Radio Producer > Tonight, Monika's special show @ poplie.eu!

Tonight at my radio show (at poplie.eu), I'm doing a special 2-hours program dedicated to young, Greek singer/songwriter Monika (her second album "exit" is going to be released this Monday 10/05/2010). You will hear songs from her debut album "avatar", many demos, participations in Greek groups, some rarities & b-sides, and of course some trivia about the artist. 

So tune-in at 20:00 (local time) and enjoy the show!

ps. the artwork for the e-flyer (above) was done by me. It's a rejected illustration from the "avatar" album... I made some design changes and used it as an e-flyer. Recycling is good!!!

ps2. you can download (FOR FREE) the amazing "BP Diet" font from the Back Packer site (go to "typefaces" section and scroll down a bit. tip: you should check and all the other fonts that back packer designed for you)!

ps3. click on the above image, in order to see it bigger :D

Poplie promo > Remembering Kazaa!

Some hours ago, I found an old dvd-disc full of mp3 songs that I have downloaded from Kazaa (remember???). Tears came in my eyes. So many good tunes and of course some "wtf?" songs, mash-ups and covers. You can hear some of them in today's show, in a couple of hours.

Great news! From the upcoming Friday (25th of September) you can hear my radio show "Mellon Collie & the Infinite Sunlight" at PopLie e-radio (a brand new greek e-radio, with great radio producers). My show starts at 20:00 and lasts for 2 hours. I will be playing mostly alternative & electro music (some of my favorite tracks from early '90s and up to now) and between tracks there will be some talk about the things that I find interesting (movies, comics, tv, athens nightlife e.t.c).

All you have to do is visit the official site of PopLie and download the e-player on your computer (the e-player is via media player or quicktime). You can also be a member at PopLie's facebook group.

Every Saturday I will be uploading here on the blog, the playlist of last night's show.
