WFMU: Bryce: Playlist from September 11, 2020

Listener comments!
	♥ 12:03pm Hubig Pie: Yay, it's Sub-continent day
	♥ 12:04pm Krys O.: Good afternoon!
	♥ 12:07pm YETI BOB: U. Srinivas was perhaps the best concert I've ever been to. Certainly very special. Totally moving & spellbinding. The musicians (a quartet) were more focused and present than anyone else I've ever seen perform. I felt fortunate to even be in the same room as them, breathing the same air. R.I.P. "Mandolin" U. Srinivas.
	♥ 12:07pm Handy Haversack: Bryce! Brycycles! Hello!
	♥ 12:08pm Chop Scott: Good Afternoon Bryce!
	♥ 12:08pm Paddy MeBoy: Ahhhh yes the Friday chill out. Please calm this wild mind. I pray for peace and health to all. By pray I mean drink beer.
	♥ 12:09pm Bryce: hey!!! :)
	♥ 12:12pm YETI BOB: Years ago somebody left a copy of Srinivas' "Dawn Raga" in my room ... it just showed up one day, I'm not sure who left it there ... possibly someone I was dating but they never mentioned it. Seemed like a bit of magic. I've listened to that disc so many times now - usually at dawn, sometimes after being up all night. Totally transcendent music, it had a major impact on me. Very happy to hear Srinivas here today.
	♥ 12:15pm Ike: The cats are focused intently on something out the window, but what? Birds? Insects? Airplanes? I think it's airplanes.
	♥ 12:16pm steveo: twinkies, clearly
	12:17pm ami ad: Hello DJ. Hello all.
	12:18pm Chris from DC: Preclickied with good reason.
	♥ 12:20pm Bryce: oh jesus, 400 TB of indian classical, and i played this exact track 5 months ago, lmaoooo i've got to start double-checking!
	♥ 12:21pm YETI BOB: Raga Hemavati (the scale/mode used in Srikanthimati) is the same as the Ukranian Minor scale - like a natural minor, but with a raised 4 and a major 6. Most Indian ragas don't map as neatly onto Western scales (I supposed Ukraine is on the eastern edge of the West - it still sounds a bit "exotic")
	♥ 12:21pm Handy Haversack: Hummingbird about 7' away from me. It's working, Bryce!
	♥ 12:21pm Ike: Who remembers 5 months ago? I barely remember 5 hours ago.
	♥ 12:22pm Handy Haversack: That's what the name basically means in Russian, as I recall, YB: beyond the pale. Other.
	♥ 12:22pm YETI BOB: @Bryce: It's working perfectly now, don't second-guess yourself. And 5 months is a long time, practically forever
	12:23pm Chris from DC: It's fantastic, yeah.
	♥ 12:25pm Handy Haversack: The teenage cardinals are also hitting puberty back here. Suddenly sex-differentiating. I'm not saying THAT's Bryce's doing. But I'm not saying it's not.
	♥ 12:26pm Yes: hello everyone
	♥ 12:27pm Ike: Although weirdly, I do remember seeing in an LCD Magazine in the 90s that this show used to be called Better Investment Banking with Bryce. OR DID IT? This, however, is all I remember from the 90s. Except cats.
	♥ 12:28pm Krys O.: We had Ukrainian friends of the family because Slavs are tight like that. In Polish, kraj (cry) is country and Ukrainians were 'ooh-cry-eenski'.
	♥ 12:29pm Krys O.: Oh, and family gatherings, music was played and the Ukrainian gent, Pan Mike, played awesome guitar and sang. In retrospect, the tunings were quite Eastern.
	♥ 12:30pm Krys O.: @Handy: Thanks for the Slavic shout out.
	♥ 12:30pm Handy Haversack: Krys O., what do the other parts of the word mean? Also, hi, Krys O.!
	♥ 12:31pm paddy in matawan: enjoying the technical music discussion...
	♥ 12:33pm YETI BOB: @Krys O: Word. My grandparents were Slovak, but all of my grandmother's friends were these old Polish ladies. (They did not play guitars. They spent most of their time in their gardens & kitchens, as I recall)
	♥ 12:34pm Hubig Pie: My karma keeps getting interrupted by rolling drop-outs
	♥ 12:34pm zopa: Hooray! It's classical Friday! Hi Bryce.
