Music Revolution Promotion. going to the next level

Over time of broadcasting, it has been thought about many times of hiring out a place or having a permant base outside living premises for Music Revolution Promotion. The main thought for this is when bands want to come down to perform and this is one of the most popular parts of radio shows. At the moment, it is not possible, due to radio shows not bringing in revenue and of course only two shows a week. This is not Music World Radio. moving, it's just my shows and has more space I have the Music Revolution Promotion site, which I opened up some time ago as a place that was seperate for radio shows, recorded shows, music reviews and so on.  I have always wanted to move the shows elsewhere to acomodate bands when performing. There are places in town and one at the moment, but obviously it takes finance. Many ideas flow through the brain, but nothing works without action. I only do two shows a week, as this is not a full-time job, its a hobbie. Having premises present man

Open show album promotion

<p>Want you album promoted on radio in a slightly different way?</p> <p>This began in June this year. Spur of the moment idea, play a song from an album, going in track order at the top of each show. Also every time there is a voiceover segment a song on the background from the album is played. I do.this every 4 week's, which 8 shows. Other than that no specific rules other got to be really good quality creative music. Interested? Djreadman@gmail.com

Radio cinema

Everyone likes a film, but what about a film on radio?  I am always looking for different content for radio shows and films is now coming back into them. It really suprised me what is in an audio track of a film. For example, did a feature on from Dusk Til Dawn, sampled segments from the film. You get music, effectes, dialogue, a little of everything. This does not only apply to classic, applies to new films. Making a film, want some promotion, live interview? I make my shows as diverse as I can make them Dj readman

Music format

<p>Since mp3s were made a commercial format there as been an ongoing debate between MP3s, cds and vinyl. Lets clear the mist</p> <p>MP3- the most messed about portable music device since the invention of music.&nbsp; Easy to find, but easy to steal. The top bitrate is 320k and you can tell the difference the lower you go, its a suit format when not used correctly and not bad when done professionaly</p> <p>CDs the middle format and far superior to mp3. 5 inch disc that contains more sound and more depth. On of the best.</p> <p>Vinyl. - Top of the rang, the Least compressed out of every format and around since the end of world war 2. The best format for music ever created.   Want music with the most depth and range, even with olderm mono albums, the vinyl it is Music has been around for centuries. 78s were the first mass produced, but they could not take much content and easily damaged. This is partly the reason vinyl was introducee, pure

Thankyou for voting

As well as radio broadcasting, I create music. I have been guitar for many years and through the radio shows, hooked up with Gary Cormans to start this and I am gradually building a following. This project has only been going a few months. For everyone that has, the support is appreciated and the voting is as well. I have over 100 views on the official video to, Pirates in My Sink which is like. Wow :) Releasing music is different to what it used to be and I grasp that with Facebook and YouTube. I am considering going on one of these Kickstart site to raise funds for an ep or album and help pay for iTunes release which does cost money. Self releasing is not easy, a lot of work is involved Many thanks for voting everyone out there From Friday 23rd August we are at number 15 after 11 weeks Its a week by week voting system. You goto Www.topchoons.com and vote. This fine to do and more music to come Pirate Readman;)

Motorcycle Man

A bit of time has passed, so now is the time for another song. Motorcycle Man was originally going to be powercords but yesterday I thought, no, so rearranged the cords. When performing a song a try not to change the poem the Gary Cornman sent. It may happen, depending on the poem and the feel This song is Rock, or kind of easy rider style inspired. There is verses and chorus and I change cords for the Chorus. I was going to go for a more piratey feel, but that would mean changing the poem to much Will be made available later

Pirates in My Sink

This was a turn up for the books.  I have always liked music, composing it, selling and broadcasting it, all in the last 17 years and counting. Although I'm in a band The Doolallays, I have never really thought about performing or recording songs solo although K hit a phase of producing electro music, which I still have and put up with my acoustic music recently. This all started through my radio shows on Music World Radio.  You build up connections and I got to know Gary Cornman, who writes poetry and sends it to Maini Sorri, who transforms them into songs.  I had the idea of reading something out on my shows and Gary began to send me his poe ms....I thought cool, will read one out.  Then I thought, it needs background music and I did not have any music, which was instrumental to go with it.   I then thought I will use me acoustic and thats how my solo project with Gary Cornmans lyrics started.   The first one has had a good response Pirates in My Sink, which is an Acoustic co

4 years of streaming on Mwrs 5th Anniversary

When i began net broadcasting as FM broadcast is tough to get into( No idea how they choose presenters) although, that would be a dream to hit FM.  The net broadcasts I have been working on as a presenter since 2006.  I started as mix DJ when the station is my shop closed down, that was a little of both. Jumping ahead to 2008 after being on a couple of dnb stations which was restricting me.  I wanted to play more than dance and drum & bass. Then in that golden year, 2008, I struck gold after only a week of searching.  I found Music World Radio.  It literally had just changed about or 6 months before i joined, from Olympus Radio, to Music World Radio.  This is known as, Free form radio, although I did not know the term at the time. I wanted to emulate John Peel, who i got the radio bug from and the music he played.  My philosophy of radio broadcast as not really changed.  I see it as entertainment without a TV screen. I started out on mwr on turntable but as time went MP3 came in

Unsigned is old hat

Well not to say its something that is going to away, but I think its time to use a new term.  I have seen this mentioned on Facebook, and it is a good point. The term,'Unsigned' is used when a band or artist is not signed to major record label.  Now there have been independent labels for many years, other than the major labels.   But over the last few years, the big record label towers have been tumbling.  Since the digital age arose, although in some cases their own fault. That is what the word, unsigned, means.  But now things are changing and more and more individuals are going it alone. Some have success with an album or song and gain and audiences and some struggle, its always the way Many that go it alone are known as ' Independent' artists, who do not want to get signed by a big label due to the politics of it all and tied in to something simular to mobile contract ( If you want to get out if it, you can't).  Perfect example is Electro Pioneer, Lee Negin.
