If you know of very interesting radio stations broadcasting DJ sets or live band appearances that are not in the list, do not hesitate to add it.

EDM Radio Stations around the World go in here. Although a lot of radio stations exist worldwide, only those belonging to the western/eastern civilizations are considered in here as the DJ set phenomenon is not necessarily widespread in countries such as India or Indonesia. Apart from that, the radio listings do not show that many radios from Japan, Korea and China (chinese, japanese and korean members of TMB - please add your radios!).

* Not all radio stations broadcasting DJ sets are suitable for TheMixingBowl.org as they do not meet the minimum quality requirements to allow their sets being uploaded to TheMixingBowl. This applies mainly to Internet-based radio stations as most of them are broadcasting nuked sets of low quality (sets that would be available elsewhere in much higher quality). A whitelist for high-quality internet-based stations broadcasting original DJ-sets will be provided below.

* Special care needs to be taken for radio stations broadcasting digital signals as the bitrate might be very low. Minimum acceptable bitrates for digital broadcasts need to be taken into account.

Okay, we do not need to discuss the quality of analogue broadcasts as everyone can easily distinguish a noisy broadcast from an excellent quality broadcast but when is a digital broadcast ''transparent'' or ''near-tranparent''? One has to know, that all digital formats used to broadcast music are lossy and do not contain all the original audio information. Lossless digital broadcasts do not exist up to now. The quality of a digital broadcast is determined by two values both together, the bitrate and the frequency. Transparency means that the human ear cannot distinguish the broadcasted signal from the original high quality music set.

By looking at all available radio stations one will easily find out that a broadcast of transparent audio data does not exist. Most are not even near-transparent. '''It is therefore recommended to listen to analogue broadcasts, where possible, especially when transmitted by cable or satellite. The same applies for recordings of audio broadcasts that are going to be uploaded to [http://themixingbowl.org/ TheMixingBowl]'''

List of radio stations. Entries for ''digital radio'' and ''internet stream'' are only shown, if the digital audio data are of good quality and considered suitable for TMB. For OGG and AAC+ the bitrate needs to be 64kbps or higher, for all other formats the bitrate needs to be 112kbps or higher. Only the digital formats providing the highest quality and width for potential listeners is shown.

For available terrestrial and satellite digital broadcasts (all possible [[MP2]]-based DVB/DAB varieties) and internet streams ([[MP3]], [[AAC|AAC+]] and others), only the sources with the highest freely accessible bitrates are given - DVB is here typically slightly better than DAB broadcasts at the same bitrate. Some entries are in part color-coded. Cells with a <span style="color:#00FF00">green background color</span> indicate broadcasts in exceptionally high quality - use this source if you want to record shows! Cells with a <span style="color:#ff0000">red background color</span> should be avoided - low quality!!

Minimum acceptable bitrates for decent quality for the [[MP3]] and [[MP2]] formats (DAB, DVB-S (SkyDigital), DVB-T (Freeview), Internet broadcasts) are 128kbit/s, for [[AAC|AAC+]] and [[Ogg Vorbis|OGG]] consider at least 64kbit/s. Be careful with 128kbit/s MP2/MP3 broadcasts, the quality might be quite bad at times.
