This Sunday, a friend encouraged me to tune into a show being broadcast from either Arizona or New Mexico (I can't remember) called "Star Streams". Normally, the radio is something reserved for the car, and very rarely does anything grab me. However, I was pleasantly surprised with this show. As I tuned in, it was in the closing sounds of a track off "Strange Cargo III". The show later went on to feature the domestic release of Ultramarine's "United Kingdoms". I also heard PWOG's "Obsidian" off of "Excursions in Ambience I". The guy was also peddling "ultrarare" copies of Ambient Dub Vol 1-3 for a fairly reasonable price. Then again, he played a whole lot of sparkly dolphin music and had advertisiments for his HOUSE and cheesy "wealth, money, love, and power" ads. This combined with a new-age-Don-Pardoe mannerism made me cringe between set breaks. Yet, it doesn't make for bad Sunday morning listening. He may come up with something I don't have and want to buy yet.

"Musical Starstreams", produced in Southern California, I think. Playlists are posted semi-regularly to rec.music.newage; is it Cliff Tuel who's got the inside scoop on that? We'll soon find out... a cc: of this is going to Cliff. I'd been meaning to find out more about this show for the ambient survey. Mike Mike J.

Ya, the show is Musical Star Streams from Arizona... I guess it's syndicated because we get this show in Chicago on the New Age/Lite Jazz station. Comes on from 10pm-12am Sunday night on 95.5 WNUA Chicago.

A couple weeks ago, he was playing alot of tracks of Trance Europe Express. I was kind of amazed to hear Cosmic Baby going at around 140-145bpm on this station... that's what caught me as I was scanning the radio stations.

Yeah, some of the stuff he plays isn't exactly my taste but about 40-50% of it is worthwhile...

However, I was pleasantly surprised with this show. Yeah, it's generally pretty cool. But then again, most of the music I hear on public radio in general is in the least fair to good. [...] ::Then again, he played a whole lot of sparkly dolphin music and had ::advertisiments for his HOUSE and cheesy "wealth, money, love, and power" ads. ::This combined with a new-age-Don-Pardoe mannerism made me cringe between set ::breaks. Agreed. I tend to mentally tune out his ramblings, but you have to understand that this show is most likely listened to religiously by the whole New Age{tm} set (read sect ;-). ::Yet, it doesn't make for bad Sunday morning listening. He may come up with ::something I don't have and want to buy yet. Ooh, Sunday morn? It airs in Milwaukee late Sunday nights. I'd much rather hear that music when I rise in the morning. I know, I'll set my vid machine timer for Sunday night, connect the audio-in to the tuner of my stereo system and then listen to the shows one week delayed in the morning. Wow, why didn't I think of this before. Perfect chill music for waking the morning after a rave. =) e x t r a p o l a t e steve j. white _____________________________________________________________________________ Gort, klatu barada nicto. aragorn@alpha1.csd.uwm.edu
