Жаңа MIX

At position 20 of 24, this is one of the stations in Kazakhstan that almost nobody arrives at by browsing. That is the case for having a page at all. A station reachable only by knowing its name is a station most directories lose.

Language and country do not match up the obvious way here. Жаңа MIX transmits from Kazakhstan, where Kazakh leads the listing, and broadcasts in English, which seven of the country's stations use.

Where else English is on air, according to the same snapshot: mostly United States, United Arab Emirates and United Kingdom. The shelf lists all 5,984 of them together, which is the view a country hub cannot give.

Жаңа MIX is the only station in Kazakhstan whose first tag is dj remix, out of 24 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in Kazakhstan does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only dj remix station.

320 kbps against Kazakhstan's median of 128. Streams at this rate are the ones worth finding a good pair of headphones for, and they are uncommon: 74% of the country's stations reach 128 kbps at all.
