AIRPLAY INFO
If you are an Original Independent Artist or Band and you would like to receive airplay on Downunda Thunda Radio and our sister broadcast facility Lizard Lounge Radio just go the DTR Get Airplay page, follow the instructions and your on your way.
DTR broadcasts 24/Seven WorldWide to an audience in over 45 countries.
All we ask is the you place a DTR banner on your website, tell your friends about us and just be a part of the DTR independent music family.
We have a monthly featured artists section on DTR and LLR and you could be in the running for further promotion and exposure of your material. Add a comment on the DTR MySpace profile and you could also be placed on our testimonial page.
Over the next few months DTR will be implementing further promotional additions to our site so keep an eye on our MySpace bulletins and news updates.
Thanks to all who given us your support in the past and we look forward to serving and promoting you into the future above all else keep creating original music and remember "Keep Music Live".
We have added a new category to our on site music stream player.
All new artists signing up for airplay go straight into high rotation on our NEW RELEASE stream and current artists will be rotated through this stream as well to give further exposure to the many talented genre presently being aired on DTR.
To give you a clearer idea of the process:
Independent music artists submit their music for inclusion on the DTR playlist. Each track is quality tested to ensure that they comply with the DTR standard criteria for airplay. This includes checking each track for the proper recording format as follows: MP3 - 128kbps - 44100Hz - Stereo.
We have also changed the labeling of each track and ask that you submit your songs with the following naming convention: ARTIST NAME - SONG TITLE - ALBUM TITLE - COUNTRY NAME.mp3
If the tracks are only single releases you don't have to include the Album Title. You will also see tracks using the old naming convention but these will be progressively changed to the new format as we get to them.
By ensuring that all your tracks have the above recording and naming criteria you will be saving us time sorting and renaming your tracks and will get your music onto the playlist quicker.
Due to the high number of tracks being received by DTR, Please allow up to 4 weeks for your tracks to appear on our playlists BUT we will endeavour to get your songs heard as soon as possible before this time constraint.
Tracks on the NEW RELEASES playlist are now being aired from the following independent music artists and more are being added each day.
For the LATEST RELEASES & HIGH ROTATION PLAY LIST go to the Downunda Thunda Radio Main Website and click on the LISTEN NOW!! button then select NEW RELEASES.

DOWNUNDA THUNDA RADIO ROLLS OUT GENRE SPECIFIC PROGRAMMING
Downunda Thunda Radio (DTR) in association with Lizard Lounge Radio (LLR), are two Australian based internet radio stations with continuous broadcasting to the world 24/Seven of original independent music.
Since the commencement of broadcasts on November 1st 2007 and offering all genre broadcasting for independent music artists, both sites have been inundated with requests for airplay by Australian, New Zealand and International Independent Music artists and bands.
Boasting over nearly 500 music acts and close to 2000 tracks on both of their play lists they have now introduced 'GENRE SPECIFIC PROGRAMMING'.
With the current migration to the new servers it gives us the opportunity to categorise our play lists and present a more user friendly 'Genre Specific Programming' format.
Hopefully this will make our listeners a lot more happy, being able to listen to new music of the genre they prefer and staying connected to our streams longer."
Bands who want airplay on the DTR and LLR broadcasting facilities, sign up via a Material Release Form which grants us permission to play the artists material and grants us a waiver for payment of royalties.
If you have submitted your songs or have a current MRF in place and don't see your name on these lists don't despair. Please send an email to info@downundathundaradio.com.au asking about this we will chase it up for you and get back to you with a response or explanation.
Thanks a lot for the add. EletriKa is completely different from every Metal you already know. The Brazilian influences and the Portuguese singularize its style in a New Kind of Metal. If you really like Metal you must check EletriKa out!
