The Audio Ecotone

 

"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

Ecotones are zones of transition between different habitats and often have a vibrant diversity of species. The Audio Ecotone explores the rich species diversity, cross-breeding, and hybridizing of music of the past 100 years: rock, jazz, pop, r&b, soul, country, ska, electronica, J-Pop/C-Pop/K-Pop, afrobeat, and many more from the 1920s to the 2020s.

The Audio Ecotone for 3:00pm on Jul 19th, 2024

Inspired by a recent visit to the California State Fair's Insect Pavilion, this week's Audio Ecotone celebrates bugs! Flying, crawling, composting, pollinating, beneficial, pest -- we're love them all. (Well, maybe not the aphids and mosquitos.) We're just in time for National Moth Week and the UC Davis Bohart Museum of Entomology's July 20th Moth Night! So join Eddy Owt and buzz on over to KDRT 95.7 FM or stream on KDRT.org for Bugs! on the Audio Ecotone.

The Audio Ecotone for 3:00pm on Jul 12th, 2024

On this week's Audio Ecotone, we try to beat the heat by celebrating WATER in all its phases: liquid, solid, vaporous, metaphorical, metaphysical ... and above all musical, including music from the Aquabats!, Parliament, Sergio Mendes, Dr. John, Loudon Wainwright III and the Taiwanese singer Chyi (Qi Yu 齊豫).
