Coming Up In The World

This is a very exciting month for me, as I have officially become the newest member of the team at Radio Riel Internet Public Radio.

Radio Riel is celebrating its 10th Anniversary, and there are many special events being scheduled throughout the month of June.

As of this posting I don't have a date or time for my Radio Riel presentation, which will be part of the festivities, so please check back for that notice.  In the meantime I can tell you what I've got planned for my next dance at The Temple.

There are times when you want to be transported, to get your mind around some stuff it never encountered before. And what if the thing transporting you doesn't come from your neighborhood?

-- David Byrne, Crossing Music's Borders: 'I Hate World Music', The New York Times, October 3, 1999

Thursday, June 8, 2017 I will present 90 minutes of World-influenced, electronic, dance music. I hesitate to use the term "World Music", or even "World Dance", because those terms simply don't describe the many different styles of instrumentation or their origins. I'll call this multicultural, electronic, beat music, and I'll let you decide how you want to label it.  Better yet, let the music transport you to far-off lands, or just around the corner.

7:00 to 8:30 pm, Pacific Time (SLT)
The Temple in Rosehaven, (Second Life)
Recommended Attire: Comfortable, casual, and appropriate for the General/Moderate nature of the sim.

June Howl

This month, the Howl's musical theme will be Industrial Goth and "Witch House" , especially for Her Highness, Princess Selena. Witch House is considered a micro-genre of electronic music. It is described as "occult-inspired, dark electro... influenced by infused hip-hop sounds, mashed up and screwed beats, random industrial sounds, and irregular noises." Read more at Beat https://beat.media/what-is-witch-house . The Howl events occur twice a day; first at noon SLT and again at 7:00 pm SLT, to accommodate our denizens in different time zones.  Both events are 90 minutes in length. Friday, June 29, from 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM and again 7:00 - 8:30 PM PDT and SLT, at The Lair, in Rosehaven (Second Life). Fantasy or Goth attire from any era is encouraged. When in doubt, wear Black!

July Howl for the Buck Moon

This month our Howl falls on the Full Moon which happens to be called the "Buck Moon".  Apparently, the month of July is when young deer develop their antlers.  Musically, I've got nothing for that theme... but some of my favorite antlered-folk are fond of Classical music so I'll present a set of Dark Ambient, Alternative and Classical music at The Lair in Rosehaven. The Howl events occur twice a day; first at noon SLT and again at 7:00 pm SLT, to accommodate our denizens in different time zones.  Both events are 90 minutes in length. Friday, July 27, from 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM and again 7:00 - 8:30 PM PDT and SLT, at The Lair, in Rosehaven (Second Life). Fantasy or Goth attire from any era is encouraged. When in doubt, wear Black!
