You opinion on my show...

s it a coincidence that all those mentioned are French

1 genre dedicated episodes will certainly limit your listeners count to only the style being played, why go there when you can satisfy all different tastes in just 1 package, ever thought about shrinking the songs length to 3:00/4:30 ? Even tiesto did it.

eventhough my input might be radical but this is what i would personally prefer:
have different styles mixed altogether (but not seperately) i.e dont start with techno go house then trance and so on.. instead fuse the genre and subgenre altogether to form one solid journey that will include different styles pleasing a larger number of fans while not bringing anyone to the edge of getting bored and losing interest. probably you would have to drop the harmonic mixing though which isnt a great loss IMO since nobody really cares of how harmonic your set is as long as it's good music!
PS: having a separate show for each style will def cause fans to quit since it would be harder to keep up with a show that would only play 1 episode of my music per month!

I'm moving more and more away from the idea of one-genre-per-episode after gathering your opinions guys...

An alternative I'm thinking of is this: one episode with a "dark" feel spanning across all 3 genres, one episode with a "bright" feel spanning across all 3 genres, and repeat. What do you think of that for a change?

^ Wahahahahaha!!! Aleco! Still alive?

Ah the memories... Dion had so many shows under so many sophisticated names that it really got hard to keep up.

[Aleco]

Those tunes back then sounded different. Remember Dithyrambs??

[DIONYSOS]

Good memories!

Crow actually I think your idea is brilliant, I'll check with NRJ about that!

Everyone else - what do you think of "one episode with a "dark" feel spanning across all 3 genres, one episode with a "bright" feel spanning across all 3 genres, and repeat"?

Dio, i think its brilliant that your letting your fellow mortals throw an input on what your show should be like!

To be honest, for quite a while I had a similar problem, and for those of us who enjoy different sounds and associate themselves with these sounds, they ultimately want to play all these sounds that define them. My problem, or shall I say blessing, was that I love proggie sounds alot, but they were not fitting in well with the dark vibe Kay-Ville sends out, so for a while I threw in random full-on proggie episodes, but then I noticed it was a bit strange going back to the dark shit completely the next week, so id transition into proggie from tech and backwards over several sets, but that also meant that if I say finished a set on a prog vibe, id try to open on a prog vibe the next set and shift to whatever I want from there. My solution was to get a full-on proggie show once a month (Aural Anarchy) were I'd let out all my happy stuff that I loved that month or so, and leave Kay-Ville to it's dark identity. That doesn't mean that I wont play the odd prog track on Kay-Ville, hell im always shifting between tech/house/prog/breaks/ambient/dub but now it can be done in a way that I feel more chillaxed me with.

It all goes down to how much time you have on your hands. If you can, I say it would be worth to look into running 2 shows, why not? Plus it will give you more exposure, and your objective of delivering well programmed sets that harmonize and sound great will have been achieved.
