Welcome to 
24 x 7  Chromatic Radio!
sort of :o)

   You, as a professional Chromatic player, were directed here by invitation. (you didn't find your way here by chance :o) Those of you who know about SlideMeister, know its all about the Chromatic harmonica, its exposure and promotion.  If you don't already know about the owner of the site,  just spend some time reading "FAQS 'N STUFF" above . What SlideMeister has endeavored to do since its inception back in 1999, was to bring well deserved (positive) world-wide attention to the Chromatic Harmonica. 

   Here's where we can help each other accomplish that. Everyone knows, there are more than enough amateur players on YouTube; I'm proposing a channel where folks can go, and hear the world's best (and only the best) Chromatic players 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week. While not really a radio station, it will  play a random, mixed variety, just as a radio station would. This is subject to change as we get more participation, like separate programs for different genres; Jazz, classical, standards, etc.  There are a number of ways we can do this, but here are the basics on how the site will work: 

1. YOU gain worldwide exposure and promote yourself as a musician.
2. YOU gain some extra traffic driven to your website.
3. YOU market your CD's and MP3 downloads and any other products you may have.
4. We both Help promote and "expose" the Chromatic harmonica.
5. We both help demonstrate that the Chromatic is a legitimate instrument, and not a toy.
6. We both help show the world that some harmonicas are good for stuff besides "Oh Susanna" and the Blues.


Participants will also be given the opportunity to be featured on this website's homepage and listed in the Featured Player Archives.
