Transmission Nova arrives

During the beginning of #WEATNU – from 2015 – 2016, one of six of our radio streams “Transmission Nova“, played shoegaze and indierock, this included many other sounds from the late 70s onward into the 90s and today. Indie artists, many unsigned, were post-punk, noise rock, alt-rock, dream pop and ethereal. WEATNU Records has been releasing this type of music since December of 2014, upon its arrival in the indie scene of the underground.

Now … Transmission Nova will have the same great vision as WEATNU and put the focus on this type of music, just as WEATNU puts the focus on electronic based artists. Bands as well as solo artists are welcome to join. Nothing changes, but we instead expand. Indie Rock has always been a love for me, from the days of growing up during the early 90s when MTV’s the Buzz would blast the greatest and latest bands.

Being a shoegaze aficionado and part of Gen-X, these types of memories never fade. I wanted to give the underground a taste of even more, as now both WEATNU and Transmission Nova will help artists be heard. Guitar-driven noise, eerie washed out vocals, experimental bass lines and visions by Ian Curtis. All these things tied into one place for this music to thrive. Shoegaze coming from the days of Batcave and Goth, and then the 90s grunge-like sounds, with noise-driven indie rock, British alternative, and other gloomy settings. Transmission Nova opens in 2022, and it is my hope to get these artists heard and signed with us. Contact today, as slots are open (for a time)

Shoegaze | Post-punk | Punk | Ethereal | Indie Pop | indie rock | Dream pop, and other psychedelics

Shoegaze comes to #WEATNU

By Almark 

For myself shoegaze is an old friend, hailing from my teen years in the early 90s, especially with bands like Starflyer 59, The Breeders, The Smashing Pumpkins, The Pixies, Sonic Youth, Juliana Hatfield who are more indie rock and even Nirvana. When you deal with the underground you deal with it all, electronic to post-rock, then shoegaze and post-punk. For an entire year WEATNU has progressed from having one station to 4, and its latest station has taken the opportunity to allow more British Rock and ‘shoegaze’ through its doors. Continuing in the tradition of helping DIY artists and bands, it has decided to embrace more obscure styles and shoegaze seemed a perfect fit. And why not? Great music is hidden, it isn’t found on top 40. Bands and solo artists alike can benefit from WEATNU, because it’s free. Transmission Nova, will play many styles of noise rock, indie pop, dream pop, ethereal even bat cave eventually, including goth. So indeed Transmission Nova is the guitar side to ‘We are the New Underground.’ This brings even more fans to this movement. Our roots will always be in the electronic, and shoegaze is closely related to electronic music. Joy Division were experimenting with the new wave sound long before it was popular. So it’s not surprising that they, minus Ian Curtis became New Order. WEATNU is about preserving the history of music, including electronic music and more. The underground should be and is appreciated here. It’s obvious that the world is craving something more, something pure, and underground music fits that criteria. We hope in time to bring some of these artists to Weatnu Records. So far we have been featuring music by Ummagma, including the releases on Raphalite Records as well Shameless Promotion. In time,  by allowing these fantastic musicians through our doors, it will ensure that both sides meet, and the music created throughout WEATNU will grow and flourish across the Internet, making a name for ourselves and our artists. (Transmission Nova closed in 2016, this is part of #WEATNU history.)
