    Program #2078

    Airs Daily at 11PM on 93.9 FM
    Fall is new release season, with record labels large and small often turning out some of their hottest CDs of the season. This edition of New Sounds showcases several of these, including the latest from dj Cheb i Sabbah, an excursion into the devotional music of India. From Spain, we hear the flamenco wizardry of singer Miguel Poveda and from the US, it's David Krakauer's latest Klezmer Madness CD, The Twelve Tribes. We also feature Kandia Kouyate, the Mali-born Griot who is backed up by her six-man acoustic band on her release, Biriko. Music by Juan Martin and Ben Allison, among others, rounds out the mix.

Things With Strings

New Sounds

Airs daily at 11PM on 93.9 FM
For this edition of New Sounds, hear new music for strings, including music from Andrew Bird, whose little-known companion album of adventurous instrumentals called “Useless Creatures” incorporates West African rhythms and showcases his multi-layered violin loops.

New Sounds Essentials: World Music

New Sounds

Airs daily at 11PM on 93.9 FM
New Sounds presents another night of recommended recordings, this time in the “world music” vein. Hear selections by the Algeria-born and San Francisco-based DJ Cheb I Sabbah, Ethiopian soul singer Mahmoud Ahmed, and others.

Away From Jazz

New Sounds

airs daily at 11PM on 93.9 FM
For this New Sounds, get a load of jazz musicians stepping away from the jazz tradition. There's music from punkass jazz melody-makers Gutbucket off of their latest release, "A Modest Proposal." Also, we'll hear from the latest by Matthew Shipp, called "Harmony and Abyss" and much more.

In Robert Moran's Kitchen

New Sounds

From October 30, 1989, the infamous "cooking show" with composer/raconteur Robert Moran. Recorded while cooking an Indian dinner in John Schaefer's kitchen, for reasons still not entirely clear. Along the way, we hear an "acoustic" version of Cage's 0:00 - for amplification of chopping vegetables and blender. And don't miss the teary conversation as onions are chopped. View the the recipes.
