Begilufin - Berlin Live: One Word Titles (#2) #249

from Pi Radio · host Pi Radio

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. TONITE on your RADIO! It’s the Begilufin Songs-With-One-Word-Titles Special Part2 ! Tonight your wordy hosts Ziv Lode and Dan Abbott are back with a whole hour of ONE WORD SONGS! They say a picture’s worth a thousand words, but sometimes a song is only worth ONE WORD. Tonight we’ll be playing transglobal musical scrabble with crossed eyes and spinning ears, in a pop-art experiment to show what can be done with a single WORD. The result will be a surprising sentence, just as the Begilufin judges sentence you to one hour of radio - Tune in! That’s an order! On our “island” section in the middle of tonight’s show we’ll be paying our respects to the recently departed Hermeto Pascoal, Brazil’s musical flying sorcerer. As always, this is spontaneous and occasionally quite silly radio - we often throw in a couple of genuine mistakes for your entertainment. 1. The Devil’s Anvil - Shisheler 2. Grazia - Muhabbet 3. Nicolas Godin - Orca 4. ZZZ - Lucy 5. Jimmy Fontana - Nuvole 6. Malvina Reynolds -Dialectic 7. Komeda - Curious 8. Tom Zé - Doi 9. Quarteto Novo - Misturada 10. Hermeto Pascoal & Grupo Vice Versa - Mavumvavumpefoco 11. Orchestre Tout Puissant Marcel Duchamp - Dehors 12. Jean-Bernard De Libreville ,- Sexophone 13. Baba Zula - Kısaltmalar # 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/
