Real Splashy Radio presents:

When I first heard “Buffalo”, the new tape from Scuml°rd & Cauzndefx, I was blown away by the evolution of Scummy’s sound. We’ve known each other for quite some time and I heard some of those first beats they ever made. To watch them grow and create this masterpiece is nothing short of inspiring. The link up with Cauz during the pandemic brought forth not only a new fire underneath to propel them forward, but it shattered the original self-induced ceiling. We chatted about this experience among other topics such as the current over-saturation of rap music on the internet, the inverse lack of sufficient music journalism, and we got to talk about the journey that brought them to us today. You’re Scum & Real Splashy & I love you. Hope you enjoy!

Real Splashy Radio presents:

Trying to embrace the positive a bit more and what better way is there to do that than through music? The sun has been radiating love and light and the frequencies are just right to create some head-bobs and sweet, sweet smiles. I hope you enjoy this mix that I have prepared. The artist interviews will continue next week. I wanted to use this episode as a canvas to paint the image that should hopefully speak to what I am listening to currently/listen to on the regular-degular. Some friends and favorites will be featured in the mix as always as well as some new discoveries! Join me as we continue spanning far and wide through the genres that bend the bodies in all sorts of wonderful ways. This is the Wendigo mix, something to play to let you know “when to go”. Whether you’re on the move or just racing through your mind. From Splashtown with Love!

End Of The Century presents:

51-52% of the world population identifies as female, but we get one designated month out of the year to celebrate women. What’s more, studies show that there is still a pervasive gender imbalance within the music industry in all aspects: far fewer women are encouraged or empowered to make music, fewer women artists are played on the radio, fewer women songwriters get credited, fewer women are hired as producers, fewer women artists are nominated for awards, fewer women DJs get air-time, which results in the fact that fewer women’s voices and are heard and listened to despite the fact that they make up just over half of the population. WRIR works to combat this gross imbalance with a mission to provide a platform for underrepresented views and voices and in 2021 reported the following facts:

● Women host over half of WRIR’s programming compared to a quarter of average radio airtime nationally.

● WRIR is the only station in Richmond that airs any programming by and for the LGBTQ+ community … This Way Out … The Dyke Agenda … Queer Intersections.
● WRIR is the only station in Richmond airing Indigenous produced programming … First Nations Radio and InterTribal
● WRIR airs content centering the lives and culture of Black people with talk programming Sojourner Truth and Race Capitol and music shows like Motherland Influence and The Other Black Music with ~38% of shows hosts identified as people of color.

Representation matters so in light of the data, DJ Miss Kitty is playing two hours of non-stop women who rocked the End of the Century. Party on!

Real Splashy Radio presents:

Another instrumental break to cap off a wonderful round of interviews. Let this be an important reminder to take time for yourself every now and then, whatever that looks like for you. This is another wonderful experience I get to have each week, the fact that I get to have this platform and opportunity to conversate with some of my favorite local artists, and then also on top of that meeting new individuals while on the search for music discovery. Sometimes schedules can be more complex and that’s when an impactful change from the usual flow can be beneficial for everyone. I hope that these 2 hour instrumental sessions are just as pleasurable as the episodes that feature guests and delightful conversation. These breaks also allow me to practice my sexy radio voice, which I will not compromise on! Featuring music from Yoki, Scumlord, Dogfuck, Bstfrnd, Dignan, ScoopKid, Cashby, Ohbliv, Clwdwlkr, Help! I’m Stuck in the Computer!, Charles Benjamin, Archangel, Sofia Lakis, UNCKLE, and many more. Big love from Big Splash!

Real Splashy Radio presents:

Join us fellow music lovers for this very special episode 10 of Real Splashy Radio. Got the chance to tag up with the young, but not young at heart, EB, of Manipulated Records. We connected over several topics and got to break down who he is not only as an artist, but throughout our conversation I felt like we both got a deeper understanding of himself as a person. Periodt. It was a pleasure to talk to him about art, music, he expressed to me his interest in screenwriting for films and we got to go over a few of his own personal favorites. We shared thoughts on the future, past, present, and everything in between. Tune in to listen in-depth. Be sure to keep all eyes and ears on EB and Manipulated Records!