	♥ 12:35pm Krys O.: @Handy: Generally they mean 'someone from.' You'd call an American, 'Amerykański.' The accent on the n is almost like a tilde in Spanish with a nya sound.
	♥ 12:37pm Krys O.: Hey @Yeti Bob! My mom was an expert gardener and cook too. My dad played harmonica, zither, spoons,and he sang. My cousin, Regina played the accordion. Pan Mike was on guitar. Good times.
	♥ 12:38pm Handy Haversack: I'm a second-generation Russian immigrant on my dad's side, spent my formative years in a Ukrainian bar in the East Village, and have lived in a Polish neighborhood for more than twenty years. But because I suck I have learned how to say only "hello," "thanks," and "will you please turn the lights back on?" And the swears.
	♥ 12:39pm YETI BOB: @paddy: Another interesting fact is that traditionally, ragas are associated with certain times of day. It's very hard to follow this as a DJ though, and even at Indian classical music concerts it's very common to hear morning and afternoon ragas in the evening. The only time I've been able to hear ragas at the right time of day (other than listening at home) is the Ragamala, which is a 24-hour marathon Indian music festival. (Another one of those things that I find so life-affirming and sustaining, and which probably won't happen this year, sigh). At the Ragamala you can hear 3AM ragas at 3AM (while lying on the floor, hope you brought a pillow). It's the greatest thing, even if you fall asleep.
	12:44pm adrian elaine: Love these guys' records - so nice to hear!
	♥ 12:47pm Jason from Houston: ꒰｡•‿•｡꒱
	12:49pm David in London: Evening Brycicles. How are you all?
	♥ 12:49pm paddy in matawan: wow so neat, YETI BOB! I need to make it to the Ragga Massive
	12:50pm David in London: Handy, Yeti Bob, ami ad, Krys.
	♥ 12:50pm Handy Haversack: David, how goes?
	12:51pm ami ad: Hey David in London,good day sir.
	♥ 12:52pm Krys O.: Ragamala sounds wonderful.
	♥ 12:53pm YETI BOB: @Krys, HH: I have lived for close to 2 decades in or near the Chicago neighborhood known as "Ukrainian Village". And also "Polish Triangle". There's a bunch of Ukrainian delis & stores and a Ukrainian Art Museum. Bars with signs that say "Zimne Piwo". Seeing old ladies walking around who remind me of my grandmother. I love it here. (I know there are similar neighborhoods in the boroughs of NYC). @David: Hello good sir! @Bryce the music is fantastic today! @Krys O: Last year I met some folks who flew from London to Chicago just to attend it.
	♥ 12:56pm Handy Haversack: Bryce, can you make the hummingbird come back? I went inside and got the camera.
	♥ 12:58pm YETI BOB: @Paddy: I have yet to see Brooklyn Raga Massive live - would love to. Last year they made an album with Adam Rudolph's "Go: Organic Orchestra" (I'm a huge fan of Adam Rudolph), called "Ragamala: A Garland of Ragas.". It's unique and wonderful (I'd call it a "gem" but it's too sprawling) and it's on Bandcamp goorganicorchestra.bandcamp.com...
	♥ 1:00pm Bryce: @hh – i'm TRYING! @yeti – bob yeah, i always just kind of ignore that aspect of it. otherwise i'd be limited to just a slice of the music! i've read that it's unhealthy to listen to ragas at the wrong time! oopsie
	1:01pm David in London: Yeti Bob, great steer there, thanks. Just purchased.
	♥ 1:03pm YETI BOB: @Paddy: Also I am so far from an expert on raga, but it fascinates me, and there's so much information available on Wikipedia and other places. For example this one - Raga Jounpuri - uses a scale structure like C D F G A♭ B♭ C. No 3 at all! It's supposed to convey "certain glorious grandeur or awe". @Bryce: I think everyone who plays ICM on the radio or schedules concerts, does the same thing, with very few exceptions. I hope the health consequences are not too serious!
	♥ 1:08pm paddy in matawan: imagine if there was a genre, "Conveys Certain Glorious Grandeur or Awe." Would be a sad transition to the Blues!
	♥ 1:08pm Handy Haversack: Wishlisted for 10/2, YB. Thanks!
	1:11pm karen eliot: hello! enjoying the ragas.
