Back On His Feet
KOMODO is 100% ASIAN ALTERNATIVE commercial-free - 24x7 365! - check the bio! This is what is landing into Katie @katkills & Jongo @jonathangoehr shows next week…
WIKARNA @wikarna_official (Tulungagung, East Java, INDONESIA) have sent KOMODO their latest single "Kepastian” (Certainty). It’s a GREAT song, certainly, check it out :) but it’s a wee bit soft for us at KOMODO - after all, we are an underground/alt station! So, we dived into their earlier releases and “Delima” hits our spot - let’s get it on the air, right across Asia.
VARTEY GANIVA @vartey is a CAMBODIAN/KHMER punk singer inspired by Bikini Kill, death metal, post-punk, and Khmer romvong. Originally from the village Prek Lvea in Kandal Province, she made her debut in 2016 with the popular feminist punk song "Evil Husband," which tells the story of an abusive relationship in a patriarchal society. Vartey has created many anti-love songs intended to counter the trend of pop and love songs saturating modern Cambodian radio. KOMODO is spinning “ឈប់ឈឺ” (Stop Hurt) - don’t miss the music video it’s a must-watch!
Our buddy Jiesus @jiesussamsara (Cebu City, PHILIPPINES) is back on his feet and recovered from the super typhoon which wiped out his studio. Just dropping is his new ASHTRAYS TO GAZZA album. “It’s Pseudo” is a deliberate SONIC YOUTH rip off and is SO COOL that KOMODO is going to be playing ALL 11 tracks! Next week we kick off the marathon with “Left to drown in a sea of hotdogs” and “Vroom vroom dead girl”. Top album art!
Oh, what on earth could we possibly say about CÚT LỘN @cutlonband (Hanoi, VIETNAM) - they are insanely indescribable! They are such a KATIE favourite that she spins them just about every day in her shows. Listen up for “Con Nhà Người Ta” (Child of The People’s House) and “Em Uống Bia” (I Drink Beer). Check out their music videos, they are guaranteed to fill every hole in your life!
The unimaginable humanitarian disaster and Putin’s war crimes continue. PUSSY RIOT @wearepussyriot continue to take over the KOMODO airwaves at 6AM and 6PM daily.
KOMODO’s art is by Bali’s @rickybilly50 – download the posters each week from our website!
