Mac’s untimely passing hit caught me off guard, especially so soon after Aretha’s passing. So we put together a quick mix to pay our respects to this fine young musician, full of so much promise and taken far too young.

The hot weather’s got me grooving on west African Highlife vibes, so after a bit of a repeat of an older show (I forgot my mixer at home and had to run back to get it…), we get into some afrobeat and highlife, before segueing into house. Then we drop into a bit of hip hop for the last bit of the show.

Playing some live Erykah Badu has me reminiscing about the time I travelled to Oakland to see The Roots and Erykah Badu play. I was so hyped to see the Roots live again! We got to the venue fashionably late and to my dismay found out that not only were the Roots NOT headlining the show, but that we’d missed most of their set already! No matter, Erykah Badu came on and absolutely killed it. If you ever get the chance to see her perform live, don’t miss out.
Anyways, today on the show – some RnB, funk, reggae, hip hop and disco.

Well, it’s another Funding Drive show. This year, not knowing too much what to expect, I kept the lead-up pretty low key (read: non-existent) so there wasn’t much noise about it here and on my social channels either leading up to, or after Kootenay Coop Radio’s 2018 Membership and Funding Drive, but we’ll probably amp things up again for this next year because I think we can do better ;)
Having said that, if you’re not already a member and would like to become a member of Kootenay Co-op Radio, there’s not time like the present. Get some. Or if you just want to donate without becoming a member, that’s cool too. KCR is volunteer-run, community-powered radio and we live and die by our community support.
And if you’re feeling particularly masochistic, you can listen to me pitch for 2 hours on the benefits of community radio and becoming a member.
