The purpose of Euphonious is to simply enjoy the pleasure of listening to great music. I believe that variety is an important part of enjoying music. Therefore, I offer a mix of music like nowhere else, I welcome Rock, Jazz, Pop, Country, Blues and much more all on one web radio station.
Another signature feature of Euphonious is supporting the Indie Music community. I am absolutely thrilled how positive Indie Artists from around the globe have been contributing their music to Euphonious. I must say how talented all of these artists are and I welcome all radio ready Indie Artists. I wish I had the funds to start my own record label it would be easy to do with all these great artist submissions.
This has inspired me to create "The Indie Spotlight". This is a combination of the song of the day and a daily broadcast of a 60 minute conversation with the artist(s). It started as a weekly one hour show and now has evolved into a free one week promotional opportunity. As you can imagine, this has become very popular with the Indie artists and their fans.
A new upcoming show is "In Between The Grooves" which features great vinyl recordings. This show was inspired from the passion of my good friend Jody and his massive collection.
Then, another upcoming show is "The Concert Hall" where a different collection of live music will be featured each week. I have always loved seeing live performances of my favourite music. This show will be the next best thing.
There are now a total of thirteen music related shows to enjoy and there is now a schedule to help you navigate through all of these great shows.
I am very proud of Euphonious and how it has grown in such a short time. I look forward to seeing the listenership continue to grow and interact with each other on Twitter and Facebook. I hope Euphonious grows into an international community where music lovers can converge and interact with one another all "For The Love of Music".
I hope you enjoy this new format of Euphonious!

The beginning of Euphonious
Welcome to the new blog for the web radio station www.euphonious.ca from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
Here is where you will find details to the happenings of my free web radio station. I created Euphonious.ca with my good friend Jody Ure and we began broadcasting a huge library of music (mostly Jody's library) back in October 2012, just as a couple of fanatical music Lovers.
Unfortunately, our business relationship began to burden our friendship and by February 2013 we made the mutual decision to remain friends and dissolve our business relationship. Since, Jody has a full time job and I don't anymore as my health drove me out of the job market. It made sense for me to continue with Euphonious and it would become my job.
I learned rather quickly to my surprise that just playing great music wasn't going to be enough to bring listeners to Euphonious.ca. I thought the idea of playing all major genres of music like Rock, Pop, Jazz, Country, Blues and Classical, all on one station would be the ticket to getting large flocks of listeners to tune in. I was wrong again.
So then, I have created a weekly radio show titled "The Indie Spotlight" which features a new or independent music band and/or solo artist each week discussing their projects and as a catalyst for helping these artists to sell their music. "The Indie Spotlight" now has become a free one week promotional opportunity for the Indie Music community where I play a different song each day of the artist and once an hour. I also introduced a daily Music Trivia question where you can win cd's or tickets to concerts.
All of these efforts have made little but no major difference to my listenership numbers. I know it has been only five months and I need to be patient. I love Euphonious, I am extremely proud of what I have created out of nothing more than a passion for music. This blog is another effort in spreading the word about Euphonious a commercial free independent broadcast promising a diverse music experience at www.euphonious.ca.
If you love music than I think you will love Euphonious, please give it a try and if you do like it please spread the word.
Sincerely,
