Episode #3165
New Releases, January 2011
Monday, January 31, 2011
It's the most wonderful time of the month! No, not when we see if we can break the January snowfall records. Rather, it's the new releases show - the pick of the piles of submissions that made it to John Schaefer's desk. Expect some big band hijinks from Fred Ho and the Green Monster Big Band along with some kora-based Afro-pop or something a bit jazzier, still with kora, but with vibes and marimba too. Perhaps we'll also hear some skronky yet "serious" music from a punkass jazz quartet, and a shot of Romanian gypsy cabaret. If we're extra lucky, there might also be some epic dub music that ends sounding like SUNN O))), from a classically trained IDM pianist.

New Releases, December 2010 (Weekly Podcast)
It's the most wonderful time of the month! John Schaefer sifts through the steady stream of CDs that have flooded his office to find a sampling of new releases worthy of showcasing in tonight's New Sounds program. From here we can see some acoustic Afro-pop, a heaping helping of Balkan-inspired jazz, Balkan-informed indie rock, and the Sway Machinery, featuring Khaira Arby. Plus, new music from Stephan Micus, and much more.
