"We have a tropical situation where there are thousands of 'species' of music around and they're all constantly cross-breeding and hybridizing. It's very exciting, but you can't keep up with it easily." -- Brian Eno

Co-host Helen Forster lends her voice to both the spoken and musical portions of the show.
