Episode No. 650 - Here's The Story: It's An Evolution

So, here’s the story: this week is the 650th episode of The UNHEARD Music. 650 hours of the evolution of alternative music. This episode is a snapshot of a decade of music with bands going from the underground to the main stage. Bands on the verge, bands in transition and the birth of the grunge supergroup that completely changed the 90s.

Episode No. 649 - Ring Ring 7am & The LES

New York City was a moment. I mean, NYC is always a moment— but nine of the fourteen bands in this week's episode can trace their beginnings directly to those downtown LES streets. Punk, funk, no-wave, new wave, and garage—with all roads leading back to one of the major launching pads of modern alternative music.

Episode No. 648 - It's Educational (And Other 90s Lies)

This week is a great big ‘ole slice of 90s alternative rock pie. With a side order of 80s alternative and new wave because the 80s are always on the menu. But this episode turned out to be a lesson, an education on what was happening in the alternative universe in the 90s.

Episode No. 647 - Be-Bop Beats Don't Stop

This might not be what comes to mind initially when you hear the words dance music. But make no mistake, this is dance music - for the Alternatives. Electro-funk, synth-pop, post-punk dance grooves and a blast of high energy industrial in all its glory. This is the dance floor after-dark.
