not too sure if someone has made a post about this recently, i havent been around much.

just listened to the oct 17th kiss mix, which is one of john's best efforts of late. its just to bad that around 34 minutes in there is a bloody commercial that comes along and destroys any vibe that was going on. i mean, it was bad enough they moved his time slot to sunday fucking morning, but now this seems to be a re-occuring thing.

maybe if we all email kiss fm and tell them to stop pulling that shit...

/end rant.

Re: the fucking commercials in the middle of the kiss mixes

I don't like the jingles too...I think it?s strange to air commercials at 3 am in the morning anyway...and only in Digweed's sets not in the guest mix. I can cut the jingles out and add fade in/outs at the end/beginning of the individual parts with Soundforge for the upcoming sets if the majority of members posting in this thread is okay with it.

^ | i cant see anyone having a problem with that.

Re: the fucking commercials in the middle of the kiss mixes

I can. :lol: Some people like to have the "original" recordings without somebody puts his hands on them. I don't see a problem at all too especially as I listen to most sets on my headphones and a cracking commercial comes in pretty disturbing when you listen loud to Music. :shock:

Question is how anal our members are and if they prefer original recordings from edited recordings....

Re: the fucking commercials in the middle of the kiss mixes

I do find it a little odd that they air the jingles in John's set, but not the guest mix.

Could maybe be since 3a-4a is a higher listening hour, then that's where things get put in. (vs. the 4-5a).

Also, it should be basically run on automation, so if someone forgot to pull them out, or the like, then they just run, sometimes slightly "off schedule"...you can tell on that because it hits at different points each week.

If they're going to run, JD should just cut his mix down to 2 :30 "sets"...I know each mixshow is dependent on the station, but ultimately it IS radio.

Still though, I think I'd take out the break...I doubt too many people would be upset that it got "doctored" a bit.

Re: the fucking commercials in the middle of the kiss mixes

The reason he said he moved his show to the new and worse off timeslot is because he said that's the only way Kiss FM would let him keep his show commercial free :(

I remember that and obviously they lied b/c the last month or so they have been putting comericals in his mix. Which sucks it just ruins the damn mix most of the time. We should email diggers and see what he can do about it. It has worked before.

I agree...it does kill the flow. TomTom...If it's not too much trouble, I'm sure everyone would be more than happy with your efforts.

Actually was in the Trafik guest mix a couple of weeks back. I don't really have an opinion one way or the other as far as a fade in/out as I think that as long as the commercials are there, there will be some sort of disruption to the ear.

Re: the fucking commercials in the middle of the kiss mixes

I feel lucky to be able to get my hands on these sets week after week with or without commercials. Commercial free would be preferred if TomTom doesn't mind putting in the extra effort.

I wouldn't know if Digweed's arrangement with Kiss100 is contingent on the commercials, but they've got to go. If Tom has the time and energy, by all means; otherwise, I'll continue to enjoy the sets as is.

Re: the fucking commercials in the middle of the kiss mixes

yes it was better without the commercials but i dont mind much! when a show has a good flow i cut them with cooledit :Bingo:

have not listened to a kiss mix in so long, i barely know what you're talking about.

maybe they do adverts in johns part (or he agreed to it) because, tho his is a set, it is also a showcase of new choons coming out. and the guest mix is just that, a guest mix. So maybe he agreed to only have adverts in his section as opposed to fucking up his guests hard work.. just an idea

who knows, either way, i dont have a problem with a little fade in and out, if that's not too much for you to do. other wise, just the fact that you go thru the trouble of obtaining and offering said mixes is enough for most of us I think.

Re: the fucking commercials in the middle of the kiss mixes

it would be nice if it did not stop the music, that is what makes it a mix.

