I'm going to miss the Weekly Album Stream this week, (family, blah blah blah), but remembered you were going to set up the rating for last week's album today. Give "Sounds of Silence" an 8/10 for me. I have judged the album, and that judgment must be recognized :D.

>>53648
Tell your family that you have more important things to do.

I wish. I've been trying to ditch this family for years, but somehow they got my phone number :D.

Some more music to follow up. Blues Rock by Red Dirt from the year 1970 and hailing from the UK, then the album II (Sludge/Doom/Noise) of Eisenvater and then some Raggae and Dub.

I will stream the album "She" by Dalbello at around 17:15GMT, since we just had a small discussion about female singers. I know it from my mom, and it seems to be not very widely known given the views on the tubes. Stream will only be 45 minutes or so and will end at 18:00 to make room for Prostmusik - if there will be any.

Todays winner is "Cameo - Word Up".

In the pre-stream we will listen to an album we had in the Stream a few month ago: "The White Mandingos - The Ghetto Is Tryna Kill Me" and then some random stuff from the playlist.

Like always the main stream starts at 18:00 Germany time, which is in around 1,5 hours from now. Pre-stream in around 15 minutes.

>>55069
MURS is dope but when I didn't listen to him in a while I realized he has some weird views on women sometimes when rediscovering him. Actually kinda more weird than straight sexist gangsta stuff about hoes and golddiggers to me.

Gonna announce my first stream here too.
Monday at about 22:00 CET I will stream some classic music. Beethoven, Mozart, Brahms, you name it for 2-3 hours.
Pour a glass of whisky and enjoy some comfy music.

I just implemented a new method for Discord notification of new streams. Since the current Bot sucks balls I implemented a webhook which is called from the existing statistics module when a new stream goes live. Since the stats module is called every 5 mins the maximum notification delay should be 5 mins now - if it works. Guess we'll find out during the next stream. I leave the old bot online until I'm convinced that the new mechanism is better than the current one :DD

Feed creation itself remains unchanged, so if you have an external reader for the radio feed then you don't need to change anything.

Cute, fast and reliable, that is BOT Erna, the newest member of the Ernstiwan family. The old lazy BOT was immediatly kicked of course. He was revealed as capitalist parasite and probably cabbage spy as well!!1

I have two questions concerning the radio:

• The calendar on the radio page is almost not used. I'd like to remove it from the page, since in it's current state it only adds confusion.

• I have been asked several times about the implementation of countryballs for the current radio listeners. I'm not sure if I can do it, but for now let's assume that it's possible: I worry that especially international listeners might be identifiable via their countryball, because from some countries there are very few potential listeners. Also it might lead to the technical requirement of caching (and thus storing) IP data, because all geolocation services I saw have a transaction limit per month. But we just went considerable lenghts to not do that for privacy issues, for example while implementing the album rating module.

I'd like to hear your opinions about these things.

>>55295
I have no strong feelings one way or another about the calender, since most streams are either spontaneous or announced in this thread. If you decide to axe it, just be sure the next OP continues to pimp the Weekly Album stream :D.

Re: adding countryballs, I share your concern about identifying some /int/ listeners. Not that it's necessarily a bad thing to be identified as a listener, but I wouldn't want it to become a spotlight on someone who wanted to drop into a stream. Caching IP's, though, would certainly kick up a storm. Let's not even start that discussion again. So, unless there is a compelling reason to add the balls, I'd avoid it.

>>55297

>just be sure the next OP continues to pimp the Weekly Album stream :D.

That should be mandatory for every radio related post on EC anyway.
It's a shame that lazy shit shows like the Kosmonauten get more listeners...

FYI: Most people don't seem to have strong opinions about those topics, and the voiced opinions go roughly in the same direction. So I removed the calendar from the radio page, and we will not go for a countryballs-style display of the current radio listeners, since listener privacy outranks fanciness. Good for me, less work to do :D

>>55472
B..but muh balls?

