Fanatic! Tonight, a great show, with a cool second hour.
Fanatic! Tonight, a great show, with a cool second hour.
Fanatic! From the roasting urban sprawl of Los Angeles, hello.
I don’t know if you were at Zebulon the last two nights for the Keiji Haino / Peter Brötzmann duo shows. I got my tickets in February. I was going to do my best not to miss these shows. The first night was really good, last night was fantastic. It was as if on the second night, Haino was making a soundtrack for Brötzmann to work in and the results were incredible. So glad I was able to see them play. I had been looking forward to these shows since I got the tickets.
Tonight, a great show, with a cool second hour. You might have heard about the new Coltrane album of unreleased tracks from 1963 called Both Directions at Once: The Lost Album. Well, Fanatic, we’re going to listen to the whole thing. It’s excellent and I think it’s a perfect bit of August listening for us.
Here’s a write up.
Oh yeah, last night I ran into our good pal and sonic ally John Dwyer. His new album Smote Reverser is great. Preorder that cool color vinyl here.
It’s a great show and we hope you dig it.
Don’t forget your fluids and STAY FANATIC!!!

Live on KCRW
Live on KCRW is KCRW’s performance series featuring artists recorded live at our Santa Monica studios. From emerging acts to established voices, the series offers artists a space to present their music in an intimate setting that puts the focus on performance, sound, and personality.
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.
Jason Bentley's Metropolis
Metropolis captures the hypnotic pulse of modern city life through electronic music built for movement, atmosphere, and late-night discovery. Jason Bentley connects current releases with foundational tracks, remixes, underground club sounds, and artists continually reshaping the possibilities of dance music. House, techno, electronic pop, and leftfield productions move together in a fluid weekly journey that reflects both the history and the evolving future of the dance floor. Sophisticated, immersive, and always looking ahead. Tune in to Metropolis Saturday nights from 8 to 10pm.
