Its Just another Sunday


By Wizard Sleeve, 2008-05-03

Hey folks, I know i am late with the message this week but this is the first oppourtunity i've had to actually post the message today so here goes. I've only had 4 hours sleep and been working all day, i am completly out of fuel so i am running on pure alcohol tonight, so sorry in advance for any slurring or mispronounciation of words n burbles.

Mark Cloutier was kind enough to send on over his latest CD - 6 Strings of Passion - So that will be getting a spin tonight on nexus for sure!! - If you like the cd you can check the label out at http://www.cdbaby.com/markcloutier and marks personal myspace page at http://www.myspace.com/markcloutier - ALSO we hope to have an interview done with him over the next few weeks so keep your eyes on the news posts around the forums!!!! Be warned there was no CD sent to the CDDB so I submitted one myself from the songs etc on the cover, if something is wrong i do apologise.


Other than that its pretty much a TOTAL REQUEST NIGHT tonight! See you all there from 8PM GMT (3PM EST) till about Midnight, maybe later.

Back By Popular Demand


By Wizard Sleeve, 2008-04-26

Thats right I'm back tonight with the first Wizzie Mix n Mash in 2 Weeks... we finally have the internet sorted at joeys parents so we can do the shows... we move out in 4 weeks though so we have to deal with this joyas occasion then, but we should have 4 weeks uninterupted nuttyness on nexus, and hopefully if I can time everything right it wont be interupted in the next move.

Anyway tonight should be a pretty good one, no only do we have the Gunslinger Album - Earthquak in E-minor - to play out for you, but we have an exclusive interview with nigel potter and a never before heard acoustic track

We also have had some new submisions for SONG OF THE YEAR 2008: http://www.nexusradio.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?id=996 we've got new tracks from the likes of: Tsargoth, Blake Tobias, Amber McDaniel, Mike Kissel, Ken Lazor and anyone else who reads the post and follows the instructions :)

We also have some new tracks from Charlie Beige, Brian Ralston, The Rye, Amber McDaniel, Mobymkii and Yummy

We also have got ourselves a cheap SIM Card for an Old Mobile phone, so if you can't make it on to teamspeak, but still want to talk to us or Send a text than our Number is: 07530446917, If your Dialing from Over Seas You may need to change the number to 44 7530446917, or if dialing from America/Canada then you will need to dial as follows 011 44 7530446917 - Remeber this phone will only get your through to Myself or Joey, But in time we hope to find some way to make an actual "Nexus" phone that redirects to whomever show is live

I'm pretty stoked about tonights line up, and I have missed you all the past few netless weeks, I hope tonights show goes as well as intended!

Tonight on Nexus Radio


By Wizard Sleeve, 2008-04-05

We go LIVE from 8PM GMT thats 3PM EST

Tonight is the last show in the flat but thats not going to change my plans for tonights show.

First we are going to be playing the current submissions for SONG OF THE YEAR: http://www.nexusradio.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?id=996

Currently in SOTY 2008 we have tracks from: Piano Forte, Corn and Beans, Psybot, Rapster + TLT50, Joel Irwin, Eternal Hobo, Vagrance, Ian Rushton, Bri-an, KOR, RSCain, Nigel Potter, Bill Wilcosky, That Never Was, The Empires, Smurf Beatz, Karco and Pulsate.

If you haven't yet submitted your track them plaese send an email to: competitions@nexusradio.co.uk with you TRACK, and in the main body of the email include: "GENRE" "ARTIST NAME" and "TUNE TITLE" - These are required. You may need to VERIFY your email address with SPAMARREST, its a spam filter I use on the web thats amazing, when some one emails me who isn't in my contact/allowed list and email gets sent back to them they have to click a link and put in a magic word and then they are verified. It doesn't take long, and means ur emails will get to me. I havent had any spam since I started using spam arrest, so i would advise using them if you have issues with spam :)

Also I got a couple of CD's from SELF TORT, the sexy aussie lawyer who really knows how to rock. We'll be displaying some of his works from him tonight, some of which may even be fresh listens for me, especially the "acoustic" CD he sent me.