Radio Ernstiwan now officially confirmend for ball-less eunuch radio :DD

We start at 18:00 Germany time. Feel free to join the chat and the pre stream.

I implemented an alpha version of our latest radio gimmick: A history of the last played songs. It works like this: Since we had a cronjob running for the statistics module anyway this cronjob now also checks for the current artist/title. If the entry has changed for the currently analyzed stream the info will be written to database including a timestamp and the associated stream.

Of course the client has to provide these information. Also: The cronjob now runs every 2 minutes instead every 5 minutes like before. That means that measurements of listener numbers will be more frequent. Pitfall: Songs which are shorter than 2 minutes and are played in the interval between two cron runs will be left out. It would be possible to poll the info more often, but I don't want to generate too much data.

I'll put some lipstick on the display soon, for example I plan to show the streamer name instead of the useless stream number. Don't know how long the data should be stored, I don't think there's a need to keep it for a long period of time. The display is limited to 100 entries for now, but that's completely arbitrary, let's see if it's sensible. The red part in the image is old data which I generated manually while testing, so it's not representative. The green stuff and everything which will come after is the real deal.

Streaming my Discover Weekly Playlist from Spoty.

Some of the Radio-involved folks already know, but I wanted to issue an official statement before rumours spread: Radio Ernstiwan was asked if we are available to help out as a second stream for the upcoming cabbage radio stream festival, since one of their two radios died recently, and they would like to have two parallel streams. We agreed and asked them not to play any nazi music on our radio, since it's Ernst here, and nazi music was (as far as I know) the reason RfK pulled the plug in first place, and one dead radio is plenty. They were OK with it, so we're good to go.

For us this is a good opportunity to listen to some new streamers, and I'm glad to help out anyway, since quality and effort should be supported, and we radio people should stand together in times of need. So don't be surprised if there are some test streams by new streamers in the next days/weeks. I don't have any details about the date, schedule or streamers yet, I'll let you know as soon as I know the details.

Now I know that there are a few guys on /int/ who get rabies by the mere mention of the cabbage. If you consider yourself a strict no-cabbage hardliner: The majority of their radio people are already known to us through various ties our own streamers (a lot of them have RfK-history) have kept alive, and I also know some of their guys through their work, and we all strongly agreed that those guys are decent folks and that we want to help out. So please give their radio guys a chance, for they aren't to blame for the problems of their chan, and they also have some very skilled streamers available!

Long live radio ernstiwan.

Fyi the sheer hatred for them here is ultimately secondarily to them being effectively a satellite of 4krebs, and primarily to do them being pedophiles

No thanks

FYI: I just enabled the radio HTML inline player for mp3-based streams. Until now that was only available for ogg vorbis-streams, but I noticed that this can be changed with a small change in the Icecast presentation logic. The reason why Icecast initially doesn't allow this is that mp3 isn't officially supported. For now I can say that it works fine with Chrome, no idea about other browsers, so please report any issues you find with mp3 streams. You can see if a stream is mp3 by looking at the red marked box in the screenshot, which shoud either say audio/mpeg (mp3) or application/ogg (ogg vorbis).

I dunno, I was on an Andre 3000 vibe lately, and I mostly stream whatever I'm listening to at the moment.
Also, it's not going to be voted anyway so no damage done.

apparently the weekly album guy owns the copyright to every album on his list, and nobody's allowed to play any of it unless they want to incur his righteous wrath.
I don't have any money to pay him the licensing fees, so I guess I'll just wrap up.

Meanwhile, the radio admin is sending all his evidence to the cyber police.

Public service announcement: Radio was offline from about 15:20 to 16:10GMT due to an unsual high amount of connections from a single IP address. Not sure if malfunctioning client or some kind of DoS attack. For now the IP in question is blocked for incoming connections on operating system level. If anybody notices he can't reach the radio any longer then please notify me. FYI: The blocked IP starts with 45.152.

>Meanwhile, the radio admin is sending all his evidence to the cyber police.

