Sonic Café, the radio program that’s a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma, ahh yeah, hey Psychedelic Furs music there from 1987. I’m Scott Clark, your host and the ahh enigma part of this whole thing. Welcome to episode 308. This time the Sonic Café presents another Fractured Fairytale narrated by Edward Everett Norton. The tale of Cinderella, that story about a fairy godmother, a princess, a prince and a glass slipper, right? Well in addition to that our fairy godmother’s also got a multi-level marketing scam selling kitchen cookware for some reason. So yeah. Our tale is wrapped in a music mix fit for a fairytale, pulled from the last 34 years that includes the Wallflowers, Kimbra, the Yeah, Yeah, Yeah’s, Local Natives, Liz Phair and as usual many more. Oh and before we forget, a perfectly sized glass slipper welcome to our latest sponsor Herr Gruber’s Spa, for those who know it takes the stern hand of a German beautician, scientist and disciplinarian to let you know what it really takes to be beautiful. So all that and more straight ahead in another hour of intelligent, eclectic radio that’s fun. From the Hyperspace album, here’s music from Beck. As always, 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 week. 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)
