Saga of the Broader Sphere: update

the music blog show turned out really well-- with a well chosen blog, the flow for a good show is already in place. i only took out one track, a superlong mix, and i faded out another really long song.

other than the only rearrangement i did was to play the first song they ever posted (a throbbing gristle song, of course, off of the album 20 jazz funk greats) along with a brief mention of their first entry. i actually had some parts i wanted to read from that entry selected, but the woman before me ran way over on time so i cut it.

(tracklist and download)

20 jazz funk greats' authors wrote me back without much fanfare. they were just like "oh, cool, thanks."

what else did i expect, i guess? haha.

the show still ruled. that's the main point.

Saga of the Broader Sphere

Okay. I just wrote to the contact listed for the blog

http://www.20jazzfunkgreats.co.uk/wordpress/

and let them know I'm using their blog on the MIXTAPE MIXTAPE show tonight. Hopefully they think it's wonderful for me to be crossplatforming like this, and this will be the start of a long and lovely series of collaborations between FM and the internet.

Will post any outcome. Until then be sure to cz out the show tonight at 11pm Eastern, WRIR.org (97.3FM in the RVa).
