The Broken Cassette Player

By: Shred (Edward Jacobs)
  • Summary

  • It's a new music show (mostly) hosted by 20-year WBCN veteran dj Shred. We believe we need to keep moving forward with what we listen to and want to share our musical findings with as many folks as we possibly can, because we feel the bands we play should be more widely heard like it used to happen when a band was giving airplay on the local radio station. I come from that world and think we need to continue to push it for a bigger audience to enjoy and give these bands a lifeblood. Email us at teamshred@comcast.net for feedback. Thanks!

    86 is here for your ears to listen to 5 new songs by bands you likely haven't been exposed to before. We have new songs by Japandroids, Meteor Police, Latvian Radio, Hataalii and Madi Diaz. We can't possibly encourage you enough. 17:41 of listening time you would put to much worse use.

    Episode 85 is ready to roll out and have basically no one listen to 5 bands that you should be putting your ears on, but are far too busy with all that other important stuff you need to do for yourself to not be able to give us 16 minutes to hear the likes of Girlfriend with Baby Swag, The Dare, Vienna Vienna, Twenty-One Pilots and Katastro featuring The Maine. But you're too busy, concentrating on what you need to. I know these things can be all encompassing. I've lived through it all, believe me. Happy listening from former 20-year WBCN dj and 4-year WERS dj Shred, who wishes you good ongoings.

    We are pushing this thing out each week to small returns, which is a true shame, considering how all over the map new music travels these days to arrive at ears to hear good songs. We try to go for 5 good songs you should hear each week, but no one apparently cares about listening to anything that isn't smacking them in the face. All good. We carry on. 5 songs/bands you should hear: Jack Kays, Drook, Blackstarkids, Anna Shoemaker and Vundabar are all worthy of your minutes. 17:37 for you to energize your soul.
