Having worked with the likes of  God Child,  Hamzaa, Queen Sheeba, and 13 at Oya Exclusive, Eris can now be seen at some of your local and national venues ripping the mic with metaphors. Now Da’Poet is giving much word at WODU radio and keeping it light, upbeat, and smooth as you ease into your Saturday!  Old school soul to New School soul, its all about the Neo Soul and now you can hear those rips, guest poets, all your favorite Neo Soul artists and eclectic hip-hop on the Neo Soul Lounge from 4pm – 6pm.


Angie Pants | email                                             Fridays 12 pm – 2pm ET

Angie Pants came to ODU from Northern Virginia. While living in Northern Virginia Pants was introduced to local and underground DC/VA/MD music. After her first local show Pants realized how important local and underground music is to the big label bands, and music in the media, yet it is never played. Pants set out to spread the word of local music everywhere, even where it is not local. Almost ever band starts out local before they get discovered. In order for a band to be heard their music needs to be played and that needs to start somewhere. Why not right here every Friday from 12-2pm at WODU with Angie Pants and her Pants-less hour?!

Angie Pants believes there should be music diversity on air. The radio shouldn't be playing the same song ever other minute and DJs shouldn't be talking their heads off about what ever boring subject crosses their mind. This radio show isn't mine, it is yours! So tune in or be tuned out!

Angie Pants welcomes new/ local/ and underground music of all types! To submit music shoot me an e-mail at Ayure001@odu.edu.


DJ Blubear | Tuesdays 3 pm – 5pm ET

It was a dark and rainy day when DJ BluBear descended into the WODU studios. The wind howled and the windows shook...but maybe that was due to all the loud music that was being played in the station. NONETHELESS, DJ BluBear made her mark on the station when she transferred to ODU in fall of 2009, bringing with her the fruits and atypical variety of the AVANT GARDEN, which in her first semester won Best New Show of the Semester. Unbeknownst to the general public and the WODU executive board, DJ BluBear laced her musical plumage with subliminal messages, so that eventually she may take over all radio waves, globally and otherwise. In fact, she is already beginning to reap the benefits, and as of 2010 has been honored to take on a new position for the studio as Assistant Music Director. DJ BluBear likens herself to The Brain from Pinky and The Brain, however, it has been said that she is slightly cuter and more charismatic, if only by a small percent.

DJ BluBear started her radio personality as a youngster, singing in the shower and improvising ads and talk shows. She also used her karaoke machine to record songs and ad lib as a DJ on cassette tapes, which she sometimes gave to her friends. Eventually, she joined with a volunteer online radio site and was a DJ there for two years, half of which she served as Assistant Director of the online network, TVRN, before it ceased operations. She brings previous in-studio experience to WODU, and is looking forward to enhancing the WODU radio experience for hosts and audiences alike.

Dan Deacon. The Presets. Crystal Castles. Pnau. AVANT GARDEN, from 3-5 every Tuesday, is DJ BluBear's WODU baby, and offers a continuously fluorishing variety of most things dance-worthy. Last semester, AVANT GARDEN specialized in electronic music, particularly industrial, trip-hop, electroclash, and synth-pop. This semester, DJ BluBear is looking forward to a fresh season of new music, and intends to expand the garden to include the likes of a more acoustic, yet just as jumpy breed. Expect more femme punk, indie pop, folktronic, and must-hear indie forefathers.

Paco, the fairly intense yet fairly easy-going Puerto-Rican metalhead, is the Alternative and Heavy Metal Director and the host of Zero Tolerance @ WODU Radio. Though a military brat who has lived up and down the east coast, he is a Virginia Beach native back home, transferring to Old Dominion (Class of 2011) from Northern Virginia Community College in the fall of 2008.

Aside from being a very loud guy, Paco has been an avid lifelong musician, playing numerous instruments and versed in many different styles of music--heavy metal being the all-time favorite. He is the guitarist, songwriter, and producer for Spanish-language heavy metal band Metralleta (www.myspace.com/metralleta). His major goals in life are to make those Benjamins and hopes to own and operate his own recording studio in a brutal snow-free environment.

Paco hopes to bring the diversity of heavy metal to ODU and keep his listeners abreast of all things metal both local and worldwide. Expect exclusive interviews with both national and local artists, giveaways, and lively metal discussion! Don't be that lonely rocker craving their fix--tune in Tuesdays from 4 - 6 PM to the most brutal show on college radio with the craziest Spanish guy on campus!

Love, hate, and everything in between
