| QUOTES: “If you weren’t listening to the coolest radio show on the net last night, the one and only Radio Crystal Blue, then you
missed hearing “Nancy’s Song” from my debut CD Looking Ahead. Dan Herman has proven to be a major supporter of not only myself, but tons of indie musicians over the years. His Sunday night shows are eclectic with a capital E. No big corporations telling him what to play. Dan plays what the heck he wants to play, and he happens to dig Indie types. So....... my advice is for all ya all to check out his page, and look into the archives of his past shows and check out just how funky and creative a radio show can be when the the greed gets taken out of the equation. So check him out and tellhim Chip sent ya!” www.chiprobertson.com
“Just a note of thanks for your support of local artists. It's so hard to get recognition and exposure in this crazy business, and it's people like you who
remind me that there are still those who care about good, independent music. Remember how appreciated you are. Thanks for being so involved.” Elisa Peimer “There is a reason that Dan alliterates with "de" and rhymes with
"man" cos he is just that. (Dan also rhymes with "fan". In this way of life, we're all fans and Dan is a true fan.) Long ago in a galaxy not so far away, Dan Herman flipped his first radio dial. Now there is a presence in The Force and it's good. Finder of Freeform, author of Eclectica, programmer of Potpourri: Dan Herman.” -- Dave Space "Dan Herman has been instrumental in the revitalization of the downtown NYC singer-songwriter scene. His tireless advocacy of the best new music, both on his excellent radio program and in his live music showcases, is not only appreciated by the artists and audience, but has served to help
take a small scene from a simmer to the boiling point. One can rest assured that Dan, in the tradition of the best freeform DJs, e.g. Vin Scelsa and Pete Fornatale, plays only the music he genuinely loves and supports, with soul--his sets are performances in themselves. Listen and get turned on to some of the best of the new, the old, and the unknown in good, good music." -- Jeremiah Birnbaum ”I’ve been following some of the shows that play Blendre and yours is the best. You have a lot more good local info and it's nice to hear bands that you could actually catch a show that you tell us about that they're having.” -Nicole (RCB listener) “Want to tell you how much I enjoyed your Aug 28 broadcast. Very cool. Sorry it's taken me so long to finally tune. Your type of broadcast is one of the many cool things I love about this"music revolution" we're
experiencing (and defining!) in the music business. Just getting really great acts out to a public desperate for authentic artistry. I really appreciate your broadcast, allow us to break free of those damned major labels and Clear Channels of the world! Viva Dan Herman!” -- Peter Spink Radio Crystal Blue is an old time radio show in the new age. Hosted by one man think-tank and vibe-meister, Dan Herman. Streamed Live, Webcast, Podcast, and Archived to your listening pleasure. Like the ancient tradition of cool DJ Dan Herman chills on air, talks about the music, the musicians, life. Philosophy with the skirt up. Great show. With great music -- Dylan Nirvana |
