The Epic
It's finally here...the debut of saxophonist Kamasi Washington! You may recognize his sound from Kendrick Lamar's still astounding To Pimp a Butterfly, but now he's arrived with a sprawling triple LP debut. I'll resist the urge to play the three hour album (!!!) in its entirety, but instead spin some of the many highlights. A landmark album! But no worries...the usual vinyl funkiness will ensure (Mouzon, MacDermott, more)!

And we're back...
Happy to report that the venerable Mt. Airy Groove is
resurfacing after a one year absence from the airwaves! Indeed, the
vinyl stacks of the Groove will now make their home on Saturday mornings
from 7am-10am on 89.1 WFDU-HD2 in Teaneck, NJ, also home to Farleigh
Dickinson University (Go Knights...!).
New York area folks are able to listen to the show on the HD2 channel of 89.1 on the FM dial. For listeners beyond the FM listening range or without a HD radio, the show is available to stream at www.wfdu.fm -- just click on the "HD2 -- Jazz and What's More" tab. The easy to use WFDU app is also available in the Mac and Android app stores. The show is also available to stream via Sonos through the TuneIn Radio app. Plenty of ways to sit in!
And for this week's episode...
The Mt. Airy Groove returns to the airwaves this morning with a fresh stack of wax. Got a whole bunch of great international electric jazz with me including Quintonal of Montreal, Mighty Mighty of Finland and Joe Haider of Germany. Also, got some funky stuff from Seldon Powell, Eddie Russ and Houston Person!

Mama Told Me Not To Come.
Over the next few months Neu-Matic will be welcoming guest DJs into the studio to share whole realms of music you aren't hearing anywhere else. We'll even have some former G-town Radio programmers bring their shows back for one day.
Mt. Airy Groove is back in the saddle with Neu-Matic and a nice sack of vinyl. Long time host of G-town Radio's Mt. Airy Groove, Ian Ranzer, has got some good stuff to bring your way: a live one from the Greg Foat Group, a great set of Belgian funk, and some later funky work from Cedar Walton. Most importantly, he's got the new D'Angelo on wax! Come nod your head for a few hours...
