Jukebox is smart. We are smart.

Hello, I'm Jahner.

I am not a smart man but I know what jukebox is.

Recently the music had a good work over and was tagged according to the genre of the music as it was a huge mess with the tagging. After hours of listening and tagging this was completed.

The scripting has finally been accomplished to make the jukebox “smarter”. If a DJ is unavailable and they play dance then the jukebox will play dance during that slot. You are now able to tune into the Jukebox and each day a specific genre will be what you hear, versus the mix and match you would previously have heard. For example Monday – Friday at 1000 kicks off Easy Listening. Monday, Tuesday, and Fridays at 1730 kicks off Dance. Wednesday and Thursdays at 1730 kicks off Rock.

Requests will still work as normal but the auto selector will now favour the slot's genre when making it's selection.

Coming soon will be an update to our schedule that will show you what genre the slot is set to play. This is all dependent on QGazQ being awake or sober long enough to accomplish this feat. If we are all lucky he will even wear his hot pink cape while he does. The pictures will be distributed accordingly.

So enjoy the changes that have been made and all the beatings that have happened in the background to make this happen. The beatings are much needed and we would like to say they are distributed evenly, but we would be lying.

So enjoy the changes. There are more refreshing changes to come.
