In 2011, I embarked on a multi-faceted journey, blending UI design, coding, and DJing skills with the inception of UNDRGRNDRadio.com. Beginning with a simple web radio app and chatroom, I transformed weekends into live streaming sessions, sharing DJ sets and local events with a growing community. Witnessing around 20 people live streaming at once fueled the passion for experimentation.

A simple web radio player I created to livestream me DJing at home over the weekends or local shows I would attend. A later version included a chatroom.

As the journey evolved, I delved into the conceptual realm of a web application designed to accompany practicing DJs. The visionary concept involved DJs inputting the currently playing song, and the application suggesting mix-compatible tracks based on user ratings. Although this idea didn’t materialize beyond the conceptual stage, UNDRGRNDRadio.com remains a testament to the fusion of creativity, technology, and the joy of sharing music with a dedicated audience.
