fyi : there once was a show called "nu-vox radio" & i was its host ...

however ... the main reason , why i write this message here now is not simply a nostalgic one , but actually based on an idea to revive a good thing in a wee bit different way again ! ;-)

fyi : once "nu-vox radio" was a specific format , where a certain musician or a band could introduce their music & themselves to a new audience via that radio show , but what i have in mind right now is something else : as there are still A LOT of musicians & bands , who @ least read this forum , albeit they may not participate that much here currently , i thought "why not make a special radio show with A GOOD SELECTION of several bands & musicians to play every now & then , who are members of this or the ev ( ultravox ) forum ?"
i would like to start to compile a list of indeed interested candidates now for a 1st show in oct. & try to find @ least 10 or 12 musicians & bands that send in ONE SONG EACH to be played in that show !

anyone interested in this only slightly new , bust still good - imho , of course ;-) - concept , fellows ?

if so , jus' reply here to show your interest & we'll see , how things progress from this point on ! :-)

cheers to y' all ! :-)

Hi Olaf,

What a good idea.

I think the Mateyblokes would be interested but we would probably have trouble deciding which track.

Brian

Great idea, Olaf. I'd be very interested (if chosen)in participating in this. The only problem is that my music is not radio friendly, so you may lose a few listeners if my stuff is played

Mark Henson

thanx a lot for your interest , brian & mark ! :-)

btw : the music ( or "noise" ;-) that u chose as YOUR SONG to be played in such a show DOESN'T have to be "radio friendly" in any way , as everything is possible ... which the regular listeners of my "alien disco" or other shows most likely know already ! ;-)

anyway ... brian & kerry can chose a song from each other , so brian can chose one of kerry's songs & kerry one of brian's ! :-)

mark , u are free to participate with WHATEVER track / song / epos u want ... as long as it's not much longer than about 10 minutes * ! ;-)

so we have already the 1st 3 participants for the reopening show sometime in oct. ! :-)

who's next ? ;-)

the "rules" are rather simple : who comes 1st will also be played in the 1st show ! :-)

cheers , fellows ! :-)

* the only real rule is that a song should not be much longer than 10 minutes nor shorter than a minute ! ;-)
it doesn't matter , if it's an original or a cover version , an instrumental or an acapella or a remix or jus' ... a song ! :-)

Thanks Olaf - That's eased my mind a bit. I have another project called The Atomic Orchestra Of Radioactive Europe & a mini cd entitled Nuclear Chocolate. Would I be able to submit a track from this, as well as an Apparatus And Hand track?

Mark

sure , why not ? ;-)

1st come , 1st played ! ;-)

cheers ! :-)

jus' bumping this thread up again to ask "who's next ?" , as there are currently only 4 entries for a possible 1st show in oct. ! ;-)

sarah , alex , logan ... etc. , what about u , fellows ?

Olaf, can I send you my tracks via email? Message me please.

Mark

yep ... u can send them to my the e-mail addy that u can find above every posting of mine , when u click on the "email" button ! ;-)

cheers ! :-)

Glad to see theres some interest in 'Nu Vox' here, as theres not too much at E.V. I still promise not to submit any tracks though. Suppose the reason for more interest here is because theres more people here who make their own music. The two big players over there are obviously 'Monument' and 'YTDS', hope their both up for it too.

i suppose that don & the other monument guys think that the special that i did about them some years ago - incl. a live interview via phone ! - was already enough ! *hehehe*

maybe they expect me to ask them privately instead of jus' asking in general in a public forum ?

i don't know ...

... but the same goes for this forum too !

HERE's the place to talk about it , fellows ! ;-)

Hi-I would certainly be interested in contributing a track of mine,thanks for alerting me to this.
Logan 5

Hi Olaf

COUNT ME IN!!

Cheers

Sarah

thanx a lot for your positive replies , logan & sarah ! :-)

btw : don of monument has also answered positively over in the ev forum & by now the list is almost complete for the 1st new show in oct. ! :-)

well ... i jus' need some feedback from phil of ytds , alex s. & maybe one or two others here or there ( in the ev forum ) to start "collecting" songs for that special show ! ;-)

cheers ! :-)

Looks as if the interest has picked up and is about 70% towards a complete list now. It was good to see Don's up for it, sounding good!!!!

Hi Olaf,

I haven't written anything new in quite a while, though the great tracks I'm hearing by other forum members has got me itching to get back at the synths again.

I've got a few tracks posted in the Media section of EV. If that's the sort of thing you're looking for, then I'd love to contribute!

Cheers!

Andy

We now have the support of many musicains here at 'Metamatic' and the two biggest cover bands at EV, 'Monument' and 'YTDS'.

Time to delete (possible) from the thread title, maybe?

done now ! ;-)

btw : thanx a lot for all your support so far , fellows ! :-)

now we can make further plans & decide on the songs to be send in to me to be played in the reopening show in oct. ! :-)

to all participants : please send your song to my e-mail addy that is listed here in the forum !

You just want 1 song?

....that'll be a tough decision, but I'll get one to you!!

1 song for each show ! ;-)

anyway ... as it seems by now i'll have 8 participants for the reopening show in oct. ... & if everybody of them would like to have 2 songs played i suppose that it would be more than i could fit in a 1 hour long show ! :-o
of course u can also send me 2 songs each & let me decide , which one to play , but i think that i could only play about 12 or maybe 13 songs & so not every participant would have 2 songs played in the show then !

as u can see , it's actually as tough for me as it is for u to decide , which songs we'll finally choose for the 1st show !

any suggestions how to solve this lil' problem in the best possible way , fellows ?

hi fellows !

u can now start sending in your songs to my e-mail addy ! :-)

fyi : the show will be on sunday , the 21st of oct. , so there's enough time to plan things beforehand ! ;-)

cheers ! :-)
