2011 was a milestone year for FRISKY. It marked our 10-Year Anniversary and was our biggest year yet in terms of shows, listeners and reach. Stats on our website and the actual radio stream tend to be very different as most of our audience goes directly to the audio stream by ways of links from other sites, bookmarks etc. But lets look at some stats about you, the listener:
Overall, you came from 194 different regions from across the globe. The Top 5 countries are:
1. United States
2. Germany
3. Greece
4. Hungary
5. Russia
We even had visits from far away places like Fiji, Bhutan, even Greenland!
From inside the USA, the majority of you came from California. This isnt surprising as FRISKY was founded in San Francisco one fine morning (or night, we cant remember) in May 2001. So it remains strong in San Francisco and indeed California. Rounding up the Top 5 states in the US are:
1. California
2. New York
3. Florida
4. Texas
5. Illinois
As for cities, our top visitors came from the following cities:
1. Athens
2. Budapest
3. Moscow
4. Istanbul
5. Buenos Aires
Our TTSL, or Total Time Spent Listening, in 2011 totaled 2,665,989. That means that in 2011, you spent over of 2.6 million hours listening to FRISKY. Thats more than 306 years in total. We’d say thats time well spent!
So there you have it. Thats you, the FRISKY fan and listener, in 2011. We cant thank you enough for investing so much of your time and energy with us! We hope to continue to improve in 2012! More on that later.
In the next few days, I’ll be doing another post that tallies up some stats from the content and shows point of view soon: which shows were successful, which need some improvement and the all-important end of year Top 20 shows of 2011!
Rock on!

SOUND GARDEN - the exclusive show by Nick Warren returns to FRISKY next Tuesday, August 30 2011! This time around, the show features a first-ever live session! A new concept where Nick will for the first hour of the show be playing live as well as djing using keyboards, samples and softsynths to produce one-off sets. Again he will be concentrating on the more eclectic side of electronic music in the first part but adding sounds, textures, loops and effects. The second hour of the show will be squarely on the dancefloor as usual. Nick has been working on the new concept for a few weeks now, rehearsing and collecting the material and says, “I am really excited about this, pushing the boundaries of a DJ set especially in the more ambient field is very rewarding.”
WHEN : Tuesday August 30 2011 @ 09AM Los Angeles / 12PM New York / 05PM London (world times here)
WHERE :FRISKY!

WHY:Do we need a reason?
Here’s the Facebook Event to RSVP and share with your friends.
*What is ‘FRISKY Loves…’
It all began with Argentina. Back in 2005, we had an idea: Why not do a show solely on Argentina, where some of the most passionate friskyRadio DJs and fans come from. Indeed, the first friskyRadio Loves Argentina wasnt even called “friskyRadio Loves Argentina,” for even we didnt know what a unique concept and show we were pioneering. At the time, there was simply nothing like it anywhere: not on Internet Radio, not in FM radio. Like so many things on friskyRadio - we were the first to bring the ‘Country/Region’ showcase concept to the world. Since then have visited well over 30 countries or regions, from Russia to Finland, from INDIA to Greece and everything in between.
Many thanks to our friends at SQProject for making this happen! Check out their site here.