We also have a new member, Amber McDaniel, and I have one of her tracks to play out for you all tonight, you can find her on myspace :)

We will obviously be playing our wide range of unsigned and signed music from all genres, be they trance, DnB or house, To rock metal and funk we have it ALL

We go LIVE from 8PM GMT thats 3PM EST - and hope to see you all there

Easter Sunday Wishes From Nexus Radio


By Wizard Sleeve, 2008-03-22
Easter Sunday Wishes From Nexus Radio

Catch the Show tonight from 8PM GMT (thats usually 4PM EST but i think its 5PM EST as our clocks havent gone forward yet)


So its sunday... and its easter... does that mean i am going to be giving out chocolate eggs? No... I'll probably be making a mockery of the day that seems to have no relevence to any of its religious significance.. and once i have done that I will probably make a mokery of the religions too.. you know how it goes. :lol:

I'm actually looking for any clips of comedians talking about Easter, so if you have any feel free to send them in to me.

Seeing as the Live AutoRequest Feature is so popular I think we might rename the Sunday mix n Mash the Sunday Request show and were going to stick with that for a while.. hey if people like the fact that 90% of the music all night is chosen by them then who am I to stop them?

To request something from myself when live then go to http://www.nexusradio.co.uk - click wizard sleeve in the top right hand corner and then click requests under the image of wizard sleeve. Alternativly just click this link: http://www.nexusradio.co.uk/samPHPweb/playlist.php - from there there, you can see a list of ALL of my tracks on my HD (though i do have more, but i haven't burned all my CD's on to my computer...) - Don't see your tracks up there? Then send them via email to wizardsleeve@nexusradio.co.uk (be sure to include what genre the track is, and what OMD you use most so i can file your track for ease and promote you better - Also make sure the track is tagged)

We will also be playing some of the submissions from SONG OF THE YEAR 2008 - Please read the following post: http://www.nexusradio.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?id=996

And I will be trying out an Interview on TEAMSPEAK to see if we can get live interviews going so they are not the usual pre-records, Matty has kindly volouteered, he doesn't know he has, but he has haha.

If you don't know what teamspeak is.. read this post: http://www.nexusradio.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=9991#p9991

It will enable you to talk live with us on our shows.

So whats happening tonight?


By Wizard Sleeve, 2008-03-08

its all a bit of a mystery for me as well.. I am currently scouring the web looking for some new music, but this week seems to have be pretty unproductive for most people. Either that or the downloads are switched off and I can't get their tracks.

What I do have for you tonight is this... **** Wizard Sleeve Night... I have been working on a few tracks recently, most for a game, one of which you know as reemmbering the homeland which has already been cunted, and did surprisingly well... well tonight you get the chance to **** a few of my other works in progress too, these tracks are incompletly, poorly produced and have many things you can **** them on so you can really "get your own back" on the cuntyest **** of them all.

We have been sent some new tracks, including a METAL track from RAPSTER which will of course be played later today and we will continue our usuall nuttyness.

BE WARNED!!!!! - The clocks have gone FORWARD an HOUR in america, this does not happen in europe for another week or 2, so be warned that My show will be later for you americans, and the other shows will be an hour Earlyer for you europeans.

Whats happened to the Spacing in blogs?

Whats happened to the Spacing in blogs?

Something wierd has happened to the blogs on this site... my last couple of entries have had all the spaces taken out of them, not between words but between lines.. they are all one jumbled mess... any particular reason for this?

SUNDAY? AGAIN? TOTAL REQUEST NIGHT!!!


By Wizard Sleeve, 2008-02-23
SUNDAY? AGAIN? TOTAL REQUEST NIGHT!!!

This Past week or so I have been experimenting with the Broadcaster and Learning how to write scripts for it, to make broadcasting alot easyer for me. I have actually got to the point with the scripting where I could have a complete Auto-show where people can request stuff, it will add it to the playlist, plus run certain themes at certain points in the show... although problems will arise because people don't tag there tracks properly... I'm even guilty of the the GENRE tage being wrong.. I just leave all my stuff as DnB untill i do the final final mixdown, so if i did a DnB segment on the auto who knows what kinda stuff might crop up. Most stuff isn't even tagged or in a genre.

