Suggestions for my Radio show

(1/4) > >>

wvumDJBen:
Hey there everyone...

My name's Ben, I'm a DJ for the University of Miami radio station. We play all 'indie/alternative' music, but I've never really gotten into the scene at all (note: thats not to day I don't like it, I just haven't ever listened to it).

Anyways, Since during my last show I chose music based on cover-art, I figured you QC music fans might be willing to help me by suggestion cool groups and/or songs.  If you feel like tuning in sometime, you can hit up www.wvum.org and catch a live stream. My show runs 1am-4am Tuesday mornings...

Praeserpium Machinarum:
Dinosaur Jr. - Feel the Pain
and anything with these guys and girls:
Pixies

Low
Built to Spill
Tom Waits
Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds

Godspeed You Black Emperor!(prog rock with 20 minutes tracks, might not be ideal but I wish someone would do it, Dead Flag Blues might be fun to play)
Einstürzende Neubauten

Inner Peace
Clonie
