Day: October 25, 2021

Back in May of 2020 before I took a few months off from aNONradio, I did two episodes where we explored and listened to some 8-tracks. You might enjoy these episodes; I hold the microphone up to the player so you can hear the cartridge loading and program switching sounds of the machinery.

The two episodes start with an mp3 while I am still setting up, and then the fun begins. You will enjoy hearing a big hit single being split across two programs of the tape (a common flaw with 8-tracks), and me joke about how the wow and flutter was so bad it changed the key of the song (because it really did, haha! 🙂 )

Happy listening!

Digging through my old playlists (which are available as 2015-2017 and 2018-2020) I found an episode from February 6th, 2016 made in honor of Maurice White who had just passed away in 2016. I think you will enjoy it too, as there are a lot of awesome rare album cuts, long jam sessions, and new material you may have never heard before from the kozmigroov funk band Earth, Wind & Fire.

Also contained in this episode is a snippet of aNONradio history, as I mention at the end of the episode the upcoming shows for the day, which was Saturday and so it was DGC, The Soundshow, IGWM (which I mention is my favorite show on all of aNONradio 🙂 ), and Asia Culture Adventure with Hong Tudou. Hey, that’s still pretty much the line up!
