I've been re-exploring the CBC Radio 3 Website lately, if not in part because they've totally relaunched the site!
There's good and bad, of course. Mostly good, but on the bad side, my embedded Radio3 players I had on my Blogger and Facebook no longer work... they're just big empty holes! Boo! (I've already sent e-mails to website managers and will solve this problem ASAP!)
But then there's the good...
I'm finally allowed to upload pictures to a new customizable user profile (And so can YOU)! And I LOVE that you can finally create multiple playlists. It's a really huge development, and it means that I can finally have "mood specific" playlists of sorts. (Granted, I've only got 2 lists so far, but I think there may be more soon enough!)Now, I've been a fan of Radio 3 for quite some time now. In fact, almost all I listen to on my portable music player (ie, my phone) is CBC stuff. (The exception is the BBC Global News podcast which I listen to almost daily!)
I try never to miss the Track of the Day, and I always catch up on them all when I do. I've become a huge fan of (fictional?) Richard "Sunshine Dick" Johnson, host of The Sunshine Show. And I wholeheartedly enjoy keeping up to date with the R3-30, Radio 3's countdown show of each week's top 30 songs.
There are, of course, many more podcasts and shows on Radio 3, but I think you get the idea.In any case, why don't you check out my current "Playlist of the Moment"... who knows, maybe you'll hear something you like!
Oh, and here's a little music shout-out. These ones have been totally stuck in my head for days, (in some cases MONTHS!)
Artist - Song TitleDan Mangan - Robots
Dan Mangan - Sold
Arcade Fire - Wake Up
Greg Macpherson - Bankrobber (yes, a cover of a Clash song)
Hannah Georgas - The Beat Stuff
The Waking Eyes - Wolves at the Door
oh, and this new one!
John K. Samson just released a new track called "Heart of the Continent"
Unfortunately, I cannot find a link for it. Yet.
Cheers,
