Producing a radio program on FUZZ
How could an online radio program be produced on fuzz.com, e.g. by the Almost Fabulous group? One simple solution that comes to my mind would be a playlist, which would include “presentation tracks”, i.e. the dj texts we record ourselves with a microphone. This implies that either the respective presenting member has a microphone and recording facility, or another member gets the text and records it.
Do you have any other ideas how this could be done?
We could rotate with producing the shows. I think they also should be deleted when it’s the next member’s turn (when the next show is up), because a) attention would concentrate on the current show, which would increase the show’s impact, and b) it can be expected that artists on fuzz from time to time delete their songs, so that the playlist cannot stream them anymore and any presentation text would get a nonsense meaning.
What’s your opinion?

Some favorite songs of my contain way too many "th"s .....
DJ or Host: - picks the artists and songs they want to use in the show they're working on.
Once those are chosen, the artists are contacted for permission to use their tracks, once the artists confirm usage, the playlist is created.
Then the DJ/Host writes their script for the program.
Regardless of what language they wish to speak, the english translation is written and labelled the same as the Intro/Breaks#-#/Closing.
Then it can be posted as a blog to accompany the show.
The DJ/Host then records their script, in short bits labelling them Intro break1, break2, break3, etc. and Closing.
Or something along these lines to denote their order, to mirror the playlist order.
So after the DJ/Host uploads their vox tracks, they can be placed as Intro, Song 1, song 2, song 3, break 1, song 4, song 5, break 2, song 6, song 7, song8, Closing.
Not really that hard to manage as long as the playlist and scripts are followed.
Then the listener can detatch the player and find the Blog transcript and read along at the Intro breaks and closing, if they choose to.
It would be cool if musicians and not only non-musicians would host online radio programs too, but if they mainly play their own tracks that would tend to be boring (even if their tracks are good) and people would stop listening.
Apart of that it doesn't all have to deal with music. Music is the main interest on fuzz.com though.
Or we start with a Madonna Special as long it is not 100% sure that this artist page was created by insane Beaman.
Do you know that I saw Heavy Stereo live in the mid nineties? They were opening act for Oasis, who were also good, but not as good as Heavy Stereo.
