  • Weekly Airwave - My Sweet & Sour Room - Icicle
    Apr 12 2019

    Script

    Hi and welcome to Alternative Airwaves - I'm your host Steve, bringing you the best in Creative Commons music. This is the Weekly Airwave: one track with some information about the song or the artist.

    This week's track: My Sweet and Sour Room by Icicle. This is an instrumental track by Montreal artist Icicle; I found this by looking at similar artists to Lower Loveday from last week's episode. I don't normally pick out instrumental tracks, but I really liked the beat and instrument choice in this song. Icicle is actually Krassy Halatchev, and has Bulgarian origins. I think you can really hear some of his influences come through in this track. You can follow him on Jamendo or icicle dot club.

    Be sure to check out alternative airwaves dot com for more podcasts and music reviews. See you next time.

  • Weekly Airwave - You Could've Been My Queen - Lower Loveday
    Apr 5 2019

    Script Hi and welcome to Alternative Airwaves - I'm your host Steve, bringing you the best in Creative Commons music. This is the Weekly Airwave: one track with some information about the song or the artist.

    This week's track: You Could've Been My Queen by Lower Loveday. This great indie track brought me back to the early 2000's indie scene with great British bands like Arctic Monkeys, or The Fratellis. Lower Loveday is indeed a British group, and got their start in a school talent show. They've been all around the UK and the world, and are making some great music. Aside from this week's track I also recommend Is It Right, currently one of their more popular tracks on Jamendo. You can find them online at lower love day dot com.

  • Weekly Airwave - Problems - The DLX
    Mar 29 2019

    Script Hi and welcome to Alternative Airwaves - I'm your host Steve, bringing you the best in Creative Commons music. This is the Weekly Airwave: one track with some information about the song or the artist.

    This week's track: Problems by The DLX. Problems is an R&B-leaning pop track from American artist The DLX, based in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. No albums on Jamendo, but there are three singles you can check out. I liked this one for its simple beat and lyrics. Find out more about The DLX at the dlx dot net.
