Radio KOMODO plays 100% Asian Alternative
Radio KOMODO plays 100% Asian Alternative – we launched two weeks ago! We are based in Bali Indonesia where we already broadcast the most listened to Balinese alternative station @radiovolcano.bali
Each week on KOMODO Katie @katkills& Jongo @jonathangoehr feature four favourite bands on their turntables – kicking off our very first bunch, let’s trip to Japan, Korea, Indonesia & Hong Kong!
Who would name their band after the words printed on a pencil case? Well, Nagoya’s perpetual pop-punk brats ACROBAT SHONEN @acrobatshonendid! Crazy times continue in Asia as the new DELTA variant surges. The Pop Punk 3-piece featuring members of Ghost of Matsubara, Turning the Sea into Monsters, and Tansu wa Saoto Kazoerunda yo – have some sound advice “Wash Your Hands”. Also playing - “Dramatic Love Chicken” and “English Song”!
Post-Josen Punker’s RUMKICKS @rumkicks are a fave here at KOMODO. Their songs and videos may be hilarious but listen to the lyrics – they address serious issues. Two tracks we have on high-rotation are “I Don’t Wanna Die” (discussing self-harm) and “Don’t Touch My Hair” (NO means NO). Yeawon (Guitar/Vocal), Se-eun (Bass/Vocal) and Minjung (Drums/Vocal) are infectious – you are gonna hear them LOTS on KOMODO.
Right now Java and Bali are in a long, hard, lockdown. The DELTA variant is killing over 1,000 people a day in Indonesia. Bandung's THE GRAY FIELD @thegreyfield are doing something amazing to lift spirits – their music is FREE to download. Yep, all songs and albums are FREE for the duration of the lockdown. Details on their Instagram feed. This week we are featuring “Lost Myself”.
OK, times are challenging, but heck how about a bit of fun! Hong Kong’s pop-punkers DELAY OUR MISERY @delay.our.misery are shouting the drinks! “Are you gonna just sit around and see, or do you wanna drink a round with me?” We are featuring their smash “The After Party”. Guys - Brace yourself, tonight we’ll be there!
