We're in the midst of Hanukkah so since we got our counter-Christmas episode taken care of last week, this one focuses on the Jewish festival of lights though there are some songs about default holidays and December in the mix. Our soundtrack profile is not tied to Hanukkah per se but a very dear soundtrack to me: 1971's Fiddler on the Roof, the film based on the legendary musical. L'chaim! We had to hoped to do this episode live for the 2nd night of Hanukkah but Vancouver got a nasty winter storm and the roads are a mess, so commuting up the hill to UBC has been reported as treacherous. Hence, we air this on Thursday afternoon with a repeat on Boxing Day so some listeners can enjoy this during the 8 crazy nights along with the usual Monday evening spot. Chag Sameach! 1.

As the holiday season feels like it's becoming normal, for our 15th annual counter carol episode, we'll go abnormal as we profile the 1974 Canuxploitation film Black Christmas and all sorts of darker Yuletide material. We've lost some key cultural folks tied to Christmas and music, so embrace the mix. We're doing this early so you don't feel utterly weird so if past episodes were your baking soundtracks, this one might need some advanced kitchenwork.

On January 17, 1963, the Fluxist Robert Filliou declared that art was born a million years hence when a man dropped a dry sponge into a bucket of water. Who was that man? It doesn't matter; he is dead but art is alive. Ancient life was all silence; we are all born into noise now.

gak's back from a whirlwind week in Europe, so he's got music tied to most of his time in Finland, along with one memorable night in Dublin where he finally saw Ennio Morricone conduct live. There's also music tied to Vancouver's upcoming New Forms Festival and tributes to Harry Dean Stanton (1926-2017) & Jake LaMotta (1922-2017).
The podcast server ran out of space the week this episode aired, so this episode is rather funky. I may rescue the actual Morricone profile in a future show.

Originally intended to celebrate Canada's 150th birthday but lined up nicely with both BC Day and the end to Pride Week in Vancouver, this episode goes into the weird fringes of a forgotten genre: Canadian disco! Montreal was a hotbed of disco in the late seventies and upon the global collapse, somehow the Canadian sound kept going. Amongst cheery & cheesy songs, we look at music from the 2011 film Funkytown which portrayed the Montreal disco scene. We also have a spaghetti western cover and an instructional piece on skating. Turn on the siren!

Bonus episode: I couldn't come up with anything for this year's celebration of art's birthday, but I did appear on Sara Lapsley's adaptation of H.G. Wells "War of the Worlds", most famously made into a radio play by Orson Welles. Along with me, there are appearances from Jon Wurster, Kaj Korvela and Jane Turner.
The film won 3 Golden Globes this past Sunday but its score is ineligible for an Oscar due to "too many composers". We look at The Revenant and some music from Ryuichi Sakamoto & Alva Noto. This supersized episode also dissects New Order's Blue Monday and mourns David Bowie (1947-2016) -- expect a longer profile later once I get more sleep than this long show.

Plenty of melodic jazz for the young at heart, whether you were a Snoopy fan or not. There are other Christmas songs to counterprogram against your usual mainstream selection.
