Deedlecast

Though DJDeedle usually faces the music every Friday, this week and

next, Deedlecast arrives on Thursday so your tunes will be handy for

Christmas and New Year's Day.  This week, DJDeedle indulges the

audiophiles in the audience with a little of this and a little of that

to test the highs and lows, and the limits and levels, of your system's

woofers and tweeters.  So, if you happen to get a fancy new sound

system, a new ipod, new speakers, or new computer from Santa, this

week's Deedlecast uses the full range of sound and tone to ensure your

new toy is up to Deedlecast standards.

Holiday Fruitcake

As winter sets in, the days are short and the nights are long, the weather turns chill, and we find ourselves hard pressed to leave our comfy homes.  When the need to dance strikes, though, what are we to do?  Not to worry!  We can always dance to the the radio.  Not that crap that comes over the airwaves, though - DJDeedle's radio, DanceRadio.  This week, tune to the groove, crank up this Deedlecast, and dance like no one's watching.  Need more DJDeedle radio?

Sometimes to get the result you want, you have to play a little

good-cop-bad-cop, the hard with the soft, the rough with the smooth,

the gentle with the cruel.  This week's Deedlecast plays all those

cards and breaks down even the toughest veneer, the most hardened felon, the baddest riff, the blackest beat.  Before listening to

this show, you may want to call your lawyer.

This holiday week, DJDeedle dials the beat down a little. Or does he? This Deedlecast is all sleight of hand, smoke and mirrors, and you'll never guess what's coming next.

Technology is notoriously fickle.  What today is state-of-the art is laughably dated tomorrow.  Though the digital world may be moving from quaint 32-bit to zippy 64-bit, this digital deejay is in no hurry.  Find all this computer architecture stuff a little mystifying? No worry.  Leave it all to DJDeedle - for now, your 32-bit DJ.  This week's Deedlecast weaves the old and the new, the digital and the analog, the electronic and the acoustic. The music may be virtual, but the DJ is very real.

They've arrived unexpectedly, and it appears they'd like to stay.  Beware of visitors bearing gifts.  This week, DJDeedle brings you the sounds you need to keep your sanity when it looks like there's no escape.

A piece of Friday's Deedlecast, Cosmology, this single is a DJDeedle remix/mashup of two youtube creations, a moving and haunting tribute to Sagan and his work, "Cosmos," and an ode to science and man's place in the cosmos, featuring Sagan and his colleague scientists, Bill Nye, Stephen Hawking, Richard Feynman, and Neil DeGrasse Tyson. The beauty of the song is not the voices and scraps of sound, but the way they are put together.
