       | interesting. I have had a nectarine demoscene radio sticker on my
       | last fridge. Didn't know there is so much more. Thanks!

       | the evenings.

       | One of the unique (I think) features we have allows listeners to
       | influence what plays next on the radio.
       | 
       | While the current song is playing, we run a three-candidate
       | election to choose the next song. We usually include a listener
       | request as one of the three candidates in the election.
       | 
       | We're a friendly community, in my obviously biased opinion. Feel
       | free to hang out with us on Discord; the link is on the Rainwave
       | homepage.

         | there were queue limits on users though

         | Could you please clarify the statement "An internet radio
         | program written in the Hy language + Flask."? Is this a
         | streaming radio player program? I might add it to my "Desktop
         | Streaming Radio Players" list at https://mw.rat.bz/players/ .
         | Is it mostly a Linux application?
         | 
         | Thanks.

           | underneath, and its function is to help you store your
           | favorite stations to a database (sqlite) for easy
           | rememberability. Note that you have to open the files in a
           | text editor to extract the correct links (unless the correct
           | link is given already).

       | I'm really fascinated by the demoscene, but clicking on those
       | links only gives me music which seems completely devoid of
       | humans. And, I suppose I'm really interested in the demoscene
       | because I really want to know the humans behind it.
       | 
       | My current favorite radio stations are things like KMHD jazz in
       | Portland, OR, or BBC with Gilles Peterson. Great music, but they
       | always provide such fascinating context to the people behind the
       | music.
       | 
       | How do I get to know the people making demoscene art? Is there a
       | radio station where someone can introduce me to that? Or, is this
       | the wrong way to think about the demoscene?
