Insomnia Radio: New York #5 – Cow On The Loose
August 30, 2006
By: Nefarious Bovine & Jason Evangelho
Submitted: 8/30/2006
Hey gang, Jason here! Episode 5 of IR:NY could have been called “Total Team Effort.” Admittedly, I do prefer “Cow on the Loose.” As Ren’s Powerbook breathed it’s last, she passed the mic over to her quasi-evil overlord to record the show, and I had a listen and threw down some shownotes. Wait, so what did Ren do? Well she gave Sean the perfect opportunity to begin his hostile takeover of IR:NY…crap, I hope Ren isn’t reading this…
Enjoy the show, it’s a keeper!
Honeycreeper: Five Degrees of Me
From the Album: Freaqualizer | Grab Propaganda
Zerobridge: This is My Version
We’re not sure how Zerobridge snagged legendary guitarist Earl Slick of David Bowie fame, but we’re happy they did. For prior releases, check out the music page.
Casey Shea: Lartigue & To Lose a Friend
The CD is only 5 bucks!
Casey Shea gigs:
09/15 – The Undisputed Heavyweights - Rockwood Music Hall – 9PM – 196 Allen Street (between Houston and Allen)
09/28 – Solo – Pussycat Lounge – 8PM – 196 Allen Street (between Houston and Allen)
09/30 – The Undisputed Heavyweights - Rockwood Music Hall – 11PM – 196 Allen Street (between Houston and Allen)
Elika: We Stay The Same

Get over to the forum and chat it up with the IR Family
No bovines were harmed in the making of this episode.
Stop listening and go support your local indie bands!
Jason, Ren, and Sean out..

Insomnia Radio: New York #4 – Mystery Meat
August 17, 2006
Author: Ren)
(Date Submitted: 8/17/2006)
After an unexpected and unavoidable hiatus, IR:NY returns with a slightly tweaked playlist format, as well as a newly appointed Quasi-Evil Overlord [which simply is a must for any Benevolent Despot]!
I’m oh so very sorry to have been MIA, rocklings, but since this is a total labor of love for me, I’m afraid that there will be times where I simply lack the time and/or energy to produce a quality show – and you deserve a quality show. [Being unable to pay my bills simply isn't an acceptable option.]
Instead of an indefinitely dead content stream, though, my dear friend Sean White [aka the Nefarious Bovine of the delightfully rambling Nefarious Bovine Radio Podcast] will step-in and give you the goods, as only my Second-in-Command could!
Episode #4 is chock-full of tracks of his choosing. [Well, I chose 'My Ex-Wife' but I digress.]
While we may periodically be co-host cohorts, I’ll remain your primary guide and Sean shall be the able-and-amiable substitute. For this show, however, you shall be subjected to the inanity that ensues when he and I get together… like discussing the Star Wars Holiday Special and other absurdities.
Enjoy!
The Awesome
Makar – I Hate My Job
99 Cent Dreams [Buy it!]
[MySpace page]
Makar is a 15th century Scottish term meaning ‘poet’. It’s also the name of a dark and groovy, acoustic guitar and piano driven, little indie band from New York City. All of Makar wants to give up their day jobs – happily and ecstatically – so they can write and play music all day every day. After all, writing a song like ‘I Hate My Job’ is not just a coincidence.
ATOMIC TOM – Movie Screens & Magazines
Anthems For The Disillusioned[Buy it @ CD Baby!] or [Buy it @ iTunes!]
[MySpace page]
Atomic Tom is fed and watered by Luke White. While pursuing his personal obsession with Star Wars actresses, he’s amassed an array of minor triumphs as a musician and entertainer. Born in Virginia to a local jazzman and an Italian-American political activist, Luke mastered guitar + keys + drums at an obscenely young age and went on to study at the prestigious Berklee College of Music. Currently, he lives in Brooklyn with actress Megan Manzi and a plastic figurine of Queen Amidala.
Doll Hospital – Man In The Middle || My Ex-Wife
Doll Hospital [Buy it @ CD Baby!] or [Buy it @ Amazon!]
[MySpace page]
Noir swing story-songs, filled with black humor and flailing vibraphone mallets, sung by an unusual girl, Doll Hospital is the vaguely malformed brainchild of downtown NYC music-scene mainstay Heather Eatman. Featuring Heather on arch-top guitar and vocals, Nick Mancini on vibraphone, Andrew Burns on drums and Jim Whitney on string bass, this tiny wayward orchestra takes us on a swinging tour of the fevered mind of a songwriter who loves Raymond Chandler as much as Raymond Scott.
There is simply NO WAY that I couldn’t love this stuff, rocklings. So much so that this is the current front-runner for my fave album of 2006.
Raliss – The Piano Song
Electro – [Buy it @ iTunes!]
[MySpace page]
This track by Raliss is Sean’s pick for closing out the show. With songs inspired by true stories comprised mostly of broken hearts and ironic twists, singer-songwriter Dan and guitarist-songwriter Dugans are joined by player x on bass and player y on drums. Despite the song’s title, there is a distinct lack of piano but no dearth of guitar. We don’t mind, though. We like guitar.
