Who can forget the thrill of unearthing new music during the wild era of illegal downloads on Limewire or Frostwire? Or the excitement of tirelessly page hopping across Myspace profiles only to stop once you’d stumbled upon who you were certain would be the next greatest underground artist? Ahh, the good ‘ole days, a golden period. Fortunately, discovering new music isn’t as challenging these days. Especially with idobi Radio by your side *wink wink*. Somewhere in the depths of a muggy basement or a beatdown garage, the next greatest artist is crafting, writing, and recording—chronicling the soundtrack of the next… Read more »

The music of season 5 brought the heat! Taking place in the late ’80s, Stranger Things featured prominent figures of the decade, including Prince, and of course, the incomparable Kate Bush, whose “Running Up That… Read more »

Ah, the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. A hallowed American institution and a can’t-miss event for Garfield fans. As the New York City-based parade progresses through the streets, so too does it run across almost every television screen in the nation. While the floats and balloons ranging from the Pillsbury Doughboy, Kermit The Frog, and Snoopy have remained iconic for years upon years, we are still fixated on the unbelievable alternative celebrity guest cameos through the mid-2000s and early 2010s. After all, what’s a better precursor to bizarre, unsolicited political dinner conversation than a live performance from Plain White T’s? These… Read more »

Acting as the fifth track on her March 2023-released sophomore album, Wisconsin, Carlie Hanson joined the idobi Radio team in our LA office to strip down her massively popular 2022 single, “Pretender.” Enveloped by the intimate strums of an acoustic guitarist echoing throughout the idobi Studios, Hanson‘s ’90s-inspired opus delves into the depths of her homesickness. The track undergoes a captivating transformation into a stripped-back anthem. With each chord, lyric, and hauntingly emotional delivery, the raw essence of the track pierces through the performance. Despite the cameras and glaring lights on her, she effortlessly creates an intimate soundscape. With each… Read more »

From our first release…to the brand new…this tracklist… Read more »
