Hey guys! I run my own online radio station called "TOXICANT RADIO", and it has been nominated for Best Radio Station for 2005 at the Morpheus Music Awards site.

Anyways, you can vote for Toxicant Radio here: http://www.morpheusmusic.co.uk/html/awards2005.htm It's in the third section down, on the left.

I host mostly ambient and space music with the occasional trance composition. The ambient genre is quite broad including chillout, jazz ambient, drone, and melodic.

It's not cheating if 1 person gives 1 vote.

If you goto that page, scroll all the way to the bottom...the last set of three tables there is a table for best radio station (on the left). If all else fails, do Edit > Find (on This Page...) or ctrl+F for Toxicant

Maybe we should all cash in, and hold them to it.

So, you use a lot of gas in Waterloo? I was born in Keokuk, but that's been a lot of years ago, and it was so much cheaper.

Who gives a *****?

He's one of our guys, and needs our vote, what's to ask?

You think the guys he's trying to beat ain't asking their friends to vote for them? I say, vote early and often ....it's the American way.

It doesn't bother anyone to vote for the Drag Times ********* list. :banned:

Thanks guys! For those who want to listen: http://207.67.56.126:8000/listen.pls

And normally I wouldn't ask for help in regards to this, but Digitally Imported is so huge that it throws off the vote. They win every time because that have TONS of servers, and thousands of listeners.

:eek: Thanks guys!!! THIS ROCKS!!!! :rock:


What do I need to listen to your station ??

You need Windows Media Player, or Winamp (On Windows OS), or iTunes (On Mac). I'm going to assume you have Windows, so when you open the Windows Media player, just press ctrl+U and type in: http://207.67.56.126:8000 press ok! :)

Additionally if you Konfabulator (http://www.konfabulator.com) you can download my Toxicant Widget (http://www.toxicantradio.net/RadioStatus.zip), and stream through that if you'd like.

Very cool, Jourdan.

I like seeing the playlist.

Your widget is very cool.
Are there any skins for it ?

How do I send you audio to put up on your station ?

I've been listening for a couple of hours now and am really enjoying it! Thanks again for sharing!

The widget is not skinnable, nor do I plan on making that feature available. I may at some point allow users to change the text colors, though this would be pointless since many text elemets within are actually images, not text. The next version may have this feature, along with the autoscrolling news only available on mouse over.

I'm not sure what you mean by sending me 'audio to put up' on my station, but if you want to browse my library and make requests goto http://request.toxicantradio.net (There's a button in the widget for this too). Once you're at the site it shows you the current playlist, but on the bottom you can press the 'Show All' button allowing you to browse through all the songs available. Click on a song to que it into the playlist.

As for sending me audio that I don't have, the artist would have to send it to me.

You got my vote! The percentage isn't as high as previously reported, but you are on top, though :up:

Plus someone posted a link to http://naioa.com/impalabb/viewtopic.php?t=6107 (I'm getting a bandwidth exceeded message, but I assume it's probably an ask for votes)

Ahh...it appears that votes were dumped. And Digitally Imported is gaining votes. I know there were many more than 17 votes the other day. What's up with that, Jourdan?

I started using the shortcut at my office the day Jourdan posted it. Every few hours, you have to hit the play button, but other than that, it's a real treat. Folks are coming into my office just to sit back and relax. Thanks, Jourdan, now I have no privacy at all!
