Live On Air! Broadcast royalties, new music advocates and rad humans, Alyx Holcombe (BBC Radio 1) and Alex Baker (Kerrang! Radio), are our guests on Episode 292 of Sappenin' Podcast! Recorded live on stage at Download Festival 2024, these radio legends team up, to reveal insightful advice for aspiring musicians, how to get played on international stations and wacky examples of industry breakthroughs. In this conversation, Holcombe and Baker walk us through their day to day radio responsibilities, searching for fresh blood, what really gets their attention, production vs imagery, copycat bands, authenticity, song icks, CD scratches, weird messages, publicity stunts, golfball pizzas, TikTok trends, social media heartbreak, the MySpace scene, illegally streaming Enter Shikari, industry plants, their own awkward band moments, embarrassing phone calls, trusting different perspectives, unique approaches, artists you need to see live, a unopened USB condom and more! Turn it up and join Sean and Morgan to find out Sappenin' this week!
