The Obama Album 2012

The Obama Album 2012
21st February 2012

Every four years, the U.S. holds a presidential election, and every four years, musicians ask Republican candidates to stop playing their songs at rallies. This year, so far, Newt Gingrich has been asked by Survivor to stop playing “Eye of the Tiger” and Somali-born musician K’naan has asked Mitt Romney to stop playing “Wavin’ Flag.” In 2011, Tom Petty had Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., stop playing “American Girl.”

In past campaigns, David Byrne had Gov. Charlie Crist stop using “Road to Nowhere” in his attacks on Marco Rubio, Jackson Browne had Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., and the Ohio Republican Party stop using “Running on Empty” to attack then-Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill.  The singers from Heart stopped then-Gov. Sarah Palin from using “Barracuda.” In 2000, Sting asked George W. Bush to stop playing “Brand New Day.”

The good news for Democrats is that they usually don’t have such problems, since so many entertainment industry figures are Democrats. (Don’t Stop Thinkin’ About Tomorrow, anyone?) President Obama’s re-election campaign even has an official soundtrack, it was announced today, to be featured at campaign events across the country in the months ahead. An Obama aide said the tunes would energize the crowd before a presidential appearance and keep everyone excited while Obama works ropelines and mingles with fans after delivering remarks.

So in the 2012 election year, "The Obama Album" is now official. Below are the songs on it.

Using Twitter For Your KryKey Web Radio Station

Using Twitter For Your KryKey Web Radio Station

The power of Twitter for your KryKey Web Radio Station is today's subject. Does it work? How do I use it? are the two most common questions we get at KryKey Web Radio from our radio station owners.

First of all it does work if used correctly, and by correctly we mean adding the correct 'search terms' to each Tweet and of course not using it so much as to spam people. So here are some of our helpful suggestions to help you use Twitter and get more people to listen to your radio station.

• when you add your 'Tweet' you should also add 'search terms' that will make it easier for people to read you Tweet. For example if you go to Twitter and in the search box put in #webradio what will be displayed is all the Tweets from everyone that has added that 'search term'. So if you have a Hip-Hop radio station you should always add #hiphop to your Tweet. If you are in New York how about adding #NewYork. Here are some of the 'search terms' we suggest you should add - #webradio #internetradio #music #nowplaying - optional 'search terms' are your location (i.e. #newyork for example), genre (i.e #hiphop #r&b #top40)

Of course you only have 140 characters to add all this, your radio station name, your radio station link and your message. 

 

When you add your radio station link remove the http:// and that will save you 7 characters - you can also use the service from Tiny URL which helps you shorten the address to a smaller number of characters (example this address http://www.krykey.com/Radio/PRSPage.aspx?id=126 which is 45 characters can be shortened to http://tinyurl.com/nf6n5t which is only 25 characters, a saving of 20!).

 

You will soon see people starting to 'follow' you, and dont forget if it is relevent you should 'follow' them back.

 

To 'follow' KryKey Web Radio you can find us at http://Twitter.com/krykey

 

We hope this has helped you. If you find Twitter has helped you, then leave a comment here to tell others reading this how it has.

Machette is now on KryKey Personal Web Radio

MACHETTE The Cleaner
AGE: 33
PLACE OF ORIGIN: QUEENS, NEW YORK OCCUPATION: HIP-HOP ARTIST, CEO, HERO

HISTORY: Machette was raised in the South Jamaica Queens zone in NY. He lived the average life of a Queens kid till he turned 15. It is said that this is when he realized something was wrong ....with everything! It was that feeling tt "something wasn't right" that compelled him to search for the truth. It was this period in his life that he realized who he was and what his purpose on earth was. Machette's logic was "whatever is going on is not natural, so that means someone is doing this". That realizaton plus his love for hip hop gave birth to the voice we now hear coming through tohusands of speakers around the globe. His childhood took place in the 80's so He feels that he and Hip Hop "grew up together" but he was a listener, a fan at first. Until one da He said to himself " heyyyy, I can write something better than that!" And he's been "writing something better than that ever since"!. It was around this time in his life also that he and his best friend known as Q, decided that the only difference between them and the heroes in comic books was MONEY! So they started a group they called the Assassinz Guild. They chose to use numbers as names so MACHETTE chose to be #2 and Q took on the #1. Then, It was over....MACHETTE HAD A CREW NOW! From that pont he went from school yard to school yard, lunch tables to staircases to stages you name it, he went on a battle rampage. This is one of the more interesting FACTS about MACHETTE, to this day he hasn't lost a battle yet! He told us he could offer $1000 to the person that saw him lose a battle and the money wouldn't move!