They told me it's hopeless and I should just try and find some scapegoat, so I blame the cabbage for DoS-sing us :DD

>>57067
shit, I am so sorry.
I wanted to record the weekly album pre-stream, coz I couldn't attend
but instead of using a program like a normal person, I decided to turn it into programming practice, and write a small script that connects to radio and writes the stram to disk

problem is, there's a terrible bug where instead of checking for an open stream every now and then to reconnect, it just keeps opening new connections without cleaning up the old ones

again, my deepest apologies, I didn't meant to ddos the radio

>>57078
Don't worry mate, no harm done, good to know what the reason was and that it is unlikely to repeat. And it was a good training exercise, now I finally know how to use iptables. I just removed the blocking rule.

Besides, we already decided to blame the evil cabbage imperialists, so we need to cover up the real reason anyway :DD

>>57109

Did you know that there's only one aussie on this whole board, and he doesn't even post much any more, as well as not participating in the radio? I know because we're constantly in contact, and have known each other since before EC/int/ was made to accommodate Krautchan refugees after it was taken down.

Ok, I do not want to make any direct accusations, but I will share my suspicions.
I think you are sorta accusing me of DDOSing the radio stream because I was "butthurt" at someone from the radio group for being a bit passive aggressive (or at least it came off that way). Yeah, I was being a bit of a dick, but I apologized because I wanted to be the bigger man.
But now you're here escalating the situation again, and doing so from behind a proxy.

Not cool.

>>57111

>But now you're here escalating the situation again, and doing so from behind a proxy.

Don't think it's him. While your posts don't reveal your location, the stream which started that back and forth was made with your radio account- which does. Given that info, it follows that he already knows where you're from and wouldn't come back later to ask.
Conclusion: Different guy.

Also, we do have another aussie who passes through now and then. Likes to travel, moves around a lot. Think he was in New Zealand at one point.

>>57117
Didn't say it was him, might be someone else affiliated with the radio.

Also, feigning ignorance is a thing, especially when larping from behind a proxy lol.

Gonna jump in and stream St. Germain - Tourist

Reminder that this weekend will be the cabbage stream festival, where we help them out with Radio Ernstiwan because RfK recently died. As far as I know there will be streams from saturday/sunday from about 14:00UTC until well into the night.

Since the radio is going to be a bit more busy as usual today, i'm going to announce todays Weekly Album Stream a bit earlier:

Todays winner is "Millencolin - Pennybridge Pioneers".
Some nice, casual Pop-Punk.

New to the poll:
Radiohead - The Bends

Next weeks poll:
https://poll.fm/10895075

We start at 18:00CET as always. Pre-Stream starts around 1 hour earlier.

Another year has passed, and our little family radio is steadily growing up: On September the 3rd Radio Ernstiwan will turn 2 years old. Obviously, this calls for a celebration in form of a streaming festival. Since September 3rd is a friday, we can choose whether we want to start on Friday or if we want to stream on saturday/sinday like the last time (see pic 2). I suggest we collect the possible contributions along with their preferred timeslot, and then we see how a possible schedule could look like, and how many hours we can fill.

Like last year I'll make a show somewhere around the beginning of the festival with a review of the past year, some random autism and music I stole from better streamers. For your planned contributions: You don't need to specify exactly when you want to do, for now it's enough to give a rough description about when and how long you'd like to stream, and if you need to change it afterwards we will find a way, so don't worry. I'll take care of the schedule.

I also count on /int/ to make a better promo picture than the shit I poorly slapped together in pic 1 earlier this day.

>>58004
Don't know what to stream, but count me in for an early(here)timeslot of 1-2 hours on one of the days. ~1200UTC give or take.

>>58004
I might do a stream on saturday.
How about an album at around 18:00CET?

>>58119
>>58135
Thanks for the contributions. Based on the current announced streams I created a alpha version of the schedule. I suggest taking Prostmusik and the Weekly Stream as fixtures, because it's their regular time anyways, and then build the rest of the schedule around those two. For now I didn't include sunday, but this of course might change if there will be more announcements. As already mentioned: It's not necessary to specity the details of your stream, I only need a rough idea about when and how long people are willing to participate. The schedule is likely to change a few times anyways, so don't worry.

