For you listeners in the United States who have been missing Vinyl Voyage Radio : Yes, it's true, we have opened another stream from Canada exclusively for the United States! This is another stream that is licensed through SOCAN. How long this stream will be open, I am not sure. But you can now listen again. This stream is available on this website . It is also available if you listen on TuneIn . Or, on Longtail  (this is a great site. Check it out!) If you listen on the mobile app, it should work as well. All other sources will be our original stream, and can be listened to on all over the world. This new stream is exclusively for our U.S. listeners. Enjoy!

On the next episode of Blue Suede Connection, Dan and TL play something for everybody! That's right! They've got rock 'n roll Elvis! Country Elvis! Gospel Elvis! Love song Elvis! Listen today at 4pm, Eastern (-5 UTC). Blue Suede Connection can be heard at the following times:

Yes, our stream from Canada is now blocked for listeners in the United States. But can you still listen in the United States? Yes. And it's pretty easy. The key to listening is using a VPN (Virtual Private Network). Using a VPN allows you to route your IP address through another server in another country, "tricking" the internet into thinking you are in another location. In other words, this is good not just for listening to Vinyl Voyage Radio, but it also extends your privacy from advertisers and other entities that may be tracking what you do on the internet. I use Windscribe VPN. The free version has 10 gigs of data a month. If you tweet that you are using Windscribe , they'll give you 5 gigs more. That's a pretty good deal. Plus, if you use it to just stream Vinyl Voyage Radio for a few hours a day, you're good for the month. (If you want more, they offer several plans that are really affordable. Plus, they are out of Canada. So: win-win!) The vid...

View this post on Instagram Starting January 12, Vinyl Voyage will be blocked in the United States. This is due to the fact that the United States no longer has blanket royalty rates specific to small micro broadcasters. Although we are located in Canada and pay royalties through SOCAN (The Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada) the royalties collection agency in the United States called #SoundExchange is currently threatening companies providing radio streams from other countries. In response, these companies, including the Vinyl Voyage hostiing company, Torontocast, has no option but to block streams to the United States. For US listeners, this will have a snowball effect, limiting choice and options for consumers. We are working on alternatives. But, for now, the Vinyl Voyage will be blocked in the United States.

We have a new episode of Adventures in Vinyl this month! This is The Elite, a K-Tel compilation charit album released in 1981. New episodes of Adventures in Vinyl can now be heard on the first weekends and the last weekends of the month at 12:30pm (central) on Saturday and 4pm (central) on Sunday. Repeat episodes can be heard on the other weekends.

We have been broadcasting in the United States since 2011.  Over the years, it has been getting harder and harder. In 2016, the special royalty rates that had been established for microbroadcasters, like myself, expired. As a result, rates in the United States became exorbitant. We were forced to move our stream to Canada in 2016. In Canada, we pay royalties at a microbroadcaster rate to SOCAN (the Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada). However, now SoundExchange, the royalty/copyright enforcement agency in the United States, is no longer honoring reciprocal deals with professional rights organizations (PROs) in other countries. Today, Soundexchange requires that all people who stream music, whether it is a commercial station or not, needs to pay the same amount as Amazon, Apple, Spotify, Pandora and Google, regardless of the country from where they stream and regardless of the purpose of the music. We don't broadcast Vinyl Voyage radio to make a profi...
