Mixiworld was created on 12th February 2006 by Michael Fawcett (DJ Scoop). Mixiworld first started off as a personal website for DJ Scoop to publish mixes he produced, so that anyone who enjoyed them could stay up-to-date on his work from one single website. As time went by DJ Scoop received many e-mails regarding his work and was asked why he didn't stream the content from his website so that his visitors could listen to tracks without having to download them to their computer. From this idea, DJ Scoop decided to broadcast his music on a regular, scheduled basis so that viewers could tune in live and listen to them played and mixed by DJ Scoop himself.
