Lost Shows

To All My Listeners,

My bad guys. I've not been delivering all that I've said I would. However, as my time at school comes to a close, I don't not see my show closing. I do not have any less passion for radio or for the music we support on my show. If they keep doing it I will. This week closes my second to last semester of college and I've been a little of a wreck. I have all the shows listed right here for download that I've missed. Also expect blogs about Diamonds Under Fire, Eva Natal, and constant updates about all the music I play on the show.

Helping Out The Community

In this economical crisis, it can be tougher for people more now than ever before. There are more homeless, more jobless, and more people that need help and are not getting it. We at Uncharted Waves believe that everyone deserves help on some levels, and so we are going out and doing something about it.

For the first time in it's first year of existence, Uncharted Waves and Chaos Promotions are hosting a benefit concert towards the end of September. This concert will represent our way of reaching out to people on a personal level. Not only will there great live music, but there will also be a ton of free stuff, awesome raffles and door prizes, and hundreds of very interesting people to talk to.

This show will benefit a young man who is in debt with hospitals for major surgery and multiple tests. One year ago he went to the hospital and had major surgery to have his large intestine removed. He did not have health insurance. He went back the beginning of June with terrible pain in his stomach and most of his body. After multiple tests and no answers, he went back home to wait until the next pain attacks came about.


We want to help him out. Help him keep his head high and help pay those bills. There are five great bands/artists that have agreed to come and play this show, and we couldn't be any happier to have these five down. The bands are Beneath A Blackened Sky, Anna Yvette, Piercing Silence, General Money, and Earth Eatz Dog.

This is all just the tip of the iceberg. With these great musicians there will also be events going on all day. Many sponsors will be present at the show with giveaways and special raffles. It will be a great event, and a guaranteed awesome party time. The best part of it all, is that all proceeds are going towards paying off the hospital bills. So anything you get there, will be helping someone out.



More details will be released within the next two weeks. I wouldn't want to spoil all the surprises though...so be sure to stay tuned for the details that are released and then come down to the show.

Attention! General Money Is In



What all started off as a child looking for answers and acceptance, grew into a tremendous movement of emotions flowing lyrically from General Money. Hailing from New Hampshire, G-Money spits some of the freshest tracks out right now.

General Money started rapping at a young age, and he's not planning on stopping any time soon. "It's been a long road" he was telling me on the phone, "but all this hard work, working little by little, really pays off in the end". This has been nothing but true for the General. When he first made it into the studio to record his first mixtape in 2007, Money Call Mixtape Vol 1, tens of thousands of people flocked to download it for free. This mixtape was so successfull and popular that General Money had to get into gear to work on a full length studio recorded album. His time behind the mic was well spent, and the U.N. was concieved. At this point, General Money was collaborating with other hip-hop artists of his calibur. The U.N. features Mo Deezey and Will Kindler.

General Money hit the ground running after the U.N. dropped. It was time to go even bigger, and General Money knew that he needed to take more steps to continue getting recognized, so Crank Records hit the internet. After the first week of launching his website, CrankRecords.net, buzz was happening and traffic flooded in from all around. It didn't stop there. By using websites like Twitter, Myspace, General Money started to become an internet sensation.

All of this and he still doesn't stop. It's all about moving forward and getting done what needs to get for General Money. He and his bassist, Tod Angel, play live shows that often get sold out. He takes time to go to radio stations for interviews and meet and talk to the people that are rocking out to his beats.

What's General Money doing now? Currently he's back in the studio working on the next album. He had also taken the time out to come and show love to NY. General Money came onto the show for an interview, freestyle, and to just hang out. He is an indie artist making all the right moves with the right attitude to further progress his musical career and spread his music to the world.

He represents, and we respect that.

Awesome Song, Awesome Band


With all the music submissions we get, my Ipod is a fun little toy that is ever changing tunes. Occasionally there will be a song that I didn't get to really listen to in detail before it made it to the Ipod. One of those songs that just blew me away was 'Maybe Baby' by Gabriel the Marine.

Gabriel the Marine is a five piece indie rock band, hailing from right here on Long Island NY. You might have heard them before. They have been broadcasted as a feature on 92.3 Krock (RIP fm), played Bamboozle this year next to No Doubt, Taking Back Sunday and others, featured on Purevolume as a featured artists, and moved audiences all over.

