Good Net Radio?
January 31st 2007 03:58
My girlfriend informs me that the Radio is better in England. Actually, she informs me that quite a bit is better in England. She is, after all, from England. Anyway, getting distracted…
The point is, that she does have a point. The radio in Australia is pretty dodge. The Austerio Network seems to have a vested interest in keeping all Australian radio as uniform as possible. Means you have access to four stations, they all sound the bloody same. And boring.
I recently went to the Woodford Folk festival, and the amount and quality of music there is unspeakably awesome. Upon my return, I’ve found that I’m living on JJJ alone. However, I have a thirst. A thirst for awesome music, that cannot, nay, will not be ignored. That even JJJ cannot quench.
Luckily I have this thing called the internet. And with it, I have access to any awesome old radio station that broadcasts via the internet.
However, I don’t really know where to look. That’s where you come in dear reader. Please – recommend me a fantastic place for good Net Radio, and free me from these Popshackles.

Why Don't I have People Like This on My Radio?

I learnt to avoid radio from an early age, even finding that internet radio doesn't quite cut the mustard.
Try out the community radio stations.
Me self's prefer the find the good music, buy it, and listen to that for the rest of my life.
If I need something new, yes, I will check out Triple J. Recently found out about a group called 'Blue King Brown'. Sounds pretty sweedish...
