This Island Earth
Sunday December 17th, 2017 with PeterB
Mostly trans-continental collaborations today. Including a full play of a terrific new release from Trio Da Kali and Kronos Quartet.

For today's adventure, we will feature just loads of interesting collaborations, across both geographic and genre boundaries. AND a full play of a really interesting new release from Trio Da Kali and Kronos Quartet. Just WOW! Mostly long sets, and long tracks, today. From east to west and pole to pole. How we like it! Please hit us up on the Interactive Thingy (over there ==>). We'd love to hear from you!!

For me too David! A great many of my faves are cross boundaries collaborations. I could very easily have put together multiple shows along these lines. .... Hmmmm ... maybe I will. ;^)
