Wild’ radio ready for second album

Gayton based online radio station Radio Gets Wild is going from strength to strength, attracting up to two million visitors a month. The interactive community station features DJs and music from independent and unsigned musicians from around the world and gives aspiring musicians of all genres the chance to showcase their talents.

It is preparing to launch its second compilation album – around the world in 60 minutes Volume 2 – in spring 2008, following the success this year of the first volume which featured Lynn ska band REBELATION.

RGW last year signed a digital distribution deal with World Domination Records to bring out at least two albums a year for the next three years to promote up-and-coming groups – and local bands are always welcome to get involved.

The station is looking for West Norfolk artists to place their music videos on the website’s newly-opened video portal, which can accept ten different formats of video including You Tube, Myspace and Google.

A classified shop for bands to sell their music and products has also been set up, where groups they can place their own “buy now” links. The presentation is left entirely to the member and they can embed video, pictures and sound.

The station is currently getting in on the phenomenal worldwide popularity of networking websites, such as Facebook. Station founder Tim Daymond explained: “Radio Gets Wild is pushing the boundaries wide open with a multi-webcam conferencing chat room with new partners Stickam letting members make new friends face-to-face.

“This is giving local people the chance to make new friends who are way out in the sticks miles from anywhere.” RGW has been going from strength to strength since its launch in 1999 and is always looking to expand, with volunteer positions available in editing, programming and sales.
