Playlists?
My radio show playlists I include for the simple interest
of the listener. If you're interested in getting more info about
any of the bands listed, send me some email.
CD changer listings?
What's playing in the CD changer these days.... At home, we've
found that 5 discs on shuffle can be much, much better than the
radio. It happens far too often that seemingly incongruous discs
lead to sublime little experiences that please the DJ in me and
make me giggle.

April 99
Rather than put them up show by show, you can peruse
the entire month of april on this page. It's relatively large
to download, but that's your problem, right? Smirk. I've begun
each of my shows lately with the Sterne song (from Stell die
Verbindung Her) "Bis Neun Bist Du OK," which seems
only appropriate for a radio show that begins at 9 PM.

10 feb 99
Continuing my 99 spring semester schedule on the return
trip, here's the 99 feb 10 braziliarabigrooveout.
Someday, I'll be able to link to audio feeds of the show, so
you can listen to them (as can I) later on. I'll have to figure
out how to do RealAudio encoding during the show, though...

3 feb 99
After a really long pause, the newest playlist from my
show (with added comments about my state of mind for each song...)
is listed right here for your
reading pleasure. I'm still on an Arabic kick, but incorporating
more drone, electronic, industrial, and whatever else it is that
makes the most sense to my soul at the moment. (99 feb 3 show).

23 sep 98
Here's the continuing fascination with dark
broody drony music from 14 oct 98, though I should point
out that it ends with a game of playing old Latino off new Latino
sounds... lotsa fun...

23 sep 98
The dark moodiness continues. I put in the playlist from
98 oft 7 because so many of
the tracks are the same as on 23 september (I know, bad DJing,
but leave me alone), yet the mood was somehow much darker, moodier,
contained more modern composition, different filters, different
timing elements. My comments continue to be a bit on the dark
side, too, but that's the way it felt.

1 oct 98
I'm spending a lot of time at work listening to music
on the web. Best site for grooving out while writing a dissertation?
www.x-radio.com. Highly recommended. And if you're richer than
I am, buy their music...

23 sep 98
After a long hiatus, the Return Trip is back on the air
every Wednesday from 9 PM to midnight. On Sep
23, I kept track of the radio show on a Newton database,
letting me keep comments about each of the songs as it happened.
I've also gotten back to a more internal, emotional musical style,
I suppose. I guess I'm jsut having fun with being inside my head.
The music is going away from pure Latino or African danceability,
moving toward slower, droning styles that contain modern composition,
free jazz, ambient, that sort of thing.

21 july 98
The radio show on the
21st may have been my last for the summer, if I can find a sub
for the remainder of the time, while I go and work on my dissertation.
The stress and all that got to me enough that this show was mostly
quiet, long pieces, drones, ecstastic material, and the like.

30 june 98
It's obviously been a while since I was here, and there
was actually a lull in the radio
show schedule due to trips and all that. In case you care,
the shuffler at home has lately been on Woodie Guthrie, Leadbelly,banjo
music, polkas, or REM, Dash Rip Rock, Nine Inch Nails, and a
few other folks. Eclectic, but I'm losing the thread for telling
you about it regularly as my dissertation continues.

22 Apr 98
I'm posting another radio
show playlist, something that seems to come easier than posting
my disc changer list (lately, I haven' tbeen listening to all
that much music at home, but at school, it's Neubauten, Morcheeba's
newest, and Arvo Pärt. Whatever. Enjoy the playlist, I guess...

15 Apr 98
On the illustrious tax day of April
15, the most interesting guy and all around great dude, Keith
Rokoske, guest hosted my show. We mixed in all sorts of things,
traded tunes back and forth, and had a fine time. The man challenged
me in a couple of ways, playing Yes and Lynyrd Skynyrd on my
show (I'd never, ever played them before), and making me find
a transition from Melle Mel to the Foggy Mountain Boys (I used
early Peter Tosh). It was a fine show, we had tons of fun. Read
the playlist here.

8 Apr 98
Once again, a radio show
playlist comes your way. That's right, it's the funky extravaganza
of fun and frenzy - guess you had to hear it to know what the
hell I'm talking about...
