Welcome to Radio Free D’ni!
Welcome to the homepage of Radio Free D’ni. You will find here both our current announcements and our past playlists. Our links to the music stream are at the top, just above this post. And there’s a stream player right here (mind you, it’ll only play anything when the stream is on).
Generally speaking, we present a new show every other week, at 1300 KI time, with remastered versions of our shows from five years ago in the intermediate weeks. We have pre-show music usually starting 30 minutes earlier (so getting on the stream at 12:30 KI time might be a good idea), and also a good bit of music after the show proper.
See you in the Cavern

13:00 KI is 8 pm in the UK, 9 pm in CET. KI time is Mountain Time in the US, and it follows DST… I can only assume that when Victor Laxman got the KI’s working again he synch’d them to surface time in New Mexico…

Blues. Moody Blues.
Imagine starting a Blues band, having a major Beat hit, going into psychedelic, creating one of the first concept albums, going full Prog Fusion including a crossover classical/Rock album, taking a short break, and starting into the next decade with a major synthpop hit.
Sounds busy? Well… this week’s featured band did it all, and then some.

275 Easy Listening
We tell you that we’ll have something different every week, and this was one of them 🙂 A fascinating delve into a corner of the music business that is sometimes belittled but was and still is hugely successful commercially. Tracks from Britain, the US and Germany covered a wide range of styles but still leaving many untouched. Up to 21 listener connections too, which was gratifying.
It’s Easy!
Well, it may not be easy being green, but this week it will be easy to listen as we take a shot at the somewhat wobbly-ly defined genre of Easy Listening. Often pigeonholed as “elevator music,” it actually really is not (the frequency-gated drizzle one hears in elevators and similar places is usually called Muzak, after the company that originally invented and marketed it), and can actually be fun to listen to.

149R Free
A fine show, a personal favorite, being stuff from my formative musical years. Well attended too, despite it being Memorial Day in the US, so we were very pleased.
Free!
This week, we will have a look at the band that fell apart before parts of it fell into Bad Company. Well, it fell together again after its first falling apart, for a bit. It’s all a bit complicated. But feel Free to listen in!

274 Jefferson Airplane
Back to the late Sixties we went and to San Francisco for some source material from the Summer of Love, still smelling slightly of patchouli, from Jefferson Airplane. Tracks from beginning to end of their career, with some later stuff and side projects in the postshow. Slight technical issues aside, the show went down well.
Goin’ Flyin’
This week we will take a look at the work of Jefferson Airplane the band, not the defunct airplane manufacturer of whose existence the band had not even heard when they picked their name. To be clear, we’re looking at Jefferson Airplane, not the three similarly-named bands former members thereof would later form. That out of the way, we’ll have a nice trip (geddit?) into the beginnings of Psychedelic Rock with one of the founding bands of the genre.

148R Robben Ford
A show full of great guitar playing from Robben Ford, whose style and ability sound equally at home in jazz, rock and blues. Mothers Day in the US may have reduced our audience numbers, but those who came enjoyed it enthusuastically.
Muggen Dodge. Er, Holden-up Chevy.
Actually, Robben Ford is the topic of tonight’s show, the versatile Blues, Jazz and Rock guitarist with only one face, but lots of versatility. We’ll take you across his solo and band work as well as some of his extensive sessions for and with other artists.
See you in the Cavern,

273 John Williams
Specifically chosen for May 4th, because of its Star Wars association, this show went down very well with our listeners who came along in good numbers. We’re sorry that we could not include all your favourites, but the list of John Williams music is very long.
