 John Cage said "Most musicians can't hear a single sound. They listen only to the relationship between two or more sounds"
This show will be about exploring and exposing those relationships- Rock, Punk, Post-punk, Jazz, Soul, Dub Reggae...fundamentally they are all just noise with a beat"

Summer's over, and with it goes the uncomfortable heat and late sunsets.  This week, Autumn has begun, with cooler weather, chances of rain and days of shorter amounts of sunlight. The perfect time for a soundtrack for an inner monolgue. Enjoy. Read more

Good morning. I do not wish to give away too much here in the show description, as I think the show might be better heard then described. But let me just say it begins with Walter Brennan and concludes with music from Chip Kinman. As for the basically 3 hours in-between, pl... Read more

Well, it's been a few weeks, the calendar being what it is, so I am glad to be back here broadcasting on KBOO. That being said, this show may seem less coherent than some I have done in the past. The Show begins with dub music and ends with a London band that has Krautrock... Read more

Considering this show is broadcast in the early hours of the day, I thought it might be nice to select some music to be the soundtrack to being half awake or dreaming. Expect some lengthy songs, some drone, some instrumentals, some guitars, all I hope for your listening ple... Read more

Normally I do not have a theme for my radio show. Most often I chase a feeling. But this morning I have opted to do what I have decided to call "Contrast & Compare", playing original versions of songs, followed by a cover version of that same song. I hope you enjoy the epi... Read more

Summer. Maybe more than other seasons brings a significant change. As I wrote in a poem.."all that is invisible is re-arranged". Summer can be nice, pleasant, but can also be oppressive. Harsh. This show today is the first show of the summer of 2022. I can not honestly tel... Read more
