Unknown length - Oct 19, 2007
4Track Radar is an independent music showcase that highlights different artists/bands and music scenes from around the globe. Each episode profiles a different city and how a specific genre flourishes within that city. Our goal is to target Los Angeles, London, New York, Nashville, Tokyo, Copenhagen, Sydney and other major worldwide cities. Within this digital age, artists are blazing their own path to success by fostering an extensive fan base without the backing of a major record label. Media vehicles like Myspace.com, along with independent and college radio, give fans access to a wide array of independent music. The pilot episode focuses on Indie Rock in Los Angeles. Breakthrough artists such as Tom Waits and Nick Cave have made their mark on this genre, thus paving the way for many acts that call this city home. Silver Lake and Echo Park host bands from all over the world. Fans that have seen it all and heard it all fiercely follow acts that have eluded the mainstream (purposefully or not). The discriminating ear searches for something exciting and fresh. With recent broadcasts from groundbreaking radio stations such as LA’s Indie 103.1, which has only scratched the surface of what this genre is, independently produced and distributed music is becoming more and more accessible to the LA audience each day. This station may not meet the criteria of the every discriminating fan, but it’s most certainly a funnel in which most can agree plays a wide range of artists, along with being partially responsible for breaking many local acts. 4Track Radar highlights five bands, each with their own distinctive sound: Run Run Run, Fu Manchu, The Plebz, Something For Rockets and Sugar In Wartime. Each voice their unique perspective of what it is like to live and thrive in the Indie Rock scene in Los Angeles and how they have perpetuated a following for their music.