The song 'Maybe Baby' rings so true; It is eerie, depressing, inspiring, and hopeful. The emotions that were brought forth were so moving, I had to play the song multiple times to sort them all out. They have a sound like none I've been fed before. The lyrics are capitivating and Michael's voice does the perfect job of capturing the emotion behind them.

The boys (Michael Desmond (Guitar, Vocals), Dylan Ebrahimian (Piano, Violin, Vocals), Robbie Hassett (Bass), Dominick D'Agostino (Guitar), and Tommy Davis (Drums)) are on tour right now with Asteria and A Love Like Pi through August and then will back in NY for a couple of shows.

With all the bands out there it's hard to find the ones you really enjoy. Gabriel the Marine it one to along with Coldplay, Dave Matthews and O.A.R.

To Izzy

One of the bands that we follow, His Mighty Robot, had just sent out an email with some sad news. Their former guitarist Izzy has been fighting brain cancer, and just recently lost that fight.

This is the email lead singer Soda sent out to all HMR family, friends and fans.


Well...

This past Wednesday I got the sad news that my friend and former bandmate Izzy had finally lost his long battle with brain cancer. Although this wasn't a shock the news was still very sad...Izzy was with me when I first started HMR back in 2003 and he played our very first show with me. We connected right away, he was a great guitar player and a very fast learner...and it's very sad that another very talented young man who was involved with HMR has been taken long before his time.

At Izzy's service this past Friday I had asked his family if I could honor him on our sites and send out an email in tribute to his memory and they were happy to know that I wanted to do this...and I know that some of you have been on this list since day one and were probably at that very first HMR show. And as always, this band has shared every intimate detail with everyone who has ever cared...

Izzy was one of the most harmless people I had ever met in my life. He loved music and toys and always seemed to be in a good mood. I had last seen him in March/April and if you didn't know that he was terminally ill...you'd have thought that he was a happy, healthy, well adjusted guy.

So...to my friend Izzy. I will miss you, and my heart goes out to your family and all of your friends.

Izzy will be honored on all of our websites as well. So stop by and send him some love long distance.

Yours.....always...
-soda.


RIP Izzy. You will be greatly missed.

Taking Concert Photography

Part of enjoying music is watching music. So for us, going to shows is a regular thing. We've written articles on the shows we've been to, all indie bands that have played locally at some club or bar. Over the course of these shows, we've been taking pictures of the bands, slowly learning how to take great pictures at these types of venues.

First off, you don't need a sick nasty SLR. I had been using a Canon Powershot SD1100, a point and click for most people. If you understand the connection between aperture, ISO, and shutter speed, you'll take awesome pictures. I'll talk more about these cameras in a minute though.

Don't be shy. Step up to the stage, make your way up there through the crowd. If you can get right next to the talent, you will have great angles and you'll be able to play with light a little more. Take a few pictures with flash on, you'll be able to capture a lot of expression and movement. Just keep in mind, if you want to capture more atmosphere in your photos, flash will kill all the lights in the room.

So take pictures with your flash off. If you are using a SLR with an extended flash on it, turn it away from the stage. This is where your ISOs and aperture matter the most. If you can capture pictures when the light is right, you can keep things pretty normal, ISO 400-800, with only a little extra exposure.

You will need to play with it. Practice at home in low lit areas and just take pictures on different settings. Just remember the exposure triangle.

If you don't have any equipment and you are interested in shopping around, I suggest these four cameras to start with looking. They are all under $600, just take a look at the used prices. These are all excellent cameras.

Metal Haven

I almost forgot how awesome Beery's is on Friday's and Satuday's. If you don't know, Mr Beery's (Bethpage NY) has live music every Friday and Saturday night, bringing a nice mix of metal, hardcore, jazz and soft rock. There's always something for everyone there.

This past weekend I went to check out the scene over there, and it was quite alive. The lineup of bands was Black Dawn, Single Spade, Soma, and Turrigenous. All the sets were great, rock was flowing out the doors all night.

The band that really blew me away was Turrigenous. I've been meaning to catch a show of theirs for a while, and when I saw they were playing at Beery's I knew I had to be there. If you've ever listened to Turrigenous, you know how intense their sound is. They bring that intesity fully to the stage. I've never seen a band more technically awesome than these guys. One word to discribe this metal would be....epic. Check them out, they make New York and LI proud!

So I'll be back again to Beery's really soon, I hope to see you there!

Partay!


105 Riv was the place to be on Saturday night. It was Anna Yvette & the Ohms' CD release party! It was such a good time, there were a lot of really great people there, all to congratulate and celebrate with Anna.

