Internet radio station to provide exposure to acclaimed indie hip-hop artists.
New York, NY (PRWEB) June 22, 2006 -- The most innovative hip-hop artists who are not being played on traditional radio will break through to a listening audience of more than three million when BreakThru Radio (BTR) launches “The Third Rail.” “The Third Rail,” hosted by renowned Bay Area DJs Just Jay and Ras Cue will air from June 26 through July 2 on www.breakthruradio.com.
BTR is devoted to giving a voice to talented, upcoming artists. Unlike traditional radio, BTR has no restrictions on style - playing rock, punk, hip hop, electronica, alt-country, reggae, metal, soul, et al. It is this feature that allows BTR to develop weekly specialty shows focusing on the different musical genres as well as indie record labels, music scenes from cities across the globe and more.
“Anyone who knows and loves hip hop music is tired of how image is everything in the genre,” said DJ Just Jay. “Our show is dedicated to preserving the true foundation of urban culture where the only thing that matters is the skill of the artists. Listeners will be treated to artists who remember the fundamentals of the old school while providing innovative audio stimulation for the new school.”
Since the inception of the BTR, more than 70 million listeners have logged on to hear the most unique hour on internet radio. In addition to The Third Rail, BTR has also showcased a variety of genres and scenes, including indie dance and electronica on “The Club Cavern,” “The Darkside Show,” devoted to heavy metal and hard rock, and “In the Mix,” a show hosted by DJ L - the queen of the southern underground - that highlights the Atlanta music scene. With new shows being broadcast every week, this is only a sample of the quality and variety found on BTR.
BTR broadcasts 24 hours a day on www.breakthruradio.com or www.NYTrack.com, New York's only website dedicated to the tri-state high school track community thus reaching over 5 million high school students.
