KCRW Broadcast 340
Fanatic! Welcome to our first October broadcast. It’s always a good month for music of course but there is something about October that makes music sound great. We have been working for quite a while on our October shows. For me, it’s a month of memory. I listen to new music all the time but in this month, I like to listen to music I grew up with a careful ear, trying to understand it differently. It is a month I look forward to.

This will be a great month for music for a lot of reasons.
Fuzz II, the new album by Fuzz, is coming out at the end of the month. Fuzz II is being released in some really cool configurations. Not to spoil the fun, I will not divulge anything that I have not seen online but there is a white vinyl run that was available on In the Red’s site that is now gone. Look for that at a unreasonable price on eBay by the end of the month. If you go to here: http://www.roughtrade.com/albums/96157, you will see a pre-order opportunity for a green vinyl pressing that is only available from them. Other versions are in the pipeline so if you are so inclined, keep your eyes peeled. This record rules on vinyl.
The Teens of Style album by Will Toledo also comes out at the end of the month on Matador. http://store.matadorrecords.com/new-releases/teens-of-style. We have been playing this one a lot looking forward to finally hearing it on LP.
You that band we listen to all the time, Soccer Team? They have a new album coming out at the end of the month on Dischord called Real Lessons In Cynicism and it’s excellent. We will be getting into those tracks starting in November. Here is info: http://www.dischord.com/news/609/2015/9/soccer-teams-real-lessons-in-cynicism-out-october-27th-on-lp-and-digital
At least three reasons to go to the record store.
I hope you enjoy the program of tunes we have assembled for you. Until next week, stay loose and STAY FANATIC!!!

Live on KCRW

Morning Becomes Eclectic
KCRW’s signature music program and the heart of its eclectic sound, Morning Becomes Eclectic brings together new discoveries, timeless recordings, live performances, and conversations with artists shaping music today. Hosted by Novena Carmel, the show moves freely across genres, eras, and borders with curiosity as its compass, creating unexpected connections between the familiar and the unknown. For nearly five decades, MBE has made discovery part of the daily ritual while keeping its ears firmly tuned to what comes next. Tune in on weekdays from 9am to noon.
Peanut Butter Wolf
Peanut Butter Wolf goes deep into a lifetime of collecting, pulling from more than 50,000 records alongside a digital archive packed with unreleased music and overlooked discoveries. The founder of Stones Throw Records favors the underdog, moving through hip-hop, funk, soul, electronic music, oddball records, rarities, and sounds that resist easy categorization. Inspired by generations of adventurous DJs and selectors, the show treats digging as an art form and the unexpected find as the ultimate reward. Tune in every third Sunday of the month from 8 to 10pm.
SiLVA
A dance-forward mix that moves freely between house, disco, boogie, electronic music, global club sounds, and plenty in between. SiLVA’s sets are built for Saturday night, mixing new tracks, classics, edits, and deep cuts without getting boxed into one genre. The emphasis is on movement, surprise, and keeping the energy alive from one record to the next. Tune in to SiLVA Saturday evenings from 6 to 8pm.
