Disconnected Mixes

by on Jul.23, 2012, under News

For the last few weeks on Saturday, usually around 7pm ET, I have been getting on my decks and just having fun. I don’t really advertise it, but I do stream it on my own server (http://radio.derek-sanders.net:8000). I’ve been having a blast doing these; mainly for the reason that I have my entire collection to pick from when doing so. The problem with the radio shows is that they’re mostly my outlet for showing my favorite new tracks, and I never revisit the tracks.

I posted this past Saturday’s recording as Disconnected 001, and plan to continue to do this every week. I realize that 7pm ET is probably when everyone is going out, so maybe Sunday is a better day for this? Or just earlier in the day? If I get enough feedback I will solidify a time for this, and open up more spots on the radio stream.

    From my streaming experience I can tell you that viewers come in waves, and chances are you might get more listeners from different parts of the world at unexpected times. So 4am might be good for Asia and 2pm can be good in EU. There are also folks who’ll listen to streams and won’t go out that much, coders, gamers etc.

      Yea, that’s certainly true. My bigger problem is going to be just getting the word out that I am doing these. I was leaning towards middle of the day (1300 EDT) on Sundays.

      I’ve been wanting to do this for a while, just never got around to formalizing it.
