In fact, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame lists "Quarter to Three" as one of the 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll. Airs Thursday, March 2, from 6-8 PM. Dr. Margaret A.

Director Kathleen Ermitage Talks MIXTAPE TRILOGY on Tom Needham's SOUNDS OF FILM Mixtape Trilogy: Stories of the Power of Music explores one of the most intense and unique relationships between people who rarely meet: music artists and their fans. Folk-rock icons The Indigo Girls openly share their journey, which has powerfully influenced the life of their biggest fan. Composer and pianist Vijay Iyer examines issues of immigration and race through his music; his work touches the heart of Garnette, a “man of the streets” from Kingston, Jamaica. Rapper and activist Talib Kweli inspires and transforms the life of Mike, a “Hip Hop” architect from Detroit. The director unpacks the music, inviting the audience to fall into it. The art of listening unfolds and inspires us to listen to music and, perhaps, each other in new ways. Airs Thursday, February 16, 6-8 PM.

Manuel Göttsching Part 3 on Melting World. Sunday, February 19, 12-3 AM.By acradio on Mon, 02/13/2023 - 8:36pm
Join The Melting World on Saturday night at midnight (12am on Sunday, February 19) for the last of three shows dedicated to the music of Krautrock pioneer and German electronic music innovator Manuel Göttsching (1952-2022). We will play his most influential composition “E2-E4” in its entirety. Composed on the fly and performed live in one take on all analog synthesizers, sequencers, drum machines and his Gibson SG. Recorded on a two track machine on 12/81 with two chords, synthesizer and guitar sections. The improvised synth lines are continuously altered with quick changes in filters, envelopes and oscillators. No overdubs, eq or mixing effects, it stayed unreleased until 1984, where it later became the bridge between analog synthesizer music of the 70’s and the techno and house genres that followed. Music from his bands Ash Ra Temple from the 2000 reunion and a track from Ashra recorded in 1997 at KLEM, the Dutch electronic music festival. Ending the program we will feature collaborations from German ambient composer Mathias Grassow in the cosmic hour.
