favorite OMD Mixposure. The manager seemed interest but after a year of talking about updates and not doing anything Wizard Sleeve got ants in his pants and just decided to start doing a show out of his own pocket for unsigned artists, and Mixposure could catch up if it wanted to. (this never happened, infact over the course of the next 2 years the manager was so terrible and the site went down so many times that near everyone gave up on it)</p><p> It started on a day Quietman, and old school friend of Wizard Sleeve, popped up almost completly out of the blue after being invisible for about 2 years. They did a fantastic show, although having not broadcasted for a while there were a few hiccups, and started to build an audience, as well as searching for more tracks from unsigned artists all around the web. </p><p> They did a few more shows together and even had "The Skadows" round (and old ska band from the 70's) play live on a couple of shows. Through a lack of support from quietman, be it financial or research, Wizard Sleeve took on a partner, R.S. Cain, who had been doing a show on live 365 for a while, and they began to build a masterpiece. </p><p> They now have 2 streams, a hifi that is 96kbps and a lofi that is 24kbs, as well as having 3 different shows a week. They are on the lookout for more DJ's, but are doing fine with there sunday to tuesday shows, as well as having the shows re-air throughout the week so if you miss it, nexus is always on and you can listen in. </p><p> Nexus, through lack of any support from other OMD's (even though they play out songs from, and promote the sites for free) is completly funded by R.S.Cain and Wizard Sleeve, not to mention a few generous donators, and they are planning on taking things a step further and turning it into an OMD, in the hope that Nexus one day will not only generate enough money so they can keep playing out your music for free, but also be a place where record companies can come to find out whats hot and whats not. </p><p> </p><p>For show times click read more...</p>
