Broadcasting out of LA comes the sweet sounds of Hunnypot radio. This is a show that is all about the many genres of music, and the different emotions that it pulls out of life lovers. They play indie, underground, and mainstream artists and groups alike, so a diverse audience of listeners will find something that appeals to their tastes. Industry music supervisors DJ Hot Tub Johnnie, PJ Bloom, and Shok host the radio show. It is one light, live party, where the listener will be able to tell the DJs are having fun.

The great thing about this show is that although they are music industry professionals, they are truly about the music. It’s all about breaking new artists, playing great music, and not what some corporate guy in a suit wants them to play! DJ Hot Tub recently took some time out to tell me more about the radio show, and his experience as a music supervisor at Windswept Pacific.

THAAHUM: How long have you been DJ-ing, and what do you do at Windswept?

keneteph2007-07-02-02.jpgDJ HOT TUB: All my life. At 15 I would DJ at different high school parties. I’ve been in the entertainment industry for 18 years, and now run the film & TV department at Windswept Pacific, which allows me to truly pursue my love of music & find new artists. At Windswept, I’m the Senior VP of TV and music – a lifestyle choice. Basically, I get to absorb the music scene. I enjoy finding opportunities for artists and know how to interact with people. The movie industry is helping out a lot of artists because they see great music as an opportunity to market films.

THAAHUM: How did you get your start in the industry?

DJ HOT TUB: Coming out to LA & developing business relationships by interning my way into music and film industry.

THAAHUM: How did Hunnypot Radio come about?

DJ HOT TUB: Hunnypot Radio was started as a way to find the best artists. It was a collaborative effort between me and other individuals in the film, TV, and music community.

THAAHUM: What has been the response since its debut?

DJ HOT TUB: Tremendous! Most of the response has been “inner industry,” from others involved in film and TV. We are a close community and close to our listeners. People like that we play what we play. We aren’t getting any money out of this, so it allows us to play a diverse amount of music, without having to go thorough any red tape.

THAAHUM: What is your opinion of the state of music right now?

DJ HOT TUB: As an art, its essence will never die. Humans connecting with what moves them will always be there. Music may be like water one day – abundant, with all different types easily accessed by all.

Hunnypot radio airs every Monday from 7-10 pacific time and rebroadcasts throughout the week. Go to www.myspace.com/hunnypotradio to check them out, and www.hunnypotunlimited.com to check out their show.
