Edge2.188 A Grab Bag of Unsorted Unrelatedness.

If this wasn’t Edge, this broadcast would be labelled as having no format. It is in fact a grab bag of an unsorted mess and that’s the beauty or fun if you like. Playlist: Baa Baa Black Sheep – Singing Sheep (single) Principle and Material Force – Nikolaus Urban (de Appel, single) It Ain’t Necessarily [...]

Edge2.185 Freeform episode 10

Another Freeform episode with 2 baskets filled by 2 DJs (Boukor (for his – for now – final broadcast as a DJ for Edge) and Jeroen) with tracks of all sorts (as if when we pick a theme we aren’t eclectic in our playlist). Lots of electronica with the two opening tracks by Orbital and [...]

Edge2.184 Unusual musical instruments

Happy & healthy 2012! We (Boukor & Jeroen) start off this year with, as can be read in the blog post subject, “Unusual musical instruments”. A bit strange for Edge to call something “unusual”, but when many of the recordings of obscure instruments are limited to lofi recordings – this indicates they are not yet [...]

Edge2.183 X-mess

After a silent messy start (technological probs) – with a track of Roxette as a filler – the traditional Christmas-themed Edge show with Boukor and remote Jeroen finally started off with Corporal Blossom’s remix of I’m dreaming of a white xmas. Lustmord then presented a rather grim Christmas track, with warfare continuing during the celebration [...]

Edge2.182 Extreme contrasts

While we generally in Freeform also present rather contrasty music choices we (Jeroen and Boukor) selected particularly contrasty ones in this “Extreme contrasts” episode. It’s something that in “normal” radio programming is often absent as is disrupts the gradual flow of fresh and stale pop tunes. In such shows/broadcasts DJ personalities are the ones who [...]

Edge2.181 Freeform episode 9

As the weather outside became wet, cold and windy – as it should be this time of the year – inside the studio of OogRadio some eclectic sounds were selected by Boukor. Freeform to the extreme, with tracks ranging from psychedelic soundscapes (Pink Floyd, Frank Zappa) to Russian electrorock (Алиса), atmospheric gabber (Neophyte vs The [...]

Edge2.180 Mantra – Part II

Edge on repeat, yet again, by continuing, prolonging the mantra theme..Boukor in Groningen & remote Jeroen in Leeuwarden continued their search for mantras and found more 70s psychedelic krautrock (Popol Vuh, Zweistein) and 00s electronica (John benj). Then the black metal of Liturgy was mixed live with Terry Riley’s minimalist chance music, a nice combination [...]

Edge2.179 Mantra – Part I

A submission recorded by Arthur Elsenaar of Maksim Katsnelsona, a street musician playing in Central Park NYC, inspired us (Boukor & Jeroen) to follow up with some more mantric tracks. Accordeon (Pauline Oliveros) and guitar (Sunn O)))) drones, repetition of the word f### (Osho), (abbreviated radio edits of) the inevitable trance-inducing Indian sitar in traditional [...]
