Radio Update

Monday, July 24th, 2006

The internet radio explosion just keeps getting bigger and better. As many of you know I’ve been working with different stations for a while now broadcasting around the world different shows and guestmixes.

I started (seriously) with ETN.fm doing guestmixes for friends. Once I realized the power of the internet it was only a matter of time before I found my own residency. After a few small startup stations I finally landed with Party107.com and my appropriately titled show: BOOM!

BOOM has been running well now receiving excellent feedback with a growing listener base. Having passed the inaugural 25 episode mark a short while back things seem to be flowing nicely. I have had quite a number of quality guestmixes from an array of the most talented artists in the scene. Previous guests include Andy Moor, Emphased Reality, Gabriel Batz, Hawk, Matias Lehtola, and Thomas Bronzwaer

Future guests are to include such guests as Kenneth Thomas, Elevation, and Eddie Halliwell, just to name a few.

If you would like to be a guest on the show, please send me an e-mail request, which you can find in the Contact section.

Also look for me to guestmix for a number of shows in the near future. A few off hand are:

Montreal Mix Sessions” with Gabriel Batz airing on Beatbox Radio and Party107

Amplified Radio with DJ Ampz airing on ETN.fm, 2HP.ca, HotTrance Radio, BeatBoxRadio, Party107, AQH Radio, Energy 105.5FM, Oh My Trance!, XTC Radio, tracklists.ca, and enSonic.FM

Nordic Moments” with Matias Lehtola airing on Party107.com

I hope everyone is enjoying the summer and I hope to see you all soon!

Saturday, July 1st, 2006

Summer is in full swing now as we enter the start of July. Everyone is driving around with their windows down and music blaring, guys are chasing after the girls in bikini’s, and the World Cup is heating up full force.

I’d just like to thank everyone for the support thus far into 2006. We’re halfway through the year and already I’m overwhelmed with how amazing everything is going. I’d just like to share a few stats with you to show you just what I mean:

Website: over 500,000 hits since January 2006
MySpace: over 10,000 views since January 2006
TheDJList: Ranked 30th in Canada as of July 1st

I know a DJ is absolutely nothing without fans and support so thank you to everyone! Have a safe weekend and party hard!
