We have many exciting things to tell you about in this issue of the Gamers Radio Newsletter from how to win a free copy of Battlefield 2 to our latest music partnerships with Warner Bros Records. Let’s jump right in. Continue reading April Newsletter Is Out! →

The nominees list is out and Gamers Radio is up for two categories in Live365s 2005 Broadcasters Awards. Be sure and vote for us under Metal and Hard Rock and Best New Station (< 1 year old)

Spread the word!!!!!! Tell everyone you know to vote for us!!!!!!

Let me be the first to welcome you to the new and improved Gamers Radio website. I am sure the new Green design may catch you off guard at first, but give it time and I know it will grow on you. We have worked hard to bring you an interesting theme, while doing everything we can to speed up the load time of the site. I think you will agree the new theme runs much smoother.

Be sure and drop by our Forums as they are completely redesigned to match the new theme. Keep your eye out for our easter egg, hidden somewhere in the forums. For you Firefox users, you will notice the Forums Block on the left now scrolls just like it has always done with IE. Keep it here for more interesting additions including a new Interviews module and Flash Enabled Games. For those of you that complained about the site logging you out, that should now be fixed as well.

Of course, I could not have done this without the help of Raze. I owe him all the credit for the great artwork and new design. Without him, none of this would be here. Thanks Raze!

Once in a while, we get unsolicited requests to play songs from Indie Artists. We are always on the look out for great music and have no problem listening to what you have to offer. Unfortunately, not all bands fit into our mix of music and not all bands are equal.

This was not the case when SG of Illuminati sent us a request to check out their song, Machines. All I can say is this song kicks ass and fits right into our line up. So, listen for them on the Gamers Radio Stream, drop by their website http://www.illuminatimusic.com and check them out. If the rest of their music is this good, you can expect to hear even more Illuminati on our station…….

We are always looking for new bands to add to the radio station, be it signed or unsigned. We went through several hundred songs and came up with a list of what we think are some interesting sounding indie artists. We hope you like them. As always, use the Live365 browser thumbs up and thumbs down to tell us what you think of these songs. If you dont like it, we wont keep playing it. If you do like them, make sure you give it a thumbs up!

I added a bunch of new stuff to the radio station including 4 new songs from Slipknots new album Vol 3 (Subliminal Verses) and a few songs from Shinedown, including the acoustic version of Simple Man. Speaking of Simple Man; us early buyers of Shinedowns album Leave A Whisper didnt get it. Matter of fact, we didnt get 3 songs that have been added to the album. Oh well. If you are interested in the new song, Simple Man, check out this great story on Country Music Televisions website, of all places. Another new band I added to the playlist is Future Leaders Of The World. Signed by Puddle of Mudds Label, they look like an interesting band. Get more info on their official website, FutureLeadersoftheWorld.com. Keep it here for more goodness coming to the station soon.

Thats right folks! The Deathmatch of Internet Radio Returns!

After going radioless for the last 2 years, we have finally brought music back to Gamers Radio. The best part is we are now broadcasting in mp3PRO Stereo quality. If you havent heard mp3PRO, then you are going to be very suprised how clean it sounds.

Just to wet your whistle, here is a snapshot of what we are currently rotating on the station:

A Perfect Circle
Tool
Lollipop Lust Kill
Finger Eleven
Sevendust
Slipknot
Probot
Korn
Marilyn Manson
Mushroomhead
Rage Against The Machine
Rammstein
Foo Fighters
Crossbreed

If you like those bands, then you will love our new station!

When I originally started out with the idea for this website, the name was going to be gamersradio.com. Both .com and .net were available, but I was too lazy to buy them. When I finally decided to do it, someone else had already registered both name. For two years I watched as the names set there doing absolutely nothing.


Then four months after the names expired, the domains were released back to the public. You better believe I snatched these puppies up as fast as I could.


The end result is Gamers Radio Network is reborn as it was always intended to be, Gamers Radio….. For the record, gamersradio.com, gamersradio.net, gamers-radio.com, gamers-radio.net, gamersradionetwork.com, gamersradionetwork.net and gamersradionetwork.org are all owned by me. One of these days, I will set up all of them to point here. For now, update your bookmarks to use www.gamersradio.com and drop by from time to time. Without you, this site would be worthless…..



In the immortal words of my friend Erthdawg, PEACE!



Atomm

Whatsup people……we thank everyone for putting up Lotic on the station. We will put a link up soon on our site. Thanks for supporting local music!!!!!

Here is the complete list:

Bruhilda

Cyphre

Knucklewhite

Little Kingz (They may be little people, but their music is Large!)

Lock-N-Load

The Final Step



I usually play two songs an hour from unsigned artists. Open your mind and check out the radio station. This is not the same old boring stuff you hear on other stations. Be the first on your block to say, “Hey, I know those Guys!”

As you may know, the station is back on the air. During the time we were offline, we worked hard to get as much music as possible for our return. You can check out the complete playlist over on the left side of our site.



Just to highlight a few additions, We have the new albums from the following:

Creed

Drowning Pool

System of a Down

The Cult



Along with new music from a couple of unsigned Local Artists from the Midwest:

Huver (The Nixons with a new lead singer)

I should have a few more big name acts added shortly, as well as a few more Independent Artists who just emailed me links to their songs. As always, put your requests in through the playlist.



Until next time, ROCK ON!
