Kashi Commodore

Kashi Commodore (born 1982) is a furry-fandom DJ, as well as a member of several other Furcadia-related groups.

Radio Projects

He had joined AllFurRadio in September 2009, initally as a forum administrator to assist with the reworking of their website. His role soon increased at the station and he quickly became a popular personality within the group. He soon rose to a technical manager within the station, but left in June 2010 after an inter-managerial dispute. He was soon the focus of some negative attention over the circumstances of his departure.

Since then, he has gone on to help establish a newly formed station, FurFusion Radio, where he again fulfils a technical and development role. His main work there involves the production and maintenance of the website and server facilities, as well as supervision of the general operations and security of the station. This new role places him back in the company of many former members of AllFurRadio.

His persona on the air is of a criminal 'hacker' who constantly seeks to disrupt and upset the other DJ's, and interrupt usual programming to broadcast a 'pirate' rockshow. He was usually the focus of negative attention from the other DJ's on-air. This had resulted in some memorable moments, such as an occasion where he 'sold' the other DJ's at a slave auction on-air to raise money for himself. (In truth, a fund raising effort on behalf of the station as a whole.)

Shows and Broadcasts

The format of his shows is usually Rock and Alternative Music, including Metal, Punk and other 'heavy' music, although he has been known to be quite ecletic in tastes at times. When hosting special events or one-off broadcasts, this varies much more, including popular music, RnB and dance/trance. He is commonly held as, and refered to as a Rock DJ however.

As of November 2010, he has not resumed his shows, although he has publically stated that he will do so in the near future.

Roleplaying

Kashi Commodore participates in several online communities, both within the fandom and beyond it. He is an avid Furcadia player, having been in the community since at least 1999. A former Dream owner and creator, he is well known amougst much of the games inhabitants. He is also known to have several alternate characters. He is also part of the SecondLife community as of late, using the alternate character 'Reach Ravenheart'.

Unusually, his adopted appearance is humanoid in nature, despite his furry connections and projects. He had previously stated this was by accident and it is unfeasible to alter things as they stand. He has therefore been loosed defined as Otherkin by other members of the fandom.

Personal Life

Kashi Commodore is British, born in Scotland and living in the [[Wikipedia:West Midlands|West Midlands]. Kashi tends to keep a lot of his personal life rather private, however it is known that he is romantically involved with another member of the fandom. Outside of the community, he is known to be an avid Quake and Halo player, and a fan of Retro-Gaming. He is a qualified computer programmer and web designer, and is also known by his nickname 'Shaki' (from which his persona name was derived).

Other Fandom Activities

He is also a member of the Furcadia 'Beekin Guardians', a volunteer group organised by Furcadia's owners and staff, whom oversee enforcement of the games rules and user policies. [1]
