More power hours and blocks would be nice. They are really awesome

I was just about to mention this. The Rotterdam Terror Corps block didn't go down that well but there's a nice classical block coming up in about 10 hours time! IRC is the best place for organising them.

To maintain song diversity, we've increased the song replay rate to 72 hours so now you have to wait 72 hours before the same song can be added.

Though seriously, with 140,000 to choose from, you should never have to add the same dong twice!

In my opinion, the best Power Hours are those which cause the most ire. I'm already anxiously anticipating the first anime/J-Pop Power Hour.

It's kind of funny because I can just listen to it on my computer but listening to it and watching the songs' ratings plummet and goons gripe would be marvelous.

I was once for awhile on the old site. Then I was hellbanned, and cat-eared, out-right banned, etc.
It was undone and repeated quite a few times.

Mr. Pither: May 28, 2006; Hello, friends!

I thought Christina Carmi eventually revealed that she was invited to the first site back when invites were a feature. Gimmick or not, I'll always admire her persistence. She must have spent a good year or two reppin' the Lord every day in the face of unanimous opposition.

I added GBS-FM to http://www.yourmuze.fm/ for you Blackberry users.

Wow, this is awesome. I always had trouble streaming to my blackberry, but this reduces the bitrate for you. I'm streaming on a lovely EDGE connection with no stuttering or anything. This should be in the OP.

We just had a small issue with someone duping a few j-tracks. (I know, I know, one copy is more than enough). Particularly for j-pop but also for any artists which use some form of moonicode in their name, please search for both versions of the name or search by track title as well before you upload.

Wouldn't want anyone to waste their time uploading an artist discography we already have, cheers.

(Since this one was my fault...)

If you're going to upload Asian artists, please retag them with romanized names in Western name order (family name last).

Also, Isao Tomita isn't j-pop!

Cemetry Gator: Apr 3, 2007; Do you find something comical about my appearance when I'm driving my automobile?

Seriously, searching doesn't take that long. I uploaded a ton of Byrds singles, and I made sure to check under "Birds" and "Byrds" and a few song titles. Once I was convinced there was no chance in hell that these songs existed, I did my dirty work.

Except for Turn! Turn! Turn! (To Everything There is a Season). That was already up there.

After making a comment on one of the Starfox songs, I realized it was a good tagline for gbs.fm:

That's why I said j-tracks referring to this artist, but the majority of moonicode seems to be on j-poop, there was a distinction.

I left gbs.fm on when I fell asleep tonight by accident and was woken up by the neighbors demanding me to turn it down. When I fell asleep, the station was playing nice, pleasant music. Sometime during the night somebody decided that there wasn't enough terrible godawful noise being played.

That's pretty much the theme block for tonight. Terrible 10-minute collections of digital samples of videogame speech with occasional music tracks.
