Netstockfest Concept:
Interactive methods and devices are allowing new ways for performers to
reach audiences across the world, bringing live performances to a
global audience.
The first Netstock festival was a joint idea by the minds behind the
netlabels OpenLab Records, and maetrixsolution. Between Friday 18th
March to Sunday 20th March 2005, we will bring you almost 60 hours of
non-stop netaudio music from live performances and DJ's from many
different netlabels across the globe.
Who are we looking for?
We are looking for like-minded performers and DJ's to participate in
this netaudio festival, as well as people to help out with relaying the
streams.
So anyone, whether netlabel, performer, radio, magazine, ISP's etc,
would like to help in making Netstock 2005 a thing to remember, and a
festival to look out for in future years, then please don't hesitate to
contact us on the Discussion Board here or on OpenLab Records.
After we have a certain number of acts confrmed for the festival,
RochieBones (Head of Co-ordination) shall be scheduling the event, and
the offcial line up shall be confirmed in the coming months.

genres such as Chill-out, Ambient, Electronica, Dub, Drum and Bass,

Technical aspects:
For Netstock 2005, we will be using the open source broadcasting
IceCast server.
Artists will connect to the main Icecast server and radios will relay
the broadcasting.
A full tutorial for IceCast on how to set up and get broadcasting will
be announced soon.
Icecast is a streaming media server which currently supports ogg vorbis
and mp3 audio streams. it can be used to create an internet radio
station or a privately running jukebox and many things in between. it
is very versatile in that new formats can be added relatively easily
and supports open standards for communication and interaction.
Llibshout is a library for communicating with and sending data to an
icecast server. It handles the socket connection, the timing of the
data, and prevents bad data from getting to the icecast server. Icecast
is being developed on linux and windows, and is being tested with major
unices.
Server hosting:
The main broadcasting server (the central server) will be hosted at
openlab records. The central server will relay on all the «slave»
servers.
The slave servers will be hosted at rackspace.com (serverfarm in
london). the clients (acts and artists, listeners) will connect to the
slaves in london.
Technical contacts:
Please contact blu_aqua for possible bandwith candidates or any
technical questions: infoATbluaquaDOTit or visit bluaqua.it
