Sonic Café, that’s Brush Away, Alice in Chains music from 1995. So ahh what’s goin’ on? Glad you dropped by. This is episode 246 and I’m your host Scott Clark. This time the Sonic Café brings you a rapid-fire barrage of one-liners, yeah one-liners, those quick jokes that hit you right between the eyes. It’s a tricky style, but when perfected, it’s hilarious. We’ll feature Demetri Martin, an unconventional comic who really knows his way around a one-liner, and has an endless supply of material to prove it. Demetri has cited comedian Steven Wright as an important influence who helped him perfect the deadpan delivery style that’s made his humor so popular. Captured from all over the interwebs, the Sonic Café brings you a heaping helping of Demetri’s stand-up mixed with a batch of eclectic music tunes from 47 years. Listen for Oasis, Lou Reed, Tinariwen, The Shaky Hands and of course many more. All straight ahead in a lights out presentation of rapid-fire fun in something we’re calling Demetri drops the mic… this time from our little café, way out west, on the stormy Pacific coast, we’re the Sonic Café.

About the Producer:

Scott Clark has always had a lot of music in his life. Growing up outside of Chicago, he was mesmerized early on by the radio of the sixties and seventies and began collecting records at a very early age. From 45’s and LP’s to cassettes and CD’s and now digital… he really never stopped. Today everything in his library is digitized because he got sick of lugging all that stuff around.

The concept for the Sonic Café is to deliver the high production values and feel of the radio he grew up listening to. But unlike the tight, repetitious playlists of those commercial stations, feature a massive range of artists, genres and tunes. The whole idea is to package it in an eclectic, engaging, no repeat format that brings both new and old together in a unique, entertaining, and most importantly fun and fast paced way. There’s really nothing on the radio today, or in the past, that compares with it.

About the Sonic Café:

The show is set in an imaginary cafe overlooking the Pacific Ocean on the Central Oregon Coast. The cafe serves up eclectic, intelligent music, comedy and pop culture. The program originates from KYAQ radio located on the Oregon coast in the Pacific Northwest, so the imagery is not a huge stretch.

Each program is 58:00 minutes in length leaving room for station ID, promos and PSAs. Each episode is .mp3 encoded at a constant rate of 256kbps and ready for broadcast.

An episode is released each Friday. All episodes are evergreen; never focusing on time of year, weather, month, holidays, events etc. so each show is timeless. All music is presented in a no repeat format. Once a song airs in an episode it never airs again. Episodes may be downloaded and grouped together to quickly create program blocks of two, three, four or more hours in length.

The Sonic Cafe has a Facebook page (facebook.com/SonicCafeRadio) where complete show notes and playlists are presented for each episode. Listeners can also reach the show producers via email (SonicCafeRadio@gmail.com)
