Secret Music News, March 2013

Hi -

  My name is Scott Raymond, and for those of you who don't know me, I'm a
New Age/Ambient/Electronic music DJ with WVKR-FM. WVKR is a 3700 watt
non-commercial station broadcasting from Vassar College to the greater
Hudson Valley region. My show, "Secret Music", has been on for over 25
years and has a large and devoted audience. The show airs every Sunday
from 9AM to 12 noon EST. For more information or to listen in online,
check out our website at www.wvkr.org.   

  I'm always on the lookout for new and interesting music to play on my
show. If you have something you think I'd be interested in, feel free to send it to the
address below or email me for more info. Also, if you'd like to send me
downloads of your releases in lieu of actual CD's, that's fine with me,
too. Just send me an email and let me know. Thanks.              

  It's still winter here. I thought the groundhog saw his shadow and
spring was coming soon or something. Coulda fooled me. Got to see Eric
Carbonara and Alexander Turnquist play, which was nice. A Viberatto is
playing this week nearby, unless we get snow, which is a possibility. I finally got around to
editing an interview I did with Will Ackerman back in December and
broadcast excerpts from it on my show. He's a great guy and it's always a
pleasure to sit down and talk to him. I'm hoping that with spring coming,
I can start scheduling some live interviews and/or performances here on
Secret Music. If you're interested, let me know.

  There's a new service out called DAR.fm. which allows you to record
radio shows (like mine). The website has more info. but it's basically a free service much
like a Tivo, which allows you to select and record radio shows for future
listening. Finally something for those of you who aren't around to listen
in on a Sunday morning.                

  For more info or weekly playlists, check out my website below. I'm also
on Facebook, so look for me there too. Here's my top 20 playlist for February, 2013.
Enjoy!

Secret Music Playlist, February 17, 2013

Hi -

   Here's my playlist for Sunday, February 17, 2013. Played some older
stuff today for various reasons. Hadn't played Vangelis in ages, so I fixed that. Jeffrey
Koepper's birthday was this week, so I played some of his music. And I hadn't played
DATT in forever, too. I'll play some more acoustic music next week to balance things out. Enjoy.
