CD of the Month

dfsd

Radio 1190’s CD of the Month for January is the debut full-length album from Fire on Fire, entitled The Orchard. Some members of Fire on Fire came from Cereberus Shoal, an art-punk-prog collective, who joined two others to form a quintet. They play banjo, accordion, guitar and bass as well as oud, nay and doumbek. This album was released on Young God Records, a label started by Michael Gira in 1990 originally intended to release SWANS music. The Orchard follows a limited edition, handmade EP released in 2007 that was enthusiastically received. Radio 1190 would like to thank Twist and Shout in Denver for their continued support of the CD of the month club.

Westword honors Radio 1190

"Back in 1998, before it was subsumed by Clear Channel, Jacor wound up with one more station than it could keep under FCC rules. Instead of holding a fire sale, execs donated it to the University of Colorado at Boulder, which up until then had made do with a school radio station that broadcast to the dorms using carrier current. A decade later, Radio 1190 is a station worthy of celebrating, with a reach that goes far outside of CU and even Boulder. It's an oasis of exciting music, creative programming and community support in a desert of corporate mediocrity. Happy tenth, and may there be many more anniversaries to follow." -Westword, Best of Denver 2008

A true homage to the romance of receiving a mix tape, A Side/ B Side gives a weekly dose of themed loving for all listeners.

Like a variety show on quaaludes, DJ Carolyn spins obscure and seemingly unconnected song choices into a cohesive theme each week. From drinking to video games to songs your grandma may like, A Side/ B Side keeps you on your toes with constant variety.

Tune in every Friday evening from 6 to 7 for a new theme each week.
