Things With Strings
New Sounds

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.

I think you should encourage feedback, but I really miss the advance track listings for each show. I have been in the habit of coming to this page more or less daily to see what's cooking for the evening's show. Obviously I can't do that if the track listing is no longer posted on the day of the program.
There have been many times when the text description of an upcoming show has left me feeling lukewarm, but the track listing has piqued my curiosity enough to get me to tune in.
Boo.

JKM,
What you might call advance listings is partly an accident of our website, sometimes a stroke of luck that we're back here in the evening to put the information online in time for the show, or occasionally part of the grand plan, but is never a done deal. Some days, the staff (that'd be host John Schaefer and assistant me) are just not able to process and post the playlist before we go home for the night. We're sorry for the inconvenience and we hope that you'll take advantage of our on-demand audio archive service to catch up with what you might have missed.
I'll buy all the CDz on this playlist.
Thanks John!
Hamid.
