:Podcast: Heavy Rotation – Episode One

Heavy Rotation LogoTake this! It’s your all access pass to Club Heavy Rotation.

Heavy Rotation focuses on blended sets of club friendly EBM, Dark Electro, Digital Hardcore, Electroclash, and Darkwave from the past and present.

Artists featured include The Horrorist, Squarehead, Alien Vampires, Wumpscut and The Prodigy. Turn it on, tune in, drop out and dance the day (or night) away! (more…)

:2012 Year in Review: Maresa Whitehead – COMA Reviewer

2012-doomsdayMy 2012 year-in-review is really just the latter-half-of-2012-in-review, considering I was all but dead while finishing the thesis for my MFA degree throughout the first five months. Even when I emerged from the black depths of self-induced sequester, my caffeine-laden, sleep-deprived, student-loan-indebted soul didn’t get a chance to hear many of this year’s new albums. But that certainly doesn’t mean I didn’t find my favorites! (more…)

:Music Review: Various Artists – Electronic Saviors Volume II Recurrence

Various Artists – Electronic Saviors Volume II Recurrence
Release Date: May 8, 2012
Label: Metropolis Records
Website: electronicsaviors.com

Review by: DeVico

Jim Semonik is back with the second compilation installment of Electronic Saviors and this time, the ceiling has been lifted to become an even huger and massive compilation. With proceeds going to at least two charities: Gilda’s Club/Cancer Support Community and The Bone Marrow Foundation you get the chance to help others and build your music library. ES Volume 1 was a sold out product on Metropolis Records and with good fortune, I am hoping they have the same scenario with ES Volume 2. The premium edition of ES 2 comes with six CD’s and two digital discs. This compilation clocks at 142 tracks with over 10 hours of play. Seriously, this is a juggernaut of music. (more…)

This week will include tons of new music from artists like C-Lekktor, Spilstar, Stray, and almost the entire list from the new Resistanz 2012 compilation! So crank up the speakers and be ready to make some crazy moves and and annoy your neighbors and their pets! Digital Glitch is here for the weekend!

:Music News: Metropolis Records June 2012 Releases

HOLY COW June is shaping up to be one crazy month over at Metropolis Records. Not only do they have a slew of new releases coming out but they have officially signed Skinny Puppy! Yep you read that right the mighty Puppy are now on Metropolis Records! A perfect home I say. Not only that they are reissuing perhaps one of the most important coldwave albums of the 90′s 16Volt’s LetDownCrush. I spent hours standing in my dorm room air guitaring to this record pretending to be Eric Powell in front of 30 people rocking out. While Skin introduced the world to 16Volt, LetDownCrush made it obvious they were the next big thing. So here is Metropolis’s line up for June 2012:

June 12th:

Skinny Puppy: Bootlegged, Broke and in Solvent Seas.

Assemblage 23: Bruise (Limited Edition)

Decoded Feedback: disKonnekt

Heimataerde: Gottgleich

iVardenspher: I Dream in Noise Remixes: Vol. 2

June 26th:

16Volt: LetDownCrush (Reissue)

Suicide Commando: The Suicide Sessions II

Cesium_137: Science and Sound

Happy Shopping Everyone! And remember March is Buy Independent Music Month so pre-order these babies up today!

COMA Music Magazine Fundraiser 2012

So what is this fundraiser all about? Well, we have shot all our live footage with the same $200 camera for the last five years and now that camera is starting to fail. This presents the perfect opportunity to upgrade to hi def for more awesome videos and the camera I have found? Holy shit is it perfect for live footage.

In addition to that, US Airways busted the main lens I shoot live photography with when we went to Cyber Genetic Winter Fest so that needs to be replaced as well. So that, in a nutshell is what we are trying to accomplish here. Take a look at the incentives and be ready because it goes live at 10am MST March 14th, 2012.

:Music News: Deathwatch Asia announces Detroit Diesel Coup d’Etat

It is the nature of a “Coup d’Etat” that it is seldom announced in advance.

However, in this case, we make an exception.

Whether the end of the world is as nigh as some prophets of doom predict or otherwise, there can be little doubt that we currently live in tempestuous times. Art has a tendency to reflect its environment – therefore in the aftermath of the “Occupy” protests, continued rioting across Europe, the ongoing “Arab Spring” and the sabre-rattling across the Straits of Hormuz, it should come perhaps as no surprise that DETROIT DIESEL have chosen “Coup d’Etat” as the title of their new album.

Aired: January 24, 2012

Digital Glitch 28, coming at you in full stereo for your face! This set begins with the letter I and gets to the letter P! Are you ready for this kind of abuse? It is gonna get so nasty on the mic, you might just have to be tested after hearing it! This week I give my two cents on how the media chooses what they want to make into a movie and how absolutely wrong they were to NOT make the movie Bioshock. Do you find the word cougar offensive, or would you be offended if your child went to a school with this mascot? A whole lot of ranting, good music and just typical GlitchMode BS in this episode #28! So get ready for some more mind blowing orgasmic tune release! HERE COMES THE BEATS!
