Simply put - are you a music fan? Are you one of those people who, like me, grew up when broadcast radio stations actually rocked or jammed? Remember when the DJ's actually knew something about the music they were playing? Remember when you turned on the radio, picked a station and left it jamming until bedtime? Are you also one of them people who used to open Hit Parader, Rolling Stone, or Guitar Magazine to name a few as a kid, and remember wanting to be a rockstar or a MC or a Hip-Hop artist? Being in the spotlight or for whatever reason you had to become a successful musician/artist(s)? I do it was but a dream…. But now a reality! This is NCCR Magazine & Radio and we have music for damn near everyone -except people who don't like good music! I began forming NCCR Magazine formally aka NorCal Concert Reviews back in 2002, as a Freelance Concert Photographer and as a kind of a hobby and took to the camera as if it was my calling? Then as time went on I created started my own Concert Review Magazine. So now that the year 2009 is upon us, We are proud to announce that as of March 2009 we give you NCCR Magazine & Radio! Back in the mid 90's I remember all of the stations in my town sucked so much ass it made me want to puke. Fucking corporate buyouts of every good rock/metal station or hip-hop/rap stations in town! The never ending influence of the city counsel what a joke, and still is! left us with little to nothing but the same old shit day in and out. So I started brainstorming………. Years later we have rocked millions and covered lots of shows people and continue to be one of the most successful music magazines out there? Why? The reason is simple - listen to all the other stations and tell me what you hear? If you say 'little closed minded formats that play one type of rock and one type only" you're right. Most of our competitors out there in the past and present play only one type of music. Maybe it's gothic metal, maybe it's classic rock, maybe it's 80's Rock, or hip-hip- but it's damn near impossible to find a station that plays a little bit of everything and that's what makes us unique. You won't hear this kind of rock mix anywhere else in this high of quality for free but here. The station came about from my own musical influences from listening to my hometown station KIXY-94.7 and the The Fire-101.9. The DJ's definitely were not these corporate trained morons we have all over anymore - these guys (and yes, gals) knew their music because they were fans too. From the early days on I learned about bands like Zeppelin, Floyd, Hendrix, Rush, Skynyrd, KISS, Deep Purple, Metallica, Ratt, Megadeth, Slayer, Atreyu, just to name a few.. You named it and they played it. When you grow up around music like that, plain old radio just don't cut it. You need a kind of mix of rock/metal/hip-hop music that most are afraid to touch. We're not! If you're like me and you dig the fuck out of kick ass music, with no boundaries, then add yourself as a friend today and join us as we broadcast, write, and shoot photos this fucking planet like it's never seen before!
