In rotation but can't call in

Update #12 · Sep 5, 2012 · comment

OK, so.. it turns out, our song is in the system and being rotated but we can't really request it b/c it's pre-programmed. 

When we first talked to the music director of KBEACH, he told us and encouraged us to call in on Mondays and Wednesdays from 9 to 10 AM, PST. But it actually can't be really requested.

Sorry about this, folks. We were just really enthused that our track was being played!

We have a number of stations that will start rotate the track, and as we find out, we will let you know.

Sorry again!

What a morning!!

Go Banter coverage on This Is Why

Update #9 · Aug 25, 2012 · comment

Oakland lifestyle blog, Go Banter, covered This Is Why.

Ensemble Mik Nawooj is widely known for their sprawling, ambitious, apocalyptic, intelligent opera, Great Integration. They also have a lighter, radio-friendly (but not friendly to the point of pandering a la Katy Perry, for which I am ever thankful) side and they want you to know it. Continuing Joowan Kim’s ingenious “hybrid music” or “chamber hip-hop” or “amazing shit that will blow your mind” style, EMN have released a great new track that anyone can relate to without having to think too much. It’s called This is Why and it’s about your crazy ex. You know the one. Broke all your dishes and sent you an envelope of your own hair–even after you’ve moved three times and changed your name. Or is that just me?
