Lets all keep our fingers crossed that this week's connection stays up and fast enough to keep the new uber-playlist playing.
This move has really f' up'd the regular playlist for the last 2 weeks - and all appears to be good now. The source server (not broadcast server that listeners connect to) is supposed to have a full 10 mbit, but for some reason it's only getting about 1.5 mbit - which isn't horrible and IS fast enough to run the source - however it would be nice to get what we're paying for, right?
I added in a few more sets to the uber-playlist today - and I hope to have some more up and coming talent added by the end of the week (if they get me their CD's or upload their sets to the FTP).
Anyway - we'll keep on pluggin' and keep on playin' the tunes!
BTW - be sure to leave some feedback in the feedback section of 2HP.ca. It's nice to hear listener's comments.

Ok - I just created the uber-playlist of all time. I added in about 6 new sets and loaded a bunch that I had on "retire" back into the list.
You'll notice a difference right away. Enjoy the tunes! Happy weekend!

STUPID, Stupid, stupid...
My move is finally completed - the 10 mbit source connection installed and working, 2HP.ca Radio back up to normal. Broadcast servers 100%.
All of the sudden at 3PM on Friday May 21 - source connection is lost. I figure perhaps just some routine maintenance. Turn on my back-up source (which only has like 12 hours of music which loops, as opposed to the massive 2HP.ca Radio playlist).
I get to the source site about 5PM. Connection still down. Call tech support - line must have been cut somewhere in the building. Won't be able to come out and investigate until Tuesday May 25 (due to long holiday weekend).
WHY ME?!?! As soon as I pretty much had things back to normal all hell breaks loose.
I'm going to try and find a solution today that will hopefully keep us from having to endure the same 12 hours of music repeated until Tuesday - wish me luck.

Wooo Hooo! Our connection (at our source) is back up - and seems to support the required bandwidth for 2HP.ca Radio to function as it was.
Thanks for everybody's continued listening to the station and we should have some new sets this week.

Talk about a nightmare.
My internet connection that was to be installed has been a royal mess-up.
The 10 mbit connection when first installed provided transfer speeds less than a dial-up modem. A technician has been out today and hopefully the issue has been resolved. I won't know until later this evening.
Updates to follow. Sorry for the delay in getting 2HP.ca Radio back up and running with the regular play-list and normal shows.

2HP.ca Radio is moving! That's right - our source server (and connection) is moving locations and thus our regular 2HP.ca Radio playlist will not be broadcasting from Tuesday May 11 2004 until Thursday May 13 2004.
No need to worry - RobVox and ASOT will still happen on Thursday - it just means that we won't be able to have DJ Ampz and Amplified Radio on Wednesday live as we normally do (it has been temporarily rescheduled to Friday).
While we're moving our source server - 2HP.ca Radio will still be blasting away w/ awesome trance. We'll have a backup relay source playing great trance and awesome tunes.
The original source should be back up late in the day on Thursday May 13 (and again RobVox and ASOT will still be live on Thursday).

The Filo & Peri party went off without a hitch. It was really amazing to see the months work of work finally pay off. Schryer, Mobius and 24_7 & Eso were great openers and closers and Filo & Peri blew the place up with amazing music.
There is a section of the site now that users can use to leave comments (readable by all). Comments are welcome. :)
Other than that - we're still truckin' and going to be adding a few new sets this week.
