Whatsup A-Jazzers,
I just wanted to drop a line to say that starting this week
(Thurs.9pm-11pm) I'll be spinnin' a weekly 2hr. show on the college
radio station here at Clemson University dedicated exclusively to
Acid-Jazz/Trip-Hop. As a lurker/occasional commenter on this list
for the past 12 mo. or so, I just thought you'd like to know that
my show will be heavily influenced by the discussion/selections/etc.
gleaned from this list. Since gettin' hooked on the sound, I have
learned so much from the interaction on the A-J list, thanks to all.

And to all labels,DJs,startup artists out there, I am actively
seeking out material to promote/play on the show. Right now I'm
starting with my personal collection, but I hope to move exclusively
into playing promo material as I receive it/evaluate ASAP, especially
those that share the vision of this list. Our station, WSBF, has a
few existing connections, but with little previous emphasis on this
genre, we don't get too much in the way of cool stuff. We do fax
and web-based chart reporting to CMJ,star-trax, and others are possible
upon request. Admittedly, we aren't exactly a big urban market out
here between Charlotte,NC and Atlanta,GA but with a student pop. of
17,000 plus faculty,staff,locals... and a lack of ANY commercial
alternatives for jazz or acid-jazz, I believe it could be successful.
If you are interested, let me know by email or send material to:
