Chilled Late Night of Chilled Sounds

Let’s chill with some chilled sounds in this Wintry feeling late evening.

The Time, Lindsey Stirling, Laura Branigan, Charlie Parker, Stacy Latisaw, Giveon, Tracy Chapman and artists like that spread of genres an more.

Back Streaming the Music for Snakeice’s House of Beats

Well the Windows 2019 server took multiple reboots plus takes 5 times as long to boot since it physical server versus a VM like my Fedora Linux music Relay server.

Back up and running some Gumbo mixes from Snakeice’s House of Beats with artists like Miles Davis and Robert Glasper, Stylistics, Toni Braxton, ACDC, Run DMC, Green Day, Sweet Sensation ….

Updating Music Servers Snakeices House of Beats

Hate interrupting the musical flow I have set for this breezy Saturday at least here in California but I need to update my music servers of W2019 and my Fedora Linux music relay servers.

In the midst of some a nice mixed genre Saturday mix with jazz, R&B, Rock, Hip-Hop, Reggae even Country from all eras so its not a boring mix of one genre. Come back and I have mixed in some songs we haven’t heard in my mix in a while long with some of my favorites and new music.

Now its a race to see what servers reboot faster my Linux relay VMs or my physical W2019 server. The Linux relay server always win but you never know!

Let’s Listen to Some Music Together

I set up some songs with a list of chill with artists like Sly Johnson, Samuelle, Ellie Goulding, Coco Jones with some upbeat sets with artists like Jagged Edge, Nickelback, with chill like Ice Cube, LL Cool J. Even jazzing it up artists like Roy Hargrove and Nathan Mitchell.

An all around sounding Saturday of music.

Back Streaming After Power Shutdowns

I had a UPS malfunction and then take down my other UPS’s but I’m all up and running again. The story is here https://dhoytt.com/mainblog/2025/10/server-ups-crashed-but-back-up/.

I had a nice set setup for a wild late Friday night and was in the midst of that when everything went down but I still have several hours setup and then we have my select scripts pulling from my select pools of music.

Sit back and enjoy!https://dhoytt.com/snake-ice-radio-blog/now-playing/

Back to Normal Programming

Back to my normal rules for pulling songs from my select pools. I got a few songs in I normally dont by going random today.

Wide Open Track Randomization Today

I know it may seem very random already on my site the way the songs play there’s actually some structure to the songs being played. Today I am going almost full random without prioritization for years or eras. I may jump in from time to time to throw in a set I want to here but going wide and random for a while!

Updated OS on Music Related Servers

Updated my music relay servers for IceCast and ShoutCast which run on Fedora Linux 41 currently and my server they connect to that I use for my streaming application that on Windows 2019 currently.

Old School Coming Through Saturday

That’s right this Saturday afternoon going back ro some “Old School” Hip-Hop, R&B and a bit of rock but mainly the first two genres from ‘70’s to early ‘90’s and a few others hear and there.

Here you can see whats coming up and what’s playing currently: https://dhoytt.com/snake-ice-radio-blog/now-playing/

Artists like Sweet Sensation, Gap Band, Whodini, The Egyptian Lover, Heatwave, Cheryl Lynn, The Knack and so many more like that. Lets have some Old School fun.

Music Server Back and Streaming

Well the clone of the system was going fine and hit the 100 percent mark with the data drive and then seemed to panic when it went to the boot drive. I’ll have to review the log files. Either way I’m bringing the music server back online!

I’ll review what the issue is with the cloning later. Never had many issues cloning system with Clonezilla before.

Enjoy the sounds!