[quote=unome";p="67683] So maybe he agreed to only have adverts in his section as opposed to fucking up his guests hard work.. just an idea[/quote]

I still have in mind that Digweed said his slot will change to keep his show commercial free...then he said he?s back in 2-3 weeks before his show was taken down but it took some weeks longer to come back. To me it seems Mr. Digweed's words do not count that much in the Kiss100 management and he has no influence at all. Maybe his new show in the USA is a test and if it?s succesful and reaches the same number or even more people, Kiss100 is history.... who knows.

Re: the fucking commercials in the middle of the kiss mixes

I like the ads, they are the highlight of the show :Bingo:

Re: the fucking commercials in the middle of the kiss mixes

You are only bitter and negative because you know that if the kiss show is over you will be fired ASAP.

Ripmeister ---> :AssKicki: <----me

:CrackUp: :ROFLMAO:

Re: the fucking commercials in the middle of the kiss mixes

Tom Tom.... New Digweed show in the USA??? Time slot? Day?? First i'ver heard of it??? HMMM

Cheers!!

Re: the fucking commercials in the middle of the kiss mixes

Yeah TomTom, fade in then out would be cool. That commercial really killed it as I was just about to put my hands in the air in euphoria. But if it isn't too much trouble I would definately welcome it.

Ok so far nobody requested the original recordings so I will cut the commercials out from now on...only takes me five minutes so it?s no biggie.

Cheers TomTom, you're the bestest! :RockOn: :Bingo: :LoveYou:

Re: the fucking commercials in the middle of the kiss mixes

The advert in the middle of the Trafik guest mix was for the Floor fillers :Barf: album, i mean come on, the folks that are listening to Diggers arent gonna go out and buy that shit are they? I do like the pot noodle one though, but not, i might, add in the middle of a sweet mix like Trafiks.

Fade em out Tom and keep em coming :RockOn:

Re: the fucking commercials in the middle of the kiss mixes

thanks tomtom for cuting the comercials off the sets in the future, they were really anoying, especialy cause they had nothing to do with music(last comercial i heard on jd kiss100 set was for noodles)

[quote=";p="67675] have not listened to a kiss mix in so long, i barely know what you're talking about. [/quote]

haha same here.

what are you guys talking bout? there is commercials like for burger king or something in the midst of a set?

^^^ i hear you can download them here.. try it out, and see what adverts there are ;)

i dont really like the Kiss mixes too much... prepares to be shot down

I dont listen to them much any more either. But it is nice to know they are there.

I've got your back DreamGirlie, lol

i rarely listen to the guest mixes, but c'mon people...johns stuff is money most weeks.

[quote=DreamGirlie";p="67863]i dont really like the Kiss mixes too much... prepares to be shot down[/quote]

i don't either, not even john's. :|

:Tongue:

Cutting the adverts is like theft... Those adverts pay for the mixes, so listen and feel warm inside :D

:roll: Riiiigggghhhhtt!

I don't have a problem wiht the ads... some of them are pretty funny (like thee ghonorrea one, or the other about the dealer asking questions like a doctor would...) they're just a couple, no big deal. Anyways, you can put them in the .cuesheet and just jump to the next track when they're on (if you use .cues...of course).

At least there are no 'doble ve doble ve doble ve' long, annoying jingles every two minutes like in Hernan's resident show. Stupid, long, useless jingles... they tell you what time the show is on... I'm f*cking listening to it! I already know what time the show is! and why would I want to know every five minutes what's the url of Hernan's site? one time is enough!

aaahhh... I needed that

So, keep the ads, jump a couple of seconds on your player, let Tom use his sunday time on other things.

i agree, leave the ads in...it will just confuse me if i hear a fade in and out. at least with the ads in i know what's going on.

Hey look, where'd you get that yellow card??

Re: the fucking commercials in the middle of the kiss mixes

:cry:

:lol:

It sucks that they have to air, but again it is radio and that's the basis of radio...gotta air them at some point.

At least they are a bare minimum; some "mixshows" you're lucky to get 20-minute sets before a nice long break of commercials kick in (but also that's attributed to the popularity of said show sometimes)