But then around the age of 26, he moved to Raleigh North Carolina where he met a man named JOHN J. MITCHELL III. One day riding around in the truck MACHETTE decides to throw in a tape (yes, cassette tape) of an album he was working on. Of course it was gritty and on a tape the sound quality was to laugh at but John noticed that this brother had some damn skills! In the blink of an eye, John became MACHETTE's manager and during a Saturday lunch MACHETTE was doodling on a napkin and it came to him... "Assassin Records!". He said it again to himself "Asaassin Records!". John heard him and said "you wanna do it?", MACHETTE replied "i don't give a f**k, I'm not scared! let's do it!". Then months later they were in and out of studios working on MACHETTE's first Album ever which he called "STRATEGO", based on a war board game.

Assassin recordz flopped due to multiple reasons, then he turned to the streetz "hardbody" as some would say. He sold everything but furniture and the idea hit him to just cut out ALL of the middle men in the industry and just go outside and sell cds!

That was the birth of his pride and joy project ""BLACKMARKET MUZIC". The concept is that an artist always has and always will have the right to sell something he creates without any interference. MUSIC BEING NO EXCEPTION!

So now MACHETTE is leading a revolution where the Artists regain control of the arts! NOW HE'S ON THE AIR, IT'S CALLED WCUT RADIO.... BEWARE!

Check out Machette's music on www.KryKey.com and if your an Artist or Band, create your own Personal Web Radio Station at KryKey Personal Web Radio and promote your music.

Internet Car Radio

Radio is a technology that since the advent of television, has had to compete in people’s homes as the medium of choice. The advantages of radio over television is that it requires not as much attention from the listener. That is not to say that radio is a less-engaging medium. Even in today’s world of interactive television phoneins, radio still has a much better audience participation, allowing listeners to directly feed into the broadcasts. Radio is popular when people are multitasking, for example on the factory floor. By far the most popular use of radio today is when people are on the road. Car radio is a massive market and our roads are full of radio listeners. Hop into your car and tuning in to radio is as much a priority as putting the keys in the ignition. New developers have seized the opportunity to take control of the car radio market share and reinvent the way we listen. New technologies are fresh on the market allowing car radio users to tune into the World Wide Web for internet radio broadcasts. The diversity of choice is incredible and there are no broadcast limits to internet radio ranges. The motorways will be full of people tapping into stations from across the world. It is an exciting time for car radio listeners.

The first company to introduce the new technology was Blaupunkt. Driven by Miroamer roaming software, Blaupunkt internet radio sytems allow the permanent installation of a web car radio, eliminating the need for fiddly plug and play systems that may have previously existed. A car user wants to just hop in and drive off, not spend ages configuring his wireless laptop or Bluetooth, in order to tunein to radio. The product showcased at the recent Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. In addition to allowing the user to tunein to the 10s of 1000s of internet radio stations currently available, the technology presents users with the facility to still also use FM and AM transmissions. The Miroamer technology involved accesses the internet via standing mobile internet connections. It is initially available to consumers on a monthly subscription basis at a price of around $30-$40 a month. Obviously there may be some problems with the access to mobile connections as the signal isn’t constant but as time progresses the growth of mobile internet should ensure a constant signal, in a similar vein to the development of mobile phone signals.

Other companies are clambering aboard and perhaps the most exciting announcement has come from massive American car manufacturer, Chrysler, who say that internet radio facilities will be factory installed as standard in all their 2009 models. Other notable audio companies getting involved include high quality Swedish manufacturers Bang & Olafsen. The price of radios themselves are entering the market in direct competition with standard terrestrial car radios, from $150. In addition to standalone car web radio players, the domestic market is also seeing the emergence of new internet home entertainment systems. As the internet radio breaks free from the PC, there will be a massive rise in listeners of web radio. There will be a need for high quality broadcasts to compete for the new consumers’ attention. We hope that at KryKey we can provide you with the broadcast capability necessary to enter the web radio world. We endeavour to join you on the global highways and country roads as communication routes converge and the information super highway becomes part of the road travel network.
