| #118 –The Album Project - Part 1 | 17 Nov 2023 | 00:53:37 | |
Taking a stroll down memory lane, I've started a new project: going through my CD crates one-by-one and thinking about where my life was when I listened to these albums, and listening to them again to see what I think of them. Playlist:
The first crate:

Episode Notes
2020 was a tough year and the first 6 months of 2021 haven't been great either, but we always have music. Here are some songs that look forward to some better days. Hopefully, I will get to my goal of revamping the website and podcast to go with it. Track List:

Two months later, I'm back with a podcast full of heavy guitar riffs with some lighter stuff mixed in for good measure. I had a fun time putting this episode together and I hope you enjoy it. Here's the track listing (with links to the tracks or artists).

| #114 –Back at it | 09 Mar 2020 | 00:51:02 | |
Welcome back to another full edition of Alternative Airwaves! This episode is more songs than talking, but I got struck by inspiration late last week and slapped something together. I was missing some pieces of my usual setup, so it's a bit bare-bones - but it's still got great music! Twitter | Facebook | Email: altairwaves AT gmail DOT com Playlist

| Weekly Airwave - My Sweet & Sour Room - Icicle | 12 Apr 2019 | 00:05:11 | |
Script Hi and welcome to Alternative Airwaves - I'm your host Steve, bringing you the best in Creative Commons music. This is the Weekly Airwave: one track with some information about the song or the artist. This week's track: My Sweet and Sour Room by Icicle. This is an instrumental track by Montreal artist Icicle; I found this by looking at similar artists to Lower Loveday from last week's episode. I don't normally pick out instrumental tracks, but I really liked the beat and instrument choice in this song. Icicle is actually Krassy Halatchev, and has Bulgarian origins. I think you can really hear some of his influences come through in this track. You can follow him on Jamendo or icicle dot club. Be sure to check out alternative airwaves dot com for more podcasts and music reviews. See you next time.

| Weekly Airwave - You Could've Been My Queen - Lower Loveday | 05 Apr 2019 | 00:04:04 | |
Script Hi and welcome to Alternative Airwaves - I'm your host Steve, bringing you the best in Creative Commons music. This is the Weekly Airwave: one track with some information about the song or the artist. This week's track: You Could've Been My Queen by Lower Loveday. This great indie track brought me back to the early 2000's indie scene with great British bands like Arctic Monkeys, or The Fratellis. Lower Loveday is indeed a British group, and got their start in a school talent show. They've been all around the UK and the world, and are making some great music. Aside from this week's track I also recommend Is It Right, currently one of their more popular tracks on Jamendo. You can find them online at lower love day dot com.

| Weekly Airwave - Problems - The DLX | 29 Mar 2019 | 00:04:23 | |
Script Hi and welcome to Alternative Airwaves - I'm your host Steve, bringing you the best in Creative Commons music. This is the Weekly Airwave: one track with some information about the song or the artist. This week's track: Problems by The DLX. Problems is an R&B-leaning pop track from American artist The DLX, based in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. No albums on Jamendo, but there are three singles you can check out. I liked this one for its simple beat and lyrics. Find out more about The DLX at the dlx dot net. Be sure to check out alternative airwaves dot com for more podcasts and music reviews.

| Weekly Airwave - Wild - The Rabbits | 22 Mar 2019 | 00:05:33 | |
Script Hi and welcome to Alternative Airwaves - I'm your host Steve, bringing you the best in Creative Commons music. This is the Weekly Airwave: one track with some information about the song or the artist. This week's track: Wild by The Rabbits. Wild is a quiet folk track from "Tall Pines and Tangled Vines", a 2018 debut LP by The Rabbits. The Rabbits hail from the UK, but are listed as Canadian on Jamendo - probably because they recorded their record at Orchid Studios in Vancouver, B-C - and they are also touring around Canada. Apparently they're doing this from a van they've been living in for almost a year. That's dedication to their music! Follow them on Jamendo or at the rabbits dot com.

| Weekly Airwave - Don't Wait - The Halt | 08 Mar 2019 | 00:04:11 | |
Script Hi and welcome to Alternative Airwaves - I'm your host Steve, bringing you the best in Creative Commons music. This is the Weekly Airwave: one track with some information about the song or the artist. This week's track: Don't Wait by The Halt. What do you know - another track out of the US. This time, The Halt: a rock group that formed in 2017 featuring Neil Matharoo (from the band Soundstatues) and Andrew Schwartz, both from Brooklyn. They don't have any albums on Jamendo, but they do have four singles at the time of recording. Don't Wait is a good mix of alternative and grunge, leaning more on the alt rock spectrum. You can buy their music at the halt dot band camp dot com. Be sure to check out alternative airwaves dot com for more podcasts and music reviews. See you next time.

| Weekly Airwave - All I Need Is You - Semmuel | 01 Mar 2019 | 00:04:18 | |
Script Hi and welcome to Alternative Airwaves - I'm your host Steve, bringing you the best in Creative Commons music. This is the Weekly Airwave: one track with some information about the song or the artist. This week's track: All I need is You by Semmuel. This track features some dark synth sounds and I think fits right alongside today's Top 40 songs. Semmuel is a hip hop / R&B artist based out of the U-S. From Jamendo: his music career began in 2017 when he signed with Graphic Entertainment Music, and eventually released a solo song "Athena" in June of that year - it was featured as Jamendo's artist of the month.

| Weekly Airwave - Boomerang - HoneyChrome | 22 Feb 2019 | 00:03:28 | |
Script Hi and welcome to Alternative Airwaves - I'm your host Steve, bringing you the best in Creative Commons music. This is the Weekly Airwave: one track with some information about the song or the artist. This week's track: Boomerang by HoneyChrome. Boomerang is a great pop track, released in 2018 by an American artist, based on Brooklyn N-Y-C. I find it really reminiscent of early 2000's pop, with a bit of eighties flair mixed in. It's a fun, short track and well worth following to see what he comes out with for 2019! Be sure to check out alternative airwaves dot com for more podcasts and music reviews. See you next time.

Script Hi and welcome to Alternative Airwaves - I'm your host Steve, bringing you the best in Creative Commons music. This is the Weekly Airwave: one track with some information about the song or the artist. This week's track: Undercover by Neon Niteclub. This group reminds me a ton of Canada's own Chromeo. Neon Niteclub is from the US, and describe themselves as "80s pop with a modern twist". Undercover comes from the 2018 album Blue Electric Eyes (be sure to check out that track as well).

| #85 - Growing Old Sucks | 08 May 2015 | 01:01:59 | |
In today's episode of Alternative Airwaves, we get TWO brand new tracks - from I Am Not Lefthanded and the Urban Canals! Plus plenty of other eclectic music that (mostly) fits together. Ottawa Comic Con is discussed briefly, and I also complain about what may or may not be a cold or allergies. Exciting stuff!

A short episode today, fueled by an Amsterdam Brewery 9% Imperial Stout and 3 out of 4 wins in Curling this week. Featured songs include a recommendation from a fellow Redditor, an Ottawa band I just discovered this weekend, and a new tune from Great White Buffalo - all that music and some cool things the Free Music Archive is doing. Tune in and enjoy!
