Ultimate Intimacy
Mondays 8-10pm
facebook page
Show Description
Ultimate Intimacy is always a radio show and is often fun. In the past I’ve tried to restrict my show to two or three genres, but that never lasts long. This time I’ll just say that my favorite artists are people like The Walkmen, The Magnetic Fields, Grandaddy, Prince, Lightning Bolt, Mr. Bungle, Silver Jews and, as of this year, Shilpa Ray. I am not sorry for party rocking (I’m sure this reference will be exactly as funny in nine months as it is today).

Austin Ryan

Offbeat and On Rhythm
Fridays 2-4pm
Show Description
Explore the mythical and confounding world of progressive and strange rock and roll. Take a tour of the brilliant, talented and bizarre bounty of experimental and unique rock, from Rush to The Mars Volta to Dream Theater. You can expect to hear everything on the rock and roll spectrum whether it be aged and pure classical acoustics or electronic ambience laced with heavy chords and trumpet work. I will try to guide you through the eclectic and odd jungle of mad melodies with insight that extend beyond names and timeframes. If I can’t then I’ll probably just blabber on about something inconsequential. Regardless, the tunes will flow as freely as water in this veritable oasis of sound.

Sundays 4am-6am

Show Description
As we all know, Saturday nights are fun (especially for college students). As the festivities progress into the early morning we realize that we have a rough morning ahead of us. Sleep deprivation and the like are the unfortunate effects of “The Morning After”. Rosemary’s and my show, The Morning After, aims to heal the ailing college student while they are wide awake at 4-5am on Sundays. We’ll play some chill Indie music to wind down and relax to. Have some pancakes, tune into The Morning After, and chillax with some lovely on-air personalities.

Rhyme and Reason
Sundays 12pm-2pm
Show Description
Despite the name of this show, there actually is neither rhyme nor reason in terms of what I decide to play. Basically, it tends to be whatever I’m finding enjoyable at the moment, and that tends to include music with loud guitars. Same of my favorite artists include The White Stripes (or anything associated with Jack White, really), Arcade Fire, The National, The Hold Steady, and Wilco. If you like these kind of bands, great! If not, tune in and give it a try anyways.

Funnel of Love
Thursdays 2pm-4pm
Show Description
The perfect dinner party jams. What always bums me out is when a playlist is NOT suitable for a the eating situation. It’s a total drag. My show is not only about music but also about food. Most think that food music is restricted to classical and “adult” tunes, but I will be playing my favorite “music to eat with” such as the Misfits,No Doubt, and The Raincoat. I will be giving short reviews on restaurants in DC , dorm room delicacies and food blogs. Also, maybe answering that age old question “What should I eat for dinner?”.

Playground Sounds
Thursdays 8pm-10pm
Show Description
Ever wanted to listen to music when you wake up or you are about to fall asleep but you are way too tired/drunk/crossfaded to actually select an artist? This is what you have been looking for. Playground Sounds is a show about discovering music that comes from all kinds of place and that makes you jiggy, laugh and reflect. On this show, you will hear electronica, folk, rock, indie, pop, indie-pop, indie-rock (I could go on). Just click on listen now, open it up on your itunes, and hear me play some tunes for you which will make you kick back, relax and enjoy.

It’s six o’clock. Do you know where your daughter is? She’s having family friendly funny fun time with Christian and Jeremy live on WVAU!
In this increasingly deviant age that we live in with teenagers premarital sexting and worshiping the golden calf of popular culture, Christian and Jeremy are voices of reason and moral rectitude. Was it really too long ago when the entire family would gather aroundthe radio in the living room and listen to reggaeton, indie rock, international groups, and underground hip hop? Well Christian and Jeremy say its time America does a little soul searching. So gather your neighbors, your pets, and everyone in between to come funtivitate with the whole family every Saturday night from 6 to 8

Show Description
This show’s main idea is to go through generations of music and see what bands influenced or inspired each other. Some of the music will be all over the place, but  will probably be mainly lo-fi and similar types of rock music, but then again I don’t understand genres. It can include artists like Pavement, the Replacements, Talking Heads, Big Star, Neil Young and more! So just listen, whether you are under the influence of anything or not.

No, my show has nothing to do with birds or pirates. Here are some other things you WON’T find on my show: the latest hipster band I just made up, Lady Gaga, that soft rock song you hear at work every day, the ‘rap’ song you heard 7 times at the club last Friday, or anything generated entirely by computers.
I know what you’re thinking, “What else could there possibly be?”
Well here are some things you WILL hear on my show: Reggae (More than just Bob Marley), Jazz, Blues, R&B, and World music (which could be anything from Brazilian Jazz to African Rock to Spanish Punk to Latin Rap), plus some Hip/Hop and Rock, hopefully that you don’t know by heart.
