  • Ep.#24 Take a slow ride with Orlando band SLOW from 1991

    31/01/2016 Duration: 23min

      What we see and here is not only a gift from Ian via Ink 19. If is a fine example of early 90's Grunge. Proof that Grunge was pretty much everywhere at the time. I had the pleasure to see this Orlando based band play a few times. They always had great musicianship and good hair.   Self Titled : SLOW Release date: 1991 Produced by Mark Mason and Slow Recorded at the Bat Cave Track list: - Fluid Flowers - Indian Red - Six     Sites:  dontfreak.tumblr.com facebook.com/dont freak audio zine email: dontfreakzine@gmail.com   host/producer: Adriaan Mol

  • Ep. #23 Mix Tape of early 90's Florida HC bands

    22/02/2015 Duration: 40min

        The Orlando Music History Group on Facebook has been blowing up lately.  So much I thought it might be time to play this cassette.  A lot of the bands on this cassette have been piping in and sharing old stories, posters, and merch. It has been very entertaining to say the least.     This is side A of a mix tape of Florida bands.  Most of whom were from the Orlando area.  It is a good representation of the Hardcore (and some of the Metalcore) community during the early 90's.  The cassette was made by Andrew Chadwick of Gainesville for Ian Koss of Ink 19 / WFIT.  It is made up of demos and 7"s and is very lo-fi because of it's vintage.  Thank to Ian for sending it in!     Sites:  dontfreak.tumblr.com facebook.com/dont freak audio zine email: dontfreakzine@gmail.com   host/producer: Adriaan Mol
