PODCAST AUDIENCE!

Hey! Some good news from Microrave Records regarding the podcast audience!

As you may or may not know, Microrave Records began podcasting in December 2008. The first 3 podcasts consisted of Voltergeist mixes from October, November and December reaching an average of 54 download requests per episode...

Since registering the podcast as an official regular monthly feed (on directory sites such as Oreo & Podcst Alley) I'm pleased to announce an 1000% increase in the average monthly requests!!!

We're sitting at 600 download requests per month, and rising!!!

February's podcast is from Glasgow DJ Altered Mode. Her blend of deep/progressive vibes and minimal beats goes live on the first of the month...

If you haven't subscribed yet, the link to do so is on the column on the left hand side of this page, and also underneath each podcast description in the blog below!
