In The Zone is an indie rock/alternative radio show, on Mondays at 2 – 3pm CHRY 105.FM Focusing on local (Canadian) and current music, mainly within the blisteringly loud and dreamily reverberated feedback sub-genre called shoegaze, and also featuring related sub-genres.
Shoegaze built a strong following from the late 80s to present day, only receiving a small taste of general attention in the early 90s. By playing this music and the new genres that are influenced by it, the show will give artists a gateway to a wider audience, and hopefully garner the attention of the hard-core fans.
The show promotes the idea of finding unknown music and filtering it, by calling it a label that can identify with the masses (i.e. “Zone Music”). The use of hard work, persistence and co-operation will allow the show to grow past radio, leading it into being the main entertainment source synonymous with shoegaze.
