I'm excited to announce and share with everyone this new mock-radio show, tentatively titled Booga Beat Radio. Basically every week I am going to pre-record and post a radio show-like type broadcast showcasing choice selections from my ever growing record collection. This radio show, for now, won't be live, however pre-recorded live out of my bedroom. The focus won't be the mix as I plan to do little as far as mixing. Instead I will be focusing more on the songs themselves, much like I do here on this blog. That's not to say, I won't do any mixing, it's just not the focus of this specific weekly show. Even though I will showcase a lot of the music I have shared on this blog, I'm going to also try to branch out a little bit and showcase my growing love for African, Latin, and funky jazz music. Basically anything that I feel like sharing.
Hopefully this radio show will continue to grow and turn into a live broadcast. Please Let me know what you think. I'm basically learning as I go.
With that being said, here is my first broadcast of Booga Beat Radio. I pretty much "winged" this first one. Look for each and every consecutive one to get more and more polished as I go. I hope you enjoy!
