Dreamy! Fantastique! Lie down, draw the covers up and watch shadows, swirls and headlight fairies dance around the room til you drift away.

Radio Obadia: Rainbow Makers (& more)
November 13th 2005 8-11pm

The first hour consisted of a 60 minute linear mix sent in by Radio Obadia of African recordings – thumb pianos, plucked gear, songs and water splashing- additional audio was plopped into the mix live by the studio staff on hand.

then, it all kind of rolled into various material. just look at the playlist when i post it.

ROGC: Hallowe’eny e’en special!

Ever hear the sound of DJ mummy dust blow past a microphone? or the subtle sound of cobwebs on a turntable? How about creaking, squealing headphones from beyond?

Didn’t think so – and we kept it that way. Hope you tuned in for a live mixed audio spook fix though – sounds & stories

– presented by the Royal Oakland Gramophone Company.

Ok, sometimes I really didn’t try hard enough with the themes…I mean…it was the night BEFORE Hallowe’en, so I gave you a Hallowe’en Eve show – simple formula. But unlike any unrelenting sugary references to holiday ‘boo!’ characters typical of Halloween shows, I was going for something both seasonally fun AND genuinely spooky. Plus I even played 20 seconds of Bark at the Moon.
Shut up!!! It’s my show… I can do whatever I want!
Seriously, I think this show works at any time of the year, and your iPod doesn’t even have to be black and covered in polyester cobwebs -n- candy corn.