	♥ 1:12pm steveo: blue elub eulb uble graas sraag garsa ragas
	1:13pm Earth Walker: Shiva Shambo
	♥ 1:15pm Jason from Houston: ꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖♡ SANDWICH MUSIC ♡˖꒰ᵕ༚ᵕ⑅꒱
	♥ 1:17pm YETI BOB: @Bryce: I'm researching the "time of day" thing a bit more (I've been interested in this topic for a while, having done some radio shifts myself) - apparently this rule is not as old as the ragas themselves, it's not found in older musical texts, and may have been sort of made-up to help distingush Hindustani (Northern) from Carnatic (Southern) traditions - it's apparently only a rule in Hindustani music (?) And it's not always easy to distinguish Carnatic from Hindustani, even for seasoned listeners. It was first elaborated by Vishnu Narayan Bhatkhande at the first All-India Music Conference in Baroda in 1916, according to this very interesting (but long) article: scroll.in...
	1:19pm Earth Walker: Indian notes Sa re ga ma pa dha na sa
	♥ 1:23pm Handy Haversack: It's starting to work, Bryce! Some sort of adorable warbler or fly catcher was just here hopping around. To the field guide!
	♥ 1:24pm bit rot: Chalk up, "significant increase in the frequency of Bryce's raga shows", as one of the few upshots to the pandemic shutdown.
	♥ 1:27pm YETI BOB: I also found this table of "Rāgas by performance time": en.wikipedia.org... ... it says that Janasammohini is an "anytime" raga so we're OK for now :) I've got a work phone call coming up so I have to hop off. Hope it doesn't go too long and I make it back before the end of this fabulous show!
	1:28pm Chris from DC: Really liking this Sharma & Sharma.
	1:29pm adrian elaine: Same! Can't get enough santoor!
	♥ 1:31pm Bryce: well, you're in luck! cuz it ain't over any time soon....
	1:34pm adrian elaine: YEEEEESSSSSSSSS
	♥ 1:35pm Bryce: @yeti bob – great article, thanks! now i don't feel so bad for my presumptuous & flippant heterodoxy, hahaaa @bit rot – "what am i going to do with all this alone time and bits per second?....." @hh – i've spent some time with those audubon books!
	1:37pm The Butterman: Rock and roll!
	1:40pm David in London: The Chevalier Audubon 1840? The full set of course...
	♥ 1:43pm Bryce: i blew my lot on the ben hur 1860....
	♥ 1:44pm Handy Haversack: I'm using the Golden Field Guide -- from 1966! You can pretty much just shift everything's range 100 miles north.
	1:58pm David in London: Gotta duck out now, as it’s Tour de France time. Will catch the rest on the archive - it’s been an awesome show today Bryce. See you groovers tomorrow.
	♥ 1:59pm Bryce: have a nice week!
	♥ 1:59pm Handy Haversack: Later on, David!
	♥ 2:07pm PaulRobeson1920: Wonderful music on WFMU! Sounding clear in Ridgewood, Queens
	2:08pm ami ad: Wild
	♥ 2:08pm YETI BOB: hey Butterman, bnowb was looking for you earlier, did you manage to get in touch?
	2:12pm SledDawg: D major dominant 7/9 - sweet...
	♥ 2:13pm Mick: This is some stellar santoor. Fab show Bryce - helping me keep it together today
	2:17pm The Butterman: Yup. Jest send his some emails! Thanks yeti
	♥ 2:17pm iiibeat: Hey . . Uhh . . Nice selection here . .
	♥ 2:19pm Michael 98145: Yes
	♥ 2:19pm zopa: Bryce, have you ever done a show with just a single entry in the playlist?
	♥ 2:20pm coelacanth∅: hi Bryce and all
	2:21pm The Butterman: Whoa, forgive my poor typos! Been staring into a fuckin computer all day and dreading school starting on Monday and having to teach big online art class to a widely ranging student body. Ugggggggg
	♥ 2:21pm Handy Haversack: Play it again! coela missed most of it! Hey, coela.
	♥ 2:22pm dougseidel: shivkumar sharma track: that's what you call a rock and roll ending
	♥ 2:22pm YETI BOB: @SledDawg: I love the dom 9 chord! Especially in just intonation, where you can tune it 4:5:6:7:9. It's almost magical how that works out. And I love the sound of that septimal ('subminor') 7.
	♥ 2:24pm Michael 98145: Any teacher has my utmost respect.
	♥ 2:27pm Bryce: hi, cœl! @zopa – came close once! wfmu.org...
