We are going to start an online radio station dedicated to Metal music of all sorts. But in order to do that we need to gather some info, so we have built this survey just for that purpose:
https://goo.gl/forms/GDlVxsXiiyHAs1v33The survey will help us understand what the metal community (you) wants, and will show us the best way to deliver content to you. If you have a new band and you want to have some songs featured in the future, you can write down songs/albums/links in the suggestion tab in the survey. We will think about it and contact you back when we will get started to discuss legal/copyright stuff.
Feel free to share this survey, really... we don't mind.
Answers to potential questions:
a) Only the music in the poll will be broadcasted?
No. The bands and music recommended in the survey are just fragments of our repertoire, which aim to familiarize the participants with bands they have not heard before (a top 3 songs of the bands presented, chosen by us).
b) Will there only be large / known bands?
No. We intend to introduce you to small, new, controversial, unknown bands that show potential. For the beginning, these (above) will be featured in a live show, 1-2 hours a day, 1-2 times a week, as some want to listen to their favorite giants instead of that new bands, and also because legal issues (copyright and other authorizations).
c) Will the radio ever be heard in AM / FM format?
Probable. It is our dream to get to broadcast AM / FM on the territory of Romania (at first), but in the path of this dream there are many obstacles such as:
- Much more authorizations and fees than those required for online streaming (that's why we start online).
- Exponential funds. In order to receive the radio station on the entire city surface, we need equipment of at least $ 10,000 (without including the rents required to place the transmiter antennas and other permits).
- Much more work and planning. Getting an AM / FM domain in Romania lasts for at least 6 months (just to get a frequency). Together with many other authorizations and contracts, this project can take up to 1-2 years if the necessary funds are available.
d) You can ask more questions in your comments.
This project is a long-lasting project (which means that somewhere in 5-6 months from now on, we will continue to prepare, gather opinions, make decisions and obtain the necessary authorizations). But with your opinion (and completing the survey) we can build together a radio that's worth listening to.
Thanks for your time!