In the pre-stream we're going to listen to some Death Grips to warm us up. Afterwards we're having some good ol' Clown Core.

>>58162
Clown Core soon

Update for the festival schedule: Kosmonauten have been confirmed - somewhat, so sunday became a realistic option. I'd say we need at least two more streams (better 3 or more) to make sunday happen. I'd provide an optional stream in that case with some songs made by Ernst on /b/ (mostly in german though). If there are no more stream announcements we should pack everything into friday and saturday, though that would mean that we're already pretty stuffed.

So let's hear those announcements, guys! We need MOAR!

Update: Sunday looking even more feasible now!

>Prince - Let's Go Crazy on stream

I fucking love this song!

>Let's Go Crazy Live

Thanks man!

Big update for the schedule, 2 new streams have been confirmed, sunday is safe now! Also nice to see that 3 of the streamers from the cabbage festival are participating, new streamers with new inputs are always a great thing! There's space for 1-2 additional streams. If we get more than that we'd have to juggle a little, but it wouldn't be a problem since some streamers had announced flexible runtimes just in case, so there will be space for everyone!

The green streams are more or less fixed, while the yellow ones might be moved around, the schedule is basically only a visualization how things COULD be. If anyone wishes to change his current spot just let me know. Also there is a disturbing lack of stoner doom streams, I blame the rectangular one for this!

Another update: Brick announced a stream, so the gap on saturday is filled. Also the Bernd67-stream has been moved from sunday to saturday night. Schedule looks solid now, but there is still space for a 2 hour-stream on friday and sunday each, because the streamers there already said that they would shorten their streams in case there are more applicants. Priority is to find a spot for everyone, so keep 'em coming!

Here the current schedule (beware, all times UTC+2), not many changes since the last time. On sunday I moved everything on hour in the evening, because it makes more sense to start a little later I think. The schedule can stay this way if there are no more announcements, but if there are there are 3 sports that can easily be freed (again, all times UTC+2):

1. friday 19:00-21:00, in this case I#ll shorten mine to 1h (please let it happen :DD) and chvk starts an hour later
2. friday after midnight, in this case chvk offered that he can shorten his stream
3. sunday afternoon/evening, in this case we'd ask the current spotholders are willing to move their streams back in time if necessary

I don't really want to schedule anything past midnight on sunday (monday morning) because I fear that after 3 days of radio people might be getting tired of it. Of course if anyone wants to continue he can still do that.

Todays winner is "Dead Kennedys - Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables"

New to the poll:

Audioslave - Out Of Exile
Melvins - The Maggot
Gang Starr - Moment of Truth
King Crimson - Red

Next weeks poll: https://poll.fm/10908170

Like always we start at 18:00 CET.

Here the final schedule (UTC+2) for the streaming festival this weekend. "Final" means that I won't move anything around by my own account, if anyone wants to announce a stream or wants to move his stream we will find ways to make it possible. Also I shortened my stream on friday from 2 to 1 hour because I wanted to keep it compact.

>>59059

>Serious Burger - tbd

Gonna go Around the World in 80 minutes, or...Where in the World in Carmen Sandiego...whatever. It will be a 2 hour playlist of songs about places. Spoiler: Kashmir made the cut.

>>59080
Let me know when it's time for Toto - Africa so i turn in.

>>59108

I hope you have a bad dream tonight

Prepare angus for some last second schedule changes, we'll likely get 2 more streams in, starting time tomorrow will probably move back to the original 18:00UTC+2. I'll keep you updated.

Major update: Two new streams - Christenklatscher666 on Friday with medieval music and Astolfo on Sunday with UTZ UTZ technobeats. Start on Friday rescheduled to 18:00UTC+2 / 16:00UTC. Also probability for Kosmonauten on Sunday has significantly risen. Looks like we got our schedule now, see you tomorrow guys. Streaming festival HYPE!

