 Presenter revealed: DJ twisty of ClanBase Radio
A regular listener uk ramdrop has taken time to sit down with one of ClanBase Radio presenters - pl DJ twisty. Read inside for the full interview!

DJ twisty
Hello twisty and welcome to the first interview of CB Radio! Can you please tell the people who don't know you something about yourself ?
Hey there xD
My name is Domi, I'm 27 years old, female from Poland and I've been a ClanBase Radio presenter for almost a year now I think ;P

So, when you're not at the decks, what other stuff are you doing, hobbies and other stuff etc ?
I listen to a lot of music obviously, party, spend time with my boyfriend, family and friends. :) I read, work, run, play the piano or study, cook, visit museums. :) And chat. :)

Ok, so, can you tell us, how you heard about CB Radio and how you became interested in it ?
A friend of mine who is very much into gaming was a regular in this network and he brought me here so that I can listen to Neur0's show on Fridays xD So I became a regular listener and later on I decided I wanna try the other side. :D

Cool, now when listening to your shows, you play quite alot of what the listener wants, what genres etc - but what about you, what genres of music do you like?
I love all genres to be honest ;-) From classical music to metal stuff. I guess my preferences are electronic things, pop and rock, some alternative ;) I always try to bring some less popular stuff on air which I think is sort of my job too.

So when you're actually on the air, do you find it tough or is it relatively easy for you to provide quality for listeners?
Hmm it's not a very easy task really :) I mean, sure everybody can have a look at my playlist, pick something they like and I will most likely play it for them. Which is what most of us always do, but everybody has their own taste, so do the DJs :) And like I said, I think the charm of a radio programme is that you have variety and you can also listen to things you probably would not come across on your own.

So our task is to provide music for everybody to be happy but also to introduce them with things they wouldn't listen otherwise, but we don't wanna scare them away. :D So no, it is not easy :-) But I think every DJ realizes that they cannot always win and the most important thing is not to get discouraged if something goes wrong. :P

Well everybody makes mistakes really. Now, you have 2 shows on CB Radio, why don't you tell us about them.
ClanBase TOP10 Chart
I'm not the only DJ airing twice a week xD But it's not really about me, I just wanted to have one own show where I can squeeze my personal style in, but then I thought this radio station needs a chart, and since nobody was doing that I decided to try and I think that it's working out pretty well. :)

So yea Twisted Sunday airs on Sunday evenings and that is usually things that inspire me + the listeners' choice. And on Wednesday evenings we have the ClanBase Radio Top 10 Chart. :)

Now, ClanBase as I'm sure you know is home to an online gaming community, with ladders and cups. Has the almighty twisty ever participated in any online gaming at all/on ClanBase?
Nope, never xD I'm here only for the music. I keep hearing from people that I should start gaming with them but haven't done that yet :P Maybe at some point in the future :)

Cool, back to your shows, do you treat them differentially? As in different styles of music for both, obviously for chart - you play chart songs, but inbetween chart songs, or is that more of your choice of music ?
I think because of my wide taste I have all sorts of listeners during my shows, people who like metal music tune in a lot but we also see fans of pop, 80's, electronic stuff so Twisted Sunday is a show where you can hear a lot of remote things. The chart show is 90% listeners' choice.

I try to introduce some new music to the listeners so during the chart show you can hear me play 2-3 new singles from all sorts of artist, as a sort of commercial break. :)

Yeah, I notice that when I tune in hehe. There is a feature that some of you DJ's have and that is "Callers" who call in on Skype, do enjoy talking to people during your show ?
Of course I do, it's always fun and a lot of laugh :D And you know that cause you're my regular caller :D We chat about everything and nothing really although I think I'll actually start asking some serious questions on air :P I've had this idea for some time now but haven't had much time to prepare it yet.

Okay, this part is about you, if there was no objection for any new ideas, would you change your show in any way ?
Not really, I always think of ways to improve things I do here but to be honest nobody ever told me how to run things, the staff is very friendly, helpful and open minded :) I don't feel like I'd like to change anything in particular.

Okay, that's all of my questions for now, are there any special shoutouts you'd like to make to listeners ?
Yes! ClanBase community you people are great :) This is a very friendly place where I feel very good so thank you for that and thanks for having me :P
