01 October 2019: A Tribute to Candy L (Candy Lozier)

Candy L aka Candy Lozier was a musical artist from NYS, US, , who passed away recently.  She composed music and employed live instrumentation with electronics to create the music. Her music is ambient, dark ambient, cinematic, and more. She enjoyed composing for benefit causes. She was a radio show host with Modul 303 radio, Germany, and founder/curator of the Studio 4632 net label.  Her Facebook page is still up at this time.  She also has a page at ReverbNation.

Tonight we are honored to featured her as yet unreleased collaboration with Cousin Silas entitled Scenes from Suburbia.  This is one of several collaborations between these two musicians and is a superb collection of ambient creations. Our thanks to Cousin Silas for graciously making it possible for us to play this album on the show.
We will also play selections from her Cosmic Traveler release.

17 September 2019: Middle Eastern Contemporary Music / Candy L (Candy Lozier)

Anthology of Contemporary Music from Middle East

Following the Anthology of contemporary music from the African continent, this new collection released by Unexplained Sounds Group, focuses on experimental and alternative music from the Middle East and includes artists from Egypt, Lebanon, Turkey, Bahrain, Kuwait, Iran, Israel, Iraq, Palestine, Jordan, Afghanistan, Cyprus. A kaleidoscope of sounds by artists rooted in their traditions, but at the same time projected towards the new frontiers of music. The minimal melody of Ahmed Saleh introduces us to the exploration of sound paths that unfold through the electronic experimentation of Cenk Ergun, the radical improvisation of Mazen Kerbaj, the pulsating and disturbed electronic of Tony Elieh, the noise drone of Nyctalllz, the tribal and psychedelic music, in the Velvet Underground style, by Afghan musician Naujawanan Baidar, the lysergic ambient of Bloom Tribe, just to mention some projects included in the compilation. An intricate and exciting sound puzzle in which the listener will find his favorite way to a new promised land of sound.

03 September 2019: Back to School

The first day of school in Kodiak is September 3 and we'll be celebrating with two hours of school-related music.  You'll hear the usual suspects (Alice Cooper, Pink Floyd, etc.), but be prepared for a few surprises and deep cuts.
