I'm not really anti-AI, just anti-zero effort homogenisation
might be time for a week by week re-listen
we just passed the tenth anniversary of the greatest podcast episode of all time @hollywoodsteve.bsky.social @jdryznar.bsky.social
New Yacht or Nyacht podcast, just like every Tuesday. Retweet this so folks have a chance to learn about what is and is not yacht rock. Let’s make the world a smoother place. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...
I swear if the facebook groups and shitty radio stations don't kill smooth music, the AI art will
It's like Campbell's Hero's Journey. I feel we have all grown as people as a result of that exchange.
Hey, thanks for listening!
This man knows how to ride
Oh brother ... I can't even begin to tell you 😭
thatnks for the heads up man. Seems alright now. That'll happen when the internet craps out on my end. ⛵
ICYMI: A lazy hour of yacht rock classics from the wax, plus we accidently slip into some vice rock territory in the second hour. www.mixcloud.com/RadioPVS/nor...
For any chart nerds out there, this guy has compiled a bunch of 80'-90's Australian top 50 vids from rage. I forgot how much forgettable shit was out back then. www.youtube.com/@ragetop50/f...
Straying from the yachtski scale this week with a bunch of Italo Disco and library tunes from Four Flies Vaults, heaters from Rapallo and Psychic Mirrors plus the usual shenanigans.

Update: They have just made the standard version of PlayoutONE free forever! (Note, I'm not sponsored or anything, it's just been good software for my use case)
In Koko's name 🙏
Awesome to hear! Thanks for the kind words 🫡
Appreciate you! Thanks for the support man 🫡
THANK YOU to everyone who has tuned in, sent me lovely messages, recorded bumpers for us, suggested tunes, told their mates, upvoted the reddit posts, and shared stuff on social media (i'm terrible at that lol).
LOVE YOUSE ALL!

I love that stat because i'm not out here trying to be the BIGGEST thing in the world, I just want it to be the BEST it can be. I'd rather a small base of dedicated listeners than a large base of indifferent listeners. TSL over cume and engagement over clicks, any day.
The weekly listener count was surprisingly steady over the 6 months but the cumulative listening hours has steadily gone up, which indicates that we're not necessarily getting MORE listeners, but the listeners we have are listening for LONGER.
The most dedicated listeners were from the US, Australia, Germany, Canada and the Philippines.
The biggest platform for listening was the Radio Garden app. A large percentage of people were listening from their computers, and shout out to my Winamp users 🦙.
We started with around 550 songs in rotation and have increased that to around 770. We've got an hourly yacht rock facts segment, we ensure at least one Essential song is played per hour, drop educational bumpers and highlight the Doobie Bounce catalogue (thanks The Craptain!).
