The Global Soundwave Broadcasters
Crew is lead by Marc Taylor (Australia) and James Williams (USA).
Both have had both extensive dance music and broadcasting backgrounds.
Together the 2 are now heavily pursuing the dream of global “pure digital” (satellite) global transmition.
James, The METHOD, is a well-known DJ / Producer in California, USA, and will be maintaining the program’s website initially, until the business grows to have a sponsored server streaming 24 hours a day world wide via the Internet.
Marc Taylor, who has grown up around Sydney Clubs and bars, has held residence at Fox Studios Sydney, and SOHO bar in Sydney, as well as having extensive dance radio experience. He presented breakfast for around 5 years on a Sydney community aspirant station, as well as being heavily involved in the implementation of Foxtel digital in Australia.
Amanda Jermyn has lived and breathed the Entertainment Industry since the age of three. She has been working as a performer since a very young age in venues all across Australia and in California, USA. Her passion for music and performance has lead her to collaborate with other artists, Dj’s, and producers, working on her own sound.
Marc Taylor told radioinfo: ” Ideally the business plan is to expand our broadcasting capacity to a global broadcast via satellite, whilst we will be maintaining a website that will also eventually stream full time to back up our satellite transmition.
“With the distinct possibility of establishing a subscription type of radio channel for future localized digital subscription services and other portable satellite devices as they become more prevalent in the market place for consumers.
“ We want to provide a new generation of music to a new generation of digital consumers providing a platform for the entire market to be driven for the future.”
