Welcome to Beta State!

The purpose of the Beta State podcast and blog is to bring you new music from today's indie/alternative music scene (and even some classics too), and to bring listeners of the genres together. Beta State is dedicated to hosting the regular podcasts, and blogging of Bran Wilder, which will be a place for weekly album reviews, concert info and dates, and things in our music community of interest.

The Beta State podcast is 100% listener supported. That is, song requests are more than just appreciated, but almost required! Let's face it, I'm gonna run out of songs in my personal arsennal of music to play. That's why I need YOU, the listener, to send me requests every week!

So get to it! E-mail me song and playlist ideas at (JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address). When I create the playlist for the upcoming podcast, I'll send you a personal e-mail letting you know that your song(s) will be featured that week. So go ahead... listen, and enjoy!
