Hi everyone,

It’s that time again - time for me to let you know about the exciting programming WXYC has coming up in the near future. Here’s what to expect on the airwaves this week:

Tonight at 9pm on the Inside Track, tune in to hear f(x) by Carter Tutti Void! British industrial/darkwave couple Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti (of Throbbing Gristle, Chris & Cosey, and Carter Tutti) are joined here by Nik Colk Void (Factory Floor). The release is propulsive, industrial, and full of whispers, various dungeon moans, and decay.

After that, tonight's New Science Experience will be the first installment of '*"NSE and Friends"*', in which we train a group of first time DJs and have them mix on air together during the broadcast! We'll hear an eclectic mix of dance music concepts - it should be a good time. Tune in from 10pm to midnight!

Tune in to the Orange County Special this Sunday, 11am to 1pm, for traditional and contemporary folk music from the South and beyond. As patron saint of American folk, Woodie Guthrie, once said :“Any fool can make something complicated. It takes a genius to make it simple.”

This Sunday on Hell or High Water, 1 to 2 pm, Cooper M will be serving up some classic folk tunes from legend and king of Greenwich Village, Dave Van Ronk. Tune in to hear some blues, jazz, and gospel inspired folk from the man who served as an inspiration to likes of Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell.

This week's Sports Rap, Sunday from 9 to 10pm, will be an NBA Season Preview Bonanza! (FLEX BOMB). The Sports Rap Boys will be talking NBA, NBA, and more NBA (shoutout Michael Jordan).

And catch the Outside Track, Monday from 9 to 10pm, to hear Insomni by Simon Scott, a British sound artist who has been active in creating installation art and soundtracks since 1990. Insomni showcases a variety of techniques that Scott has experimented with throughout his career. Tune in for field recordings, blasts of feedback, soft ambient synths, synth noise, glitch, acoustic guitar work, wind instruments, and voices interwoven throughout.
