Begilufin - Berlin Live: Guitars #189

We play a wild, confusing mess of international sounds, stretching from the birth of recorded music to something we heard two days ago. We do our best to ignore the normal, accentuate the weird, and ignore borders, boundaries and time-zone. After PiRadio’s traditional summer break (after which we are truly broken), Begilufin is back to pollute the airwaves once again. Tonight your axe-swinging hosts Ziv Lode and Dan Abbott will be twanging their way through and hour of sounds themed around GUITARS. We know what you’re thinking, “Guitars! Who’d have thought it? What will these crazy radio clowns think up next with their twisted minds? The humble guitar guitar, that most overlooked of musical instruments. We’ll be snapping your ear-strings with a splurge of guitars from all over, which may well include tunes from Brazil, Germany, Japan, France and the Republic of Upper Volta (of course). Tune in and tune up, motherpluckers! As always, this is live, spontaneous and rather silly radio - we always throw in a couple of mistakes for your entertainment 1. The Soft Boys - Old Pervert 2. Johnny ‘Guitar’ Watson - Space Guitar 3. Funkadelic - i got a thing you got a thing everybody's got a thing 4. Nashil Pichen & The Eagles Lupopo - Ng'Ong'a Wa Mwanjalo 5. Het - Kejje Nagaan 6. Stamatis Spanoudakis - Army 7. Jacques Dutronc - A La Queue Les Yvelines 8. The Natural Yoghurt Band - Sticky Fingers 9. The Natural Yoghurt Band - Playing With Fire 10. Michael Yonkers - Micro-Miniature Love 11. Cake - Guitar Man 12. Marc Ribot - The Big Fool # Begilufin Begilufin is an hour long radio show broadcast live twice a month from the heart Berlin on the station Pi Radio. On Begilufin we play a wild, confusing mess of international sounds, stretching from the birth of recorded music to something we heard two days ago. We do our best to ignore the normal, accentuate the weird, and ignore borders, boundaries and time-zones. Each show revolves around a central theme and then we surprise each other (and you, dear listener) with our selections live on air. Since you ask, ‘Begilufin’ is a Hebrew word meaning intoxicated, inebriated, drunk, sozzled or smashed - a perfect description of the delirious off-centre mix of crazed music we like to spin on the show or indeed the effect it might have on your ears. Begilufin was created by Ziv Lode in 2010. Ziv was joined by Dan Abbott a couples of years later after a chance meeting in a kindergarten playground revealed a mutual love of the music of Erkin ‘The Turkish Hendrix’ Koray. * https://www.mixcloud.com/begilufin/ * https://www.instagram.com/begilufinradio/
