WBPM NetRADIO

2-20-2010

WBPM NetRADIO is an Internet Radio station that broadcasts globally via the internet.

During any given day it is available to bazillions of internet connected listeners who might want variety in their music. Not all “this” or all “that” so to speak.

The station initially began broadcasting in 2004 and followed a mainly R&B and Jazz format. Later in 2004, the station began playing more Reggae and World beat music. The station developed a steady though mainly domestic (United States) internet audience. In 2005 WBPM NetRADIO began producing live shows that consisted of non-stop mixes of music from a wide variety of genres. Listeners in Australia, Germany, Slovenia and Estonia started to tune in. By this point in time the station included selections of House, Downtempo and Chill Grooves to the genres of music being streamed. The station now boasts a play list that stretches from Alpha Blondy to Zapp where all of the music is mixed so that it flows non-stop.

The station really sounds good in its commercial free format available to subscribers

Additional listeners were seen connecting from The People’s Republic of China, Russia and Brazil (The station even sported a Portuguese language web site for a while!)

I have added a language translator to the blog for those international music lovers who don’t read english. It looks pretty cool too!

As the station began to mature additional international listeners tuned in.

I am always amazed at the reach of this station.  Especially considering I can’t even hum in 99% of the languages of the countries listed. I guess that bit about music being universal is pretty dead on huh?

Just a note of news… was checking the ratings and I am proud to report that as of November of 2009 WBPM NetRADIO has attained the rank of #2 of 12 stations in the Garage Music Genre, #21 of 163 stations playing House music and 59th of all 250 stations streaming R&B Music. According to today’s stats WBPM NetRADIO remains in the #1 spot. (Yaaaaaaaayyyy!!!!)

Just a note: The numbers of artists submitting music has been really cool. Its been great to see the level of interest in the station. I’ve been getting a lot of questions about where to submit music lately. And, I really appreciate the response. I just want to clear up something. For those looking to send tracks, please read the “Submit Tracks” page. The link to it is at the top of this page. When you send tracks I need info about the artist to arrive with the track. Otherwise I won’t be sure who did what music. Please do not send your music via email. You run the risk of ite being blocked by a relay server or router along the way. Please send your music on CD and please do not mail CDs that have no Press Kits/Artist information included (how can we spread the word to people about you if you don’t?).

Thanks for all of the notes of encouragement!!

YES!! Live Shows will be returning soon. Things have been “busy” so to speak!! Working on some new shows including some spoken word format sets and even music talk.
