Two years on the air! They said it wasn’t possible – it couldn’t be done. And I proved them… Actually, no one said any of that. But the station is on and broadcasting 24/7. It’s been quite a year and let me, DJ Daemon tell you about all the stuff we’ve been through together.One hour of the newest additions to the station of tracked music.00:00 ericade.radio – Good evening, here is another hour of tracked music00:06 DJ Daemon: Two years! On the 13th of September 2020, we started broadcasting. And we’re still on. We’ve talked about the creation of the station on a previous episode. So this hour is just a look back at all the mayhem, chaos, broken songs and also some the bad stuff that have happen.
Tracklist
- Good evening, here is another hour of tracked music ericade.radio
- Two years! On the 13th of September 2020, we started broadcasting. And we’re still on. We’ve talked about the creation of the station on a previous episode. So this hour is just a look back at all the mayhem, chaos, broken songs and also some the bad stuff that have happen. Intermission · 0:24
- Flirt talk Malmen
- better audio and why not a bit of recognition. Jono Woodward’s voice had replaced Nicole’s and the first version of the music database was already online. And it all was looking up. Intermission · 0:47
- Nights Darkhalo
- Our show and podcast, Flashback – tracks from the past, ran every week with few exceptions. Intermission · 0:50
- Ascention Coretex
- Getting the best sound was quite a challenge. I had already automated importing the tracker tunes, so they all had the same sound levels and track information. I also put a lot of effort in tuning the broadcast processor running the whole station. This almost got out of hand with countless evenings testing, trimming and measuring. Intermission · 0:33
- SDXB – #5 DNA-Groove
- I decided to create an emergency playlist-generator in order to handle outages. It didn’t really end where I thought it would. Instead of a mere playlist generator, it became a station in its own right. It ran all the old shows and had news from Feature Story News every hour. Getting all that to work was quite an undertaking. Intermission · 0:52
- Distant heavens Tnk
- As I was no longer broadcasting live after August 2021, focus shifted towards developing the website and the database. I built the dashboards showing the operation of the station. It looked like the NASA space center in my 3 square meter work room. Screens, panels and cables everywhere. Intermission · 0:33

- The Big Data Psirius
- How would I know if the songs I play choose were unpopular? With the database I could rank the worst offenders by checking what was playing when people disconnected. But I decided to ask the listeners. And so was done by adding a Star-system, allowing users rate what was playing. It worked perfectly. Intermission · 0:44
- Journey to Micronesia Tnk
- There’s no way you can make our broadcast software, PlayIt live, to accept listener requests. This I was told. That was my “challenge accepted – hold my beer”-moment. Given the data we had, I built a Rube Golberg-esque machine that made the users able to search for songs. It made quite a splash on the Facebook-group with the other PlayIt Live broadcasters. I even got two offers to sell the solution. Intermission · 0:51
- Night Air Melcolm
- During 2022, the show started focusing on the music and the demo parties over stortytelling. I created a series of episodes showcasing different genres of music. I also improved audio quality and threw out all Amiga-tunes twice to remaster them with better sound. They’re all now pretty darn well-sounding and in mono. Problem finally solved.
