BTW, you say "still nothing like him".If your interested and don't know of Ken Nordine, his stuff is way cool too, but in a different way.

Might be a late thank you to the original poster of this but THANK YOU for posting all those shows up! As a musician in the "scene" for many years I will Renee and many of the others have been very supportive of the musical genre. Many of these dj's actually enjoy real communication (when they have time) with the artists i.e. they will randomly send me a play list just to let me know they are playing my music which I think is very kind.
Its not a very large scene to be honest and a real shame because this form of music entails a certain artistic richness and positivity creativity for people and in a sense creates a general well being(no I am not a crystal healer either!). Perhaps one day people sick of mainstream music will realize there are other forms of music that do not follow the imposed doctrine of verse chorus verse! Enough of my ramble!

Your welcome hrr. There are some online automated sources for good quality ambient listening, but I prefer a human host and I just wanted to share with others that there are many sources to choose from. Being a small community only brings us closer together I think. We represent the cultural underground in electronic music. I have always felt fortunate to have and be part of the family of musical underground movements.

It's funny, thinking about why many of our serious listing community are from the baby boomer generation, I wonder if it's because as we age, it gets more difficult to listen to music and occupy our minds with other activities at the same time without becoming overly distracted by the music. With ambient, I can have it playing and still concentrate on other mental activities.
Surely that's not the main reason I listen to electronic ambient, I have been at it for most of my life. but generally it may also be the best music genre for multitasking, especially among
baby boomers.

Actually the verse,chorus,verse, bridge, chorus formula has also seen it's day. Popular music doesn't work that way anymore. It even give you less! It has nothing at all to offer anyone who has half a brain.
Keep the underground alive. These are times of visual entertainment and interaction. The days of listening to your mind listening to music are sadly coming to an end.

Thank you Bill! I'll be making those additions in a week or two. I'm finishing the horrors of moving and have not had internet all month.
I'm able to write you now because I made a short stop in at the new place, which is internet happy.

Thanks again for the info and looking forward to hearing you soon!

Barry.

I discovered a new ambient radio show: Tapeta Lucida

Sundays at 10pm - 12am PST, hosted by Stephen Galloway on North State Public Radio.

I'm listening right now, very good selections. It's been mostly drone/experimental style ambient so far... might be some modern classical as well according to the description on their website.

Stream it here live: https://www.mynspr.org/programs/tapeta-lucida