It's going to be a call-in show.

Which method of voice call would people prefer? Is Discord fine?

If someone wants to co-host the show, do reply.
Could be more fun that way. Unfortunately, the aussie will be too busy on sunday.

In case anyone was wondering: There will be no server-side recordings of the streams. I'll try recording as much as possible while listening, but if anybody can pull off automatic recordings of the festival streams: Go ahead! If you want to you can also record your own stream so that we can collect them at the end for a compilation, but of course that's not mandatory. But I at least wanted to address that point because there were people asking about records after the first birthday festival and during the cabbage festival, so I at least want to try to collect as much as possible.

>>59246
Discord is fine for me, Skype would also be available.

The playlist for the cringey meta talk-stream.

tfw trying to squeeze Elvis into a playlist at the last minute....

Hope you are all awake and ready for round 2!

>>59303
Excellent. You have to live up to that avatar on the stats page obviously :DD

>>59303
Around the World Playlist

>>59304
Elvis didn't make it ;_;

Stimulating conversation, Ivan sounds erotic as always and the presenter from Uzbekistan like Kevin Spacey!!

v = w

>>59309

>v = w

Who is Kewin Spacey? badum-tssh

Todays winner is "King Crimson - Red"
Since the album is as short as it is great, we're going to play "Dead Kennedys - Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables" afterwards. "Fresh Fruit..." won last week but wasn't played because i fell asleep before the stream started.

Like always we start at 18:00 CET with a little warmup pre-stream, please ignore the pre-stream and listen to the other streamer, thank you.

>>59310
Is this a trick question?

No, but seriously, really good stream, likeable host and nice guests - does the host actually do this professionally?

>>59314

>does the host actually do this professionally?

Radio Ernstiwan is a collection of highly decorated radio pros, so you can expect only the highest quality shows! We're all just some guys who happen to operate a streaming client/microphone, really

>>59118
:)

>>59313
Around 15 minutes for King Crimson to end and Dead Kennedys to begin.

https://anonfiles.com/ne17J2F8ud/Brickscast_-_Radio_Ernstiwan_-_Second_Birthday_Show_ogg

Here's the recording if anyone cares

Also, people notified me about the stream dropping during the first track, and now that I've checked it, I'm pretty sure that's just the song :-DDDD.
The track has a part where it intentionally stops abruptly.

Psychobilly & Horror Punk stream started.

For chat, most Ernsts are here during the Birthday Party Streams: https://discord.gg/UpXdrxG

>>59324
This. We suddenly realized that it really looks bad for any bystander when you're having a big fat party and the lights in your room are out. Maybe we have to find another solution next time, like using the radio threads, which I guess would have gone triple platinum systemkontra by now.

Bernd67 hardcore techno stream started with a few minutes intro, yuno stream will continue for a few minutes.

Bernd67-stream now taking wishes. If you want a song played just post it in the thread!

Just another wish, here is something that fits the theme of the stream a bit better

>>59338
sorry ernst...i fall asleep in my chair
now there will be streamed difeerent types of music and also yortu wish is playing right now

Prost, my Kazakh friend!

>>59355
Prost.

In about 40 minutes the computer game music stream will start. The stream will start a few minutes early to have a smooth transition from the ongoing stream. It's just an introduction for the first 5 minutes or so, so you won't miss anything. Join me for a blast from the past with music from computer games from the 1982-2000 era. Happy 2nd birthday to Radio Ernstiwan, may there be many more.

>>59357
Always nice to see the power of the tiny sound chips and the creativity of the sound engineers squeezing so much out of it.

Ernst album, prepare yourself!

https://anonfiles.com/b9k7VeF0u2/Brickscast_Day2_Ernstiwan2ndBirthdayStream_ogg
Here's a recording of my stream from earlier if poeple need it.

>>59362
Yes, appreciated, downloading now...

