Terrance Coleman ~ U Never Know [Y2K, Weather Channel, Menu Screensaver Synthwave, Digital Jazz] ’99

Languid keys coast through a breezy atmosphere of easy going coolness
~
Low-pressure / high-latency digital chorus and string chords linger in the space between chilled electric keys, carefree piano meanderings, and spiraling metallic drum programs. On hold in a 24hr home shopping computer-heaven showroom:)

Kay Weaver – Could Life Be For Us?

Fantastic, moody and punky new-wave song poem written by Cecilia M. Hamme and sung by my favorite song poem legend Kay Weaver. Song poems were songs written the general public who paid a company (like Columbine here) to have session musicians and singers record them and then press them on vinyl. There's really nothing like them...and I love them deeply.

DREAMLAND ON THE DELAWARE: Jazz, poetry, and heady tones from Philadelphia

It’s the first week of the WFMU marathon, and I’m here to talk up WFMU—a true outpost, one of the last good things—and to promote my 2025 marathon premium DREAMLAND ON THE DELAWARE (“Jazz, poetry, and heady tones from Philadelphia.”).

https://pledge.wfmu.org/donate?program=UE&step=landing

Pledge $75 or more to WFMU to get this lovingly compiled set of music made exclusively for the Cool Blue Flame—a high mix of ‘60s-’80s jazz, spoken word obscurities, and local environmental sounds that evokes, for me, the blend of chaos, languor, fumes, and atmospheric beauty of Philly summers, when the city is at its haziest and dankest.

Cover art by the wonderful Flannery Cashill of New Flanland.

Only available during the WFMU marathon—all proceeds go to WFMU!

If you want DREAMLAND ON THE DELAWARE, please be sure to select it on the DJ Premiums page during checkout. Please leave a comment or message me if you have any questions!

Thank you!
