Erk FM: International 483 – Sitting On The Couch

September 17, 2014 Erk Erk FM: International 1

Continuing back at looking back at music across Channel Erk, Erk features an alternative online music festival called Couch X Couchwest.

While CXCW requires video to be filmed from anywhere that isn’t a stage, there are some tracks on this episode that have been recorded in a studio environment. Some of the songs on this episode, however, are played directly from the artist’s CXCW video submission. You can see many videos that have been created for CXCW plus a lot more about the World’s Best Online Music Festival at the official CXCW website. Thank you to the CXCW team for involving me in the festival this year & helping me to promote this show while I am promoting the festival. This episode starts with a couple of new submissions by artists that have appeared on Erk FM before. Then various artists who won CXCW awards are featured.

Song submissions:

2 for 1 – Bluejay (direct)
Shut Up & Love Me – The Dead Exs (direct)
Blue House Pink – Oxen (direct)
House Of The Rising Sun – Sci-fi Romance (direct)
