Idyllic Music Podcast

ABOUT

A Weekly Podcast featuring Trip Hop, Ambient, Jazz, Dub and Downtempo songs by outstanding bands from around the globe. It gets called "organic electronic music" or "folksy electronica" or, more frequently, "electronic pastoral" or "headphone electronica" with the hypnotic chord progressions, childlike melodies and ethereal textures that mark bands like Boards of Canada and Four Tet. Music in which shifts in synthesized sonic texture and coloration do the work of imagistic lyrics, suggesting place, narrative, meaning. Music that evokes a 21st-century pastoral, a sense of the temporal and spatial collapse of the distance between city and countryside. Music for the smaller moments.

I have always been drawn to music that is subtle, less intense but more rhythmic and melodic than current pop music. I hope to feature some on this podcast.

At one point, I hosted a broadcast radio show in the Midwest but was edged out by satellite technology. I've been a music promoter, author, network analyst and house painter.

I play in the minimalist electronic band Idyllic.
