Season 4 of LostRadio? Who would have thunk! lol
This is the thread for the ENTIRE SEASON of LostRadio Season 4. I will be updating it weekly. Any and all submissions should be emailed to me at: lostradio@gmail.com.
This season, I have decided to change-up the show's format.
PLEASE READ the following rules CAREFULLY!!!!
Each week, we will have "featured artists". Lots of you have expressed that you've listened to an album or a particular artist/band, and several songs reminded you of characters/plot lines from Lost. So, this year, that's what it's all about. This post will be amended as submissions are received. Each week I will unlock the thread to add a "comment" as to who the featured artists/bands will be for the next show!
HOW TO PARTICIPATE:
Pick a band/artist. Pick 8-10 songs you can somehow relate to Lost.
Email me the list of songs (include performer(s) name too!) and tell me how each song relates to Lost, just as you've done in past years. When I get a "playlist", I will then post the band/artist's name here on this thread -
ONCE AN ARTIST/BAND IS ON THE LIST, you may send me a playlist for the same one, however, the first person who submitted will get the prize-drawing entry - your songs may be played with that person's picks on-air, but it doesn't get you an entry. So, your best bet is to submit playlists early and make sure to pick someone who hasn't been submitted.
HOW THE WINNERS WILL BE CHOSEN:
I will pick from the playlists and each week, depending on how many songs I can gather from each submission, I will feature at least 2 playlists, possibly up to 4. That means, there will be 2-4 winners who will have their names entered into the end-of-season prize drawing. How will I pick which playlists? Well, I tend to pick older music for Hour 1 and newer for Hour 2 - therefore, no matter what kind of music YOU listen to, you're bound to hear something you like each week. I will read through the explanations given for the songs chosen on your playlists, and from there, decide which playlist most fits LOST.
WHAT GENRES OF MUSIC CAN I SUBMIT?
I am excited to hear some new music as well as some old favorites. Rock, Classic Rock, Oldies, Country, Outlaw Country, Bluegrass, Folk, Indie, Reggae, etc etc are always welcome. If you submit something that doesn't quite fit the format of the show, I will email ya! Promise!
Explanation of genres not accepted:
Please do not submit rap, hip-hop, severely heavy metal/hardcore, bubblegum pop, or anything that could offend anyone - I must provide my own music for the show, and I don't have many of those genres available to me. If you post something that isn't going to fit the genres of the show, I probably won't consider the entry. Sorry! (if you think it might fit, please just ask - I will be kind & I've been known to "bend" the rules, at times!)
Thanks again! REMEMBER - ALL songs need to be edited for language & content. I CANNOT PLAY songs with "swear words" so PLEASE keep this in mind when you submit your suggestions. Sometimes I don't have time to listen to each and every submission, and if I play a "swear word" on the air, I can be fined lots and LOTS of money, which I don't have. So try to make sure to alert me of any songs I might need to "edit".
The show airs live, both locally (88.1FM WPTC) and on the internet (link from LostRadio), on Thursdays, 8-10pm est. If you can't listen live, check out the show's website (compliments of lovely webmistress Halfrek!) at LostRadio for recent shows and show archives that are downloadable!
All fans of LOST are welcome and encouraged to submit their entries! If you have any questions, please direct them to djkaidy@gmail.com. (ALL SUBMISSIONS, however, email to: lostradio@gmail.com)
