Internet Radio Royalties and WOXY
2007-03-14 16:42:09
Lots of chatter around the web in the past couple of weeks regarding the new internet radio royalty rate hike. The Wall Street Journal profiled our very own WOXY with an article today, I’ll link to the article here and provide some interesting quotes as well. “The annual cost of running WOXY could more than double to around $2 million, far exceeding the station’s $500,000 to $1 million in annual revenue. The board’s decision could still be appealed or rescinded by Congress, but WOXY manager Bryan Jay Miller says, “I don’t see the situation getting any better.” Interesting to see it in black and white, the numbers are not to be taken lightly…. “Mr. Nguyen doesn’t yet have a solution for WOXY, which currently has about 100,000 unique listeners monthly. He says he may restrict the ability to create songlists to users who are actually buying and selling CDs on Lala. He is also considering altering his CD-selling model so that li

LCD Soundsystem - Sound of Silver + Tour Dates
2007-03-15 15:40:43
The second full length album from Sound system.htm">LCD Soundsystem , “Sound Of Silver ”, hits shelves next week on March 20th and from all indications, this one is already being touted as better than the debut disc from the band. I’ve been spinning the new one for awhile now, and I would agree that it’s an obvious step up for James Murphy and the crew. And now, they have also just released a slew of spring tour dates. Here is a tune from the album to get you started as well as the tour dates. LCD Soundsystem - North American Scum 3/30 New York, NY Bowery Ballroom 3/31 New York, NY Bowery Ballroom 4/28 Indio, CA Coachella 4/30 San Francisco, CA Mezzanine 5/02 Seattle, WA Showbox 5/03 Vancouver, BC Commodore Ballroom 5/06 Chicago, IL

Cincinnati Concert Reminder - Ratatat Tonight @ Southgate
2007-03-19 13:26:37
So, the SXSW week is over, and I know I have way more energy now than those that attended the festival and had an amazing time. I hope everyone enjoyed audio coverage from Mike, I thought it was fun. I’m starting off this Monday morning with a reminder that Ratatat is at the Southgate House tonight, it’s really a show you should make a point to be at. The most recent album from them, Classics, is an absolute gem. So, be sure to head down to Newport tonight if you are in the area and take in what should be a great show. It’s a 10$ show if you buy in advance on the SG website, and it’s 12$ at the door. The show should go off around 10pm.

Voxtrot - Blood Red Blood
2007-03-20 17:24:52
The first full length from the Austin boys better known as Voxtrot is due out May 22nd, and it’s already causing a commotion. The band, who released no less than three EPs last year, mostly to blogger loving and gushing. The jury is still out on the full length, but I will say that I’m really enjoying this cut more than the one that has been circulating around so far. The song, Blood Red Blood, has all the elements that have people excited about this record, but with some crazy horns throughout the song as well. But, overall, Ramesh’s vocals soar and hit the mark here. Voxtrot - Blood Red Blood Thanks To Our Sponsor: Domain Name Register from Loudsign Technorati Tags: Voxtrot, blogger


New Robbers On High Street - Grand Animals
2007-03-22 17:55:58
It’s not due to hit shelves till June, so I was a bit surprised to see the new full length from Robbers On Street .htm">High Street hit my mailbox this week. Even so, after 3 times through, it’s a bit of an early dissapointment. The strongest tracks so far are the ones you are already familiar with. “The Fatalist” and “Married Young” from the late 06 EP. And “Crown Victoria”, which has been a live standby from the band for awhile now. The jury remains out on this one, as it should, since we are still 3 months from a street date. And in the interest of not getting too ahead of ourselves, here is a track from “Grand Animals ” for your streaming enjoyment.

2007-03-22 14:25:17
Don’t forget to head over to The Comet tonight in the Northside area of Cincinnati to catch one of the best bands out of Lexington, The Scourge of The Sea. The band is still busy touring their album, “Make Me Armored”, which is an excellent disc. So head on out to the Comet tonight for a free show that is very much worth your time. Here is the session they did at WOXY last fall….. The Scourge Of The Sea - Live On WOXY Technorati Tags: Cincinnati, The Scourge of The Sea.

Backyard Tire Fire - Vagabonds and Hooligans
2007-03-23 16:39:02
Out of the heart of the midwest, in Bloomington, Illinois comes Backyard Tire Fire. Not only does the name of the band suggest the sound you may hear, but it’s midwest roots also lean towards their DNA, which is excellent alt-country. The debut album from the three piece, Vagabonds and Hooligans is really right up my alley. I can see the Wilco comparisons, but I tend to think they are more in the Uncle Tupelo mold. Especially when after the great title cut, the band changes lead vocals on track three, “Green Eyed Soul” and makes me feel like it’s a switch from Tweedy to Farrar. High praise for another alt-country rock band out of Illinois, but it’s hard for me not to make the comparison. The band has already shared the stage with the likes of The Slip, and Jay Bennett, and you can see in the dates below that they will continue to add to that impressive list. BTF will be doing a date here in the Cincy area as well, on April 18th @ The Southgate House.

M Ward - Duet for Guitars #2 To Be Re-Released
2007-03-28 15:41:49
Just got some great news from Merge Records that an M Ward gem will see a re-release this July. Duet For Guitars #2 is the foundation for Matt’s solo career and is an album all M Ward fans should have a copy of. However, it’s increasingly difficult to find since it’s original release in 2000 so it’s great to see Merge doing a re-issue. In other M Ward news, he looks to have some new material slated for this fall as well, as the announcement of a new digital single, called “Early Morning Rain” will see a release in November.  Matt is also on the road currently with Norah Jones.
