This is pretty cool: have you heard of Slacker Radio? It’s a free online radio station. Well, for the Halloween season, the DJ’s set up a station dedicated to great music that you might get you in the mood for trick or treating. Right now I have “Don’t Fear The Reaper” up and running. The Halloween station is an eclectic mix of over 120 artists including Bo Diddley, Black Sabbath, MIA, The Specials, Neil Young and Whodini.
You can click on the picture above to go to the Halloween Station. If you haven’t heard of Slacker before, here is some info about it:
Slacker (http://www.slacker.com) is an interactive Internet radio service allowing users to create their own customized music stations starting with either Slacker’s preset stations or their own custom built stations. Slacker offers many traditional genre, specialty, and artist stations pre-programmed by professional DJs while also letting users build entire stations of specific artists. Users can continue to evolve any of these stations by rating favorite songs and banning artists or songs. Stations can also be fine tuned to play older or newer music, more hits or more eclectic music.
On September 16th, 2008 Slacker released a new portable player called “Slacker G2,” the next generation of the world’s only completely portable Personal Radio player. Slacker’s patent-pending radio delivery network automatically downloads and continuously refreshes thousands of personally selected songs on each device, and turns them into personalized radio stations; all for free. Because the players don’t have to be connected to Wi-Fi to play, Slacker G2 owners can listen to CD quality, personalized radio wherever they go.
