| Title: Vol. 2 Episode 14 (Click Link to Play) | Rel: 04/11/06 |
| Description: DJ Digitalflood spins the last regularly produced Pirate Radio show before the show went on hiatus solo. DJ Digitalflood does a whole show dedicated to Johnny Cash. It’s back to back Cash tunes including some rare songs you don’t normally hear elsewhere. Classic show and a good way to close two years worth of top notch webcasts. | |
| Title: Vol. 2 Episode 13 (Click Link to Play) | Rel: 04/04/06 |
| Description: DJ Digitalflood spins on his own and provides us with the soundtrack to Spring Break 2006. From Punk Rock to Hardcore to Industrial to Hip Hop, he covers it all. There’s a few dedications thrown in for fun. Good stuff. So good that DJ Digitalflood calls out the other webcasts. Not much else to say. | |
| Title: Vol. 2 Episode 11 (Click Link to Play) | Rel: 03/13/06 |
| Description: DJ Digitalflood goes solo again to do some mixing. We find out he cannot say “plethora”, but he can mix Rock, Blues, and Metal with the best of them. The episode features a song called “Harlem Child” by local Blues guitar legend Bill Perry who passed away suddenly due to illness in 2007. Digitalflood was a huge fan and this episode has been dedicated in memory of Bill Perry. You can purchase his albums online at Amazon. Highly recommended for music fans of all ages and genres. | |
| Title: Vol. 2 Episode 6 (Click Link to Play) | Rel: 02/07/06 |
| Description: DJ Digitalflood gives everybody the week off and spins solo. Some of the best mixing ever, but also some of the worst monologues ever. Proof why DJ Digitalflood makes sure to have lots of people on to make him appear funny. It’s all smoke and mirrors baby! If you love Hip Hop and Rap this one is for you though there’s a bit of rock in there too to keep things interesting. | |
* DJ Digitalflood (aka Chris Welch) originally started his broadcast career with underground taped radio shows featuring himself and his brother recorded during the early 90s. Arguably it stands as one of the worst amateur radio shows of its time.
* DJ Digitalflood started his semi-professional career as a DJ while attending SUNY Orange between 1996 and 1999. During that time he appeared daily on WOCC Radio (530 AM Middletown, NY) under the moniker flAnnelmAn. His luncheon hour show was called “The flAnneljAm”.
* DJ Digitalflood became the Vice President of WOCC Radio in the Fall Semester of 1999. By the end of the semester the college administration had closed the radio station down citing inappropriate behavior and safety concerns. True story… unfortunately.
* In real life, MC Mary @ The Disco! is really DJ Digitalflood’s sister (though she may deny it when asked).
* Volume 1 and 2 were recorded in DJ Digitalflood’s bedroom while living at his Mom’s house.
* All voice takes with the exception of two incidents were recorded in one take. All were unedited in their final form.
* Groucho is really DJ Digitalflood’s cat. He really does attack the recording equipment several times over the course of Volume 1 and 2.
* Pirate Radio is recorded with the same computer and software listed in DJ Digitalflood’s Bio in a similar manner that Digitalflood music tracks are produced.
* Commonly with guests came their “posses”. This created ad hoc studio audiences of four or five other people during recording.
* DJ Digitalflood’s daughter in real life is Georgette @ The Disco. She was four years old during the recording of the Volume 1 season.
* Georgette @ The Disco does really bite DJ Digitalflood during Vol. 1 Episode 9.
* Contrary to popular belief MC Mary @ The Disco! was not truly “Robo-Tripping” during the Christmas Episode (Vol. 1 Episodes 11 and 12). She is a really good actor though.
* DJ SlipK recorded several episodes of his own web cast, which can still be found on the Net if you search hard enough.
* Volume 1 Episode 6 was one of a few times where DJ Digitalflood had four 16 year old girls in his bed… Before you call the police– he himself was not in the bed at any time. He was way across the room manning the recording equipment. It does make a great joke though. Gotcha!
* Jeff of course really did know he was on a Pirate Radio show (Vol. 1 Episode 5) and appears several times over the course of Volume 1 and 2 as Hulk Hogan.
* Macho Man Randy Savage is really voiced by Skow.
* Having a four year old around (DJ Georgette @ The Disco!) forced the radio team to rethink how it did its comedy. The result was more in the line of thought out jokes and resulted in some of the more complex humor.
* An average Pirate Radio show took two hours to record, but required about an hour of prep time along with an average of four hours of post-production to make a 60 minute show. The pre and post production work was performed solely by DJ Digitalflood.
* Shows were recorded 24 hours before their release date.
* At its peak in late 2005, Pirate Radio has close to 100 weekly listeners.