	♥ 2:27pm paddy in matawan: night time raga?
	2:28pm DannyBX: Pardon my ignorance. I was listening to your show at about 12:45 and the music was phenomenal. The singing is hard to describe! Can you please tell me the artist? Thank you!
	♥ 2:31pm bit rot: @Bryce: that show prompted me to buy the Blue Notes Ogun Collection box set.
	♥ 2:31pm YETI BOB: DannyBX: Can you see the playlist? I think that at 12:45 it would have been the Niyaz Ahmed Khan & Fayyaz Ahmed Khan track - with incredible vocals and poor sound quality - is that what you heard? The next track started at 12:49 so it might have been that one
	♥ 2:33pm YETI BOB: (assuming you mean Eastern time)
	2:33pm DannyBX: yes that was it-I thought my radio signal was dying. Thank you so much! Love this show!
	2:34pm DannyBX: was that from a youtube recording?
	♥ 2:37pm YETI BOB: Look for the channel "Rare Indian Classical Music Programs" on YouTube ... you might find it there.
	♥ 2:37pm p/b: That was nuts. Loved it.
	♥ 2:37pm Krys O.: Jumping off, leaving work early. Thank you so much, Bryce and everyone! Cheers!
	♥ 2:38pm YETI BOB: Do widzenia!
	♥ 2:39pm Bryce: bye, krys!
	♥ 2:40pm Bryce: @dannyBX – apparently it is on youtube! and now i realize that it was, in fact from a record. i was just the victim of stripped metadata? thanks! youtu.be...
	♥ 2:41pm Bryce: @bitrot – oh that's so nice! i sure do love them and that whole s. african / british axis of musicians.
	♥ 2:43pm coelacanth∅: hey Handy! Thanks for having my back!
	2:43pm WM: I just realized that I heard Shivkumar Shaarmar live in 1974 when he played as the opening act for Oregon at Town Hall in NYC, I had never heard of him before, but I was hypnotized by the beautiful sound of his santoor which stuck with me right up until today. The audience gave him a big round of applause. I didn't remember his name until just now when I did a Google search and found an NYT review of the concert. Thanks for bringing back a great memory, Bryce.
	♥ 2:45pm bit rot: @Bryce: when I was ordering it, I neglected to tell the good people at Cadillac Records that Bryce sent me!
	♥ 2:47pm Jason from Houston: ᐝ.∗̥✩⁺˚⑅꒰｡•‿•｡꒱ᐝ.∗̥✩⁺˚⑅
	♥ 2:47pm zopa: whoa! shift to stereo... messed with my head!
	♥ 2:49pm WillCrete: Thanks for the music the afternoon Bryce. Really digging the clarity and transparency of expression in Khan's style in that alap. Glad that I get to tune in on Friday afternoon's now this fall: one upshot of the hybrid teaching schedule in place now is that we are out of the classroom by Friday afternoon. Gonna have to go back to the archive to catch the first hour that I missed, especially for that Srinivas Mandolin selection
	♥ 2:52pm Michael 98145: Amazing musicians
	2:54pm ami ad: Thank you DJ,Crew. Wow.
	♥ 2:55pm chris: it is always so, so nice to have a raga Friday. thanks, Bryce! i have thoroughly enjoyed listening and desk drumming along with these fine selections. cheers!
	♥ 2:55pm Booz: Yowza. What a fine time I had today.
	♥ 2:55pm Michael 98145: wow
	2:55pm The Butterman: Fantastic afternoon Bryce.
	♥ 2:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Bryce. See you next time!
	♥ 2:56pm Handy Haversack: What a fantastic show -- thanks, Bryce! Thanks, Skeletons. Be well, all.
	2:56pm adrian elaine: thanks so much Bryce - I'm so glad I could make it for today's show!
	♥ 2:56pm PaulRobeson1920: Good Stuff
	♥ 2:56pm YETI BOB: in times like these a shruti box is a good thing to have
	♥ 2:57pm PaulRobeson1920: Now thats funny
	2:57pm DannyBX: thanks BOB!
	♥ 2:59pm PaulRobeson1920: Thanks Bryce & Skeltons! Goood stuff! Peace and love Ya’ll!

	♥ 2:59pm Ike: Excellent insects.
	♥ 3:00pm Jason from Houston: Thank you!
