Secret Music News, End of 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 26
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 looking for new and interesting music to play. If you have
something you think I'd be interested in, feel free to send it to the address below. I'm perfectly
fine with downloads instead of CD's, especially for all you overseas
people who pay large sums of money to mail things here to the states. I
usually prefer high quality MP3's, though I can accept other formats if
necessary. Just send me an email for more info. At least half of what I
play these days comes to me through downloads. Thanks.                   


   The year is over, and it's been a good one for music. After all the
 time I've been doing this, it's nice to know I can still be pleasantly surprised when something shows
up on my doorstep or in my inbox. That's how it should be. When that
stops, it's not fun anymore. I got to see some interesting shows and meet
some cool people. It's as much about the people for me as it is about the
music. The people who listen, the people who make the music, they all make
for interesting stories. This was a year of change in my life, and it's
been good overall. A lot of work, but for good causes. The music business
is changing, too.

  In the coming year I'll be working more on my photography, in the hope
that it takes me to interesting places. And I'll be getting more involved with this business
of music to try and get a better grasp on where things are going, in the
hope that I can help others. I've heard success stories, and problems.
Hopefully we can share more and learn from each other more. And if you're
in the area and you want to drop by the studio some Sunday morning, I'd be
happy to have interesting guests. Just drop me a line and we'll work
something out.

  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 December 2013, as
well as my top 25 albums of 2013. Enjoy!

Secret Music Playlists, December 22 and December 29, 2013

Hi -

  Sorry for the lateness, trying to play catchup from the holidays. Due to
inclement weather, my Secret Music show for 12/15/13 was cancelled. Here are my playlists for
Sunday, December 22 and Sunday, December 29, 2013. The 12/22 show was my
annual Holiday music special and the 12/29 show was my Best of 2013 show.
Have a great New Year and see you in 2014!

who have stopped by the WVKR studios to talk and play live for my

  It's getting colder here, but fall is always nice here. October is my

too. And I had ambient musician Dave Luxton and guitarist Peter Janson in
the studio for live interviews. I'm very grateful to both for stopping by
and being such great guests. If you're in the area and you want to come in
for an interview or play live, let me know. And if you're playing live in

Hi -

  Here's my playlist for Sunday, November 10, 2013. I just finished reading a
great new book from Robin Spielberg entitled Naked On The Bench: Adventures
In Pianoland. It's a great book and I felt like playing Robin's music as a result.

Dave Luxton and Peter Janson on Secret Music, October 27, 2013

Hi -

  On Sunday, October 27, I am pleased to welcome not one, but two talented musicians to the WVKR studios to be on my radio show. I hope you will tune in and enjoy.

  First, at 9AM ambient musician Dave Luxton will be my guest. He's been around for years with a lot of great CD's available. I've supported his work for a while and I'm glad to finally meet him. He may perform live, or simply talk and play CD's for us. Here's a link to his website for more information.

  Then at 11AM, guitarist Peter Janson will be my guest. He's a talented acoustic guitar player with several CD's to his credit. I'm looking forward to meeting him for the first time. I'm hoping he'll play live for us, too. Here's a link to his website for more information.

Secret Music News, October 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 26
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 looking for new and interesting music to play. If you have
something you think I'd be interested in, feel free to send it to the address below. I'm perfectly
fine with downloads instead of CD's, especially for all you overseas
people who pay large sums of money to mail things here to the states. I
usually prefer high quality MP3's, though I can accept other formats if
necessary. Just send me an email for more info. At least half of what I
play these days comes to me through downloads. Thanks.                 

  It's fall here in the Hudson Valley, my favorite time of year. The
leaves are changing color, and it's beautiful here. Try to visit if you can. It's worth the trip.
Thanks to everyone who helped out with our annual pledge drive, and
special thanks to everyone who called in with their donations. I raised
$800 in 3 hours.

  Also in September, guitarist Tim Farrell stopped by to play guitar and
talk. He's a funny guy and great guitar player and I'm grateful for his visit. Later this month I
will have ambient musician Dave Luxton and guitarist Peter Janson in the
studio for live interviews. Stay tuned. If you're in the area and you want
to come in for an interview or play live, let me know. And if you're
playing live in the area, let me know so I can promote it.

  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 September, 2013.
Enjoy!

WVKR Annual Pledge Drive

Hi -

  WVKR will hold its annual Pledge Drive for 2013 starting on Tuesday, September 10, and going until Monday, September 16. Although WVKR is a college radio station (Vassar College) and derives some funding from the college, it's not nearly enough to meet all their needs. So once a year we DJ's ask our listeners to help support independent radio in the Hudson Valley by calling in donations or emailing them to us. Every little bit helps, and we greatly appreciate our listeners for helping us out. We have some nifty premiums for people too, including tshirts, CD's and such. My portion of the Pledge Drive will be on Sunday, September 15, from 9AM to 12 noon. I urge you all to call in and show your support. Let me know if you have any questions. Here's the station phone number to call in on the 14th. Operators will be standing by.

845-437-7178

  And here's the WVKR website for those of you who wish to donate online and/or listen in online, too.

  Thanks muchly!

check out our website at www.wvkr.org.     

  I'm always looking for new and interesting music to play. If you have
something you think I'd be interested in, feel free to send it to the address below. I'm perfectly
fine with downloads instead of CD's, especially for all you overseas
people who pay large sums of money to mail things here to the states. I
usually prefer high quality MP3's, though I can accept other formats if
necessary. Just send me an email for more info. At least half of what I
play these days comes to me through downloads. Thanks.                

  Coming up this month is the annual WVKR Pledge Drive. WVKR is a
non-commercial station, supported to a large degree by listener donations. The pledge
drive will start on September 10 and run until September 16, with my
portion on Sunday, September 14. If any of you can help out with
interesting goodies to use as premiums for people's donations, please let
me know. It can be CD's, downloads, or most anything else. I'm open to
ideas.

 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 August, 2013. Enjoy!

Secret Music News, August 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 26
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 looking for new and interesting music to play. If you have
something you think I'd be interested in, feel free to send it to the address below. I'm perfectly
fine with downloads instead of CD's, especially for all you overseas
people who pay large sums of money to mail things here to the states. I
usually prefer high quality MP3's, though I can accept other formats if
necessary. Just send me an email for more info. At least half of what I
play these days comes to me through downloads. Thanks.                

  I'm very grateful to two people who came in the last two weeks for live
interviews. On July 28, Meg Bowles came into the studio to talk about her music. I love her
new album and I really enjoyed talking to her. And on August 4, Rick
Cutler came in to talk about his music and promote his new album, which I
got to hear for the first time that day. He's a very talented pianist and
the new album sounds great. I love having musicians come into the studio
either to play live or simply talk about their work. It's a chance to get
to know people and find out more about the music. If you'd like to come in
to play or simply talk, let me know and we'll set something up. No
interviews scheduled as of yet, though on Thursday, August 8, I'll be at
the BSP Lounge in Kingston watching a local group, A Viberatto. I hope to
see you there.

  Coming up in September is the annual WVKR Pledge Drive. WVKR is a
non-commercial station, supported to a large degree by listener donations. The pledge
drive will start after Labor Day and last for 1 week. If any of you can
help out with interesting goodies to use as premiums for people's
donations, please let me know. It can be CD's, downloads, or most anything
else. I'm open to ideas.
