More Extreme Weather in TN Today…

has made it necessary once again to revert to our back-up playlist which is located on the Live365 server. We’ll switch back to our regular schedule once the nastiness has passed through our area.

** Tornado Watches in TN Today **

Due to the extremely active weather expected in our region today (April 24, 2010), our regularly scheduled programming may be replaced with a back-up playlist located on the Live365 server. We won’t risk irreversible lightning damage to our equipment, but will return to our regular programming as soon as it is safe to do so. Please stay tuned.

Spring!

Birds, squirrels, rabbits, raccoons, possums, and deer seemed to go into a feeding frenzy off the seed and grains I placed on the patio for them during the late Summer and early Fall last year. This should have warned me of the Winter we ultimately experienced.
Now we enter Spring, a time for renewal and growth.
Speaking of growth, Neuron Radio has experienced a growth with respect to the number of various nations represented by listenership, and we thank you! All we do is play the type of music we enjoy, and are pleased that you enjoy it, too. Thank you for listening, and we hope you’ll spread the word about Neuron Radio. Enjoy!

‘Tis the Season…

…when thoughts of spending catch-up time with valued family and friends cross the mind, and Mother Nature prepares the northern hemisphere for the winter season.

To those who celebrate the upcoming holidays, Neuron Radio wishes you and yours the happiest and safest times.

We’ve added some holiday tunes to our normal format, but recognize that not everyone is crazy about Xmas music . That’s why we’ll only be playing 2 or 3 per hour until Xmas day, when we will cease playing them. There are plenty of stations which focus only on Xmas music during the season, but Neuron Radio isn’t one of them. We’re sticking to our normal format with the exceptions noted above, so tune in each day for the music you love.

Happy Holidays!

Spring has Sprung!

I hope all is well on your patch of terra firma. Spring is frequently an active weather time here in Tennessee, especially thunderstorms. Thunderstorms mean lightning, and lightning does not play well with computers or modems. Why do I mention this? Glad you asked. When “active” weather is forecast for our area, Neuron Radio will revert to it’s back-up format, otherwise known as Basic Mode. In order to protect our webcasting system, we switch to a playlist of tracks kept on a server at Live365, our streaming host. When we do this, VIP listeners continue to hear music commercial-free, but Free listeners will hear short Ads placed in the stream by Live365. Listeners will also notice a gap between songs, unlike the nice crossfade transitions normally heard when Neuron Radio streams Live. In Basic Mode, our Show Schedule and Request System at  http://neuronradio.net  will be inoperative until we are able to revert back to Live mode. This is just a heads-up for all of our listeners, so you won’t have to wonder “what’s up?”

Neuron Radio is quickly transitioning to predominantly House music, but we will always play Jazz, RnB, soulful Oldies, and other cool music as well because we love it. Be sure to check our schedule to find out when your favorite genres are being featured. We don’t want you to miss a minute of the music you love.

Drop us a line at aubadge@neuronradio.net or give us a shout (the Shoutout box is right here on the station page), let us know how we’re doing….and thank you for listening!

Just Checkin’ In

I hope everything is cool on your piece of terra firma. We’re still kickin’ it non-stop here at Neuron Radio, and just wanted to express sincere thanks for listening. Internet radio has been “goin’ through somethin’ for the past year or so, in the form of higher royalty rates, higher than satellite radio, and MUCH higher than AM/FM (which does not pay performance royalties). However, we’re not hatin’ on our terrestrial fellow broadcasters – we just want rates that compensate artists for their work and are fair to all who promote their music through airplay, not just a few.

Neuron Radio is still doin’ it around the clock (and calendar), and our automated request system is alive & kickin’, too! Be extra sure to tune in on Tuesdays and Thursdays - those are “Twofer” days, which means that you’ll hear 2 tracks by the same artist(s) back to back all day long! As if that weren’t enough (isn’t that cheesey-sounding? Does it feel like I’m about to sell you a knife that’ll cut through titanium?), all requests on Tuesdays and Thursdays are Twofers!

One last thing – Now is a good time to become a Live365 VIP Preferred Member. Due to the nagging royalty issue, Live365 has found it neccessary to increase fees to broadcasters. At the same time, the number of slots each station now has (depending on broadcast package purchased) fewer slots for Free listeners. What does this mean to you? Well, if you’re a Free listener, it means that you may have more trouble getting into your favorite stations. On the other hand, no station is ever full to VIP Members – VIP’s can always tune into any station in the Live365 network, full or not. If you do decide to sign up for a membership, please do so only through the green button on this page. That way, your favorite broadcaster (Me) will receive a portion of the fee to be applied to my cost of running the station.

That’s all for now – Holla at your girl. Peace.
