stepmaster5000 Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 Aberdeen University launched an internet radio station last week and has been getting a few good shows going. One of them is called Death from Exposure. We're a few people really interested in eclectic independent music from the northern countries of Scotland and Canada. Tune in and hopefully you'll find some new and exciting things, some gems, and maybe some things that will scare you. You can listen at Aberdeen Student Radio between 5 and 7 on Wednesday afternoons. Last week we played an introductory selection of stuff from the general music scene including: Wolf Parade, King Creosote, Julie Dorion and the Wooden Stars, The Delgados, Destroyer, My Latest Novel, The Hidden Cameras, and many more. And if anyone out there from the uni wants to get involved it is really easy, just go to the website and drop ASR an email - they will get you set up.

historicrocker Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 There are quite a few shows that have been quite interesting. It's certainly going to be eclectic. I have a 1pm- 3pm slot on Thursday and it's quite eclectic. I can't say I play anything in particular, mostly Frank Sinatra and some string-related pop bands. But if you are interested me and my friend have a lot of fun doing it even if we do ramble a little. We also do (reasonable) requests.

RF Scott Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 I sent them two emails asking for a show, and they didn't get back to me. Which is a shame, as I have a really good taste in music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarmaTsunami Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 It's an electronic/alternative show...the playlist I've picked out includes Gui Boratto, Silkworm, Jolie Holland and Ellen Allien & Apparat. Bryn's got some really good folky stuff mixed in with Aphex Twin and Isolee to play. Should be good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RF Scott Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 There's not much call for a "Pavement Hour" on any station, no matter how small. It's not my fault you can't handle 90s indie rock!For the record, if Mr.Aberdeen Student Radio is reading, I wouldn't just be playing Pavement.

Camie Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 The guy in charge of it is in my Management class. Was tempted to get involved but not enough time to do something like that just now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 Had a wee listen to this show tonight. Loving the music! Wasn't sure about all the links between Beckett/Elliot/Court Poetry and Contemporary music...it's there for sure, but I reckon my brain was a little done in from reading Aristotle/Auerbach/George Eliot all day..Music was grand!

KarmaTsunami Posted October 8, 2007 Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 Had my first slot. Nerve-wracking...but felt fine about half an hour in. Great fun! Can't wait til next week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
