I’ll be totally blunt and honest, if this was ten to fifteen years ago I’d have considered doing a radio station potentially with you guys. I even have access to free software to do one.
I’ve been part of an internet radio station until I decided to leave lately, and I know lots of bedroom/intermediate level DJs who are on various ones now - the reality is that there are _so many radio stations in the underground scene and hundreds of internet radio channels that it means they all get such thin listening ratings making it feel like it actually isn’t worth the good efforts everyone puts in. Seeing good DJs put their heart and soul into 10 or 50 listens is disheartening to me.
These days we stand a better chance with Video (you leave a legacy on youtube and the views keep going up) or making something niche that I’ve seen done actually quite well on Soundcloud (and defo not mixcloud) like this channel example that has taken a few years to build and gets thousands of listens per guest mix:

I was wondering how Frisky Radio was doing these days - that wasn’t the one I left.
