I Be Reppin' My City



So there's this kid who was born a few years after me who now 20 years later makes music. To be more specific, he's E-603 (The E stands for Ethan while the 603 is the zip code for the more upright state in the Montshire Alliance - New Hampshire) and he makes mashups. His new album is called Torn Up and his sample library reaches from the depths of the indie underground and the peak of the Top 40. You wanna listen? Go to his myspace. You wanna listen to more and for longer? Go to his website and get it for whatever you like (and his first album for free).

Station Update



When we lost all that library space back in January we all thought, "Oh no! What will we do with all these records littering our floors?"

Well, I am proud to say that they plague us no more. The vinyl has all be reshelved with plenty of space to spare. In addition to this, we are getting another beautiful new cd rack to clear up more space in our newsroom.

Oh, and by the way, all the Cds are shelved and labeled.

This is truly WRMC history.

more love from the dirty jerz

hello kittens. i've missed you. here is a present. meow.


http://stillnessisthemove.com/large.html







i got to see these people perform live in the basement of the first unitarian church in philadelphia, pennsylvania on june 17th and let me tell you, it was worth all the disgustingly sweaty jostling, sloppy drunk art students and local riff-raff yelling in my ear about sixers draft picks. the dirty projectors ARE IT. these girls are unbelievable live, their vocal arrangements make your whole body tingly, and this dude (a yale drop-out apparently, btw) is insane live. the music washed over me in perfect waves of lean-in-just-to-barely-hear-it-quiet and overwhelmingly-loud-sound-crashes. not to mention i got a sweet bag for only five dollars (when it should have been ten)! this video is almost as cool as seeing them live at the first unitarian, but cooler than listening to them on your headphones in atwater while studying for your russian final exam.



unrelated, but just for good measure, this song is also the jam:





humid, summery, bug-bitten love and kisses

Ween Hour



To celebrate the arrival of rock music's most eclectic duo, Ween, to Burlington's Waterfront, WRMC is having a daily WEEN HOUR. Everyday from 6-7pm we will be playing your favorite (or maybe not your favorite) Ween tunes. As Ween can range from country, to noise to pop to metal, this may sit strange in your eardrums. However, we like it that way.

The show is Saturday, July 11 with openers Antibalas, the extraordinary Afrobeat orchestra.

For tickets go HERE

For more Ween go HERE

More as the show approaches.

RIP Michael



In paying our respects to the late great King of Pop. An afternoon of Michael Jackson on 91.1FM.

You will be missed.

With love,

WRMC
