Three Radio - Now A Podcast?
Posted by Anthony on Tuesday July 28th 2009 at 15:33.
After much thinking about the future of Three Radio, it looks like we're not going to be doing any more live shows. However we are not going for good. We are considering making Three Radio into a podcast. That is, instead of listening to the show live, we make the show and you download it from the website and listen whenever you like, wherever you like.
We are currently producing our first show and it should be available to download by next week. Based on the response to this show, we will decide to continue making shows like that or not.
The new shows will be 1 hour long and still contain brand new music, competitions, requests, features and presents. To keep each show original, we will be having more special features each show, starting with the first part of our A-Z of music in the first show.
We will still be playing your requests, all you have to do is let us know what you want played from the request a song page.
We hope that you'll listen to our first podcast and let us know what you think. Follow us on facebook to find out when the show becomes available to download.

Win 1kg Of Mini Eggs
Posted by Anthony on Tuesday June 16th 2009 at 15:33.
Tune in to the Ant and Lex show this Friday at 9PM (UK Time) where we'll have a comptition for you to win 1kg of Cadbury Mini Eggs. To win, you have to guess how many Mini Eggs fit into a Three Radio mug. The person who guesses closest wins!
Conditions And Junk:
Entries are only allowed by phone on 07754408883 or Skype at threeradio. You can tell us your guess by another means but you will not be eligable to win. If two or more people guess the same amount, each person must say why they want the Mini Eggs and we'll chose the winner based on who has the best (funniest) reason. The winner must collect the eggs or pay for shipping. You are not eligable to win if you've won a prize in a Three Radio competition in the last six months. The weight (1kg) is approximate, the winner will receive 300 mini eggs.
The competition opens when first announced live on Three Radio on June 19th.
Good luck everyone.
A Song For Your Summer: Sugar Ray - Boardwalk
Posted by Anthony on Saturday May 30th 2009 at 15:33.
Rock group Sugar Ray is gearing up to release their new album Music For Cougars on July 21st. I heard this song whilst listening through the new tracks for June 2009 an this one stood out as a nice summery song (although the message it sends itsn't that great, just enjoy the tune).
Below you can listen their first single from the new sew album; "Boardwalk".
Song Of The Week 11/05/2009: Carolina Liar - I'm Not Over
Posted by Anthony on Tuesday May 12th 2009 at 15:33.
It looks like Carolina Liar are about to make it here in the UK. Radio 1 is currently playing "Show Me What I'm Looking For" and claiming it's their debut single. They are of course sucking at music as always. Carolina Liar's first single - "I'm Not Over" was released on May 19th 2008 in America and we've been playing it on Three Radio since then. For this reason, "I'm Not Over" is my song of the week, so that this great song isn't overlooked. Don't get me wrong, "Show Me What I'm Looking For" is a great song, but be prepared for people blasting it out of their phones and ruining it like what happens to every great song that the UK charts get a hold of.

Song Of The Week 04/05/2009: Phoenix - 1901
Posted by Anthony on Monday May 4th 2009 at 15:33.
This is the second song to be released from Phoenix's forthcoming album Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, which is still a mystery - no artwork or track listing has been released yet. The album is set to be released worldwide on May 25th and in the US on May 26th.
Until then here's 1901 by Phoenix...

Song Of The Week 27/04/2009: T9 - Oda Nashei Lyubvi
Posted by Alex on Saturday May 2nd 2009 at 15:33.
As a non-Russian speaker, information about T9 is pretty sketchy. Last.fm thought it was a Chinese rock group, and Google thought I was interested in predictive texting. Basically they are a Hip Hop group from Russia, and my favourite of their songs (which is my Song of the Week for this week), is Ода нашей любви (Oda Nashei Lyubvi), which made it onto the soundtrack for the video game Grand Theft Auto: 4. Its featured on the Russian music station within the game called Vladivostok FM, and despite not even getting recognition on the Wikipedia page for the GTAIV soundtrack, is one of my favourite tracks from the game.
If you are in the UK or US, you can listen to the song using Last.fm by clicking here

How To: Internet Radio On Xbox 360
Posted by Anthony on Saturday July 19th 2008 at 15:33.
So picture this, you think to yourself "oh man, the DHA show is about to start, but I just got this new 360 game I want to check out". No longer a problem - now you can listen to Three Radio on your Xbox 360, from the dashboard or in-game. All it needs is a program installed on your computer and you're good to go. The only drawback is that your computer needs to be on when you want to listen.
Obviously it works with other internet radio stations as well, but this tutorial gives you the details for the best one :)
The program you need is called TVersity and is completely free. Read on for the quick tutorial on setting it up.

The DHA Show is on the horizon!
Posted by Joe on Sunday April 27th 2008 at 15:33.
The DHA Show will be just like SFM but hosted by DHA! DHA will be hosting his own show on Wednesday evenings and more often if demanded, which is VERY likely. The show will contain Rock, Alternative, D&B, Electronica and Metal. Requests and call-in's will be taken but the show will be mainly run by DHA himself.
Text In To Request
Posted by Anthony on Friday January 4th 2008 at 15:33.
You can now text in to request your songs, straight from your phone.
Just send:
request@threeradio.net artist - title
Where artist is the artist and title is the title of the song (you might want to check that we've got the song first though!).
For example: request@threeradio.net dashboard confessional - hands down
Then send it to:
07766404142 (Note that that's not the usual number for calling in or sending texts)
It only costs your standard rate for sending a message.
It's still pretty experimental at the moment, we don't know how it handles songs with apostrophes and other symbols in the title. But give it a go and give us your feedback.

Three Radio On Your S60 Phone - Now Working!
Posted by Anthony on Friday March 9th 2007 at 15:33.
I came across this little application that can be run on any phones that use the Nokia S60 platform. It allows you to listen to Shoutcast streams on your phone wherever you are.
Alex has a Nokia N70 so I decided to test it out...
Update (9/3/07): After looking into it a little bit I found out that the reason it didn't work was because O2 uses a proxy for you to connect to the internet. So I popped a Virgin Mobile sim card in there and it worked like a charm. Read the full story for pics.
New and improved now playing thing
Posted by Anthony on Wednesday February 21st 2007 at 15:33.
If you're wondering what's playing on Three Radio right now, it's now easier than ever. Introducing... this little thing I found.
It now shows the album, album art and a link to buy the album, enjoy.
(It works on the majority of songs but there might be a few without album information).
Visit Three Radio to see it in action.

SFM To Build New Studio
Posted by Sam on Thursday February 15th 2007 at 15:33.
After a whole year off air, SFM has decided to try and broadcast once again under the name of 3Radio. Presented by Sam and Chris, SFM has proved to be a real hit with the fans. But now we've decided to build a studio.
After the end of SFM in early 2006 due to computer failure, The crew and I tried to get SFM back on the road. However the computer was beyond repair and funds were low, and due to the need for two computers (one for streaming and the other for source), SFM ceased to be. A year on and I've has decided to attempt making a studio that can not only be used for broadcasting, but also used as a music studio for up and coming stars. A rough plan has been drawn up, and the conversion will include a new homebuilt computer, as well as Behringer MS-16 Monitor speakers, a Behringer UB1832FX Studio Mixer, Shure Microphones and flat panel monitors. Check back soon for more development.
