Testing out a new liveblog app, so follow this thread as throughout today I am going to give you insight into how I put together out our new music shows each week (and may ramble off on some related tangents too)
Testing out a new liveblog app, so follow this thread as throughout today I am going to give you insight into how I put together out our new music shows each week (and may ramble off on some related tangents too)
Among our special radio shows each week are two new music shows:
BlowUpRadio.com Presents New NJ Music - Monday @ 7pm ET
with replays Tuesday @ 6pm ET, Wednesday @ 9am ET, Thursday @ 3pm ET, & Friday @ 12:30pm ET
and
Lazlo's Den Presents New Music - Tuesday @ 7pm ET
with replays Wednesday @ 10am ET, Thursday @ 4pm ET, & Friday @ 1:30pm ET
The former is all about new NJ music, the latter is all about new music from outside the Garden State.
Every day at BlowUpRadio.com we get new music, and I listen to somewhere between 50 & 100 new releases every week, some weeks even more.
The music comes via the artist themselves sending it to me, or a PR person sending it to me. I also look on sites like Bandcamp for new music tagged #NJ or #NewJersey (though I have found Bandcamp's search often misses new releases with those tags).
Mirlo just announced it has added a location search feature, although I've only had partial success with doing a "cold" search. I think if you bookmark this page and just refresh it, that should work. Not many NJ artists with music there at the time, though. Just something to keep in mind.
