ארכיון גַּלֵי זחל • Radio Stalin Archives

During the years 2018-2020, Nimrod Kerrett had a live radio station via a TOR hidden service that was broadcasting music from Nimrod's Mixxx setup. There was even a chat that enabled listeners to make requests (including dedications on the mic).

In 2019, there was an article about the station at the Hebrew site All lies, and the site started embedding a player of a clearnet relay of the station (thanks to Boaz Rimmer for providing the server for this). Accessibility via clearnet (accompanied by the Hebrew catch phrase "אפשר גם בלי תור") has increased the audience from extremely small to very small, and has enabled a series of weekly shows where guests would play music they liked and talk about it (thanks to Neora Shem for suggesting the format and her help in production of the programs).

Then came the Covid-19 pandemic, and not only did it become complicated to physically meet with the guests, but also the idea of broadcasting from home became commonplace. In the end, the machine running the radio station stopped working (and sadly, there was no backup to that content). All that remains from that era is the archive of the weekly shows below. Hope you enjoy it.