Party over, and boy, what a party it was! For 3 days straight the radio and the discord were glowing! Even to say that the expectations were exceeded would be a colossal understatement. I don't even know where to start: Every single stream reached double figures in listeners, listeners full of praise, lots of new streamers, great music and great call-in shows with lots of assburgerism, huge diversity in genres, streams almost around the clock, Funpaku on Radio Ernstiwan, 20 listeners for Kosmonauten (statistics module shows only 19 :DD) - this list could be extended even further.

Thanks a lot to all streamers and listeners, I think the event was great advertisement for the radio and for EC as a whole. In case you missed anything you now can listen to it, since we managed to record every stream:

Fug it. Gonna stream some video games for an hour or so on the radio discord. Consider it a late birthday stream if you want.

FYI: I will restart the radio server at 14:15UTC to activate a new account, the ongoing stream will be disconnected for a few seconds.

Todays winner is "System Of A Down - Toxicity".

i am tdrunk ajnd imn the radio is pülayiong irgewndwas.behimndert :3

One week has passed since the birthday festival: Time to recollect and write down the ideas created during that time.

• For the next festival I'd put the streaming plan on the radio page, since posting 3 times on /int/, /b/ and discord, where you have to search for them in the thread is not optimal
• There was an idea about an Ernst audio play
• Chatmin asket if we wanted to replace the radio chat with a discord widget. I had a look at this and so far could only find an easy integration that shows who is online on discord, but does not allow chat. I have to do more research what can be done here.
• There will like be a Brick & Iwan Coop show in the near future
• As much fun as discord is: It directs traffic away from the board. For bystanders who don't know our discord this must look sad: The streaming festival is on, and the radio threads are only sparsely populated. Maybe we should think about another way of handling this. An idea was to ask Ernstadmin to create a new (maybe temporary) radio board.
• Since Ernstalbum was well received and the /int/ folks showed interest there may be a possibility for Ernstalbum v2, this time with international focus

Please add anything I forgot or any new ideas you have. I'm also interested in opinions about the above bullet points, especially about the whole discord/chat/new board-issue.

Tonight at 19:00 CEST I will stream the self-titled EP of the Rock Against Weeds band Pflanzer and then the soundtrack of the Gamecube classic Eternal Darkness. We will finish by about 20:15.

Hail Satan! Hail Odin!

22:00 CEST - Silent Hill 1 soundtrack. Dark Ambient/Industrial from Japan.

Tonight at 20:00 CEST we will try to answer the question what kind of bands could (would?) play a gig in Silent Hill (Otherside).
For that I chose Outre' by australian experimental death metal band Portal and Things Viral by american drone/doom supergroup Khanate, which a female acquaintance of mine, upon hearing it in my car, once called scary and creepy.

Before the first album we'll have some 10 minutes of lord worshipping praise music.

This weeks winner is "Gang Starr - Moment of Truth".

Since we recently noticed that it would be nice to have a function for announcing upcoming streams which would also integrate into EC I patched something together. It's fresh from the Ernstiwan coding labs and in alpha stadium, so funny things could happen. There's a new menu point "Calendar", here you can login with your radio account and announce a stream. The time zone is UTC, I think that is the most friendly solution for users from different time zones. This page also shows all streams that have been announced by you, includig a delete-button for each one. There's no edit-button though, that seemed much workenings for those few inputs needed.

On the statistics page the next 3 upcoming streams (smallest start date which is still larger than the current time) are shown. I shitposted there so that there is some content. This shows 2 starting times: A germoid one and a UTC one. Maybe we don't even need the end time, not sure yet. What do you think: Should the end time be included or not?

In the next phase I would ask Ernstadmin if we can integrate the next upcoming stream on EC, just like live streams are shown. I'd create a json file with the necessary infos. To prevent misunderstandings: It's just for marketing purposes, it doesn't do anything technically, like blocking resources or whatever.

I inserted a duration field now instead of the end timestamp because I didn't want to have 4 timestamps in a single row. Also there's some basic input validation happening now, like for example you can't submit an end time which is smaller than the start time, and the description will cut off at 255 (old school) chars.
