The new Hip Hop and R&B station, 93.7 The Beat, has been creating a buzz in the city of Houston, since they launched earlier this year. They have now announced the “H-Town Beatdown” which will take place at BBVA Compass Stadium on Friday, June 20th. Performers include Kendrick Lamer, J.Cole, Trey Songz, and Future. Houston’s […]
This past Tuesday a legend visited our great city. She brought along Tennessee Singer/Songwriter, Valerie June, who charmed the audience with her blues, country, bluegrass and soul stylings. If they didn’t know who she was when they walked in, they sure knew June when she left the stage. After a short intermission, the curtain pulled […]
2012: A Year In Retrospect, via List Format If the world is really going to end tomorrow, I might as well talk about some cool shit that has happened musically in 2012. Well, to be honest, not all of it is cool. Some of it may be pretty terrible. Its up to you I suppose. Anyways, […]
Hi. Hello. Yo, what’s up. My name’s Samantha. I run The Traveling Show here on Coog Radio, but you probably know me better as that girl who subbed in for your favorite CR shows this semester. I’ve had a blast hanging out with you guys on air — from the occasional (and completely accidental) innuendos, […]
If you are not familiar with my show, I spun the tunes Sunday nights since CR’s inception in 2011 while somewhere in the midst landing a job at nation’s oldest continuously operating recording studio. Juggling the two tasks along with school was character building to say the least, but completely rewarding nonetheless. After a great […]
https://soundcloud.com/iamjaylotus/jaylotus-the-love-movement Jay Lotus is self described as a “saxophonist turned producer,” and it definitely shows. His albums, all instrumental, expertly wrap hip-hop beats over a groove-laden core. Other tracks capture the improvisational nature of jazz while mixing the skilled hands of a producer at a drum machine. If you’re looking for the perfect study music, […]
Despite the name, Houston is a band who (as far as we know) hasn’t even visited the Bayou City. In fact, we aren’t even sure they’ve ventured outside their native Sweden. Despite all this, we are sure of one thing: their sound is as diverse and multifaceted as it’s namesake. It could be described as one part […]
Tons of amazing psychedelic acts including CR Comp Vol. 2 contributor Vinyl Williams on the bill, and more to be announced in January. This is definitely a Texas music festival you’ll want to catch. AUSTIN PSYCH FEST – APRIL 26-28 2013 – PASSES HERE
It looks we won’t have to (though we still want to, real bad). In fact, this doesn’t feel like a CR COMP fest, it practically is one. Not one, not two, but three COOG Radio Compilation contributors (Stephen Farris, Josiah Gabriel, FLCON FCKER) will be performing along side producers NO SIR E, JAY LOTUS, Babel Fishh, […]
Glass The Sky is a band with a large pallet. The band’s sound delves in atmospheric soundscapes formed by sonically adventurous dual guitars and lush key work, yet is grounded with a more progressive rhythm section. It’d be easy to categorize the sound as “post-rock” if not for the band’s clever use of clarinet, vocal […]
https://soundcloud.com/reverberationappreciation/the-ufo-club-july Texas serves as a hub that covers a lot of music scenes and subcultures. Whether it be post-rock (EITS, This Will Destroy You), hip-hop (DJ Screw, Bun B, Pimp C, etc), or folk/americana/country (Willie Nelson, Robert Ellis, Hayes Carl, etc), Texas’ musical roots go pretty deep, but arguably not as deep as its roots […]
