Why we care about Community Radio.
There’s a tremendous amount to be said for remaining impartial, unbiased and ultimately open to human expression, no matter the size of the listener base. Commercial radio tends to lack some or all of these attributes, & have far more frequent and lengthy portions of air-time dedicated to advertising.
We believe that looking after Australian communities and the radio stations that keep them connected isn’t a negotiable.

If you’re just getting started with SHOUTcast Internet Radio as more of a hobby, you’re probably best off leveraging AutoDJ to make playlists from your uploaded content, take requests online, etc. This option suits a wide range of hobbyist station owners who don’t already have a Radio software stack in-place.
- Upload Files via FTP
- Make Playlists online 24/7
- Take requests from listeners
- Check listener stats/locations/etc
- Scale-up your station as it ramps up
- Or, use for Emergency Content (WAN down)
Relaying your Station:
SHOUTcast / Icecast
Established station? Odds are you’ll want to relay through us, which is easily done via a range of hardware and/or software options at your end. We have recommended configurations and can also assist with getting bespoke platforms connected with us via the SHOUTcast DNAS v2 system.
- Dell Servers in Sydney Data Centre
- Redundant Optical Fibre Network
- View Stats & Reporting 24/7
- Add MP3 & AAC+ Streams

Station Management available online 24/7
You’re able to log-in to Media Control Panel 24/7 to manage all aspects of your Internet Radio broadcast. Separately, you are given log-in credentials for the service (ie. Icecast or SHOUTcast) that your station runs atop of. 🙂
What this means is total flexibility in both main-stream/normal config options as well as more advanced configurations, depending on what sort of technical requirements your station has. For instance, out of the box and without having to modify anything, we support auto-changing multi-WAN.
For instance, you could have AutoDJ users acting as a redundancy router:
- Primary WAN (backup: Secondary WAN)
- Secondary WAN (backup: File Uploads)
- File Uploads (backup: Not Set as N/A)
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
Will the SHOUTcast Australia team help us migrate over?
Yes, of course! This is paramount to ensuring you’re able to sit back without worry. We’re here to help your Radio Station move your Internet Radio Streaming to us, even if it’s your first time leveraging Icecast or SHOUTcast at all.
Do you offer any kind of free trial to show our Board?
We understand that it can be difficult to convey the value of de-stressing your Station’s internet connection, and we’re happy to offer you a Trial Service if you email us and explain what’s happening for you – no problems at all, and no card required.
If we need anything bespoke, can it be deployed for us?
Yes! We support both custom/bespoke Radio Hosting as well as stopgap/short-term to cover events and other similar usage.
Please get in touch with our team to discuss your requirements and map out how to do it so we can design the best solution possible.
We need auto-switching Internet Connections behind us!
That’s doable via AutoDJ users or mount-points, depending on your situation, and is included in the regular plans that we offer.
Make your station work for you, so your listeners can count on you 24/7.
