HELP!
I'm running out of songs to play on our show. Suggestions??? I need song titles! Albums! Canadian artists/groups strongly preferred. It's actually kind of limited to its availability in the CD library in Radio-Canada, but if I can have a longer list I can check if they're in the discotheque. Preferrably not the current batch of sort-of known Canadian indie bands, cos it's very likely I've already played them or checked their availability. It's OK if it's more obscure but good though, as my knowledge is pretty much limited to those covered by Pitchfork and company. Other genres outside of indie rock are strongly welcomed too, as my knowledge is even more meager there.

gah, songs on myspace are a no-go cos I can't even download them onto my computer and ask the technician to transfer them onto the programme software. if you really want your band to be played in China, send a sample to:

Emission Chinoise
Radio Canada International
1400, boulevard René-Lévesque Est
Montréal QC
Canada
H2L 2M2
please. ;)

anyway just kidding (well or maybe not). strangely enough I've been working in radio for almost a year now, as a "real job" and all... and get paid really well for it. I've never thought I would be in broadcast before though, since I get nervous so easily talking to more than two people. Print has always been what interests me, but I guess that's how things usually work out. As a 'researcher' I'm not on-air regularly, but I have this segment on the show that I spotlight a (preferably Canadian) artist/group about 3 or 4 times a week (it's a daily show). even if it's not strictly canadian, any 'canadian connection' counts... argh, Can-con is the most evil thing, if you ask me.
