Title: for fucks sake - all of the techno on XM radio is dogshit
Post by: abrader on March 13, 2008, 07:04:54 PM
So I got XM Radio built into my car.

I had never listened or cared about it before.

I plan on buying a new 160 GB Ipod for my car this weekend so I have ben listening to my XM radio last few days instead of plugging in my 8 GB iphone for music.

So this is techno people listen to? Damn it sucks. weak beats - uninpsiring patterns and the cheesiest movie samples ever....earlier when i drove home there was some shitstain song on with a sample from 2010 in it "my god its full of stars" over and over and over - cheese ball city. and then the DJ is taking about this music like anyone gives a fukk about noname techno artists who all sound the same.

id rather die by having a elephant cock shoved down my throat than listen to that bullshit - all of the dance/techno channels are goofy and boring.

Now I gotta clense my ears with some hardcore and gabba

as horrible as this is, it's better than sirius's selection

but still, sirius is pretty crap

on xm there's a channel called "the move" which my friend, DJ Simon, has a show on called Redux.  it's really the only stuff I'd suggest

 :punch :punch :punch XM has the best mixshows on it - we have Transitions (John Digweed), Trance Around The World (Above and Beyond), Tiesto's Club Life (a personal favorite of mine), ASOT, Oslo Nights, and all these other random-ass shows. I'm also pretty fond of the Addiction show on BPM, lots of cool electro-house. As a dance fan, I'm really happy with XM's selection, it beats the SHIT out of terrestrial radio (NYC SUCKS when it comes to radio) and Sirius, wasn't nuts about Sirius - repetitive playlist and the only mixshows are from Jokenfold and Van Dyk. Apart from a lack of D&B, dubstep/grime, and hardcore, XM has most of the dance gamut covered, including my preferred genres of trance, prog, and commercial house.

The XM stations:
80 - The Move - plays soulful house, deep house, minimal... used to have a good D&B show on at lunchtime, and some of their mix shows are good
81 - BPM - the real commercial, cheesy, electro house station... I like this one a lot, since I usually spin commercial house
82 - The System - trance, progressive, breaks... favorite station on XM
83 - Chrome - the disco/freestyle station
84 - Chill - the downtempo station

Eric - I think I've heard your friend's show before, actually. Do you know what time it's on?

Both XM and Sirrius are still better than fucking Terrestial Radio

I have to go to the weird 88.7 spectrum just to listen to some good stuff

XM and Sirius are still in merger talks.  Their merger still hasn't be approved by the Anti-Trust Division of the Justice Department.

Isn't XM and Sirius becoming one whole company? I like XM more because its free and OPIE AND ANTHONY + RON AND FEZ are on it.
XM is free?

ok - nighttime XM radio is good (plus I may be intoxicated)

But man some of the shit i have heard when the sun is shining is embarrassing.

I like "The system" and a few of the dance channels around it.

The classical music is decent - but the MIXES ARE SO BAD - they cross styles/eras in such disgusting ways :(

I finally programmed six channels - but I forget what they are.