	♥ 3:00pm Michael 98145: I still think, except for the vagaries of history, we would all be reading Sanskrit
	♥ 3:00pm Jason from Houston: ꒰⁎❛⃘ੌ ᵕ ❛⃘⁎꒱
	♥ 3:00pm Bryce: thanks, e'ryone!! hope your weekends are lovely!
	3:01pm Jesse Kaminsky: thanks Bryce!

I never miscue a record. I am punctual, well-prepared, and dislike clutter. Outgoing and helpful, I'm always appropriately dressed. I do not behave erratically and have excellent penmanship. My CD's never skip, and I am in good health. I like all the notes, in any order.

	♥ 1:08pm paddy in matawan: imagine if there was a genre, "Conveys Certain Glorious Grandeur or Awe." Would be a sad transition to the Blues!
	♥ 1:08pm Handy Haversack: Wishlisted for 10/2, YB. Thanks!
	1:11pm karen eliot: hello! enjoying the ragas.
	♥ 1:12pm steveo: blue elub eulb uble graas sraag garsa ragas
	1:13pm Earth Walker: Shiva Shambo
	♥ 1:15pm Jason from Houston: ꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖♡ SANDWICH MUSIC ♡˖꒰ᵕ༚ᵕ⑅꒱
	♥ 1:17pm YETI BOB: @Bryce: I'm researching the "time of day" thing a bit more (I've been interested in this topic for a while, having done some radio shifts myself) - apparently this rule is not as old as the ragas themselves, it's not found in older musical texts, and may have been sort of made-up to help distingush Hindustani (Northern) from Carnatic (Southern) traditions - it's apparently only a rule in Hindustani music (?) And it's not always easy to distinguish Carnatic from Hindustani, even for seasoned listeners. It was first elaborated by Vishnu Narayan Bhatkhande at the first All-India Music Conference in Baroda in 1916, according to this very interesting (but long) article: scroll.in...
	1:19pm Earth Walker: Indian notes Sa re ga ma pa dha na sa
	♥ 1:23pm Handy Haversack: It's starting to work, Bryce! Some sort of adorable warbler or fly catcher was just here hopping around. To the field guide!
	♥ 1:24pm bit rot: Chalk up, "significant increase in the frequency of Bryce's raga shows", as one of the few upshots to the pandemic shutdown.
	♥ 1:27pm YETI BOB: I also found this table of "Rāgas by performance time": en.wikipedia.org... ... it says that Janasammohini is an "anytime" raga so we're OK for now :) I've got a work phone call coming up so I have to hop off. Hope it doesn't go too long and I make it back before the end of this fabulous show!
	1:28pm Chris from DC: Really liking this Sharma & Sharma.
	1:29pm adrian elaine: Same! Can't get enough santoor!
	♥ 1:31pm Bryce: well, you're in luck! cuz it ain't over any time soon....
	1:34pm adrian elaine: YEEEEESSSSSSSSS
	♥ 1:35pm Bryce: @yeti bob – great article, thanks! now i don't feel so bad for my presumptuous & flippant heterodoxy, hahaaa @bit rot – "what am i going to do with all this alone time and bits per second?....." @hh – i've spent some time with those audubon books!
	1:37pm The Butterman: Rock and roll!
	1:40pm David in London: The Chevalier Audubon 1840? The full set of course...
	♥ 1:43pm Bryce: i blew my lot on the ben hur 1860....
	♥ 1:44pm Handy Haversack: I'm using the Golden Field Guide -- from 1966! You can pretty much just shift everything's range 100 miles north.
	1:58pm David in London: Gotta duck out now, as it’s Tour de France time. Will catch the rest on the archive - it’s been an awesome show today Bryce. See you groovers tomorrow.
	♥ 1:59pm Bryce: have a nice week!
	♥ 1:59pm Handy Haversack: Later on, David!
	♥ 2:07pm PaulRobeson1920: Wonderful music on WFMU! Sounding clear in Ridgewood, Queens
	2:08pm ami ad: Wild
	♥ 2:08pm YETI BOB: hey Butterman, bnowb was looking for you earlier, did you manage to get in touch?
	2:12pm SledDawg: D major dominant 7/9 - sweet...
	♥ 2:13pm Mick: This is some stellar santoor. Fab show Bryce - helping me keep it together today
	2:17pm The Butterman: Yup. Jest send his some emails! Thanks yeti
	♥ 2:17pm iiibeat: Hey . . Uhh . . Nice selection here . .
