TODAY:


AFTERGLOW ON WMUH:                      http://soundscapes.us/afterglow
=======================================================================
After a solid ten year run uninterrupted, Afterglow will finally
experience its first interruption from the WMUH schedule.  Owned by
Muhlenberg College for their students, WMUH rightly gives priority to
Muhlenberg students.  Never fear, faithful listeners.  Afterglow will
return sporadically during school breaks and will return in full force
whenever the time slot becomes available to me again.  Meanwhile, I
still host Thought Radio where I will continue to present Progressive
Rock, locally via FM terrestrial radio and world wide via the station's
web stream.  Stay tuned!

Afterglow aired from 8:00 am to 9:30 am EDT/GMT-4 every Thursday
morning from July, 18, 2002 to September 16, 2012.  When Afterglow
returns, tune in for a delightful mix of eclectic musical genres
including a healthy dose of Progressive Rock.  Tune in at 91.7 FM or on
the internet at http://muhlenberg.edu/wmuh/stream.html


GALACTIC TRAVELS ON WDIY:                   http://galactictravels.info
=======================================================================
Tonight at 11 pm EDT/GMT-4 on Galactic Travels, I'll continue the
month-long Special Focus on Manikin Records.  The Featured CD at
Midnight will be disk one from "Second Decade 1992-2002."

The Special Focus page is at:

eclectic mix of genres in the middle, and winds up with Progressive

SOUNDSCAPES CONCERT SERIES:                       http://soundscapes.us
=======================================================================
Sunday, September 30, the Soundscapes Concert Series returns to the
Nazareth Center for the Arts with Bernhard Wostheinrich and Tim Motzer
from Germany and Philadelphia, respectively.

BERNHARD WOSTHEINRICH: Bernhard leads his own solo project "The
Redundant Rocker" and his main collaborator is Markus Reuter (in
CENTROZOON). He has also worked with Ian Boddy, Klaus Hoffmann-Hoock,
No-Man singer Tim Bowness, Thorsten Niestrath, and Synapscape's
Philipp Münch.

Bernhard elicits meaning from abstraction in electronic music and
painting. He has studied graphic design and has created an eclectic
body of work in both graphics and music. Using a compositional approach
akin to his work as a visual artist, Bernhard usually begins by
improvising abstract sonic structures which are subsequently developed
into an increasingly detailed aural picture.

TIM MOTZER: Based in Philadelphia, this guitarist and composer finds
infinite joy in diversity. His output as a leader and sideman
crisscrosses multiple musical universes, including jazz, fusion, prog,
hip-hop, soul, electronica, and the avantgarde. Motzer gets to explore
these genres and the intersections between them via his ubiquitous
presence in the wildly deep and varied Philly scene, where he can be
found working with the likes of DJ/Producer King Britt, spoken
word/hip-hop artist Ursula Rucker, and jazz-fusion bassist Jamaaladeen
Tacuma. He also traverses manifold territories through the many albums
released on his own 1k Recordings label, including the expansive,
laidback song forms of Nucultures, the crunchy jazz-funk of Jazzheads,
and the solo soundscapes of his Tilomo alias.

The Soundscapes Concert Series is the concert companion to the Galactic
Travels radio program on WDIY-FM and to Thought Radio on WMUH-FM and
presents electronic music to the Lehigh Valley. This is the concert
series that presented Wave World (Netherlands), Dean DeBenedictis & Vic
Hennegan (California), Bernhard Wosteinrich (Germany), Robert Rich
(California), vidnaObmana (Belgium), The Ministry of Inside Things
(Philadelphia), Richard Lainhart (New York), Orbital Decay
(Quakertown), Mark Jenkins (UK), Mikronesia (Philadelphia), The
Tangent Project (Philadelphia), Technicolor Travel Agency (Poconos),
Broekhuis, Keller and Schonwalder (Germany), and Twyndyllyngs (Lehigh
Valley) to local audiences.
