Radar podcast #20: The Shivers on their Scots links
In this episode Stevie Kearney speaks to Jo Schornikov of Brooklyn band The Shivers, who are signed to Fence Records. We also have Berlin-based Scots Milwalkie, electro-pop from CHURCHES, cutting edge hip hop from MOG, the ethereal singer-songwriter Cara Mitchell and an exclusive track from...

Radar podcast #19
In this episode of the Scotsman Radar podcast we hear from Simon Ward about Errors' year so far, and their one-off show at The Arches in Glasgow tomorrow. We also have a track from Holy Mountain's riff-heavy debut album Earth Measures, new material from one of our tips for last year, The Son(s),...

Radar podcast #18
In this episode of the Radar Podcast, we present five tracks by a quintet of bands who our writers have tipped for success this year. Glasgow grunge trio PAWS, Aberdonian indie-pop outfit The Little Kicks, west coast slowcore collective Happy Particles and melodic Edinburgh group The Machine Room...

Radar podcast #17
Stevie Kearney brings you a festive feast of northern soul (and folk, and indie, and hip hop...). He is joined in the studio by Steven Milne, frontman of The Little Kicks (one of our bands of 2011 no less) and Lucy Pell belts out a stunning live version of her song 'I Fall Down'. Stevie also…

Radar podcast #16
In this edition of the Radar podcast we feature The Moth and The Mirror, a Glasgow band whose majestic debut album has been "a long time coming". Founding member Stacey Sievwright tells us about the long but rewarding experience of making of Honestly, This World (available now), and the former...

Radar podcast #15
What better excuse to revive the Radar podcast than having Stevie Kearney stand in the rain, somewhere near Aberdeen? Our North East correspondent braved the elements to report on the Wizard Festival, which brought together the old and the new last weekend, and caught up with DJ Jim Gellatly and...

Radar podcast #14
Podcasts shouldn't be quarterly affairs, but that's exactly what our one is threatening to become. Almost three months have passed since our last foray into iTunes, so we had to dust down the micophone and re-train our radio voices (cough) for this one. We'll be aiming for more regularity in…

Radar podcast #13
We could have saved some space in the title of this post and just called it The Plugcast. It's nothing to do with electrical appliances. Rather, this slightly overdue episode of the Radar Podcast contains repeated use of the words 'Radar', 'gig' and 'this Saturday' (what, you hadn't heard?) But...

Radar podcast #12
Once again the Radar Podcast is a leaner, meaner version of our (second and final) Edinburgh Festival radio show on Fresh Air. So we thought it would be fitting if we took the opportunity to focus on how the local music scene copes with the annual Fringe onslaught. Joining us to discuss the issue...

Radar podcast #11
The eleventh episode of the Radar Podcast is merely a condensed version of our Fresh Air radio show from Wednesday night. But stay with us here, because that means there's plenty of ad-libbing, there's more chat than usual, and there's a pleasant thrum of Pleasance Courtyard atmosphere through…

Radar podcast #10
We finally made double figures for the Radar Podcast and it only took us 14 months - but then again it's the quality, not the quantity, or so we tell ourselves. This time around we have irresistible pop via the brand new album by Glenrothes indie rascals Tango in the Attic and the debut single…

Radar podcast #9
We're worse than a minor celebrity on a chat show sofa when it comes to shamelessly promoting ourselves, and this month's podcast is unlikely to alter that image. That's because we've got interviews with two of the artists playing our inaugural Radar live event on Friday in Glasgow: Julian Corrie...

Radar podcast #8
Our latest podcast is all about the synths, sequencers and sine waves. By some strange coincidence, when Billy and I were drawing up the tracklisting for our eighth episode we soon realised that there was one common denominater: electronics. But equally, there's a huge range of sounds here, from...

Radar podcast #7
It was looking like it might never happen, but finally we have recorded our first podcast of 2010. Two months away from the microphone has rendered some of our chat slightly nonsensical (what's new?), but the standard of music on this podcast is probably the best so far... Running order: 00:00…

Radar podcast #6
Christmas. It might be chilly outside but it's hardly the coolest time of the year is it? We over-indulge in party snacks, strange, once-yearly liqueurs (eggnog?!) and belt-busting meals, before battening down the hatches on our little cocoons of reliable family customs, TV drowse-athons and…

Radar podcast #5
...or, the one where we went down to Edinburgh Oxjam, grabbed a few bands in various states of inebriation and recorded the results, with a few songs thrown in for good measure. Yep, that's pretty much what it says on the tin. We have interviews with Meursault, Boycotts, Dead Boy Robotics, The...

Radar podcast #4.5
A couple of months back we pondered the question of whether an unsigned band can achieve a reasonable degree of success without the backing of industry 'pros'. At the time it seemed to hit a nerve with our readers, causing a minor flurry of surprisingly well-informed, illuminating comments (for…

Radar podcast #4
It may be old news now, but the ripples of record sales cast by the Mercury Music Prize are still being felt across the industry. Following our editorial on the subject a couple of weeks ago, we discuss the outcome (or more accurately, Billy vents his fury!), and whether the concept of the awards...
-
Radar podcast #3
Unsurprisingly, this is the third podcast from Under the Radar. This time it's all about the music: we have an exclusive new track from Trapped in Kansas, a Springsteen cover by Beerjacket and new singles by UtR-featured Randan Discotheque and The Seventeenth Century. On top of that, Stevie…

Radar podcast#2
The second podcast from Under the Radar. This time we investigate the situation of modern day music journalism in depth, enlisting viewpoints from both sides of the journos vs bloggers divide. We also have tracks by a fine array of UtR-tipped bands, including There Will Be Fireworks and Cancel…

Radar podcast #1
The inaugural Under the Radar podcast. As well as songs from the likes of Mitchell Museum, Yahweh and The Gothenburg Address, Billy caught up with rising Edinburgh electronica artist Dollskabeat for an exclusive interview. Running order: 00:50: Mitchell Museum - Take the Tongue Out 03:52: Dupec -...