I felt very VIP walking into this joint. There was a door man letting people through a velvet rope, it was like walking into a place where everyone would know you. And it was a little like that. Everyone there was so nice. People were enjoying the open bar, talking and taking pictures; there was a lot going on in this cozy setting.

Anna, Louis (bass) and Vinny (drums) played a full set for everyone there. It was such an intimate setting, Louis was playing off of the stripper pole above everyone's heads and people sat all around the performance set up. It was a great show, they really know how to have a great time on stage. It's always awesome to see bands really get into their music, it brings out so much more of the emotion they are portraying through the sound as well as the visual.

It was a lot of fun, enjoy the pictures I took and check out their website to hear more about Anna Yvette and the Ohms!

NJ Brings the Fire

I was collaborating with Jordan Stargot of Blind Hero and Nifty Breed, when he brought a band to my attention. It was Dillinger Escape Plan. From watching Youtube videos about them anyone can see that their stage presentation and following is more than awesome.

The lineup was Her Chance To Dream, Heart of a Lion, Stray from the Path, Knife the Glitter, The Number 12 Looks Like You, and the Dillinger Escape Plan. I missed the first set with Her Chance to Dream, but the had demo cds! I popped it into my car's cd player and I really liked what I heard. These kids have a really good idea of how to play epic tracks. There's this one track called Killer Klowns that has a very eerie break down, and it really threw me back.

The other bands were pretty tight, but only Knife the Glitter and Dillinger stood out to me. Knife the Glitter is a three piece instrumental band, that is the weirdest band ever. It is important to have a stage presence, these guys just made it really weird. The bassist would constantly be on his tippy toes running around in a little circle, shaking his head more and more violently as the songs went on, throwing his hair out of it's little bun, getting very messy...all this every song.

His facial expressions were so weird too... check them out. The recorded stuff I think is better than live. I can't really say their music won me over, but I will never forget these guys.

Dillinger. Wow. After taking 30 minutes, if not more, to set up their set, Dillinger came out hard. I've seen youtube videos of the lead singer Greg Puciato walking out on the tops of people's heads within ten seconds of the show starting (Watch Video for this performance). It was great though. You could hear everything, they looked and sounded so professional. People were getting very riled up during their set, at least one fight had to be broken up by the bouncers, which usually means one person thought the other was getting too crazy. Hey folks, it's a hardcore metal show. You get run into and the such.

So I am super happy I got the chance to see such a legendary band such as Dillinger. I wish i had the chance to interview them, maybe one day soon UW will be be presented with such a chance.

Till next show!

There is a lot going on in this shirt, but the title is "Scarecrow". It is awesome how the scarecrow is neglecting his duties and is a total badass zombie hanging out with the crow. What a rebel sheesh. The art work is awesome on this shirt, it will be turning heads all over the place.

T - Shirt of the Week

If you have been listening to Uncharted Waves, you know we play tons of music that the big stations would never play, and probably never heard of. One band we spin that is in it's own category is The Dresden Dolls. This original caberet style band also brings us original tee shirt designs, including this one. Their art is a big part of the band. When you check out their website you'll see it is a piece of art within itself. This beauty can be yours for $15.

A Saturday To Remember


I got the call from our friends in Piercing Silence on Saturday afternoon to come out that night to the Zebra Lounge in Copiague for an awesome show that they were part of. I couldn't let the opportunity pass, and made my way out east for the night.

It was a night full of rock. You had Abigail Roots, Piercing Silence, Undetermined, Atomic Fury, and Erocktica in the lineup. It was a pretty decent crowd, many different ages in there. The bar was pretty big, they had two tenders on it the whole night. I didn't see anything about drink specials, but there were shot girls there introducing a new tequila, Lunazul. Everybody was having a good time, enjoying drinks and the live music. The Zebra Lounge has live music every Friday and Saturday, and is always a 21+ establishment.

The set up for the bands was pretty simple. The stage was pretty deep, plenty of room for the musicians to move around. The sound system was ok, it seemed as though all the amps were plugged into two main monitors, and all the levels were controlled out of them. There were some slip ups when it came to the audio quality, but nothing major enough to really stand out.

It was the music that was the best. Piercing Silence played a few new songs as well as older ones. The progression of their music is moving and powerful. They have yet to find a lead singer, but in my opinion they don't need one. The way their songs unfold allows the listener to dwell in emotions. Very talented musicians, check them out.

