Lose it

If you follow the adventures of Brendan Kergin and myself on Threat Shark, chances are you have heard me rave about Austra on the air, or you've read me raving about them in the summer edition of Threat Shark.

The moral of the story is...

Austra is amazing.

Darling, darling, darling

In a slight extension of an earlier post that I fired up on Threat Shark today, I would like to take a moment to recognize the latest Canadian folk artist that has struck a chord with me.

Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce to you, Corey Isenor.

Meanwhile, back in Radioland...

Once upon a time, I had a radio show back in Kamloops, B.C.

My co-host and I played rockin' indie and alternative, with the occasional splash of hip hop, bubble gum pop and other fun tunes.

Unfortunately, with both of us living on opposite sides of this beautiful country (he is in Victoria; I am in Toronto) it became a bit difficult for us to continue our on-air shenanigans through the summer.

Threat Shark Lost Tracks Vol. I

When doing the programming for Threat Shark, Kergin and I often run into one consistent problem: we have far too many great tracks that we want to play and not enough time to play them all. As a result, we often end up cutting some amazing selections. Depending on the week, sometimes he leaves rattled and other weeks it is me who is choked that I didn't get to play "my track."