	♥ 2:19pm Michael 98145: Yes
	♥ 2:19pm zopa: Bryce, have you ever done a show with just a single entry in the playlist?
	♥ 2:20pm coelacanth∅: hi Bryce and all
	2:21pm The Butterman: Whoa, forgive my poor typos! Been staring into a fuckin computer all day and dreading school starting on Monday and having to teach big online art class to a widely ranging student body. Ugggggggg
	♥ 2:21pm Handy Haversack: Play it again! coela missed most of it! Hey, coela.
	♥ 2:22pm dougseidel: shivkumar sharma track: that's what you call a rock and roll ending
	♥ 2:22pm YETI BOB: @SledDawg: I love the dom 9 chord! Especially in just intonation, where you can tune it 4:5:6:7:9. It's almost magical how that works out. And I love the sound of that septimal ('subminor') 7.
	♥ 2:24pm Michael 98145: Any teacher has my utmost respect.
	♥ 2:27pm Bryce: hi, cœl! @zopa – came close once! wfmu.org...
	♥ 2:27pm paddy in matawan: night time raga?
	2:28pm DannyBX: Pardon my ignorance. I was listening to your show at about 12:45 and the music was phenomenal. The singing is hard to describe! Can you please tell me the artist? Thank you!
	♥ 2:31pm bit rot: @Bryce: that show prompted me to buy the Blue Notes Ogun Collection box set.
	♥ 2:31pm YETI BOB: DannyBX: Can you see the playlist? I think that at 12:45 it would have been the Niyaz Ahmed Khan & Fayyaz Ahmed Khan track - with incredible vocals and poor sound quality - is that what you heard? The next track started at 12:49 so it might have been that one
	♥ 2:33pm YETI BOB: (assuming you mean Eastern time)
	2:33pm DannyBX: yes that was it-I thought my radio signal was dying. Thank you so much! Love this show!
	2:34pm DannyBX: was that from a youtube recording?
	♥ 2:37pm YETI BOB: Look for the channel "Rare Indian Classical Music Programs" on YouTube ... you might find it there.
	♥ 2:37pm p/b: That was nuts. Loved it.
	♥ 2:37pm Krys O.: Jumping off, leaving work early. Thank you so much, Bryce and everyone! Cheers!
	♥ 2:38pm YETI BOB: Do widzenia!
	♥ 2:39pm Bryce: bye, krys!
	♥ 2:40pm Bryce: @dannyBX – apparently it is on youtube! and now i realize that it was, in fact from a record. i was just the victim of stripped metadata? thanks! youtu.be...
	♥ 2:41pm Bryce: @bitrot – oh that's so nice! i sure do love them and that whole s. african / british axis of musicians.
	♥ 2:43pm coelacanth∅: hey Handy! Thanks for having my back!
	2:43pm WM: I just realized that I heard Shivkumar Shaarmar live in 1974 when he played as the opening act for Oregon at Town Hall in NYC, I had never heard of him before, but I was hypnotized by the beautiful sound of his santoor which stuck with me right up until today. The audience gave him a big round of applause. I didn't remember his name until just now when I did a Google search and found an NYT review of the concert. Thanks for bringing back a great memory, Bryce.
	♥ 2:45pm bit rot: @Bryce: when I was ordering it, I neglected to tell the good people at Cadillac Records that Bryce sent me!
	♥ 2:47pm Jason from Houston: ᐝ.∗̥✩⁺˚⑅꒰｡•‿•｡꒱ᐝ.∗̥✩⁺˚⑅
	♥ 2:47pm zopa: whoa! shift to stereo... messed with my head!
	♥ 2:49pm WillCrete: Thanks for the music the afternoon Bryce. Really digging the clarity and transparency of expression in Khan's style in that alap. Glad that I get to tune in on Friday afternoon's now this fall: one upshot of the hybrid teaching schedule in place now is that we are out of the classroom by Friday afternoon. Gonna have to go back to the archive to catch the first hour that I missed, especially for that Srinivas Mandolin selection
	♥ 2:52pm Michael 98145: Amazing musicians
	2:54pm ami ad: Thank you DJ,Crew. Wow.
	♥ 2:55pm chris: it is always so, so nice to have a raga Friday. thanks, Bryce! i have thoroughly enjoyed listening and desk drumming along with these fine selections. cheers!
