Hosting Mind Set Radio Hour

Mind Set Radio Hour

Back in 2006 I began producing an "indie" alternative music style podcast called, "Orion's Indie Podcast". I had a few motivations for doing this, one of them being that I was working with several local and unsigned bands at the time helping with promotions. Doing things like designing album artwork, flyer's, t-shirts and aiding in getting their music played on various internet radio stations. This leads me my next my point about my motivation for doing this. That is, I was tired of hearing the same old bands being played on alternative radio stations. I felt that the good ones out there were being passed up. I figured by creating this podcast it would be another way to help bands that would like there music played across the world wide web. The potential to reach a large audience is unlimited this way. I began to get submissions from bands and managed to put out around 35 episodes. These podcasts were merely playlists no commentary, my goal was to keep it simple and to the point, that being the listeners just wanted to hear music. Due to bandwidth fees I had to stop producing them after a couple years.

Fast forward to 2012 and I'm back hosting another music podcast at Mind Set Central called "Mind Set Radio Hour". I share hosting responsibilities on this podcast with the other cast members from Mind Set Central from time to time. The premise of this podcast is to play music with thoughts and commentary. It can be based on any theme really just depends on who is hosting. For example, one of the hosts did a radio hour episode that just featured Beatles music.

When I get the opportunity to host I play new indie and alternative bands much like I did on Orion's Indie Podcast. I also like to talk a little about the bands, where you can find them and get their music. My goal is to have you experience music you won't hear on your regular radio dial, discover new bands and all while taking your mind off things as you zone out to the great tunes. I always say, "I am hear to take your mind off of reality and put you in the vibes of the music." Well, what are you waiting for?! Get over to the site and subscribe for free to the podcast. I typically post new episodes every two weeks. Enjoy and rock on!
