Join Eddy Owt as he explores the rich genre diversity, cross-breeding, and hybridizing in the back waters and tributaries of the past 100 years of music: rock, jazz, pop, r&b, soul, country, ska, electronica, J-Pop/C-Pop/K-Pop, afrobeat, and much more.
"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

Happy New Year! (Jan 2nd, 2026)Fri, 01/02/2026 - 4:20pm | Eddy OwtNew Years is a time to wrap up those accumulated loose ends from the previous year -- pay off debts, clean out closets, finish projects. We tie up a couple of loose ends by playing a couple of tunes that we had to cut from last week's interview with Nicole Laurenne due to time constraints. We then play a selection of songs of hope, resolutions and haunted houses(?) to ring in the new year! |
Nicole Laurenne Live! (Dec 26th, 2025)Fri, 12/26/2025 - 4:20pm | Eddy OwtDespite wind and rain and thunder and lightning and viruses, Santa still delivered his best gift for Boxing Day -- a live (via Zoom) interview with Nicole Laurenne, the dynamic leader of The Darts (U.S.) and femme fatale in her Black Viiolet alter ego. Nicole joined us for a lively discussion of her holiday visit, recent tour high- and lowlights, plans for 2026 and a badass selection of tunes that have influenced and inspired her over the years. And as a bonus gift, we had the World Broadcast Debut of Black Viiolet's cover of the holiday classic You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch! All of this while battling an unfortunate holiday virus. Many, many thanks to Nicole for (literally) sweating this out! |
