music I like :)

Everything I like was once foreign to me. Some shit I loved right away, but a lot of it was not my liking - until I heard the right note in the right setting. This show for me is a space to weave familiar with unfamiliar, mainstream with the niche.

Any genre, any era, any style.

We all let loose eventually.

DJ Inbetween spins almost entirely 7-Inch vinyl sets, covering a wide range of genres but mainly focusing on funk, soul, rare groove, hip-hop, and electro. There will always be jaunts into leftfield and other areas like world music, jazz, and psychedelia, and a theme often connects each set.

For the Late Listeners.

A shot of caffeine with extra foam. Playing Detroit techno from the Belleville 3 and beyond.

Halcyon Nights is a neon-soaked spaceship hurdling through the stars on the beats of retrowave, synthwave, chiptune, citypop, and everything else soaked in 80s synth nostalgia. Kick back as the sounds transport you away—to a San Junipero wonderland of the imagined past or an ever-expansive digital deep space—on synths that get your body grooving and pull on your heartstrings.

Power pop, which has its roots in 70s rock, is somewhat difficult to describe but you know it when you hear it. There's an innocence in the melodies and guitar riffs that makes us feel a tad lighter and often happier.

It's always summertime at The Cool Out...!

Summertime Jams for two hours with your host James Park. Playing music you hear at a summer jam. I will introduce and speak on a couple of tracks that remind of the summertime and then go into a mix that spans the beginning of a summer time bbq until the end of the evening.

A monthly slot where I play everything from 90’s hip hop to world groove. Some shows would be looking at a specific artist like Toumani Diabaté or The Alchemist. Others would be based on an instrument group like percussion or string instruments. Additionally, shows may be based on a niche genre like Zouk or Highlife. The ultimate goal is educating the listener and opening them up to music they may not know.

spacetime w/ sarasmile is a vinyl voyage across dimensions and spanning genres. Rooted in the music sarasmile loves most, it will feature plenty of AM Gold, '70s soul, '80s RNB, disco, roots reggae, and Afrobeat, along with rare groove gems and oldies found in the dollar bins of NYC's record stores. Tune in and fly across the spacetime continuum!

Tune in to International Dark Skies with your host, PSYCHIC WOUND, for a deep dive into the post-punk, cold wave, goth, and industrial music that defined the late 20th century. From obscure rarities to seminal tracks, each episode explores the innovative use of synthesizers, drum machines, samplers, and tape manipulation that gave birth to some of the most atmospheric and unsettling sounds in modern music.

When my father, musician and producer Tommy West, died in 2021, I inherited a few thousand records, a mix of LPs and 45s, some of which probably were in my grandmother's collection judging by the condition. I meticulously catalogued them and realized that I only recognized about a quarter of the tracks, mostly from "compilation" cassettes (dad never said mix tapes) that he created for me when I was barely able to read through when I went to high school. I was curious about what else was in there, but self-aware enough to know I would never patiently listen to singles if left to my own devices. When Hi-Note opened, I pitched the idea that I would "just play the collection," often hearing songs for the first time. "Just play the collection" would occasionally turn into a "fuck around and find out" as some pretty racist, sexist, and otherwise unsavory shit was released back then under unassuming and un-googlable titles. (To date I think I'm the only Hi-Note show to ever come with a disclaimer.)

But for the most part, the experience has been awesome. When you listen to My Dad's Record Collection, you hear everything from your favorite tracks off of the second Dirty Dancing soundtrack album, to songs made famous via TikTok meme (played at the proper speed, of course), to Italian folk songs, to cautionary tales about how if you try to prevent teens from dating they will inevitably die in car crashes. Yes, this is a genre vast enough to make an entire hour-long set. I also recently piloted "cozy sets" when the weather is below freezing or otherwise unpleasant, where no song ever exceeds adante (110 bpm or below), perfect for a date night or smokey cocktail.

And finally, the promised disclaimer: My Dad's Record Collection contains vinyl from all genres dating from the 1940s through the 1960s, and the music can be reflective of the time in some ugly ways. While I try to screen for material that blows past "it was a different time" into indisputably vile (ex. outdated gender roles or murder ballads OK, insult comedy songs which include obvious racial slurs NOT OK), I don't always catch everything, so the occasional track may make it to air that is offensive.

In Italian, “aperitivo” is the drink which opens your stomach for meal. You have your aperitivo at your local "bar/caffetteria" before lunch or dinner, chat about your day along with your neighbors at the bar counter, relax and free your mind before going home or out to eat.

As a radio show, Aperitivo brings to you a fitting atmosphere for post-work musical decompression, one in which to connect with your neighbors whilst exploring the many sounds of this world - just at that hour in which your belly begins to call, and a neat cocktail along with the perfect record is all one need to set the mood for a continued journey through work, or prep for night out in dance.
