Tonight’s show is presented fully in the spirit of creative commons and open source programming...finally. It’s been a year since KRUU opened its doors and raised its tower-of-power (happy 1 year anniversary
everybody!) and I began broadcasting on a radio station again (thank you, FCC).

As a musician who writes and plays his own tracks, the concept of having my music available for free just didn’t make sense. Open Source? Creative Commons? Hmmm..Sounded like Latin to me. No comprende amigo.

But the awesomeness has finally taken hold. Things have clicked. The pieces have come together. Now I get it.

It is a pleasure to finally have come around to understanding that we might be at a point in the evolution of humankind where giving does in fact equate to getting when all is said and done. Tonight’s show will therefore be music sourced from a creative commons/open source/listen-like-it-buy-it-sometime-if-you-can kinda thing… which means that for three hours you’ll be listening to the sounds and energy of two net-labels, indigo*magenta and the Broque label.  read more »

Tonite's show continues on with the original compositions of Obvious World's SoundRETROSPEKTIVE... there's tek-hop, drum n' bass, house, experimental and ambient compositions, along with a 30 minute mix --- all designed specifically for you.

The pieces grew from a deep desire to meld together the forms of hip hop with other genres, and then to just explode with odes to great new age psychedelic tribal gatherings organized by little elves in the thick mysterious forest.

Glad to have you travelling along on this adventure!
Love, Light and Blessings!

This Sunday night beginning at 11pm (eastern) there will be a barrage of beautiful music from some inspiring friends of mine. C. Threw throwing down a brand new mad series of rhymes we worked on together, Shaunbak will be sharing some of his seriously secret brand new tekno compositions mixed live for 50 minutes and then Yacob (aka: Yakob, Yakob Crin Cran, Rafael, RAW-FI. L, and Jacob Shier) will be showcasing exclusively for us, a massive 70 minutes of his original compositions ranging from funky disco to sweet ambient drum and bass to cool tekno. All in the true spirit of CREATIVE COMMONS.

Please tune in and enjoy the evening with us!
Maximum Love, Light and Blessings

Tonite's show will feature Creative Commons music from across the world...net-labels such as BROQUE.DE, MIKROTONIK and more..

There will be soothing pieces of chill-out, a touch of tekno, a very thick drum n' bass mix from the Sonic Walker folks, and then wind down the evening with a special niche blend of downtempo.

LOVE LIGHT AND BLESSINGS!

Terence McKenna: ...Adulthood seems to be a freezing of the reflex to play. And then one is forever caught where one was standing at age 25 when one suddenly became intellectually and and esthetically constipated.
Bruce Eisner: Right. And later a lot of the psychologists like Maslow and Jung said that the purpose of our whole life is to keep growing with self-actualization and self-realization. You know, in the earlier stages of Freudianism there is a place where it all ends according to conventional psychology. But in the new psychology, we constantly grow.
Terence McKenna: That's right. Human life that isn't growing is dying.  read more »

There are now 12 releases from Beautiful Eternal, even though the netlabel is officially less than two weeks old. Come bear witness to this rapidly expanding catalogue and bask in the warmth of the very first KRUU-inspired netlabel. See for yourself what can be accomplished in the spirit of CREATIVE COMMONS!
The new netlabel Beautiful Eternal is the product of a year's worth of education from Sundar Raman and James Moore about just how cool a tool Creative Commons (CC) actually is...I've been producing ambient and tribal electronic music for 14 years and even began my own "traditional" record label 10 years ago, but now the netlabel model with CC at its foundation is clearly the next stage of evolution.  read more »

This show is NOT for the faint of heart. It is a truly deep journey into the most abstract and profound realms of electronic music. It is a jaunt into a space and time that reflects the direction music is taking as we fly into the ultra_future. 2012 may very well need a soundtrack, and these artists and their music could be the candidates for that task.
Others who enjoy the sublime abstraction of the concepts of stress-release or impending earth changes could possibly discover the music's ties to physiologically empowering rhythms that exist in indigenous cultures and traditions; modalities which are meant to LIFT YOU UP and BRING YOU THROUGH blocks in creativity and consciousness in order to reveal a higher state of awareness.  read more »

On February 5th, my Great Teacher passed on into Mahasamadhi. His presence, his effort, his attention, his love, his devotion and his teachings have forever impacted the face of planet Earth. Personally, I have been enmeshed in Transcendental Meditation [TM] since just about the time I was born.
I attended courses with my Mom and I began meditating with a walking mantra and later moved on into the more advanced techniques. As a high school student @ Maharishi Upper School in Fairfield I spent my time rebelling against the dogma of the TM Movement, and then at the University of Iowa I began to explore consciousness via music, light and art...Raving and electronic music became power tools which needed juice and Transcendental Meditation was the obvious choice for me.  read more »

This sunday's show will begin with my newest drum n' bass song "Holy Mesina" which is an interstellar ode to the beatified and nearly cannonized saint, Antonia Mesina. It was written with full flurry on Wednesday February 27th 2008 and hits all the highs and lows with 3 movements during its 7 minute duration. From there the show will dip and dive into various Obvious World compositions spanning the entire map of conscious creation. No two songs will be alike and your attention span will NOT be tested. Instead this is a journey that I've been wanting to take with you for quite some time, a journey of creativity, an expedition of levity and curiosity full of color and emotion.  read more »

Stephe Rommel and I began djing together in art installation settings in January of 1993. At that time, I had just returned from the University of Iowa and he was attending M.I.U., fresh out of Santa Fe, New Mexico. His choice to meditate and to learn more about consciousness through Transcendental Meditation was interesting to me because I grew up meditating and rebelling against the dogma of the community, whereas he embraced it and made it his own.

His reality and background were curiously different than mine, and his style of djing and selecting music were unlike anything I had experienced before. His ear for psychedelic beauty in music and sound was unparalleled by other dj's I had known or interacted with prior to that point.  read more »
