Airing 13 - "Half 'n' Half"

Trying out a new format-style:
first half = new contemplative jams from recent releases (with some older stuff mixed in too);
second half = instrumental jive/sleep hour.

I'm not sure if I like this format or not, but I'll probably do it for at least another week. comment if you have any comments.

p.s. - Show's on spring hiatus for this week and next. The next new airing will be 2-4am on march 26th.

Airing 12 - "Legalese"

• WHEREAS the New Contemplative Jive Hours takes place between the hours of two o'clock (2:00 am) and four o'clock (4:00 am) in the morning;
• WHEREAS the dj had to work on a paper later the same morning;
• WHEREAS sleep is required for productivity in academia;
  
• WHEREAS the personal music library of the dj was inaccessible;

I, the host of the New Contemplative Jive Hours, therefore, did solemnly enact:

• AN AIRING of approximately one (1) hour in duration;
• AN AIRING compiled entirely from music of the WVKR new music collection;
• AN AIRING which was still totally rad;
• AN AIRING the archive of which can be listened to at the following address of the world wide web: clicketh thine link

Airing 11 - "Crass(h) Course"

A Jeffrey Lewis marathon. Hand-picked cuts from across his catalogue (including rare tracks off of out-of-print compilations and singles), but with a focus on songs from Jeff's new release "12 Crass Songs." The first half presents a sense of the range of Lewis's work, with some awkward attempts at exposition; the second half (from about 1hr:12min onwards) is in true contemplative jive form, with lots of back-to-back tracks and sparing interruption.

Airing 10 - "Tired Nation"

WARNING: there is some seriously lackluster banter during this airing, especially towards the end. It's like being assaulted, but in a really slow and disinterested manner, so you don't really even notice it until you wake up the next morning feeling mildly sore.

listen:
So Depraved


Oh, and next week is going to be awesome because I'm doing at least 1 hour, perhaps an entire show of Jeffrey Lewis music, including tracks from his new release, 12 Crass Songs. Anti-folk glory awaits! (wednesday at 2am like always)
