Press Information: June 2008
Citybeat Radio have for the second time taken that one step further. Combined with some of the best ideas used previously, they have come up with something a little bit fresher.
The Citybeat Experience is a Flex 3 application designed for an online radio station, integrated with Jabber/XMPP to provide multiplatform realtime user interaction, alongside streaming audio which utilizes AS3’s sound spectrum to provide entrancing visualizations.
Citybeat Radio is the first station that runs solely on the peoples requirements, They believe radio should be about what people want, not what they are forced to accept.
Quote from Fable
My station will not be over run by useless adverts, we will remain to offer the latest music, fresh events / reviews / gigs / DJS / and exclusive mixes.
We will serve our listeners needs & listen to their requirements, and we will carry on offering the very best clubbing music from around the globe.

Third Ladies Competetion Review:
DJ Virgin Helana - Genre - Electro. Great mix, great production. quirky baselines, packed with attitude.
By the second half it looked as though Virgin Helana was going to take 1st place with breeze. She offered a tremendous electro mix, that oozed energy..
DJ Narcissa - Genre - Minimal A very smooth and well produced set, Narcissa had selected some fantastic minimal tracks..
DJ Fable - Genre - Trance Prog - Fable stepped it up almost immediately with some of the best melodic vocals, blended together with a twist of electro progressive?
Fable is known very well for taking a track and twisting it, to create another level.Very fable and Quite impressive!
Hosted by Vincent Vinyl

His straight to the mark attitude causes a roit each and every session, but by hell does he kill the beats.
DJ Sens - Trance/Minimal - Thursdays 9pm GMT
DJ Sens is by far the most dedicated Citybeat DJ, his trance productions are beautiful, mind blowing, and very emotionally charged. This DJ has the passion, the flare to take you beyond your own emotions.
DJ Sens also selects the best of minimal, rolls it together and produces some mind melting minimal sets.
DJ Fable Friday 9pm GMT Trance/House/Electro

Latest Event Love Parade 2008
June 24, 2008
Highway To Love
The Love Parade 2008 in Dortmund promises to be no less fun than previous editions of the world’s biggest street party, and the date for your diaries is the 19th July. In 1989, it was first celebrated 4 months before the demolition of the Berlin Wall. The parade attracts millions of EDM fans from all across the world for a mad street rally which gathers at the center of the parade is the Siegessäule in the middle of the park, and the golden angel atop the column has become a symbol of the parade.
Anyone who wants to experience Love Parade in the middle weekend of July should be aware of the fact that it is louder and more crowded than most concerts. With its water-cooled sound systems on every truck, the parade produces an extremely loud sound floor. The parade basically lives through those trucks. The trucks usually feature local, or important, clubs and their DJs. It has become a rule that only trucks that have sponsors from a techno related field, such as clubs, labels or stores, are allowed. It costs a lot of money to equip a truck. They are usually open on top and feature dancers. Their box-systems are mounted on the side or the rear. There are two tactics to choose from: Follow a truck that features a style that you like, or have them all pass you so you can see and hear more.
One famous picture from the Love Parade is people sitting and dancing on streetlamps, trees, commercial signs, telephone booths, which gave the event’s nickname "the greatest amateur circus on earth". Not to mention it’s a street party so everyone can attend and no tickets required. This year they are blocking the East to West highway route which has a traffic flow of over 100 000 cars per day, also storming up the main arterial route through the ever growing Ruhr district which is the most densly populated area in Germany. This is an absolute first time in the history of Germany that a highway has been closed for a music and cultural event! The best music will be generated for the crowd and keep your ears open for special appearance and performance by the top international DJs and head down there to support and enjoy a fabulous time.
