THANK YOU! For a very successful CKCU Funding Drive. In celebration, we'll have absolutely minimum yacks, and maximum tracks today. Tons of new stuff. PLUS a full play of an amazing new recording of Terry Riley's seminal "In C".
THANK YOU ALL for dialing or tapping and donating during the CKCU 2017 Funding Drive!! CKCU overall, as well as This Island Earth, have exceeded our goals. It is SOOO appreciated!! "There is no CKCU without You."
In celebration, today we'll be featuring long sets, long tracks, and loads of new stuff. PLUS a full play of a FANTASTIC new interpretation of Terry Reily's "In C" -- done up Brooklyn Raga Massive style! Minimal(ist) yacks, maximum tracks. From east to west and pole to pole. How we like it! Strap on your very best headphones. And fasten your seatbelts.

| Yet another TOTALLY INCREDIBLE new recording of Terry Riley's revolutionary 1964 minimalist composition "In C". Played in full today. This time from Brooklyn Raga Massive. Happy 82nd year of shaking us up Terry!
Put down whatever homework, housework, lame excuses, or whatever else you are currently pretending to do. RIGHT NOW! And clamp on your very best head-phones. Sit back, and just absorb. Solid over an hour of pure complex minimalist bliss to totally blow your mind... JUST WOW! For a better understanding of how "In C" works, check here: https://cod.ckcufm.com/programs/105/26266.html https://cod.ckcufm.com/programs/32/21615.html It is totally cool! For an alternate live recording of this version (played by Rob on this program a while back), check here: https://cod.ckcufm.com/programs/32/33053.html |
