This week please enjoy "Requiem Da Camera" by Gerald Finzi. This hidden masterpiece, begun in 1924 and only finished in 1990, is his lamentation for those brave men and women, of all nations, who fell during the "Great War" (1914-1918). With social conflict all around us (Iraq, Syria, etc), this requiem (musical composition in remembrance of the dead) is as pertinent today as it was then.

Russian Emo Angst Electronica Ballads. Kinda like Grimes meets Bjork then Pussy Riot crashes the party. "Underground Fairy Tale" was released by IC3Peak on September 29, 2018. It is a must listen. Unless you are Czar Putin. Then you'll hate 'em.
"Once you felt the pain – you will feel it again.
I don’t cry over you.
Only cold can burn out tears on my face.
I wish I could never see . . .
What’s hidden ahead . . .
My heart is so heavy – I’m falling into abyss . . .
While it’s turning in stone from the inside . . .
I come from a Russian horror fairy tale.
It doesn’t matter where you’re from.
I am not afraid of daylight.
There is enough darkness here.
This world gives you everything you ask for.
But it takes it all away when you least expect."
Exactly what Fyodor Dostoevsky would have written had he played club dates in Russia in 2018 . . .

Great alternative bands exist all around the world. The Carsick Cars are from China but their sound would be equally at home on the Lower East Side of Manhatten.

Velvet Underground Alumni John Cale dazzles with this requiem for the dead of the Falklands War. Alternative Classical with a Dylan Thomas Libretto ? Yeah. Got it here. "Words for the Dying" is de rigueur for the Living.
"Adore" by Smashing Pumpkins is a controversial album. Coming after the success of two highly regarded efforts ("Siamese Dreams" and "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness"), it marked a shift into alternative electronica. The mood is dark as befits a band buffeted by divorce, drug addition and line up changes. It is also one of my very favorite Smashing Pumpkins efforts. With heavy musical textures . . . and a heart breaking libretto . . . it is not to be missed.
This is essentially a rerelease of the first Deep Forest Album supported by the addition of club remixes. It is a wonderfully skillful blend of voices from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Solomon Islands and Burundi . . . married with electronica melodies, chants and lullabies as produced by Eric Mouquet and Michel Sanchez. The voices of the Efe people are predominately featured. "Deep Forest" is one of my favorite World Music albums from the 1990's.

This is the final (and perhaps the finest) album by the Alternative Band called "The Cranberries." Bursting on to the Alt/Indie scene in 1993 with their debut album entitled "Everyone Is Doing It, Why Can't We?" their haunting track "Linger" continues to be heavily featured on Alt/Indie Rock radio stations across the world. Today I play my favorite tracks from their final Album appropriately titled "In the End" released in April of 2019, following the death of their lead singer Delores O'Riordan.
When I started producing content for radio 5-6 years ago, my first show included a song by First Aid Kit. They are a remarkable Swedish Alternative folk duo that includes sisters Klara Söderberg (on vocals/guitar) and Johanna Söderberg (on vocals, bass, keyboards and autoharp).
I’m long overdue to produce a show that highlights their impressive body of work. Today I present songs from several First Aid Kit albums including: The Lion’s Roar, Stay Gold, Drunken Trees and Ruins.
While the band is Swedish their sound contains elements of pure Americana.
Klara and Johanna have long favored many classic American musicians including: Billie Holiday, Emmy Lou Harris and The Carter Family. The Carter family was the "first family" of American Country music from the 1930’s thru the 1960’s . . . with June Carter Cash (who wrote and performed "Ring of Fire" with her husband Johnny Cash) as one of their most prominent members.

Very few people today know about a remarkably talented and idiosyncratic band called "The Blue Nile." While eschewing the spot light they gained the admiration and support of Peter Gabriel and Rickie Lee Jones.

If you look for hidden gems to impress your audiophile friends . . . . consider this a lucky day.

"Sugarman" Sixto Rodriquez, is one of America's best, "unknown" singer/songwriters. Despite producing two excellent studio albums in the early 1970's, commercial success alluded him. He found a regular job, bought a modest home and spent his life in a working class neighborhood in Detriot. Many years later, much to his surprise, his daughter discovered he had a FANatrical following in South Africa, Australia and several other nations around the world. Like many musicians, he did not receive the financial reward he had earned, however he did embark upon several world tours to connect with his enthusiastic worldwide fanbase. I showcase his music today along with other 1970's Rock greats Jimi Hendrix and Bob Dylan. Also in included is another "greatly overlooked" artist from 1970's, the incomparable Nick Drake. Thanks to WCRS for allowing local Columbus Ohio producers to create unique and high quality radio shows not available on conventional FM Clear Channel Radio.
