Everything a station needs
Stop duct-taping five different services together. MakingWaves replaces your website builder, scheduling tool, DJ management system, and listener app provider.
Hosted website
A branded station site on your own domain or a makingwaves.live subdomain. Schedule, shows, DJ profiles — all updated automatically.
DJ portal
Your DJs sign up with a station code, get discounted subscriptions, and publish to your station's channels alongside their own.
Branded apps everywhere listeners are
Custom-branded iOS & Android apps, plus Alexa skill, Roku TV, Apple TV — your station on every screen and smart speaker in the house. Push notifications when a favourite DJ goes live.
OBS integration
Every DJ on your station gets a live overlay URL for OBS. Current track, show info, and station branding — updating in real time.
Show scheduling
Visual schedule grid. DJs claim slots, listeners see what's coming. Auto-publishes to your station site and apps.
Fan-out publishing
DJs publish mixes to their personal channels and your station's Mixcloud / YouTube simultaneously. One click, multiple destinations.
The features other station platforms make you pay 5 different vendors for.
Most "internet radio host" providers stop at a streaming server. We give you the full operating system for a modern station — the streaming, the apps, the schedule, the social posts, the playlists, all in one.
Listen on Alexa, Roku, Apple TV
"Alexa, play [your station]." Your own published Alexa skill. Native Roku channel for TVs. Apple TV app for the living-room crowd. Plus iOS + Android phone apps. We do the cert dance with each platform; you just upload your logo.
Spotify playlists, on autopilot
Every track played on-air auto-builds a Spotify playlist for your station — "Tracks we played this week", per-show playlists, the lot. New listener discovery channel that updates itself.
Audio and video streaming
Push to Icecast for audio listeners. Push the same set as a live RTMP video feed to Twitch, YouTube Live or Mixcloud Live — with DJ webcam, overlay, the lot. One platform, both worlds.
Schedule that runs itself
DJs claim their slots in the portal — pre-recorded shows get queued and broadcast automatically. Vacant slots fill with curated playlists. No need for a 24/7 human running the desk.
Auto social posts for every show
The system generates show flyers from your branding + the DJ photo + the show metadata, then posts them to your station's Instagram, Facebook, Twitter/X and Threads on a schedule you set. Marketing on autopilot.
B2B sessions with remote DJs
Your DJs can run back-to-back live shows with guests anywhere in the world via MakingWaves Collab. Two-DJ live broadcasts on your station without flying anyone in.