Bascially in tonights show i would like you all to participate in the new REQUEST page. its listed in numbers and from A-Z, it shows 25 results per page by default, but you can select it to show 50 or even 100.. down the bottom is the "next page" function if you want to see more in that particular number/letter.

What I am going to try and do is get everything tagged properly. Lots of tracks from soundclick are not tagged at all, but luckily from soundclick the filenames are artistname+songname.mp3 so it is easy enough to edit... I have found that I have hundreds of tracks, mainly from mixposure, that are not tagged properly at all.. especially when i used to do the mixposure top 10... so i have tagged those tracks Mix top 10 7 sept 06 - track name for now.. I might delete all the mixposure top 10 tracks all together.. but there are a few in there I know I would miss.

Anyway I would like help Tagging the tracks up properly, if you notice something playing, or in the playlist that is tagged wrong, please let me know either in chat or email.

Also if you notice any tracks making the stream go crazy please let me know straight away and the track will have to be completly removed from my harddrive.

Other than that, the show is down to your REQUESTS - You can browse my playlist and request stuff live on air by following this link: http://www.nexusradio.co.uk/samPHPweb/playlist.php.

Song of the Year 2008 Nominations/Submissions


By Wizard Sleeve, 2008-01-14
Song of the Year 2008 Nominations/Submissions

Welcome to the SOTY 2008 Submissions/Nominations stage.

First things first... the rules:

1. The song/tune must be made in 2008 (or at least the later couple of months of 2007)

2. The song can be any genre, we are very liberal and like any tune as long as its good

3. The song must be submitted via email, either as a link or the file directly sent over email to: <a href="mailto:competitions@nexusradio.co.uk">competitions@nexusradio.co.uk</a>

The email must be layed out with the subject being: Song of the year 2008 (we run other competitions and I don't want to get confused..
In the main section of the email i will need this info

Artist Name:
Tune Name:
Genre:


These are required because:
a) most people don't tag their tracks properly
b) every track is going to put in to a new folder called song of the year 2008 in that folder will be genre folders, then artist folders, and it makes it much easyer if we can save directly to there instead of having to listen to every submission to find out where to put it.
c) if you can't handle sending an email like this there is no chance you can write a half decent song :lol: :P

4. The song cannot be one that was nominated for song of the year 2007, 2007 has passed, this year its all about NEW MUSIC from all different genres.

Personally I would like to see some more Electronic music this year, IE Trance, DnB, IDM, Industrial etc... but I am not adverse to rock, metal, funk, blues and all the other stuff as well.. its just i would like the genres to have even more variation than they did last year.

5. Once a song has been subitted it will be played out at least bi-weekly on nexus radio on most if not ALL of the shows so it gives a chance for everyone to hear the tracks in the runnings for SOTY

6. Tracks can then be NOMINATED by making a post in this thread at nexus radio (if your reading this on another site please click here: http://www.nexusradio.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?id=996) with every extra person you want to add please EDIT YOUR POST untill i do a TALLY, after that Create a new post and keep editing untill i do another TALLY
7. You cannot Nominate yourself, and I would rather no one nominated me (Wizard Sleeve)

8. You can only vote for 2 tracks from the same artist, though collabs count as a different artist so you could nominate every single colab from some one plus 2 solo tracks if you want, although not more than 2 collabs from the same artists... so only 2 stef/sly collabs, but as many stef/other people collabs.

9. As with last year; tracks with 1 nomination are eligble for the bottom spots, 2 or more for the middle spots, and 3 or more for the top spots

10. Only nominations made on the official thread at nexus radio count so if your reading this on another site please take your time to visit this thread HERE: http://www.nexusradio.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?id=996
11. This competition is really just a load of fun to be had on nexus radio. Don't take it too seriously its just a way for us to play out some great tunes from artists all round the web, give them some recognition, and at the end of the competition send out some funny lil prizes to thank them for letting us play out there tunes and supporting nexus radio.

If you think its too early for this then your wrong... we are collecting entries and nominations for the next 11 months and the final voting happens in December!
