Loopz Internet Radio was launched on April 27th 2003 and is sponsored by Webair.com. Broadcasts will be every Sunday from 3pm to 7pm (UK Time). What time is it now in the UK ?

The Idea

The idea is to broadcast a 4 hour stream every Sunday at 3pm UK TIME featuring dj sets/live sets from contributing artists. These can range from the known and established to the up and coming unsigned musicians. Inbetween the sets there will be various mp3s played that has the stamp of Loopz recommendation.

We hope to provide full details of all music played and where possible links to find out more and to purchase cds etc. We are a great believer in putting money back into the music industry and exposing those artists that deserve recognition.

Contribute and Communicate

We will also be giving the oppurtunity for you to submit tracks via a ftp site. We cant promise to play them all but some will get some airplay.

During the stream you will be able to view who is playing whether its a dj set or a mp3. There is also an online Loopz Internet Radio Forum and an Online Chat room (log in first or it wont work) to talk about the radio broadcasts but you will need to register first.

Your best option is to download and install Macamp 2.0.1. When you first run it, click "OK" when you're asked if you want Macamp to assign MIME types. This software costs $15 if you want to record streams, but is fully functional if you don't want to shell out any money.

Please Note: this is not intended to be an exhaustive list of Mac MP3 players, merely a simple guide for those new to MP3 streams: if you've got as far as installing a different player, you probably know what you're doing, but they all work in much the same way.

Once you're ready, click on "Listen" (left hand side navigation area). Your browser will download a small file (usually called listen.pls) to your default download folder which will then open the player and stream juicy audio direct to your computer!
