We are working on updating the radio right now. We are going to take it from 150 tracks to hundreds and hundreds, so feel free to keep checking back to see how the site gets bigger and bigger. Keep in mind that we are 3 days old right now and that this site, despite its depth at the moment, is only in its early stages. When you click on the radio in the top right corner of the homepage, you will be able to choose a show from the “Show Guide,” URBAN is the “hip hop, rock, reggea, folk, and electronic” shows. OTHER is pretty much everything else, including, “sephardic, klezmer, jazz, and avante.” We hope that you enjoy all of the features of this site. Please feel free to comment on this post or shoot us an email (info@shemspeed.com), so we can keep bringin’ the funk.
peace,el capitan
