Creating OUR Radio - Step 1

***

We figured the best way to make Elements Radio the most enjoyable for the whole community is to survey the future listeners about their preferences before seriously touching anything. There will be a series of these topics, and all of them will feature a simple question or two, or a poll, which only takes a few seconds to answer. Hopefully the majority will partake in this process, and we can launch it as soon as possible. So please, check in from time to time and share your opinion to make it the best it can be!

Now let us start with the basics. As in all Radio stations, a great portion of the shows are made of pure Music. And everybody loves Music, only our tastes differ.

So our first question is: What is your personal earcandy? What do you like to listen to while having your daily dose of Elements Chat, or which musical style brings out the grinder from you? Any favorite bands or composers? Share it! We love them all :]

Or, rather, lack thereof.

tl;dr what everyone else says as long as it doesn't break my "grinding focus"

The music must be free, and somehow mainstream and not getting on your nerves.
Which music do shops play to sell their products ?
I think Easy Listening/Ambience are good directions, slow guitar or piano.
And of cause music, which is produced by the community .
I mean, there are thousands of radio stations in the internet with a variety of music styles, our radio station must have sth "special".

I'm fine with anything other than rap. Actually, there's even some rap I like xD

My only recommendation is that we play a variety of music rather than just one genre. Quiet, calm music is nice for grinding, but exciting music can be too if you're playing a tense PvP match.

Trance, progressive rock, heavy metal, or rap.
For me, almost anything goes as long as the tempo is very fast (or very slow, no middle ground)

If it's fast, I'm probably fine with it.
Instrumentals and songs without a ton of lyrics are usually pretty good for me too.

I like everything but screamo where the lyrics are /all/ screams and dirty rap. excessive country can be annoying too.

70's rock would be the way to go, in my opinion. Nice pace, perfect for grinding to.

Psytrance/Futurepop - Infected Mushroom, Dapanji, Astrix, Astral Projection, VNV Nation
Fast metal/funk/industrial - Demetori, Machinae Supremacy, Touhou music, Rage Against the Machine, some NIN, some Slipknot

Mainly. The most important thing is that it can put you in the zone.

For more relaxed tempo, things like VNV Nation's calmer songs. (Airships, Perpetual, etc.)

Progressive trance, techno.
No, rock and heavy-metal makes it too hard to focus on grinding.

Post by: Kakerlake on April 23, 2012, 02:00:05 pm
Hm... well for grinding, I like Rock, Punk and similar stuff.
A few groups with a bunch of awesome songs that just popped into my mind are: "Unheilig", "Foo Fighters", "The Bloodhound Gang", "The Offspring", "Ramstein", "Stratovarius" and "Nightwish".

When I'm sitting in the chat, doing some stalking or something that requires the use of the brain, I prefer no sound at all, or just something calm, relaxing and not too loud.

I can listen to pretty much anything that isn't Techno.. or house... or electro... or other stuff which has a own name but is actually just the same as Techno.That just makes my ears bleed and my forehead red and hurting *smack*.

Also MLP theme. When drunk.

Pretty much anything without many real lyrics. Preferably instrumental rock, VGM, and any variation of techno or drum-and-bass.

I'm much of a metalhead, but I enjoy anything with a solid beat and vocals that aren't edited beyond belief.

Personal favorites include Epica, Kamelot, Eluveitie, Korpiklaani, Sixx AM, In Extremo, Siddharta, Sisters Of Mercy, Nick Cave, and then some.



Really, the only thing I'd love to see in Elements Radio is consistency: I really dislike when musical styles jump all over the place over the course of a half hour. Some tracks from a similar genre/artist, or at least with a similar tempo just makes it much easier to listen to for me.

Here I was thinking I was the only one in the elements community who liked Sixx AM. On a more related note, I like bands like Motley Crue, and Alice Cooper.

My turn!

... Anything that wasn't released in the past 20 or so years, unless it was released by a band FROM 20 or more years ago (i.e, classic rock). I almost never listen to radio stations hosted by the game I'm playing simply because there's so much (IMO) junk music floating around there. Classic rock is enjoyable, hard to find offensive (most of the songs, at least) and doesn't break your focus. I also strongly despise the "sex, drugs, money" mindset of the latest generations music.

Just my 2  :electrum

I usually like things that are either in your face, or slower and atmospheric.

The atmosphere and "drive" are most important aspects.

