CKMS Community Connections for 22 June 2020

22 June 2020 Bob Jonkman Leave a comment

Although show hosts are back in the studio, we’re still not open for guests. So today I’m catching up on some of the artists I didn’t get to last week, and revisiting the music of some previous guests.

There’ll be podcasts for those episodes with guests in the studio, or on the phone. But today, it’s just the music list.

–Bob.

Here’s hoping this is the last week the Radio Waterloo studios are closed! Programmers and show hosts should be back in the studio soon, and hopefully we’ll be able to have guests later this summer. So here’s another show of old & new Canadian Content music, with a distinct Canadiana Country flavour.

CKMS Community Connections for 1 June 2020

1 June 2020 Bob Jonkman Leave a comment

Another week, another hour of Canadian Content music. We would have had Woody Woodburn as our guest for an interview and a Live, On-Air, In-Studio performance, but the studio is still closed for the Covid pandemic. Happily, Woody has released an album Better Man Today, so we’ll be playing some of those tracks.

The studio is being prepared for re-opening — we’re equipping it with hand sanitizer, cleaning wipes, and mic socks. In a couple of weeks we can have our programmers back in the studio, and we’ll open to studio guests some time after that.

In the meantime, here’s an hour of old and new CanCon for your listening pleasure!

18 May 2020 Bob Jonkman Leave a comment

Chris Sherren at the microphone — Chris Sherren

Today is Victoria Day, a statutory holiday in Canada, and a day when Chris Sherren who fronts Deaf By Design would have been available for a Live, On-Air, In-Studio performance and interview. But we’re still in the middle of the Covid pandemic, and the studio is still closed. So there’s only recorded music today, and we start off with a few tracks by Chris.

Be sure to check out Chris’s show Into The Void, which airs Fridays from 10:00pm to 11:00pm, with a replay on Sundays at 6:30pm.

And we have Canadian Content music at two extremes of the genre spectrum: Technical Death Metal, Black Metal, Progressive Death Metal, and Alternative Metal, all followed by Alternative Rock, Synth Rock, and maybe some Folk.

There have been no podcasts for the CKMS Community Connections music shows; podcasts will resume once we have guests back in the studio.

CKMS Community Connections for 11 May 2020

11 May 2020 Bob Jonkman Leave a comment

I would have had Toronto Hiphop artist Kwazzi in the studio today, but we’re still closed for the Covid pandemic. So I’m playing a brand new track Handouts, as well as some tracks from his Belligerent album. Say it with me: “Kwa-Zay”! He’s addicted to Instagram, so check him out at @therealkwazzi.

I’m also featuring local Kitchener Hiphop artist Sam Nabi, with some tracks from his new album Attract Hazard. You can find Sam and his music on Bandcamp.

And to round out the hour, there’s a bunch of new (to me) CanCon music from Indigenous artists in the Nikamowin catalogue.

There’s no guest in the studio, so it’s a full hour of Canadian Content music. Sadly, there’s not even a music list today. But we can crowdsource it! Have a listen to the podcast, and if you can, jot down all the songs and artists you hear, then leave a comment with your list.
