Oh yes I have :-) This has nothing to do with mono vs. stereo, but with aac+ vs. mp3 to reduce streaming bandwidth and still keep a good audioquality. Streaming aac+ and in mono would gain you even more!

Have you listened to any of our podcasts? They're all MP3s ripped at 80 kbps mono and sound completely fine. Stereo is overrated anyThway.

Have a look at aac+ vs. mp3 streaming. Better audioquality in relation to the bandwidth used, so you can even serve smartphone users with a limited bandwidth with an acceptable to good sound! The only downside is that one needs an aac+ capable music player which are less common than plain mp3 music players, but the major players like VLC, Winamp, iTunes etc support it. Have a listen to http://yeahright.getmyip.com:8000/listen.pls with one of those players and check out the soundquality!

The Fog Band were really awesome, having only one single published and lasted for 6 years and disappeared. I even wrote a Wikipaedia entry on them.

Station 360, played a lot around Hampshire in the UK during the 80s, released one cassette EP.....they were great.....

I do a weekly show called Radio What Wave outta London Ontario Canada at Western University, CHRW ....lots of garage, protopunk, powerpop, obscuro, etc... The weekly play list is posted in this group and here's a link to the podcast which is updated weekly:

Here's the addy if you want to send stuff to our Music Director, Ashley:

94.9 CHRW
Room 250, UCC
University of Western Ontario
London, Ontario, Canada
N6A 3K7

CHRW prefers CD as they don't have any way to file the new vinyl. Some DJ's (self included) do play lots of vinyl.

Wow, 25 years at the same station... That's great! Congratulations. I first went on the air 28 years ago this week, but I was off and on for many of those years until landing my weekly gig at KDHX in 1995, which lasted almost 11 years. I haven't been on the airwaves since '06.

88.1FM, http://wmbr.org.

Lots of rock shows, send it to music directors Jesse K/Chris V.  We def. prefer real vinyl and CD's still.

If you're interested, the archive for my 8-10AM and 10AM-noon shows is up but the 2nd half needs to be restored cuz the archive decided to screw me on the day when I'm playing my favorite favorites, sigh.

WHRB at Harvard and WZBC at Boston College are possibilities too.

Hey, thanks for the info! I've never heard of these bands before. When I first started reading this, I thought "Robert Johnson? Huh? He's blues", but anyway, yeah, I'll look into him. Sex Clark Five sounds like a punk band, but I'll take your word for it. Cheers!

Jose said:

I've re-discovered Robert Johnson im my record collection recently and have been stuck on him now for a good month. While he really isn't paisley pop it's still great stuff, it's more Beach Boys sounding power-pop than anything. It's worth checking out, you can usually find his 2 lps on e-bay fairly cheap ( Memphis demos and Close Personal Friend ). If you get a chance check out his 1st 45 with the Bell Heirs. I think  both albums were re-released on cd a while back, it's worth looking into. Also you might want to check out The Leopards ( re-released on SingSing records ) and the Sex Clark Five, both are 60s British invasion influenced.

Hello is it necessary that podcast have one hour long ? Two hours is possible ?

Someday, Kopper, someday...as for now I lack the important necessities.

You've set the trap, now just wait...

...what the sea of Rock'n'Roll will spit out.

yea. the gtrs and vocals are way better. especially the gtrs.

cool tunes too

well  first of all i should say hi to all cause this is my first post....

now on topic ,dubie is right full on.

when you record live there are 3 really important things: instruments and settings (meaning cymbals ,drum tuning , gtr amp/settings...) , mic positioning (avoiding phase cancellations is really important too if you want some decent bass freq.and especially if youre gonna mix in mono) and room acoustics.in general the point of a live recording is to capture a band playing in a room so i guess we all like it kinda muddy but not too much.you need some definition too...

so ,i have to add 3 things to dubies spot on reply.first check out some stereo mic positioning techniques and experiment.there are alot of stuff you can do with 4 (or even 3 mics).second get your drummer to mind his dynamics.third import your rec tracks in some sequencer and experiment with the eqs a little.this way you can propably get some definition out of most recordings. but be carefull its easy to get excited and overdo it...:)

cheers

It's a little old news.  Cheetah's book "A Dead Boy's Tale From the Front Lines of Punk Rock" is released some months ago.

In Dead Boys - related news ,

 I'm not a fan of the genre , BUT , when I was in Mexico , I saw a band called Los Gorditos. They were INSANE ! I think they're pretty popular in Mexico , so finding you tubes or CDs you can order from outside of Mexico should'nt be a problem.

If I were to only buy album ever again, over and over again for the rest of my life, it would as sure as hell be this one!

Sorry for self advertising but you might like it!! 

Even after almost thirty years of doing a radio show, I never really got around to "officially" naming it. My friends just call it by my name, "The Jeff of the Future Show."

You should post links to new episodes/playlists here. No one's going to remember to visit your Facebook page. ;)
