Randophonic is a blog for a music-based
radio show that airs weekly (most weeks anyway) c/o
CiTR.FM.101.9, Vancouver, Canada (University of British Columbia). Podcast links are easily accessible via the site. Since November-2011, Randophonic's main focus has been the
All Vinyl Countdown + Apocalypse (the 1,111 Greatest Records You Probably Haven't Heard), as selected by Philip Random over ten years ago (and then he disappeared). Lately, the countdown just passed its midway point. Also, as I've just passed my 4th Anniversary as a numbered MeFite, the timing feels right to finally share this project.

Soundtap Madness is a contest we launched two weeks ago in order to promote independent radio and raise awareness of the Soundtap project (which you may remember from
previous posts). Soundtap was started by three roommates and college radio DJs who love non-commercial radio. Our goal is to make it easier to explore the great shows out there, and to bring together the various independent radio communities around the world.

A short film documenting my recent trip across the Republic of Mali to record indigenous and regional music. After the kidnappings and murder in Timbuktu in December 2011, I had forfeited all plans to go to the northern half of the country ... until the day I was piled into a 4x4, completely unplanned, and swept away to Timbuktu as the personal guest of a Malian
gendarme. This film documents my early work in Mali ... and the utterly unique experiences that awaited me in Timbuktu.

Last month, I finished designing a new website for an art gallery and radio station in NYC: Art International Radio (formerly known as WPS1). We've got and oodles oodles of rare and interesting content, interviews, music shows, recordings, performances.
Listen to an interview about Fururist noise music boxes called the
Intonarumori, or an interview with
Jim Jarmusch,
Gregg Araki, or
Michel Gondry. Listen to
Genesis P-Orridge ruminate on life and art, or tune into the latest interviews from the
Brooklyn Rail. We've acquired some historic audio tapes, and am digitizing them in the process, so that you can listen to
Allen Ginsberg (and his father!) talk together.
There's music, too: Listen to a curated show on
Minimalist music, a recording of a
chiptunes/NES-driven performance, some really great
disco/house mixes, a curated selection of
contemporary Brazilian music (expect bossa nova!), or a wonderfully John Peel-inspired
indie rock show. If you want something more
experimental, then you can listen to a series of short
radio micro-compositions,
cassette-tape-generated noise,
industrial percussion music performances.
--- And if you're overwhelmed, check out the
AIR stream, and just sit back and listen...

Best selling author Ben Hamper (Rivethead) has a vast knowledge of music. He hosts two radio shows,
Soul Possession and
Head For The Hills, both broadcast on community station WNMC 90.1 FM located in Traverse City, MI. Here is an archive of the streams for both shows. 'Soul Possession' is two hours of classic R&B, Funk, Soul and Blues, while 'Head For The Hills' is an hour of old Country, Hillbilly and Western music. Ben digs deep and mainly plays obscurities, B-sides and other rarities. There is also a link to listen to the streams live. I've been maintaining the site for over a year now and felt that there is enough material on it now to share with the Blue. Enjoy!

After discovering two amazing college radio stations in my proximity (KZSU - Stanford and KFJC - Foothills College), I began listening not only from my car but wherever I had a high speed internet connection. Thus I began a mission to identify all similarly awesome stations in the USA/Canada. The result is 77 high-quality streaming commercial-free radio stations that you can load into a convenient playlist. Surely this beats the repetitive, commercial music discovery sites out there. It has been an extremely rewarding project for me, and I hope you enjoy it too!