Electronic-ish: Bit Shifter, Armin van Buuren, clAud9, Nullsleep, VNV Nation, Higedriver, Renard Queenston, Nujabes.

Rock/Metal: Machinae Supremacy, Vocaloid Rock (Gumi - Mozaik Roll).

And others, which always slip my mind...

You know, rather than creating one station for the entire game, why not enable, if possible, some way to upload your own song choices to a queue.  Choices will be removed as the person uploading them leaves.  Also, maybe having the option to have a "private station"?  Just brain dumping now...

I know this is a bit off-topic, but I couldn't find a topic that wasn't locked or was more appropriate for this post, so I'm putting it here:

I don't mind if you use any of my music from my Newgrounds (http://"http://timerclock14.newgrounds.com/") or Soundcloud (http://"http://www.soundcloud.com/timerclock14") page (I put most of my music on both accounts).

Pretty much anything off of the Newgrounds Audio Portal (http://"http://www.newgrounds.com/audio") is also usable because of the CC-BY-NC Creative Commons Copyright placed on every submission ever uploaded. We're not making money off of this (money made off of ads is too indirect to actually matter), and as long as we have the song name and name of the contributing artist(s) somewhere relevant in the show we won't run into any trouble.

Also, my favorite genre of music is mostly electronic music; pretty much anything that's down and dirty or bouncy and groovy.

EDIT: I stand corrected, money made off of ads does in fact matter. But only in certain cases, which means I have no idea how that works.

But preferences are rock (Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam, Radiohead), punk (Blink-182, The Offspring) and anything instrumental, because it'll just quietly play in the background unobtrusively :D

A little shameless 'bump'.

As I already said before somewhere: my free time is exponentially growing as the end of the year is closing in, and I'd like to focus a bit more again on this project. I noticed that in the last few months while I had to dedicate myself mostly to RL duties, a "new generation" of players joined the community (don't get me wrong - it's just that I don't know many of you) and I would like to know your tastes as well.

Apart from that; an average of 300 people visit the Forums daily (not counting Guests, of course), and so far only 30 shared their favorites. Though diverse as it is, it's still just a minority.

So please, don't spare me.

Should be reversed: Which ones would you want to listen to.

I still like the original idea of having 12 stations, one for each element, with a different kind of music of each. It gives people different options instead of having one set list of music. I think some of the suggested pairings would come out a lot different now, with how popular electronic has gotten in two years.

Though tempting the idea is, please note that currently I'm the only one working on this project, and while I guess I *could* do something like that - it would become more than a full-time job for me to not only create, but to maintain all the 12 stations. I'm planning to involve more people as the idea is becoming more and more of a reality, but seeing the limited feedback I got so far, I doubt it will be anytime soon. Also, I'm trying to look further than simple, one-time music mixes, as if all goes well, we could even have many other things on air, like interviews, "talkshows", news and such; just like a real radio station. But we'll see about that.

However, let's stay on topic, please. It's easier for me to 'gather stats' that way.

I understand while saying this that the vast majority of people here won't agree with my likes, but they are my likes.

Rock, I've always been a fan of. Rap, I like a bit, but only christian rap, and I stress that. I mostly listen to christian only, but other rock is fine. Christian Rock and Rap is actually what I already listen to while playing Elements.

Personally, I prefer music without lyrics, as I think it flows better. (I love music that just flows!) I also enjoy music that is fast paced. It just make me want to DO something! I also like electronic and dubstep music, though not everyone may be a fan. Irregardless, good luck, as I would love to see this happen.

I bet he would talk about original music compositions for EtGRadio!

Don't take it for granted, though. One o'you guys better go over there and ask him yourself. I don't know him well enough nor am I in such a majority here to make such a proposition on behalf of either party.

I highly encourage this. I would love an elements radio that also included forum news and interviews, especially during War and other major PvP events. The opportunity for propaganda is fantastic.

On topic. I for one am generally a fan of any sort of music that is thoughtful and creative. As generic an answer as that really is, it sounds much more eloquent than the oft repeated phrase, "The only music I don't like is country and rap".

For elements, I think instrumental music would be best, if we're just looking for music to play the game to. I find lyrics and spoken word to be distracting when I'm trying to focus on a task; pure instrumental compositions, however, make it easier to get into "the zone", while also breaking the tedium of mindless grinding. Thus, I'd suggest some sort of orchestral work, both classical and modern, and some form of electronic music. I'm not quite familiar with the idiosyncrasies of different electronic genres, but I assume that you know what I mean when I say that. I'd only request a ban on skrillex.

