Week 25 - October 11, 2024
EPISODE 25 of Z-GR! Radio
Z-GR! Radio overview right from your Host:
- My name is Scot Apathy – I’m the lead singer for Zero-G Racetrack, and I curate the ‘Floating Around the Racetrack’ Spotify/YouTube playlist. It’s not a pay for play list; I personally choose what’s on it based on what I hear. True story.
- For Z-GR! Radio, I pull from tracks/artists on the playlist (current and archived) and include newer finds that might not be on the list yet (but likely will be).
- The artists included come from myriad genres, geographical locations and stage of growth. I stay away from mainstream established artists, but I will play artists that I’ve followed as they grow. I love it when emerging artists gain traction, and I like to celebrate it.
- I include a cover song each week, and highly recommend checking out MetroVeteran’s (Ruel Smith) ‘Synthwave Covers’ Spotify playlist. There are 900+ great tracks on that list.
- I post a page like this each week to help you find out more about the artists you heard on this week’s show and to make it easy to do so.
- I’m working with NEWHD on a Featured Artist program, and I’ll note those artists as they appear.
Have fun with the list below, enjoy the artists/music and…

Z-GR! Radio Episode Twenty Five Lineup
Fear of Tigers - Please Don't Leave
Fear of Tigers is Benjamin Berry, who is super talented and has an extensive library of great tracks and remixes. He’s worked on film and choreography projects that are really cool, and it’s worth a walk through his socials; this is a favorite of mine, it’s called ‘Please Don’t Leave’.

Echo Vector X - Breathe
Echo Vector X’ sound is decidedly vintage analogue synth, and the band is a duo of former roommates, who interestingly are on two different continents – Erik Nielson is in Oxford, England and James McDonough is in Rhode Island. They’ve got a bunch of great stuff, so make sure you check them out.

Ralphy Grey / B.O.N. / Aisle 9 - I'm A Rebel - Aisle 9 Remix
Ralphy Grey was our guest artist on Episode 12, Aisle 9 was our guest artist and first ever track premiere on Episode 14 and the opener for the very first episode of Z-GR! Radio was ‘I’m A Rebel’ featuring the outstanding vocals as supplied by Bon. Aisle 9 did a remix of the track, and it’s awesome. I am so excited that these artists got together for this remix, and it sounds fantastic.

Permadeaf - Burn
Beyond Obsession - I Can't Tell
Germany’s Beyond Obsession formed back in 2012 and they’ve been making great music since – their catalog is fantastic and worth checking out, and they are heading out for a late 2024 tour, so if you’re in or around Germany, grab a seat. This track, ‘I Can’t Tell’, is fantastic.
GULVØSS / Rob Dust - Walking On Water - Rob Dust Remix
Murmers of Earth - The Man I Never Knew
Murmurs of Earth is the British electronic music duo of Vocalist Geoff Pinckney and Producer Richard Sinclair, who has a weekly show called Syntherapy on radiowigwam.co.uk. I loved their sound as soon as I heard it – this is ‘The Man I Never Knew’ on NEWHD Rock Evolution.
RJ Thompson - Rescue You
The Wildflower Collective - By The Riverside
Blokecola - Famous Doctor Pavillion
Zero-G Racetrack - I Remember
Back in early August, my band, Zero-G Racetrack, released ‘I Remember’, our ninth track. It’s as close to a ballad as we’ve come, and I wrote the vocal as a reminder that every relationship, regardless of how it ends, leaves you with positives that should be remembered moving forward.
Robots With Rayguns / Carl Gershon - Need U Tonight
Robots With Rayguns have joined with Carl Gershon to cover one of the most famous songs of the ‘80’s by one of the greatest bands of the generation. This is a really great version of the classic INXS track ‘Need You Tonight’.
