And rock without guns
Last year a friend sent me a phone message to say you Rock 101 begin a three-day special broadcast, which shook it to friends because all ears Reactor turned rock musical about the idea of 101. Like many hundreds of thousands (millions "?), I heard the station during its entire existence, I spent the years of hearing her school and college, and as they all tuned in return ...
only music programmed "cientoúnica" nothing happened Moreover, the event was the nostalgia. Is not heard no surprise, no proposal seemed to programs recorded in the eighties, bland like a pie that hardens. A while later I turned off and put on a cd, I forget which. Memory recognized almost every song I heard, but the music sounded warm, flat, loose, roe. I rang unarmed, to rock without guns. However, there were people who followed the transmission, the success they had given an assurance to transmit over the Internet with this feeling that the past was always better. 
A year later, we suddenly became friends on facebook. 101 now interacts with the listeners through the network. The station put an issue or a question launches and dozens respond, comment and requested songs that make them remember something. I think good idea, but are corny to the opposite wall and pick up the station when it all comes down. Your speakers sound tired and bored, sometimes clumsy and distracted (as Abel Membrillo). Musically, it's almost the same, hits from the eighties and nineties, seasoned with current songs, "adult contemporary" who faint from excitement if you listen to The Police.
When the radio dial in the frequency modulation was rocked Radio Hits, WFM and Universal, Rock 101 was a real option and had a proposal. But today, when there are thousands of Internet stations much better, I wonder how back. You do not have anything interesting to offer except the emotional hook to the past. For months I listened to radio on the Internet to catch up, i Tunes has an endless array of stations in categories from A to Z: ages, genders, current styles, groups ... in that scenario, the virtual dial, Rock 101 is as * Nesa-Pong video game, it sounds like a museum piece. 
was in those moves when I came across a group-mo-men-to, they came relatively recently: Phoenix, equivalent to the Police during these days with less inventive than the trio. Weeks go by and I hear that resonates today as before the new old rock without guns, the difference with the past is that here you can access the other rock we seek, the thug rock, which was impossible before the quadrant, until it appeared Stereo Young. So thanks to the diversity of online radio, we were not condemned to listen Phoenix or Phoenix, as happened with The Police at the time. Long live the new times, good rock and good radio.
