You may notice the “genre” tag in The Overnightscape Underground files is not “Podcast” - it’s “New Time Radio”. This project represents a lot of new ideas about Internet radio, and it is certainly distinctly different from podcasting in a number of ways.
The Overnightscape Underground is a “virtual broadcast” - a lot of audio you can download all at once, not via RSS but in one big ZIP file. Load it onto your computer or MP3, and explore the broadcast… it’s easy because the content is broken up into multiple tracks.
I’ll be elaborating more on these ideas, but I just wanted to let everyone know this is a new and different thing.

Go to the Downloads page to get the updated 24-hour, lo-fi mono MP3 file. In the lyrics tag you will find brief descriptions of all the tracks.
This file supercedes the preview version of the 24-hour file, and is the same except for a few tracks where the audio was enhanced, but not changed.

Here is a zip file containing all 75 tracks in Day 1, plus a text file with all the descriptions:
onsug_day_01_tracks_128k.zip
This file is kind of big - 1.26 GB
Once you download it, just unzip it and use it like any other album in MP3. Just this one has 75 tracks and is 24 hours long.
Let me know if this works for you - it’s the first time I’ve released a file so large.

Wow… it’s been a long road getting here, but Day 1 is finally released!
(I had to “back date” all the track posts so they come up in the right order on the feed.)
