black_matter Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 Do you have the facilities to broadcast a band or artist live from the station, just out of pure interest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartmaxwell Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 If downloads are enabled and the quality's good enough, and if we have your permission we can use them on the radio.if you think a myspace compressed music file is good enough for radio then I would say you are a buffoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black_matter Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 if you think a myspace compressed music file is good enough for radio then I would say you are a buffoonSee I really have to agree with that. I highly doubt myspace quality files are of radio broadcasting quality. I for one would not want myspace files of my music being broadcast on radio as it wouldn't be the best quality whatsoever.

original_andy Posted November 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 We have, on last week's show and the week before it played tracks downloaded from myspace with no discernible loss of quality - Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings and Panda Eyes. We have also had to say no to tracks because of the compression. If you don't want us to play music from your myspace page then send us a CD. Simple.Sunday ShowcaseOriginal HouseCraigshaw RoadAberdeenAB12 3AR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

original_andy Posted November 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 Yeah... I'm wishing I never mentioned Myspace now. Just send me cds or e-mail tracks but point me towards myspace if you want me to hear your tunes, and if worst comes to worst we can play the myspace track on air. Jan, because there was a two week difference between interviewing MC and then putting the interview on air the CD got misplaced - all my fault. I have found it though. So, if this sort of loveable incompetence warms you to the North East of Scotland's greatest new radio show do get in touch.andew.learmonth@originalfm.comThe Sunday Showcase - getting better all the time.

Guest idol_wild Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 Keep it up, Andy. There are few shows willing to showcase local music and actually attend the shows and interview them.If a band has no problem with you using the myspace tracks then I don't see where there is a problem at all. I've downloaded tracks from myspace, put them on my ipod, and been impressed with the quality.It'll be interesting to see how many bands actually bother their arses to provide a CD for the show.

Darth Elvis Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 Just finished our first demo and will make sure I pop one up to you Andy.Our myspace page if you want a listen is MySpace.com - Hidden Leaves - Aberdeen, UK - Alternative / Rock / Experimental - www.myspace.com/hiddenleavesukA couple of downloadable tracks on here but will drop off CD as Sunlight is not downloadable.

Bilzor Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 We've got a few tracks on our myspace if you want , we've got a cd of other stuff but it might be easier if I just give you the myspace. MySpace.com - The Psychedelic Circus - aberdeenshire, UK - Psychedelic / Blues / Other - www.myspace.com/thepsychedeliccircus Right now the tracks are downloadable off of myspace, but do you want us to email them to you or would you take it off the myspace?
