Stroll down Monkey Forest Road
VOLCANO broadcasts ONLY BALINESE ALTERNATIVE and INDEPENDENT commercial-free 24x7 364!
Stroll down Monkey Forest Road on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday night. Keep walking towards the sweet sound of the slides and slurs and there is a good chance you will stumble into Davy aka SAURUS @daviesaurus. The guy would have to be one of the hardest-working guitarists in Bali, being a member of @modjorido, @sidekickbuds, @chemmycalls and in the past @rainbowandcloud.band...
Whenever VOLCANO runs into Davy, he showers us with compliments such as, “you’re looking well” and “hey cool haircut”. You see, Davy is very polite. If you ever meet him and he complements you too, why not respond with, “Hey, I like that riff!”, “Wow, really cool lick there” or “That was a beautiful chord progression”…
This week a year ago, Davy released his solo single “Sunflower”. It’s an amazing song, the vocals remind us so much of the legendary Lou Reed, and this week we are spinning it again like new! Mixed and mastered by @wayanjos, listen up for the guest appearances on the track from @rozienzia, Grace Mariska and @mmmorrs.
Denpasar’s Oi! brigade BOOTBOi!S @bootbois_official have released their first album! WOT, it took 17 years to make!! As you would expect it’s 10 wild tracks from the punkers - VOLCANO is stage diving into EVERY track - this week listen up for the album’s title track “Reuni Kita”.
Tabanan-based architect, visual identity designer, surfer and crack songwriter/musician AZIZ SURAH @azizsurah is back after being in a 10-year musical vacuum! He has dropped over to VOLCANO a bunch of new singles including “Greatest Day”, “Better off Dead” and “Clones”. VOLCANO is spinning them all - listen up this week for our fave “Phubbing”.
Have you ever wondered exactly what Denpasar’s REGICIDE @regicide_official are growling about? Wonder no more! These creatures of darkness have dropped a sick lyric video for “Hymne Pencakar Surga” (The Hymn of the Skyscraper - errr maybe??). The track is off their self-titled debut album, listen to it on VOLCANO and follow the lyrics along on YouTube!
Hey, a heads-up! … The VOLCANO mailbox is overflowing, BUT DON’T LET UP – keep sending us your stuff! Sorry, it often now takes us a few weeks to reply - but be assured we do read EVERY email and listen to EVERY song submission.
The waitlist to be on the VOLCANO poster is now over two months long - so be smart kids like @sourmilkclub, @exciraofficial and the other bands that let us know when they are recording and sometimes even send us the WIP track, so that way they can reserve a poster slot close to the release date!
