Happy New Years, Everyone right now I’m lining up hyped beats for those of you who will be at home tonight to enjoy your New Years. I will not be present but the beats will be lined up for those of you on Eastern time before the magical hour back who want a nice set of hyped tunes with maybe a few nice slow sets as well.

The difference between this and my normal stream is that there will be mostly tunes from the last few years with some old school classics mixed of course.

Now if you have a good internet connection connect from your soundcard/line to your Stereo just as it’s was another stereo component and you have a house party.

The New Years mix should be setup and bumping at approximately 5 or 6 pm PDT. As always I will be still throwing out all types of sounds before that time so stay tuned to a pre-cursor before the official New Years mix.

Just go to http://www.dhoytt.com/snake-ice-radio-blog/ and click on either “HiFi” for broadband or “LoFi” for modem access to listen.

I had to do a little music shuffling and software updates but now back up providing you with beats, tunes and melodies of the best flavors.

I'm kicking that smooth flavor for you tonight for a few ticks of starlight.

I feel like laying out some thick big beatz tonight... Stay with me as I lay beats that get as high as the mountains, as low as the Grand Canyon wide as an LA highway.

Time to lay back with a nice slow set of tunes some with a G flavor.

Just throwing out all types of banging A$$ beats hard core dance etc... Hip-hop R&B and whatever

I’m throwing out a bumping set of beats for the edge of the weekend to blow your spot on the internet up.

Once again its time for some Monday night "Quiet Storm" tunes time in Snakeice's den.

Had some late night hard beats but now the time has come to smooth it out a bit.

Some late night Winter Beats for this cold wet and windy Sunday, at least here in Sacramento California it’s that type of weather.

Kick back and let these beats warm you up.

Tonight as part of my computer room reconfigure I brought down and moved the web and music server both to a UPS I installed and in 19" rack cabinet that is about 6' tall. I had installed the UPS in the cabinet a while ago.

I had to change the connector from a heavy duty lockable connector for standard computer rooms to a normal heavy duty 120v connector of the prong configuration found in most homes.

I have tested the UPS and it works fine, now when we have a brief hit or spike my systems and routers will withstand that without having to reboot or re-sync the music server software.

For a long outage this will at least allow a graceful shutdown but I haven't had a lengthy power outage in several years that I can remember.

Well let the beats commence to kicking out the various flavors as I start on the rest of the computer room. More on the move on my main site blog: http://www.dhoytt.com/mainblog/ .

The Snakeice House of Beats music stream is back up and playing the music from the '50s to the present with a heavy dose of hip-hop.

Doing some minor music server maintenance will be back a moment.

A nice mix of slow jams & mellow tunes with some hip-hop G' style love tunes for an hour or more.

Dropping a hard mix into the Internet Stream to fertilize the ethernets.
