VIC Radio

One down, one to go…

Radio Rush Night was a success… I think!

AND, on that note, keep in mind that SINGLES NIGHT is coming up soon!

Things I love about indie music

1. Waiting for that amazing crash of noise and fuzz in neutral milk hotel king of carrot flowers.

yup.

If you were at radio rush night…

you’d know that the tumblr is “fantastic.” :)

Like I said, go to radio rush night. →

Here’s the facebook event! Check it.

If you weren’t having enough fun with our new music yet, HERE’S SOME MORE. Oh yes, even more.

I present to you, one of my favorites from this week, The Jezabels with Endless Summer.

I’d give you some fun facts, but all you really need to know is that this sounds good, we added it, they’re Australian. That is TWO Australian groups we’ve added this week — name me another station that’s done THAT for you! I thought so.

Anyway,

come to Radio Rush Night on Thursday in Park Auditorium at 7pm and you’ll be able to tell your friends that YOU brought two cool new Australian bands into their lives. And you’ll officially be the coolest you can be.

News!

Non-music related post!

I know these are your favorites, guys.

WELL, VIC has been planning and working on some shenanigans. Well, only two shenanigans, really. But you should be aware of them!

1. THURSDAY, being in TWO DAYS, January 26th! RADIO RUSH NIGHT. Yes, it’s here again! At 7pm in Park Auditorium, both VIC and WICB will be looking to get YOU to come DJ for them! You can hear all about the differences, how you can get involved, what you can do and how much FUN it is! You can DJ, work on promotions, production, news, whatever, we’ve got it! (Or ICB does, but we don’t think about that a lot.) SO, basically, BE THERE. And bring your friends! That is Thursday, January 26th, 7pm, Park Auditorium.
2. SINGLES NIGHT! I don’t have that many details about this, but the weekend before Valentine’s Day, VIC will be hosting Speed Dating, a DJ Auction (for a date!) and some general singles night festivities. It’ll be in the pub and it’s ALL for charity, so when you bid on one of our DJs for a Valentine’s date, you’ll be helping out a good cause, boosting someone’s self esteem AND having fun/getting a date! So, that’ll be a party.

Um, that might be it. But be sure to go to both!

I know for a while, we were without new music, or really music at all. BUT FEAR NOT. This week we added FIVE songs, including this one!

Nada Surf - Looking Through

NEW Nada Surf? What? Well, think about this: Nada Surf formed in 1992… #iwasntbornyet

BUT I can still dig this jam. Which I do. Really hard.

Guess what’s been back for four and a half hours now?

VIC! Streaming right now and forevermore right here!

And, to make it even better, we’ve even got new music for you. I’d bet after a month of NOT hearing any awesome jamz, you’ll be really glad to hear some of what we have in store for you this week.

Liiiiiiiiiike, this song right here: This Is What I Said by Cloud Control

Fun facts:

• They’re Australian.
• They’re Australian.
• They’re Australian.
• The four members met at a rehearsal for a production of Pirates of Penzance.
• They supported Foo Fighters on tour in Queensland.
• They’ve actually been nominated for (though they lost…) a bunch of awards for two of the singles on their debut album!

Also, they sound pretty damn good.

Stay tuned for more things that sound pretty damn good this week!

OGIE WANTS YOU ALL TO KNOW THAT VIC IS BACK ON MONDAY AT 10AM EST.

And, even though Ogie wants you to know it, I think you should all really care. There WILL be new music this week, and there’ll be real DJs and EVERYTHING. So, you can jump into second semester stuff (alliteration, what up?) with AWESOME music and AWESOME DJs bringing you aforementioned AWESOME music.

Basically:

Rejoice, Ithaca (AND THE REST OF THE WORLD — streaming worldwide and all!), your favorite indie jamz are returning Monday morning!

Know what else is coming soon to VIC? NEW MUSIC. Oh yes. There are students on campus, not me, unfortunately, and everything’s starting up again on MONDAY. That is TWO days away! So, to get you excited, I will leave you with this favorite!

I dare you not to tap your foot or get this stuck in your head. I dare you. I wish there was a music video, though, even if it was all Robyn-esque and just dancing in a room; that’d be enough for me.
