Radio Zero: Studio Zero Goes Beta

Marla Singer's picture




 

Having moving into our new facility and having liberated or resurrected a number of pieces of audio hardware thought long lost, eventually we had to put the new digs through their paces. What better night than a Thursday for Studio Zero's first public beta?

The fun begins at 10:45(ish) pm ET and continues until the red bull runs out and the convenience store down the street is closed.

Tonight we'll be testing:

  • BRAND New music from Europe, hot off the digital presses. (Some of it actually pre-release... but SHHHHH).
  • A variety of microphone setups and our soundbooth.
  • The new mixing board.
  • Marla's patience.
  • "Lloyd" has also been promising to do an insta-remix with Marla for a week, live, as you listen. Just the thing for the aspiring producer as Lloyd has produced six top 10 EDM pieces in the last 4 years. It may get ugly, but it will be fun.

Look for the URL in this spot a few minutes before the deadline, and enjoy!

Chat up the DJ(s) and send us mp3 requests: AIM:  radiozh

nice... thanks marla

btw, zh should setup some sort of info distribution mechanism outside of the public internet (look into universities, both for alt networks and distributed distro w/digi signatures, even physical media, etc)... this would keep info flowing if they "mistakenly" kill your dns records and/or block your ip's (useful for certain countries and workplaces now, and the "end of days" in the near future)

Not to mention insecure. I mean, not that anyone here does such things... but I would thinking sending .mp3s, FLACs or the like by AIM file transfer would be effective.

I have noticed a very high correlation to FX volatility when Radio Zero is on(ie. tonight). There must be a lot of FX traders playing keyboards on their terminals.

My cuneiform is poor, but Marla has promised to play the Man with the Red Face at 2:55am to forestall my 3:00am margin call. There is a very high correlation with this song and U.S. dollar rallies. This will get my trade back on side. She has saved me from bankrupcy countless times!

Hey Marla, when ya planning to turn these mega mixes into mp3's? I know you're busy but a time period will give me much to look forward to. I asked a couple sessions ago, but when was ambiguous. You're still planning on it at least, I hope?

Thanks,

In this market?  45 degree slopes.  Just have to plot where to change the +/- sign.

Because the official releases will be remastered, 192kbits or 224 VBR, put through some nice post-processing and otherwise commercial release quality material and a stream cap is... a stream cap.

Oh I see, so I shouldn't be listening to the stream, I should be waiting for the official remastered version.

Or what exactly were you trying to say?

128kbps @ 44khz is plenty listenable for me. 192kbps is only marginally better, perhaps some more definition in the high end.

And, if one wanted, they could both rip the stream and download the official uber post processed version. No downside there, really.

Are you guys running cd decks or turntables, or some kind of software package like Tracktor?

Nice set, Marla. I caught the last few hours only, but enjoyed.

There is a show called "Expansions" on KEXP (Seattle) that delves into some similar electronica each Sunday evening at 9pm PST. There are 3 DJs:  Masa, Riz, & KidHops. The former 2 IMHO are extremely talented and I have been exposed to a wide array of new sounds thanks to them. You can stream shows for 2 weeks after they air at

http://kexp.org/streamarchive/streamarchive.asp

(listen by time is easiest) Listening to the live stream gets you a little more bandwidth usually (128 vs 96)

Looking forward to your next set (and maybe this time I'll remember the bloody time diference with the East Coast).

I donated $20 to ZH to help cover the streaming music & finance content and I encourage others to do so as well if you enjoyed the show.

Cheers--Dantzler