The headlining band was Erocktica. I had heard about them, about how their live shows can get very wild. This was very true. The pictures that I posted up from the show are only half of them. The other half is meant for mature audiences ONLY. The show they put on can be compared to a Kiss concert. It is interactive, meant to be an eye opener, full of props and meant to rile up the audience. They had one dancer at this show, but they have 9 in total. They were so much fun, and if you have an open mind about sex, definitely check them out.

May 15th, Mondo Porno at Arlene's Grocery (95 Stanton NYC). Erocktica's DVD release party, you want to be there. Come in a devil or angle costume for five dollars off cover price, making it $10. BE THERE!

PICTURES HERE!!!

T - Shirt of the week

The weather is getting hotter every day. It's time to strip off your heavy outer layers and let those tee's fly. You want to make sure that you have plenty of choices when picking out what to wear every day. So we bring you yet another shirt to add to your wardrobe.

This tee is brought to you by Between the Buried and Me, a hardcore metal band from North Carolina. Now, we are not quite sure what is being depicted, but the t-shirt really stood out. It looks like some sort of under water scene that includes a skull from some animal, devils, horses, some people and a mermaid. Yea, it's like that. None the less, this shirt is killer. There are rays of colors shooting throughout the background. The band's name looks like it was written with fresh ink.

Guaranteed head turner for only $13. Get it HERE.

Push Play Doing All the Right Stuff

As Bamboozle comes around the corner, everybody should get ready to make decisions on what stages to go to and what bands to see. You're going to recognize a lot of bands, including No Doubt, Fall Out Boy, Third Eye Blind, and so many more.

You should go and check out Long Island's very own Push Play. At the Kazoozle stage. At 1:30 in the afternoon, Saturday. And then again on Sunday, at 5:10. They will also be playing the HoodWink Festival, performing the music of MUSE. This is a band that has been working their way to the top, headlining tours, signing with Jason Morey (Miley Cirus's manager), being in print publications such as Newsday, the New York Times, Popstar, M*Teen...just to name a few. They have what it takes to really break out on the main scene.





They are also a charitable band. As part of their continuing Push Play for Purpose effort, they have made tens of thousands of dollars in donations to charitable organizations. The members of Push Play spend time giving out sweatshirts to the homeless in Manhattan. They are just good kids rocking out.

Here's their website

Crazines at the Donkey

About two weeks ago Uncharted Waves was lucky to have Shane Told, lead singer of Silverstein, call into the station for an interview to talk about their album release tour. "A Shipwreck in the Sand" debuted back in March, and the band's fans are loving it.

This past Thursday Silverstein's tour hit New York at the Crazy Donkey, and it was wild. The place had so many people in it that my body temperature raised 10 degrees when we stepped in. The lineup included Norma Jean, Bless The Fall, Before Their Eyes and of course Silverstein.

This show proved that the hardcore scene is not dead, and it is actually thriving right here on LI. It was by far the most people I have seen in the Donkey since Adler's Appetite. Everybody was moving and the mosh pit took up almost the entire center floor. It was crazy watching bodies flying into the air and fists pumping with every beat, you could really feel the energy of the bands music filling into the crowd. When Silverstein played there new single "Vices" the whole floor moved in completely unpredictable patterns, everybody was just running around and getting absolutely wild!



This is still pretty early in Silverstein's tour, but from Shane's lips to the fan's ears, it was one of the most energetic shows so far
. The quality of the music was amazing, you could really pick out each instrument if you listened close enough. And the light show was really impressive too, I have never seen them look so good at the Donkey, and we've seen quite a few shows there. Just goes to show that the more money the ticket is, the more professional the shows get. Usually they are pretty good, but almost monotonous at times, but these lights always felt fresh.











For upcoming dates on Silverstein's "Shipwreck in the Sand" tour go HERE. This is an huge tour, so check out if they are coming to your town, this is a show you don't want to miss.


Thank YOU Long Island for keeping the scene alive! Keep coming out!

Power Outage


The power at the station blows out 30 min into Jess's first show that she is doing solo. Everything was going fine and dandy....until she's sitting there in the dark studio running on back up power that runs out in like 2 min.

Da F*@K?! Maybe it's time to have solar power so we never run out. Ahhhhhh now that's a good way to go green eh?

Anyways, we want to thank PIERCING SILENCE for coming out today. These guys are awesome, and we will have them on the show on a future date.

So we'll be back next week, and joining us in the studios is Petrel!!!
