*** A Personal History of Music Appreciation ***

1970s: FM radio (AM in the car), American Top 40 (Casey Kasem!)

1980s: radio and 120 Minutes plus LPs and CDs

1990s: used CDs and dirt cheap LPs and 45s

2000s:P2P, torrenting, MP3 blogs, SomaFM; LPs and CDs persist!

2010s: Kids, streaming

2020s: FM radio (KALX, KDFC, KCSM), American Top 40 (Ryan Seacrest (no exclamation point))

I swear I if I have one superpower (aside from judging leftover containers) it’s winning show tickets from KALX

No joke, I’ve won the past ~8 times I’ve called

This time I was caller number 2

(PROTIP: You have to wait for the DJ to answer no. 1!)

It looks … instrumentally maybe fun?

@pete @jazz 1st, I'd start with New Orleans, home of jazz, and hit #WWOZ https://www.wwoz.org/
Then, west coast with #KCSM https://kcsm.org/
Filling in the spaces, Boston: https://www.wbgo.org/ #WBGO, Cincinnati https://www.wguc.org/includes/jazz_stream.html .
Only an hour a week, but https://koop.org/program/the-jazz-show/ out of Austin TX and also from the left coast https://www.kalx.berkeley.edu/programs/round-midnight #KALX in Berkeley.
We got to the celebration of Donnie McKethan's life this past Sunday in DC for #WPFW. (photos in my timeline).

Staff Pick:
Watts Up at KALX, 1982
using Banco and ITC American Typewriter
https://fontsinuse.com/uses/52244/watts-up-at-kalx

This promotion announces the moment UC Berkeley student-run radio station were to upgrade from 10 to 500 watts of broadcasting power. Banco had already established itself in punk culture as the typeface for Thrasher in 1981.

Nice to listen to a Berkeley radio station using #NetBSD, a Berkeley Standard Distribution descendant.

Whoa I just won tickets to a show from KALX for the first time in maybe like over a decade. Stoked! Love this radio station. #radio #ucberkeley #kalx

21st Annual Joe Strummer show is up on yr fave platform & our website for REPLAY!

I was trying to explain Buchla and the Berkeley provenance, this morning to DJ Sifu (who founded Thermal Records and is a UC Berkeley graduate who worked at Leopold's Records and used to deejay on #KALX) and even though he has some #Moog stuff: he had never heard of #Buchla!

Some synthesizer wizards were too far ahead of their time I think?

Anyway, gratefully, refreshing research to share is how I stumbled across the upcoming #SuzanneCiani show, so I am grateful for that unexpected discovery.
