New Normal Music was an Internet radio station created by Tom Leykis and Art Webb that began streaming July 1, 2010. Leykis created New Normal Music in protest of radio stations who claim to play "new music" but only play safe market tested music often 10+ years old.〔(All Access )〕 "When Red Hot Chili Peppers release a new album, many radio stations refer to it as 'new music'. They were formed in 1983." The station started off by playing 50,000 songs in a row - none more than 12 months old, mainly Indie Rock. Although songs were repeated and there were regular advertisements for the station itself. The station planned to sell advertising.〔(Radio Syndication Talk )〕 Some representative bands featured on the station included The Arcade Fire, Fitz and the Tantrums, LCD Soundsystem, MGMT, Of Montreal and The Black Keys. New Normal Music's DJs included Webb, former Sirius XMU DJ Tobi, former WFNX/Boston morning man Morning Guy Tai, and Zack Schulz. The station was part of a greater network of podcasts and music streams Leykis started called ''The New Normal Network''. Other 24-hour music streams from New Normal include New Normal Rock and CHR-formatted Pure Pop Hits. New Normal Music ceased operations on July 12th, 2014. Leykis posted on the site's facebook page "I wanted to thank the thousands of folks around the world who have listened to and spread the word about New Normal Music for four great years. Our program director and co-creator has moved on and without his specific music expertise, it's impossible to continue the format." 〔https://www.facebook.com/NewNormalMusic/〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「New Normal Music」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
