This Island Earth
Sunday February 21st, 2021 with PeterB (live-ish from home 'Studio X')
A ramble from ambient, to raucous, to just plane odd, and back. Business as usual in other words.

Today's 'This Island Earth' shall visit some sacred places, a trip around the globe, and a new vid from an old favorite, plus ample new tunes! LOCK ON THEM HEADPHONES NOW!

PeterB (host)

Rob
‘S good! Thanks for this! Headphones on!

1:19 PM, February 21st, 2021
PeterB (host)
Hey Rob. Yeah. Headphones. On to Venice now.... SOOO multi-dimensional. Thanks for letting us steal your ears, even if momentarily.

1:27 PM, February 21st, 2021
Rob
Venice is killing me! The bells! The bells! It’s just like being there. Well, after maybe one too many Aperol spritzes...

Hi PeterB, AHHHHHH! A mini-vacation! How nice. Listening here at home. Clarice fast asleep in a patch of sunlight. Not on headphones right now—waiting for spinach casserole to be done. Can’t let the house burned down.

1:33 PM, February 21st, 2021
PeterB (host)
HA! But yeah, as always for Cities And Memory series, the sound is just jaw-dropping. Pure. Clean. Organic. Close your eyes....

Amazing... Was having a walk and browsing the waves and then just THIS... I am visiting my friends from Whitby here in Kanata and stumbling upon this broadcast in the middle of the woods with my headphones on was like a cleansing...

1:38 PM, February 21st, 2021
PeterB (host)
Hey S.A.M.! We'll be right over for spinach casserole!! And, not much reason for a cat to hide under a couch today, thus far... That will change shortly. ;^)

1:39 PM, February 21st, 2021
Rob
Also, PB, terrific flow from Oliveros to Venice to Lal here. Lovely!

1:40 PM, February 21st, 2021
PeterB (host)
Melted!! Very glad you are deeply grooving! This program is indeed all about introspection. Well, and some chaos too q;^) DO stay tuned. And hang on to yer hat shortly...

Stupid wrong ling. Dumb phones. https://cod.ckcufm.com/programs/105/50847.html

TX Rob. As i like to think for cooking, given just great ingredients, the only thing we could possibly do wrong, is &%@ it up. Yeah, amazing stuff!!

1:48 PM, February 21st, 2021
PeterB (host)
David, YUP! Lal is 28-ish........ What if he decided to practice!! ;^) JUST WOW!!

1:55 PM, February 21st, 2021
PeterB (host)
OK, and now it gets odd............. Karkhana with Nada El Shazly on now. BUT keep them phones on! Wonderfully detailed sonics... Cats, beware.

Indeed, you cannot go wrong with Cities and Memory. BTW, if anyone knows about trying to send messages using a phone, it’s ME—Voiceover, though improving, is far FAR from perfect, leading to some interesting messages. Yes, cooking and T.I.E. Great way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

Clarice in other room now......

Good tunes PB! Always happy to hear Cheb i Sabbah. Heading outside for some Vitamin D not from a pill...

2:38 PM, February 21st, 2021
Rob
Hadda split for a bit there. What’s this now?

2:43 PM, February 21st, 2021
Rob
Oh, never mind: this is DJ Cheb, so that must have been The Hu! Best band name...

2:47 PM, February 21st, 2021
Heavy Ben
Like both Hu and DJ Cheb! I was looking ahead on the playsheet anticipating this one

2:51 PM, February 21st, 2021
Rob
I’m with you, Heavy Ben! Cheb i Sabbah is an old fave, but I’m new to The Hu! And I also went out for a dose of the vitamin D.

2:53 PM, February 21st, 2021
PeterB (host)
