Review of Friday Night At Epiphany'sA well constructed essay with interview tape and music about a young woman's "encounter" with heavy metal/ hardcore/ punk music. The producer gets inside these labels and offers some revealing insights. Some great tape, especially Josh, lead singer from the band Millenium Travesty, recreating the growls and grunts he makes on stage. The first growl is particulalry memorable - that was his own voice making that reverb?

Review of Friday Night At Epiphany'sNice piece, great use of sounds and descriptions. I promise I will only give a few suggestions because I know how hard it is to do a piece like this. With so much to stay and such little time to say it all you did great. Be careful when using narration over background noise, in one part the background was so strong (loud) it took away from what you were saying. Also it sounds so cheesy when you say in narration ?I asked why? it would be better if you did it in the interview clear enough to cut in the tape, because it engages listeners more, instead of taking us to one scene then another then back again. Now back to the good part, you have a great voice for radio, in it your ethnicity comes through (great!). I think your piece is helping me and probably many others, to understand and like Metal music more, something I always hear and see but never pay attention to fully. Again really good job, you rock!!! |

Review of Friday Night At Epiphany's
Are you the type of person who only listens to one type of music? Well if you are, listen to Claudia Villa explain her first experience in the hardcore/metal music scene. From Scene kids to straightedge this segment gives you a peek into the music lives of others. Claudia is brave enough to adventure from her regular gangsta rap to Metal. This piece is one of the best on music I have heard in the late. The mix of commentary, interview, and radio diary is great and the backround music is nicely mixed in. Have fun.
