Art Star Scene Radio
with
FACEBOY & LUCAS
Birthed from the annals of downtown New York City’s gritty performance art scene of the mid-90’s and grown through the myriad formats in which we’ve presented our work, Art Star Scene radio is here! Live and uncensored, the main purpose of this show is to promote love, healing and mindfulness in both humorous and serious ways. You can be an Art Star too!!! As Rev.

Aural Medication
with
RINA
A weekly infusion of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…musical remedies both natural & synthetic, some locally sourced, some internationally imported. From Cleveland to the Congo, from Bushwick to Brazil. I will be mixing up the medicine with everything from the old-fashioned to the new – fangled, the rust – corroded & star spangled; precious antiques & shiny new balloons, dusty relics & fancy gadgets. Tune in for your tonic for a tired mind, an elixir for the li ... (11:00 AM - 01:00 PM ET)

The Best Is Noise
with
BEN GAMBUZZA
In 2008 at Le Poisson Rouge, a young audience who knew nothing about classical music was struck by a performance of Olivier Messiaen's "Quartet for the End of Time." In the words of one critic, "The people loved it. The piece conquered them."
On The Best Is Noise, I try to replicate that experience with every track. I play under-heard classical music that isn't always "beautiful" but is always arresting. And it's never boring.
All the music - whether by Igor Stravinsky, Florence Price, Miles ... (02:00 PM - 03:00 PM ET)

DIDA PELLED
Insatiably curious jazz singer-songwriter Dida Pelled lets loose on the world of crooners and storytellers in this hour-long conversation/listening party. Each week we will meet someone special to Dida, a musician or just anyone, and listen in as she interrogates them on their inspirations and what moves them in life.

Troubadours & Ranconteurs
with
E.W. CONUNDRUM DEMURE
Poetry, life stories, philosophy, literature, art, science, politics, and the state of the world. You’ll hear essays and humor, a poem, perhaps a passage from a great book; occasionally there will be a bit of wisdom, and always some good music. TnR is soulful, it’s spiritual, it’s smart and sassy, it’s sometimes guttural, it’s sometimes classy, it’s hip, it’s working-class blue chip, it’s urbanely earnest, on occasion it’s a right bit movin’, it is particularly human. (10:00 PM - 11:00 PM ET)
