Socop 2 August newsletter
Hello all and welcome to the TAW Radio August Newsletter. We hope that you enjoy this newsletter and learn about all the content, projects, promotions, and so much more that’s happening at your TAW Community Radio station this month.
As our new DJ’s complete their boot camps, they are set loose to roam the airwaves to spread good cheer for all that listen. This month we would like to feature our two newest DJ shows in celebration of their first successful broadcast. TAW radio staff would like to congratulate Akai and Hellhammer for their first successful broadcasts and this article is our show of appreciation towards all of the hard work you give to TAW radio.
Hellhammer is our first EU DJ and is bringing on the heavy metal to TAW Radio. His show “Into the Pit” is live recorded on Fridays and Saturdays 2-4pm EST. His show title is based off of the idea of diving into a mosh pit at a rock concert. In his own words, “Into the pit means jumping in with me as a guide for the listeners through different genres of metal. So that they will maybe find something new to listen to.” His show was based off of his love for heavy metal music. While his broadcasting, he will explain each song individually both in its individual content and as a band. He hopes to expose our listeners to good heavy metal music spanning multiple decades. His final thoughts are that he wishes his listeners gain an appreciation for this unique genre and hopefully to change a few opinions about this generally negatively viewed genre.
Akai gains the growing ranks of NA DJ’s whom was brought on by special request from Vermguy. His show “The Rabbit hole” is recorded live 12-2 pm on Thursdays. This show plays all genres of music across the board during his broadcast. In his “Shotgun patterned” brain, when you dive deep into the rabbit hole, you could start with classical music and end with Celtic punk. This show spawns from the idea that selecting one genre gave him too much pressure. By doing this, he can please all and go where his mind wanders and accept all user requests as he paves his way through genres and music styles. Finally, he wishes that all his listeners should know his unique love for history and looks forwards to many conversations with his new future listening base.
Similar to other battalions, TAW radio has operating fees similar to server fees and cannot run on just hard work alone. If you enjoy the services our excellent DJ's provide through their talk shows, prize giveaways, and other services, please consider donating a little to help radio continue to prosper.

Our second survey is brand new and is directed towards those that wish to advertise here on TAW radio. With the introduction of this new survey, you will soon be able to get your messages broadcasted across the net reaching all listeners multiple times a day. The content of these messages can be anything of the requesting officer’s choice as long as it follows TAW CoE and fits in the designated time allotted. We hope that all divisions in TAW utilize this service to get better publicity for their game and help grow our listenership here on TAW Radio
