I was recently contacted on Jamendo by a DJ at a radio show who wanted to know if he could play Ramp on his show. I, of course, said yes. He said that he thought I’d be a perfect fit for his show. Since you’re all here reading, that strikes me as meaning that you might enjoy his show as well. I figured that I’d drop you some details about the show in case you’er interested in tuning in some time.
Here’s the quick run-down that he gave me:
The name of the program is “The Falling Room”. It’s a one hour show broadcast live on Fridays at 8:00PM (EST) and re-broadcast on Tuesdays at 12:00AM (the rebroadcast time may change but the live airing will remain a constant) on CFBU 103.7 FM in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada. You can visit the radio station’s website, at cfbu.ca and click under “program schedule” at the very top of the web page, to view when “The Falling Room” is scheduled to be broadcast. You can also the show live through the cfbu.ca website. There is a “listen online” link at the top of the page.
The focus of “The Falling Room” is to feature primarily independent artists who produce experimental, minimalist, ambient, spoken word and avant garde music that falls completely outside the mainstream of commercial music and radio. Since April 2009 I have featured over 70 independent artists that fit the format of the show as well as more well known artists such as Brian Eno, Pat Methany, Steve Reich, Terry Riley, Tangerine Dream, Laurie Anderson, Jean Michel Jarre, The Golden Palominos and Michael Oldfield.
Also, if you have any friends who play experimental music, poetry, avant garde or minimalist music let them know about the show.
The last bit is likely so you can also submit your work. 
In any case, check it out! I missed this past Friday’s show, but I’m going to see if I can record the rebroadcast somehow.
