IR: The SoCal Sessions 21 - My DJ Has a God Complex
January 23, 2008
Now, this episode has little to do with the Lord, aside from the fact he brought you the tunes today. Kidding. As far as the wacky intro, it was personally mixed using samples from serious folk with vivid imaginations. Scary, no? Well… maybe not as much as that counterbalancing demonic Fireside promo I stumbled across and stuck in the program.
Breaking our Warped record on episode length, the newest clocks in at a little over an hour and dishes up sixteen diverse and excellent tracks from artists in San Diego, all the way into LA, and onward up the 5 past Southern California’s fringes to Fresno.
Some of the artists just released brand new CDs, such as the very promising and extremely solid full length by upcoming wunderkind 2nd Day Crush, as well as the talented LA based Metro Station; luckily not a recording of station ambience released by the Los Angeles MTA. The latter is at Hot Topic (yeah, I know you all shop there).
There are a record number of local live shows coming up as well, not to mention new national tour schedules starting up by artists like San Diego’s Pensive and Weatherbox. From Aulta at the Alley in Fullerton, to Streets of Rage at Chain Reaction in Anaheim, and 2nd Day Crush at the Key Club in Hollywood, there lots of live local action to choose from to get your year started off properly.
So, after you get your sizable musical fix, we recommend that you cement your own crazy memories at some of the shows listed below. Until next time… IR Bizzach!
Time to lay off the caffeine…

IR: SoCal Spotlight - Manic Automatic w/ “Ruin Me”
January 19, 2008
Fellow Insomniacs,
In Mid-November we brought you a review of a great new band that put in their first public performance at the Roxy Theater on the Sunset Strip here in Los Angeles on 11/15/07.
Well, in December I had the chance to meet up with this new five piece, Manic Automatic, at their rehearsal space near Santa Monica, where they were hashing out three new songs. During a break in the creativity, we were able to ask three of the five band members about the meaning behind their new song ‘Ruin Me’.
Beyond speaking about the song, Evan “EvRock” Brau, Sheldon R. Morley and Baron told us about some new developments, including an upcoming video in the making and an anticipated live date in Hollywood coming very soon.
Today it is with pleasure that we bring you a first look inside Manic Automatic’s new song ‘Ruin Me’, from their self titled seven song EP.
