idobi Network, the go-to alternative music platform, has brought its new brand identity to the New York City floor. Twelve billboard windows plus a building topper - dedicated to its premier streaming radio programming - have taken over the Lower East Side, between Delancey and Bowery Streets. The largest billboard also represents the launch of a new corporate identity for idobi Network, created by Jeff Langevin, and a new radio focused idobi.com where fans can explore everything the alternative-rock scene offers.

Since 1999, idobi has cultivated an international community within the alternative music world. In that time the network has become more than radio: idobi is now a lifestyle - a culture where listeners "alt-rock 'til they drop."

Sharing in the excitement of idobi Network's refreshed face, Sherin Nicole shares:

"We codenamed it 'brand new idobi' but, since we will forever be the sound of the alt-rock scene, this is an expansion with a fan-first focus - where listeners can experience idobi with all five senses. It's more than the music they listen to: idobi is the community they're a part of, it's the soundtrack for their lives. These launches represent their lifestyle, so idobi can better represent for them."

- Sherin Nicole, idobi Chief Creative & Marketing Officer

In celebration of the launch, listeners and residents are invited to participate in a five-day scavenger hunt from January 26th to January 30th involving local businesses around the area. Participants must take a photo of the idobi Network billboard and tag @idobiRadio and their partners for a clue to aid their scavenging journey. The first person who goes to the right business location, based on the given clue, will receive a special prize pack with goods from Schecter Guitars, WhistlePig Whiskey*, Hopeless Records, Topo Chico, Fire Dept Coffee, and more. There will be one prize pack per day at each business location for five total.
