It doesn't work for me

When I click on PLAY there's a window appearing but most of it is missing and nothing happen. I'll try it later tough.

I'm sorry you are having trouble. Is anyone else experiencing problems? I just tested it out on another computer and it worked just fine. And I don't even have a land line. I connect and transmit
"the signal" via satellite and wi-fi. Please send me
feedback. Fun thing is..I am off the grid and I can be in the middle of the deasert with my generator fired up and still transmit sweet 'verse radio!

Shiny!

I can get it to work. Listening to it right now. It just played the exchange from 'The Train Job' where Jayne goes crazy and then falls asleep.

I have been collecting records, cds, tapes etc going on 30 years now. The Celtic/bluegrass leanings are recent due to my daughter taking up fiddle lessons last year. Then I realized I have enough stuff for ...maybe a 'verse themed radio station.

and there you go!

Thank you so much for writing! China! Wow!

I am in this for the long haul...so if I send you a pre-paid AMEX or other card I need a lot more Mandarin music and more contemporary stuff like
12 girls band. I need a buyer! Stuff I cannot possibly buy at Amazon.com other elsewhere 'cept
going to China myself. I might be adventurous
in the future....as I did in London when the first thing I did was go to TOWER RECORDS and dropped over a grand on music....instead of playing tourist.

'Told you I was into music! Keep in touch.

Thank you for your comments. I will be away for New Years starting tomorrow morning. I plan to leave "the signal" on auto-pilot until Tuesday. Not to worry..there is 34+ hours cued up from the archives.
No repeats ('cept verse clips)

See you LIVE in the new year with more great
special theme nights! Adios for now

This is a GREAT idea and what I've heard so far you are doing a fine job of it. I'm gonna lock down on this for a few days and if you keep this up, you've got me locked in.


A few months ago I was listening to echoes ( www.echoes.org) on National Public Radio - completely by accident - and they played a song that just stopped me in my tracks, it was SO FIREFLY (IMHO). At that point I said to myself Man, I wish there was lots more where that came from - and now you're giving it a good shot indeed. Keep it up.


Anyway, I strongly urge you to get this CD from the Hearts In Space label and put the song "High Desert" on your playlist - it was Perfect Firefly to me, check out the audio clip:


http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000058T8B/ref=ase_echoes/102-2036685
-2352916?s=music&v=glance&n=5174&tagActionCode=echoes


I'm tellin' ya, with twangy / spacey songs like "Clouds", "Country And Eastern", "High Desert", "Big Brain, Little Brain", "Back To The Light", "Outpost", "Arc of Flight" and most of all "Undeserved Ending", this CD is practically an honorary Firefly soundtrack. From a review on the Amazon page: "The effect of listening to the piece ("Outpost") is like quietly floating high above a calm but endless sea; utter serenity."

have left your radio playing all night while my husband and i play our various new steve jackson loot from christmas, and we are LOVING it.

since you're taking suggestions... the reaver theme of drums from the show has always reminded me of kodo, the traditional japanese drumming, which would fit with the asian tone of our 'verse. you could slap a couple of ondekoza cd's into your catalog. primal and thrilling stuff.

Just got back and read your message, which took me by surprise.

First of all, I was touched by your complete confidence in me---that's the great thing about browncoats!

Second, what you need is:

1) Someone who really knows about Chinese music

2) Someone who's canny with money--a good business person

3) Someone who's good at bargaining to get the prices down


Third, that's not me!

1) I have only dipped my toe in the vast waters of Chinese music, and my Chinese friends like romantic karaoke songs and western music, not traditional Chinese music. Most importantly, I can't read any of the Chinese labels.

2) "Business Person" is not the exact word to describe me. It's more like "Business Prat".

3) The Chinese traders in every shop and market stall love bargaining, and they are world class experts at it. So when they see me parking my bicycle to buy something, they start rubbing their hands with glee, their faces light up and they welcome me with open arms. I usually end up paying twice what the thing is worth, because I am so pathetic at bargaining, and because I don't have the heart to cut their prices down. Sometimes they even lower the price themselves because they feel sorry for the stupid foreigner---I told you they were nice people!


But I'll keep thinking about it, and let you know if I find anyone who would like to act as a buyer and won't lose all your money for you, OK?

We're all so lucky that you've been there quietly collecting that fantastic music for so many years, and now you're unwrapping it like a big Christmas present to us all---what an amazing surprise! I guess "Can't Stop The Signal" really is true!

Oh, yeah, baby, your Bruce Kaphan audio clips are full length instead of the 30 sec ones at Amazon - and therefore downloadable for immediate play on Browncoat Radio? That's the first time I've heard "Undeserved Ending", it really is a perfect blend of guitar with Oriental rifts that rises slowly and ends calmly too soon.


This album came from the Hearts of Space collection - maybe there's more where that came from? Worth checking out...


http://timelessmedia.net/hos/index.html

Check their "radio" page - this Bruce Kaphan "Sliders" album is listed under "guitar" along with lots of other potential Browncoat titles. They also have radio play lists for "Chinese" and "Celtic" space music...

Hey Mr. Universe.....

Since Joss DID feature a belly dancer in one of his episodes (she slipped Mal a note while dancing), if you want to add middle eastern music to your mix....I can help. I am a belly dance student and have put together quite a collection of middle eastern music...some of it with Oriental and Indian influences that give it a real "culture in a blender" feel that Mr. Joss seems to love so much :)

Just let me know.

P.S. That Celtic music has me hankering to do some hurling. Where is my HURLEY!!! Too bad the sliotar is too hard to see in the dark ;)

I love it. Listening to it right now.

I'm a big fan of Loreena McKennit and I noticed a song of hers on a few minutes ago.

I'm alos a big fan of violin solos and duets with guitars (haha, sounds familiar). Any artist you know using them you should throw out there.
