The Latest and Greatest...

Thanks for tuning in to the final installment of our September songs. There's not much left to say about this month. Some of my all time favorite SoundClouders agreed to be involved in our little show and I personally could not be prouder. We featured one of my favorite bands to ever be featured with DuCru and even managed an interview with Andrew Dugan from the group.We aired our first Ska punk band with Alex Kid and had a blast putting them on repeat. Stella Haze dropped in and started the string of ultra talented female singer songwriters followed by the queen of the independents herself Cyra Morgan, capped off by Edie Brickell collaborating with our very own brother Derek Cornett. The episodes ends with a great interview from Derek with us and the entire show is packed with great music conversation and then some.

Thanks fpr supporting the cause my friends. Your sharing and liking is what keeps us grooving along. We will be back next month with a brand new power house list of metal and more great conversation as well. Now sit back and listen for now, Enjoy and continue to support the bands you find interesting. Thats what this project is all about.

It's Another Recap Session...

Hi and welcome fans and bands to another Underground Recap Session. These are the episodes that I really end up enjoying the most. After all of the hard work and planning is done I finally get to sit around with my good friends and just talk. While we do discuss the music we've collected throughout the month we always end up chatting about so much more as well and I never really know in the end where that conversation will go. Thank you to Erik from Hifidelics.com and of course my partner Travis from the band The Day The Sky Fell for joining me this month. They both did a great job, Thank you as well to Jimmy Hinchcliff for battling the Google plugin to join us for a pretty interesting short interview.

This is one of those months that has me reflecting a bit. From where I started two years ago to where the show is now. Our goal was never to become some giant in the industry, was never to really have an objective, but more to feature new bands, artists, and musicians that weren't played. My goal as producer and co founder was to try and stay fluid in my role, and let the concept organically evolve. Since that first episode that Tony and I did recording our hangout through the garageband app to this episode the show has come a long way. We are still doing what we set out to do. Still highlighting great independent music. We haven't sold out in anyway. Still uncensored and unedited, Some ideas haven't panned out as I had hoped while some aspects have taken on a life of their own. Tony and Adam have gone, Nicole and Johan have come and gone. There has been plenty of changes drama control issues, and more behind the scenes problems then a kardashian picnic, but the show has been left to evolve. So while I'm left missing some, and resenting others, I owe them all a giant Thank you for helping make The Unsigned Countdown and Underground Recap Sessions better in the time that they were involved. Thank you as well to Jacob and Travis for sticking around, Charles for coming on board, and to every band that has let us feature them. Nothing great is ever easy, but while it's never been simple to pull off. In the end of every month, when I finally get to sit down and just hit that record button and talk. I'm always and will always be super grateful

S2.9.25 September Edition...

Thank you one and all for listening to another great episode of "The Unsigned Countdown". A broadcast devoted to the feature, promotion, and review of the amazing unsigned and Independent talent out there waiting to be listened to. Our goal isn't to get you to love every musician band or artist we feature. Our goal is to bring you new music, or a new sound to your earbaslls and ask you to support those artists that created the sounds you enjoyed. Our goal is to offer feedback, and support to those artists, and to offer it all to everyone for free. We only promote those in our music community, but every month we invite ten more bands and even more to our community. Then on Christmas we open that up to all when we ask for Unsigned and Independent original or public domain classic cover Holiday tracks to fill our annual Stitcher Christmas Special.

Where the heck is Charles

Hey and welcome to another installment of The Underground Recap Sessions. Thanks for tuning in and I hope you enjoy yourself. Usually I don't write anything lengthy in this episodes mainly because they are pretty self explanatory. It's just a discussion and during that discussion we review the first Five songs of August. Generally though it's a reason for us to get together and have a good time. Jason (me) is joined by veteran Jacob and all around good guy Travis during this episode and they (we) talk about whatever comes up along with the way.

Bands under review this week are

Who Is Ready For Tomorrow

Although it's still early with the new crew there is a real difference in attitude toward discussions about the events surrounding the show. An excitement about what we are actually trying to accomplish seems to fill the private chat we all use to keep connected. While talks often stream to the off topic some how for some reason I've noticed that with out me poking them these guys continually come back to subjects like the recordings, or new finds that we need to feature. For me it's pretty cool. What we do here is pretty cool. We feature promote and review music of the unsigned variety. but suddenly and with out forcing anything we've become fun again.

In the coming months we hope to evolve into something even broader then we have been. We are considering new genres and new ways to promote. No longer I hope will it be ten songs picked by me and more of a collaboration of the minds getting together to talk tunes and having fun being able to just get together and talk. Just in our first get together earlier the crew recorded their first song bumpers and if that was any indication of where this new The Unsigned Countdown is going, I'm super excited to be involved and even more excited for you as the fan to listen.

Thank you to every band for being apart of what we do and thank you to every fan for listening.

Like changing underwear

Welcome to August. And welcome to another mid season changing of the guard. We got a brand new list of great unsigned talents to bleed your earballs and a new group of learned and oh so talented co-hosts to discuss them. While I Jason am producer and so stuck in my glorified position every other former host was given the opportunity to resign or move on to bigger and better things. Our buddy and now the veteran of the gang Jacob has decided to stick around and battle through the mixture of music that at some points leaves him pulling on his nut sack. Our boy Travis is going to be a mainstay for years to come and enjoys a wide variety of genres. Joining the cast this month is the wise oracle Charles. His high brow antics and down to earth point of view should leave you scratching your head and laughing your ass off. Finally we are lucky enough to get the all knowing and master of metal edm and production the singer songwriter and genius of our season one winning band Benson.

Our goal as always will be to feature promote and review the vast expansion of unsigned talent floating out there amongst the cosmos. Our hope is to do this in a fun and informative way. We might not always stay on topic but in the end we should have entertained you the listener. Offered some valuable feedback to the bands that were brave enough to agree to be featured, and hopefully throw in some great tips and tricks to how to create better music in this ever changing music industry.

If you make great music, if you want it heard and listened to by a global audience, and you'd like to be a part of the revolutionary project that has become The Unsigned Countdown and Underground Recap Sessions then grab your balls out of the drawer, strap those bitches on and email us an audio file of your track, a brief bio, and band links hopefully including Facebook, soundcloud, reverbnation, Bandcamp, or other useful links to [email protected]

Farewell to Johan...

Hey bands and fans. I'm not going to write a lot today because I'm a bit under the weather. Sit back and listen to our Top Five discussion and let us know how you feel. Thank you to the brave bands that submitted and as well to Travis Jacob and Johan for joining me in this epic Episode

Soundcloud.com/jarcodes

Thanks for listening to the Underground Recap Sessions. Sit back and relax while Jacob and Jason discussion the First Five bands in our Month of independents. This list is a great mixture of Metal sounds while skirting the genres we all may have come to love from the countdown. This episode is much shorter then the usual and is the beginning of the two part finale of the old guard. There will be some big changes in the coming months as some of the past co-hosts reevaluate their roles here with us. Many thanks go out to Tony and Johan for everything they've brought to the Show as well a big thank you to Jacob for having the class to offer up a final Recap recording before he moves on to a new project that we will be cross promoting with. Stay tuned for more information.

As always thank you to every musician band and artist for agreeing to be featured. Without you we are nothing. If you would like to be a part of a future countdown, If you would like to try a live stream Band & Fan Chat interview or if you think you might have what it takes to join the crew and come on air with us feel free to contact Jason at [email protected]

Support the Cause...

Another great month and another great Top Five brought to you by the fine folks at Jarcodes Productions. Thanks for listening and thank you for the support. We hope we helped you to discover the next great band in your life.
