Loz 0 Posted October 7, 2003 Report Share Posted October 7, 2003 Hi, I'm going to be starting a regular spot at one of our local nightspots the only problem is I've been a mobile jock for the last 25 years. Obviously I can get away with alot of the usual chart stuff but I'm going to need a bit of more upfront material as well. Therefore I wondered if any of you would be generous enough to pass on any websites where I can keep up to date with any new releases. I've got the usual Radio 1 and Dotmusic sites but thought there might be somewhere with release date details for up to 4 weeks in advance. I understand that this is a mobile disco forum so most jocks won't be worried much about being too far in front, but any help would be appreciated. Bearing in my mind I haven't got access to any cable music channels and I'm 39, married with two kids---------------where's that http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html/emoticons/censored.gif violin when you want it!! http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html/emoticons/sterb188.gif Party to the Max, With Happy Traxx Link to post Share on other sites
Whisky In A Vase 0 Posted October 7, 2003 Report Share Posted October 7, 2003 i keep looking at variuos websites but RAdio 1 seems to be the best Link to post Share on other sites
Dj SBD 0 Posted October 7, 2003 Report Share Posted October 7, 2003 I used a site with all the number ones of each week of each dates etc.., also added are eurovision etc.. good site,I'll find a link for you. http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif Hi everyone ;-) Link to post Share on other sites
The Spindoctor 0 Posted October 8, 2003 Report Share Posted October 8, 2003 Well I tend to keep as far ahead as possible at 47, 4 kids etc etc stop moaning!! LOL I tend to use the Dot music site as it gives you the new releases 4 - 6 weeks in advance thats plenty for most people. Play anything newer than that and people are not interested as they have never heard it anyway! Spin Link to post Share on other sites
Eskie 0 Posted October 8, 2003 Report Share Posted October 8, 2003 Try the HMV site. You'll see links for 'New Releases' & 'Coming Soon' both give good info for many music genres. For R&B/Rap a couple of good sites are: Vibin' then click on 'Music' and then on 'New Releases' and you can actually listen to all the new releases. The Blues & Soul site is also good. Go to the 'Charts' section and check out 'The Hiplist'. But be warned this can be extremely upfront. The singles charts though are anything but upfront!

Loz 0 Posted October 8, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2003 Thanks Guys, at least judging by your replies I'm still keeping up with the music. It's only when my Daughter comes over she asks me if I heard the new one by such and such, so it just got me thinking where is she finding out this type of stuff. http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif Party to the Max, With Happy Traxx Link to post Share on other sites

The Spindoctor 0 Posted October 8, 2003 Report Share Posted October 8, 2003 Another one which when you mentioned daughters asking you jogged my memory. I f you have Sky watch The Box which my teenagers watch constantly, click on text and anything in yellow is new!! Forgot all about that one! Spin Link to post Share on other sites
Loz 0 Posted October 9, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2003 Hi Spin, thanks for your reply. It looks like I'm going to have to subscribe to some of these music channels. I used to have Sky but had it took out cause there was never anything worth watching and they tried charging me for two films I had supposedly seen so I don't know whether they've still got my details.

Loz 0 Posted October 14, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2003 Do you know thats exactly what I thought on Sunday. I was reading the magazine you get free with the Sunday paper and at the back there are loads of adverts for ringtones, under the new releases there are one ot two new tunes I was'nt familiar with so they are obviously out or being released soon.
