Listening to Local on the 8s.....
Jul. 30th, 2009 10:15 pmThere's some way cool music they're airing during "Local on the 8s" on the Weather Channel this month. They have a list of it here: weather.com/tv/music.
One song that I really dig has a slow, seductive synth bass line. It's got a techno/electronica sound to it. Some web searching, along with some trial-and-error listening on Rhapsody, have brought me to the band's web site. STS9, or Sound Tribe Sector 9 to use their full name, is a quintet of jam rock musicians. The song they're using on the Weather Channel this month is called "Metameme", from their 2008 album "Peaceblaster".
I'm gonna have to buy this CD now.
It's good that these guys are getting some airplay somewhere. Jam rock bands don't get much airplay on the radio.
