KCRW Broadcast 430

Fanatic! I have a day off from rolling and tumbling on set. With the power of the two ibuprofen tablets I took an hour ago to neutralize the effects of getting tossed around like a near sixty year old rag-doll and long visits to the gym, I am able issue these notes. I am listening to the tracks for our show and I must say, I do believe we’ve done it again.

I know, I know, it might only be a radio show to you, Fanatic but to me, it’s much more. It’s a chance to check in, from anywhere in the world, and hop onto the same page for a brief period of time and dig humankind’s bestest creation. The fact that you can be in Germany, Australia the United States or damn near anywhere else and hear the show is as cool as it gets. This is why so much care goes into making the show.

It’s been surprisingly hot where I’ve been. I’ve been getting in listening opportunities when I can. The hours I am keeping are pretty demanding and after work, I’m not good for much.

Knowing I wasn’t in the shot today, I worked late last night on the press release for Alex Cameron’s next album. I really don’t write these things so when I got past a thousand words, I stopped and sent it to Secretly Canadian for advice, lest I be running too far afield. They wrote back and said they liked what they read but it had to be less words. I think I’m going to finish my crazy version for fun and send the label a severe edit. I don’t know if I’m at liberty to talk much about the album, which comes out later in the year. I will say that is incredible.

There are some GREAT records coming out this year. We will get first crack at them and I will do my best to get the tracks to you either before the album comes out or within a few days. For now, dig this fantastic dip into the sea of tunes. As I am writing this, the Miles track is playing. Love it!

Listen up and STAY FANATIC!!!
