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.

Dear Ayyoush & Noo Noo,
I was listening to this while working this evening and I thought you might find it interesting. I particularly liked "I Met Bach at My House" and "Think".
So when can we all go to the Korean Restaurant for Nayla's belated birthday dinner? Hyon mi told me that you're going to Philadelphia on Friday. I really miss you both. It feels like it's been forever. I'll give you a call on Sunday.

What a remarkable show! There were elements of what I hear in drum and bass. The katikali singers and "I Met Bach at My House" were fantastic!
Thank you for a great show!
