Secret Music Playlist, November 27, 2016

Hi -

  Here's my playlist for Sunday, November 27, 2016. Today I played music
from Pauline Oliveros, who sadly passed away earlier this week. Also, it was a great
pleasure for me to interview one of my idols and a legend in music, Paul
Winter. It was a privilege to talk to a man who has inspired so many over
the years. Enjoy!

Secret Music News, November 2016

Hi -

  Things have been busy this past month, but in a good way. Started a new
job, got some time off and went to Philadelphia to meet people and take pictures. Got to
see Harrison McKay of the Tangent Project and Hotel Neon in concert, which
was a lot of fun. Also got to talk to Chuck Van Zyl of Star's End fame.
He's a great guy and incredibly gracious person.

  Fall is here, and there are several live concerts and events of interest
to people in the Hudson Valley area. Centrozoon will be playing at Quinn's in Beacon on
11/13, and Ben Neill and Mimi Goese will be playing at the Towne Crier in
Beacon on 11/17. Centrozoon will also be performing live on my show on
11/20. And I'm very excited about an upcoming live interview with Paul
Winter on my show on 11/27.

  Most of you know me at this point. but there's a few that might not. 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 29
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.
Don't get me wrong. I love CD's and love to see nice packaging. But I know
what it costs to mail such things, too. It's up to you. 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.

Upcoming concerts and Secret Music events

Hi -

  There are some interesting upcoming concerts in the area, as well as some upcoming events on my Secret Music radio show, so I thought I'd update people. Hope you can attend/listen in. Thanks!

Concerts:

Centrozoon - Live at Quinn's in Beacon, Sunday, 11/13/2016, 8PM
  Centrozoon is an electronic music group from Europe featuring Bernhard Wostheinrich and Markus Reuter. Sometimes spacy, sometimes more experimental. They're celebrating their 20th anniversary by touring the northeast US. Opening for them will be local musician David Rothenberg. A rare event and a must see for electronic music fans. Here's a link:

Ben Neill & Mimi Goese -Live at the Towne Crier Cafe in Beacon, Thursday, 11/17/2016, 7:30 PM
  Ben Neill is a composer and inventor of the mutantrumpet, which has to be seen to be understood. Mimi Goese is a vocalist, most notably of the band Hugo Largo. This is a free performance entitled Fathom: Hudson River Data as Music. The music is based on real time data taken on the Hudson River. This should be an interesting show. Here's a link:

Paul Winter - Winter Solstice concert live at the Cathedral of St.John the Divine in NYC, 12/15, 12/16, and 12/17, 2016.
  This is the 37th Winter Solstice show that Paul Winter has produced at the Cathedral of St.John the Divine. I've been a few times, and it's a great show of music, dance and visuals in the largest cathedral in NYC. This concert will feature Gary Brooker (of Procul Harum fame) and is a tribute to George Martin, who produced Paul's Icarus album. I highly recommend this.  Here's a link:

Secret Music/WVKR Events:

Sunday, 11/20/2016 - Centrozoon performance live in studio. As noted above, this is well worth tuning in for. The performance should start about 11AM. Here's a link:

https://www.facebook.com/events/1895920107302418/

Sunday, 11/27/2016 - Paul Winter interview live in studio. I've been a fan of Paul's music since the beginning back in 1987, and I'm very excited to have the chance to meet him and talk to him. This is a rare event, and not to be missed.
