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!

    Nov 5 2024

    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.

    It is here: episode 83 of the BCN Shred Podcast, 5 new songs (all by girls this week) for you to stuff into those crusting up ears of yours: Biig Piig, Bishop Briggs, Caroline Kingsbury, St. Vincent and Saya Gray are all super worthy of you hearing.

    This podcast is hosted by 20-year WBCN and 4-year WERS "Niteklub" dj Shred in his down time for you to experience something outside of what you may normally be listening to. Most of you are far too stuffed into your own world though. 18:15 for you to think about good stuff.

    episode 82 of BCN Shred Podcast is upon you, enabling you to hear 5 new bands your ears wouldn't likely fall upon, but you'll be glad they did, as these are some of the best who make music currently and deserve your attention. We are Shred, we did radio for some 20 years at WBCN and was local music director there for 13 of those years, but fool followers miss it. We hope you like what you hear and spread the word of Balu Brigade, The Blue Stones, Wilderado, Bizzy and Maud LaTour, all should be heard.
