Altrok Radio's New Music 071
by Sean Carolan
Altrok Radio adds Kaiser Chiefs, Raveonettes, Art Brut, New Order and much much more...
Here's where you can hear Altrok Radio:
Altrok Radio plays new music the way Independent Alternative radio once did. We don't throw on the latest cookie-cutter rap/metal outfit that's being marketed as "alternative". But if it's new, it's interesting, and it's challenging, it's on our stream. (And we'll play older stuff that's interesting and challenging, too.)
Update 4/22/05: Here's the latest adds for the week:
Art Brut - Emily Kane
Dead 60s, The - Riot Radio
Raveonettes, The - Sleepwalking
Kaiser Chiefs - Everyday I Love You Less And Less
Mando Diao - Clean Town
New Order - Dracula's Castle
Architecture In Helsinki - Do The Whirlwind
Wombats, The - Happily Screwed
Lab Partners - Now
Spoon - My Mathematical Mind
Blue Van, The - Revelation Of Love
Mountain Goats, The - This Year
Each week, Jeff Raspe picks an outstanding track from a brand-new album. This week, the pick is:
Blink - Snow White Has Let You Down Again
And in our Grinder this week...
British Sea Power - Oh Larsen B
Fischerspooner - Cloud
Pluto - Dance Stamina
Beck - Girl
House Of Love, The - Days Run Away
Le Tigre - Tell You Now
Live365's editors made us the Alternative Editor's Pick in May 2004, as did About.com, so there's a small but growing group of people that count on us for the best new music we can find, and the best classic alternative dredged from the canals of our (rapidly fading) memory.
So, in short, you can listen to Altrok Radio in 64k MP3Pro here...

(and remember: on weekend evenings, the Muddy Channel is home to the Party Gone Out Of Bounds - the perfect soundtrack to the kind of house party you thought only existed in old John Hughes movies. Try it and see!)
