Petti Hendrix came by the idobi Radio studios to talk all about his new EP CHOOSE LIFE, which is officially out via MDDN Records before his first show in LA in Bardot as a part of September’s Emo Nite. Since it was beforehand, I have to fill y’all in—the performance was awesome. It’s one of the only live sets I’ve gotten to see at Emo Nite and Petti proved to be a rockstar on stage. He and Hooks crushed it up there and I can’t wait for him to come back out here for a show. For an up-and-comer—Petti has… Read more »
Riot Games announced Linkin Park as the performing artist for the 2024 League Of Legends World Championship Anthem, “Heavy Is The Crown.”
Chloe Moriondo just dropped an introspective, earnest track, “September” via Public Consumption/Fueled By Ramen. The single will appear in the forthcoming adventure game Life Is Strange: Double Exposure and its soundtrack. “I was trying to write a song that’s about someone who’s been through a lot. I wanted to emphasize the importance of a really good support system and friend group, especially when things are really tough,” Moriondo shared. “And I won’t regret it, I won’t regret ever holding you this closely/And I’ll try to get it right/To have you on my side,” the artist sings with sweet indie vocal… Read more »

Indie sleaze summer is alive and well in summer 2024 with help from London’s beloved Bloc Party. The indie-rockers surprised fans with their new single, “Flirting Again,” their first offering since 2022’s Alpha Games. The punchy, sonically unique single is utterly refreshing, and a welcome addition to this year’s indie playlists. Vocalist Kele Okereke says, “‘Flirting Again’ is about being thrust back into the scene and trying to remember how it all works. It’s about trying to appear desirable, whilst at the same time hiding the hurt that defines you.” Okereke continues, “We are all carrying around the various scars that… Read more »
There’s a time to be serious, and there’s a time for fun and games. Well, for Patrick Gilchrist—the charismatic vocalist of Not My Weekend—and Jared Gaines—the mastermind behind Rat Park, touring guitarist for Scary Kids Scaring Kids, and former Hopeless Records signee with his project Vaines—they never take life too seriously. In fact, they’re so laid back, they’re practically horizontal. As Los Angeles transplants grinding in the music industry, the two have partnered up with idobi Radio to exclusively launch their new show titled The Mean Time. Episodes are scheduled to air every Tuesday at 6 PM ET/3 PM PT,… Read more »
Indie-rockers The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die returned with their latest music since 2021, “Auguries Of Guilt” via Epitaph Records. The Connecticut-formed act lyrically examines and challenges the notion of what makes a hero. “Like the hero killing the guardian of the forest/Set a white-hot flame to the cedars reduced to wasteland,” the band sings. Vocalist David Bello says of the track, “The people in stories that get labeled as heroes are often brutal killers, capable of extreme greed and cruelty on behalf of their allies and their desires. This song tries to smudge historical… Read more »
