APRIL 6TH - THE SECRET WORLD OF MOTHS:
Welcome to "The Western Front" - KGNU's experimental magazine show, delivering an action-packed variety of news, sounds, and a few other suprises (alternate Wednesday's from 9-11 pm) for our peeps along the Front Range.
We're back again this week with a handful of audio tricks to throw your way. First, we hit the streets to get your opinions with The Big Deal. We'll take a look at two VERY different musical duos, from the sample based compositions of Matmos to the moonshine drenched strains of Homer & Jethro. George Figgs tracks down some free tunes. Joe King makes animal noises. All that plus music the latest news and DJ sets from Joel Davis and Rob Bell.
