Sonic Café, are you a wild Mustang or a tame little kitty? The Kings of Leon want to know. Welcome aboard as we blast into the future! I’m your host, Scott Clark, and this is episode 477. This time, the Sonic Café brings you a killer mix of music, laugh-out-loud comedy shorts, and a vintage flashback featuring the Fire Bolt Action Machine Gun—a Mattel toy from the '60s that definitely wouldn’t fly today. It's our first retro sponsor, part of a new feature to show how much times have changed. Our music spans 54 years, you’ll hear Taj Mahal with Statesboro Blues, Elle King belting out Ex’s & Oh’*, a fresh track from The Black Keys' 2024 Ohio Players release, plus U2, The Dirty Truckers, Ian Dury & The Blockheads, The Chats bringing that Aussie punk energy, and more. Then, around the bottom of the hour, the Sonic Cafe spins up another disco classic—A Taste of Honey’s Boogie Oogie Oogie. So dust off your mirror ball and get ready to booogie. And those comedy shorts we mentioned? Listen for Sheng Wang, Norm MacDonald, and the legendary George Carlin. So let’s do this thing. . From 2005, here’s The Fray —and we’re the Sonic Café.

About the Producer Scott Clark grew up outside Chicago with a radio always nearby. The sound of the 1960s and ’70s left a lasting impression, sparking an early love of music and the art of radio itself. That passion quickly turned into a lifelong habit—listening, collecting, and discovering music across every format imaginable.
Over time, the collection grew massive, the crates got heavier, and eventually everything went digital. What never changed was the belief that radio could be smarter, broader, and more fun than what most commercial stations allow.
That belief became The Sonic Café. About the Sonic Café The Sonic Café is a high-production, eclectic radio program designed to feel like great radio used to—while sounding unlike anything on the dial today. The show is set in an imaginary café overlooking the Pacific Ocean on the Central Oregon Coast, a relaxed and inviting space where music, comedy, and pop culture flow together naturally.
Unlike tightly formatted commercial playlists, the Sonic Café draws from a massive range of artists, genres, and eras. Each show blends new discoveries with deep catalog gems, presented in a fast-paced, engaging, and carefully curated format.
Each episode is 58 minutes long, leaving room for station IDs, promos, and PSAs. Programs are delivered as 256 kbps constant-bit-rate MP3 files, ready for broadcast.
New episodes are released weekly and are completely evergreen, never tied to specific dates, seasons, or events. All music is presented in a no-repeat format—once a song airs, it never airs again. Stations can easily combine episodes to create multi-hour program blocks with no duplication.
Complete playlists and show notes are available at facebook.com/SonicCafeRadio. Listeners and stations may contact the producers at SonicCafeRadio@gmail.com.
