If you like radio as much as I do, you will see a lot to be excited about for the coming week at WXYC.  See for yourself! 

Friday night brings us the Inside Track at 9 PM.  This week, tune in for a new release from
Moskitoo entitled “Mitosis.” An uplifting album from Japanese sound artist and visual designer Sanae Yamasaki. Playful electronics, stirring melodies, and honest, quiet vocals. Imagine if Bjork didn’t care about making orchestral music or if Lau Nau shied away from analog instrumentation.

Tonight at 10 PM on the New Science Experience Dj's Robert, Trevyn and Matt will be discussing some their favorite music released in the past month. Tune in from 10PM-12PM to hear tracks from the Huerco S album Colonial Patterns, Le1f mixtape Tree House, Teklife Vol 3: The Architek from Traxman, and a whole lot more!

Hallelujah! This week on Hell or High Water, Sundays at 1 PM,  join Zaki G for the powerful song of the Wiregrass Sacred Harp Singers, an African American Sacred Harp ensemble from Mississippi. 

This Sunday, Broken Music sorts through the works of Texas composer and intermedia artist Jerry Hunt. Though also known as a concert pianist, it is Hunt's solo performances for which he is most recognized. A gaunt, balding man in an unironed, white button up, Hunt flailed around the stage in a ritualistic fashion, swapping through his battery of homemade, mechanized instruments while a complex array of synthesizers churns out a bed of sound. His compositions build upon a variety of processes, the details of which only Hunt knew, though mathematical algorithms and interactive sensors were common. Facing a diagnosis of terminal cancer, Hunt took his own life in 1993, using his final work, a complex and throroughly researched carbon monoxide system. Tune in at 2pm!

Join nice-guy and local music enthusiast Lincoln on the Backyard BBQ on Sunday from 8-9PM.  Lincoln has playing and listening to music in Chapel Hill for almost 20 years and he is itching to share what he has heard.  Tune in for some lovely retrospective of local music along with highlights of some of the most exciting music made in town. 

From 9-10PM tune in for Sports Rap--the only sports-centric talk-show that isn't afraid to ask the question: what is art?  Join hosts Reilly F and Sarah H (and friends of the show) to talk about the week in football, the UNC vs. ECU game, the All Players United demonstrations, the end of the baseball season, and the start of basketball news! Expect some of your favorite segments (Dramatic Readings from InsideCarolina, Shout Outs (of Doom)) and maybe some new ones (Sports Rap/Sports Blues)! 

Turn on your radio Monday night at 9 PM to hear the Outside Track.  This week you can hear Sign of Four- “Hammer, Anvil, and Stirrup” from Sign of Four.  Sign of Four is a new group featuring British multi-instrumentalist and composer Miles Newbold and the album boasts 11 well-executed, rhythmically trippy and multi-culti numbers.
