Over the Edge of the Pop Narcotic presents:
Black Consciousness on Over the Edge of the Pop Narcotic
A political and intellectual movement that has roots in the early 1970's South African anti-apartheid movement (think Biko), and American hard bop jazz, funk and soul, black consciousness is pervasive in the world's pop musics. I'm taking on the daunting task of trying to play some of the music that has connections in black consciousness

Wednesday September 20, 3:00-5:00 PM

Church of the Ecstatic 9/20/17 – The Future is NOW
I've been in a very cyberpunk mood, from the shows and games I've been watching, to the tech I've been using, to the magazines I've been reading and news I've been absorbing. We're in Space Year 2017, where anything is possible. I have a calculator watch, our President sends messages over Twitter, you can listen New Music Machine presents:
