Begilufin - Berlin Live: Travel (#2) #247

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 TRAVEL Special, Part 2! Join Ziv Lode and Dan Abbott, your roaming radio renegades, for another 60 minutes of international music themed around TRAVEL. Begilufin has always been a show that skips from continent to continent in the space of a song, gliding through the musical skyways held aloft by a giant pair or ears. Tonight our rocking’ rucksacks are packed with TRAVEL songs from Italy, Israel, Brazil, India, France and perhaps even Trinidad. Tune in tonight, leave your troubles behind, and end up somewhere very different to where you started. As always, this is spontaneous and occasionally quite silly radio - we often throw in a couple of genuine mistakes for your entertainment. 1. Attilio Mineo - Mile A Minute Monorail 2. Tom Lehrer - In Old Mexico 3. Nicola Arigliano - 20 km al giorno 4. Mr Ho's Orchestrotica - Sentimental Journey 5. Eugene McDaniels - Cherrystones 6. Rainbow Family - Travellin' Lady 7.

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/
