Tobisonics and ExileFM's own Neil March (Trust the Doc) have spent the past week co-authoring a detailed article in response to all the debate on social media around plugging, promo, playlists, scammers, airplay etc. They cover how it actually works, what to do, what not to do and how to avoid being ripped off. And a whole lot more! Published on 23.01.21 by Fresh on the Net, this article is a candid and enlightening read for anyone involve in creating and promoting new music.
Additionally, our prolific, multi-talented and multi-tasking presenter Neil has recently published his latest book and another must-read for music and radio lovers, The History & Evolution of Popular......
Just three weeks ago, on what must have been the quietest St Patrick’s Day ever, it occurred to us here at ExileFM that pretty soon a lot of our listeners might well be stuck at home; and as a few of our presenters found themselves in the same situation we thought it might be nice to offer a safe, friendly weekday alternative to total isolation.DG went live with the first ‘Isolation Blues’ at 3pm that afternoon and a small companionable group of listeners expressed their wholehearted approval of the idea. It was another three days before the government made the lockdown official and halfway through the next week before the audience really took off, which was when Balou......
Our own Neil March is curating a Trust the Doc Festival on 4th April 2020 at the Amersham Arms in New Cross, London. We are honoured to be represented as a main stage alongside the Vanishing Point stage, and to be part of an event that features such exciting and innovative new music artists. Will Neil be broadcasting live on the day?! Watch this space....
This is a quick plug for kindred muso and "low-grade polymath" Neil March's excellent new book, The Independent Music Sector 2019, which was published earlier this year. Regular listeners to The Monday Night Ride-Out will be aware of Neil's passion for, and commitment to championing, previously unheard sounds - including through his weekly MNRO "Vanishing Point" feature. His writing is clear, pragmatic, and engaging, guiding readers through the practicalities and emotional turbulence of musical creativity and promotion.
"[T]he purpose of this book is not to offer a catch-all definition of what constitutes genuine independence in the current music industry. Its purpose is......
Check out Part Six of Neil March's "Emerging from the Mist", an "independent music conversation" which focuses on the genuinely independent (non-commercial) radio shows and stations...including ours...that are supporting new music. #NewMusicNewThinking

Whispering DG....
Interested in a UK-based, international, online (so far so familiar...) magazine (ah!) called The Riff, "devoted to covering jazz, blues, and related contemporary music"? Well, you should be...because they have the very good taste to feature our own Marc Golding in their latest edition. As Marc himself put it, "stardom can only be but moments away": http://www.theriffmagazine.co.uk/review-birth-of-the-cool-on-exilefm/

We're celebrating our first holiday season at ExileFM with an irreverently non-denominational "Xmas Special" featuring continuous broadcasting from 16:00 GMT on December 25th, 2017. Thanks to Zero and his scheduling wizardry, those who have pre-recorded and those who will be with you live, this is what you'll get for being good:
16:00-18:00 - So you've stuffed the stuffing, gobbled all the turkey up and pulled the crackers. The dishwasher's loaded, grandad's snoring on the sofa and you're still wearing that silly hat...Once you've taken that black bag of wrapping paper outside in your new slippers, it's time to pour yourself something nice and escape the Christmas afternoon stupor by......
