Radio Thrift Shop features a flexible format & is an homage to the "underground" era of broadcasts of the 1960's and 1970's that DJ Frederick grew up listening to. RTS features a homegrown mix of vinyl records, 78s, 45's, LPs, private press releases, and a variety of cassette tapes and homemade / self released cds. Each broadcast of Radio Thrift Shop features an improvised playlist from DJ Frederick's music library
Radio Thrift Shop is a homegrown, homespun show created and produced by DJ Frederick (Frederick Moe) and broadcast since 1999 on WSCS 90.9 in New London NH Saturday evenings from 10 pm until midnight eastern time. DJ Frederick has been broadcasting at WSCS for 20+ years & 45 years on the airwaves overall. DJ Frederick has hosted radio programs on WNEC, WBCQ, WRMI, WHAR, The Global Voice and Radio 292 shortwave in Europe
Radio Thrift Shop episodes dig into DJ Frederick's musical archives & sometimes revolve around specific themes (i.e. Forgotten 45s, cover songs, library music) & other times are improvised. RTS features 33s, 45s, scratchy 78s, classic cassettes & cds. I enjoy spinning classic rock and pop, jazz, exotica, folk, acoustic, folk-rock, indie pop, lo-fi, psychedelic, library, easy listening & just about everything else I can dig out of the crates. Sometimes it all makes sense by the end of the hour. Occasionally these shows include documentaries or segments about the history and culture of music and/or radio. I invite your LPFM, Part 15, online or other radio project to broadcast Radio Thrift Shop. This is a labor of love! With much gratitude to listeners and radio fans everywhere ~ DJ Frederick
