The Broken Cassette Player

By: Shred (Edward Jacobs)
  • Summary

  • It's a new music show (mostly) hosted by 20-year WBCN veteran dj Shred. We believe we need to keep moving forward with what we listen to and want to share our musical findings with as many folks as we possibly can, because we feel the bands we play should be more widely heard like it used to happen when a band was giving airplay on the local radio station. I come from that world and think we need to continue to push it for a bigger audience to enjoy and give these bands a lifeblood. Email us at teamshred@comcast.net for feedback. Thanks!

  • The Broken Cassette Player, episode 59
    May 3 2024

    Yes, we have reached episode 59 of the former WBCN dj Shred-produced new music podcast that exposes 5 great tunes each week (or less) for you to tap into your collection of good bands you listen to. We do know listening to Pink Floyd can get rather tedious and boring at times. Once again, we have the most amazing for you to hear and this week challenge you to have ever heard of any of our bands: Huron John, Holy Nowhere, Night Beds, Gelax and Pacing all have songs that are worth your time. I know, it's just so precious. Really, get over it. Have fun.

    18:49 of free listening fun on Amazon music is our fave platform.

  • The Broken Cassette Player, episode 58
    Apr 30 2024

    The Broken Cassette Player podcast (criminally under-listened) hosted by 20-year WBCN dj Shred hits episode 58 with 5 more unreal songs you need to hear by A Carousel Moon, Pearl Jam (yes, that band), The Beaches, The Last Dinner Party and Wallows all pack a wallop if you'll allow yourself to hear them.

    Maybe if you do listen, you can message us you did. 20:37 of pure free listening fun on our favorite platform, Amazon Music.

    We think our counter is disastrously wrong. But who knows, maybe no really does hear this. We got you.
