The Wavelength
Monday September 27th, 2021 with Joe Reilly
Some Autumn Themes, some Ambient and some things on the Lunatic Fringe

The intention was to spin a number of songs exploring the Fall season, but I got distracted and went down a few musical rabbit holes... haha... so normal for the Wavelength. So we do feature a few Autumnal themed songs but we also get a couple of classic rock hits that fit with some new releases. In particular we listen to Lunatic Fringe by Tom Cochrane and Red Rider as the song is really fitting in its description of angry fringe protesters like the anti-mask and anti-vax movement. Cochrane played the song at the RBC Bluesfest this weekend and it resonated with the crowd in attendance. https://ottawacitizen.com/entertainment/tom-cochrane-reflects-on-40-years-of-music-and-a-chance-encounter-with-terry-fox We also spin two songs from the new album by Villagers. They are really engaging and divergent pieces of music as this is a new album that will demand many good listens to figure out what's going on! We will spin more on future shows. https://www.wearevillagers.com Hour 2 has a fair bit of ambient music, including a lengthy piece by Bing Satellites and a couple of pieces by loscil. http://www.bingsatellites.com http://loscil.ca Enjoy.