As far as bands and such I listen to almost everything but country and hard-metal. The majority of what I listen to is along the lines of slightly alternative and/or soft rock such as the following:

Linkin Park Roads Untraveled     -   http://youtu.be/Hfiy5_DZV80

Fallout Boy Dance, Dance   -    http://youtu.be/qVmnkZdbH2U

I also listen to alot of instrumentals which I have a whole playlist of (these two are cool):

Crazy Rock Beat    -    http://youtu.be/3qwpdYbLZ9g

And this is different from the rock theme of the rest of my suggestions:
Street Influence    -    http://youtu.be/Ak9CxmqVgBI

I think there is nobody here anymore who still works on this elements radio, so maybe this topic should be closed... please correct me if I am wrong.

Only a small correction: The topic should stay.

It's true that I've put the project on hold indefinitely (mostly because of time-, and sometimes maybe interest issues), but I also have two ~1hour mixes (thematically: Death and Aether - lacking only the final touches), and several tracklists ready if the Radio ever gets launched.

That said, my failure started with the vision of a bit more "live-action" radio show, exclusive to Elements. But it turns out that a project with this scale needs much more time and dedication that I can currently offer, and also a bit more manpower. So:

I'd be very happy.

Really? Aww, and I just found this topic and thought it was a good idea.

I also thought about this being a good idea, and obviously there is still somebody left using this thread.

I will take that opportunity: Mostly I listen to Nightcore/Trance and Pop.

And i think I would listen to an elements radio for the whole day :D

The idea is good and viable, but the problem is that every decent live-radio streaming service requires some kind of monthly payment. Which means that zanz would have to add it to the funding cost of EtG and the forums (extremely unlikely) or, the much more realistic option, is that a community member would have to fund this out of pocket.

I think a much more viable option than having a radio show would be doing a weekly podcast, although that's not quite as an "exciting" option as a radio show, it's much more doable one.

Hell, we could record skype calls if we wanted. I think just getting this thing started would be great, decent audio quality interviews can come later.

Yo, I know this guy (http://www.youtube.com/user/SamoeOfficial) from another forum that we both posted on once or twice. I can certainly assure you guys of the quality of his songs.

He's pretty nice. I can contact him for you if you want too.

This (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGHJl3Cobro) is one of his songs if you want to listen.

I actually really liked the sound of that song. It's definitely not necessary, but if you're up to it, I'd love to have him on the show for a possible interview and maybe a special event featuring his music.

A general note for everyone: there will be a thread (at a later date, but soon) about setting up special events/interviews/etc.

No dubstep, no hard techy beats, no blacky black rappy rap, and no horrible bands from this generation.

I bet there's tons of kiddies in this thread just hoping to god there will be dubstep, my toilet can make better sounds.

I can sence the presence of an intolerant person over here... Well, just so you know: There will be almost every music, to open up to as much people as possible. There will be dubstep, and there will be techno, there will be oldies too, etc. Even if you or I or somebody else may not like every single song on this planet.

No. I think every music is good. If it sounded like that, I have to apologize. But you implied that some newer music is bad...

Hmm. I'll contact him now with some details, see if he's interested in lending us his music and perhaps his time.

THERE.
WILL.
BE.
DUBSTEP.

*bass drop*
*alien noises*

There will be all kinds of music, so if you don't like the (genre of) music being played that hour, then you can just stop listening ^.^
For your reference, you should keep track of this thread (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,50777.0.html) to see exactly what genre will be playing and when.

To behonest, there are a lot of people with a lot of diferent musical genres preferences, so much that you will end up probably having a bit of everything. so why ask?

Exactly. If that genre isn't your cup of tea, then just don't listen to it.
(or if you've knocked it before you've tried it, maybe give it a try and you might like it.)

I like anything from classic rock, jazz, blues, all kinds of metal (heavy metal, death metal, grind core, metal core, black metal.. you name it) to electronica (dubstep, some drum and bass, all kinds of trance, darkcore, house, dance.. again: you name it) and I am also a fan of good hip-hop (the Australian stuff is pretty good; Bliss'n'Eso, The Hilltop Hoods..). Additionally, I love ambient (Aphex Twin all the way!) and am a huge fan of Marilyn Manson. Finally, I also listen to some industrial music and industrial metal.

Be happy I did not list all the genres that I enjoy listening to :P
