TEH MEWSIKS, LET ME SHOW U THEM.

Two things to talk about on the docket. CHARTattack & Chill, Bro.

CHARTattack.com just revamped their site in a number of big ways, and if you haven’t heard of this awesome music site, then it’s the perfect chance to get on board. New content, new voices, and new music. It’s a Toronto-based website focusing on independent and alternative music from the local scene and internationally. CHART started as a Canadian music magazine back in the 90’s and has since moved into the Internet to focus on a specific demographic: us. It’s focus has always been campus radio, which meant students, which means that its music that’s important to us that we want to hear about. 

I love music. I’m sure you love music. If you like the music I like, then you should check out this website. The Pitchforks and the SPINs may be the bigger boys, but if you’re from the GTA, and you want some people who show you music like it is, participate as much as you do, and just like to share with others, I’d go with these guys. Rock, hip-hop, electronic—it’s all there. And CHARTattack wants you to be a part of it, Canada or abroad. So like them on Facebook, and check the site.

Changing topics, there’s also Chill, Bro.

I’ve been doing internet campus radio with SPIRITlive.net for three semesters now, and done a number of shows. Different Levels Productions Co-Founder and buddy of mine Issa Shah tells me:

“You’re like the Orson Welles of SPIRITlive.”

Which I do think I’m going to be using for a while. But I digress, this year, Joey Ferguson and I teamed up to create a show that would have a pretty distinct focus, that would let me share some of my music taste to interested ears, and just plain have some fun. And oh, have we.

Chill, Bro. is a show that we developed for a specific purpose: to calm everyone down. Since this is radio for our fellow Radio & Television Arts students, we want to share music that will have that effect. Calming, collected, soothing—you name it, just as long as it’s chill. If you’re a student and your stressed, this is the show to listen to.

If you want more info, check us out on Facebook, and follow us on Tumblr.

Chill, Bro airs on SPIRITlive.net every Tuesday from 4-5pm. If you can’t catch that, we have archives of every episode. Listen in below.

So, there some new music endeavours to subscribe to! If you want new music, just holler at any of these two places, and your bound to find it. Happy music-ing!
