The Lounge [WRGW]

My current profession (along with college student) – radio host and producer!

On Thursday, 26/Jan, I premiered the first episode of The Lounge at WRGW district radio.  My show is a mixture of talk and music radio.  My playlists focus on a Global Fusion experience, showcasing artists from around the world who fuse genres, instrumentation, and vocals.  I discuss the artists and their music.  I also have a segment called “Stuff Like That” where I chat about random things and highlight events happening in DC.

I am so excited about this show.  I was a little nervous at first since I’m pretty much doing everything on my own and am kind of talking to myself, but once the music started – I was in my zone.

I would really appreciate it if you guys could check out my show.  You might enjoy the music.  I broadcast every Thursday at 6:20pm ET at WRGW.  I will also be uploading my episodes on MixCloud.  You can listen to my first episode below.

Please let me know what you think.  Do you have any music request?

Also, to any of you artists out there, I would be more than happy to have you as a guest.  Due to the advancement of technology, we don’t need to be in the same place to have an interview.  Let me know if you are interested.

Thanks in advanced.

Last Tango in Paris

While sampling some music to indulge my lounge mood, I came across a group called Gotan Project.  I immediately became a fan after listening to their music.  To me it sounds like a mixture of tango, jazz, Zorro, chill, and R&B.  The group is based in Paris and includes three members from France, Argentina, and Switzerland.  Below is one of their tracks – Last Tango in Paris – which was originally composed by Gato Barbieri for the 1972 film “Last Tango in Paris” with Marlon Brando and Maria Schneider.  I have not seen the film and judging by the information and critiques about it, the film caused quite a bit of controversy.  However….here….we are just enjoying the music.
