Accordion Noir radio playlist 2008-11-14: Mostly Pop Songs
From ten flippin’ years ago, here’s episode #102 of Accordion Noir Radio, where Bruce must be describing “pop songs” as a sound or genre rather than programming a playlist of songs people might recognize by acts they’d ever heard of. No doubt due to some sort of algorithmic glitch, this specific episode was clocked at its original online home as having been listened to some 27475 times (twenty-seven thousand times?! There must be some sort of mistake.) Any which way, you can give it one more spin through your home sound system streaming from the Internet Archive. Here’s its playlist:

Accordion Noir radio playlist 2008-11-02: Taste of Co-Op
Here we are with, well, it’s not a full episode but then again there are some double-length ones, so on average it might well be considered our hundredth recording. Let’s consider it episode 100. “Taste of Co-op” is an annual radio sampler where programs at our parent station CFRO get to broadcast mini-sets at a time other than their usual spot on the schedule so as to pitch what they’ve got on tap to potential new listeners. Here we were, sitting with Marc Lindy and setting forth our audio manifesto for a new accordion century. It was enjoyed some 2510 times at its old online host, and now you can hear it mirrored up at the Internet Archive! Here’s its playlist:
Accordion Noir: Playlist: Nov 2, 2008, Taste of Co-op, yakkin’ with Accordion Noir!
Just a little special we got to do where all the shows on the station come on and chat with Marc Lindy from the Gospel Train. We were preceded by The F Word, (“Feminist,” Sat 8-9 AM,) and followed by the Persian show Pazhvak (Mon 9-10 PM). We hope to have them on to talk about Iranian/Persian accordions, cool!

Accordion Noir radio playlist 2018-10-31: Frightening World
It’s hard to know which angle to take on Hallowe’en, so the picture isn’t always a great match for the recording… but it has an interesting story associated with it!
Last night was both Hallowe’en AND as a Wednesday, also an Accordion Noir radio broadcast night! We try to visit the theme every year but we aren’t always so lucky as to manage to land square on it! That may be the only thing lucky about last night’s program, concerning itself with the rapid deterioration of what seemed like a solid liberal order — something really frightening, as alluded to in Bruce’s title to the episode. It’s not all doom (it is, however, all gloom), and even when it is down it provides a valuable opportunity for weighty reflection on the state of the world. We’re not just emo here! You can listen to last night’s Hallowe’en episode online courtesy of the Internet Archive, and here is its playlist and a few additional notes Bruce provided:

Beyze Vintn: (eng.)
Daniel Kahn & The Painted BirdWailing, wailing, winds of evil
Weigh upon the land
Fell the trees and break the branches
By your raging hand.Roust the birds from quiet meadows
Let them seek to fly
If a wing is weak or broken,
Crush them as they try.Break the doors off all the hinges
Shatter every pane
If in darkness shines a flicker
Kill that fucking flame.Wailing, wailing winds of evil
While your time is nigh
Long will winter keep the light of
Summer from the sky.(From Reisen’s 1901 poem, “Tsum Vinter.”
Bundists (jewish socialists) and Warsaw ghetto fighters sang last line:
“Winter will not last much longer,
Summer is close by.”Mu Áhkku = My Grandma
by Mari BoineMu áhkku lei dego loddi

Grandma was like a bird

I long for grandma
Abandoned,

Words & Music by Dan EcclestoneWe break butterflies on the wheel
For fear they may return
Vengeful in colourWe break dreamers and schemers and seers
For fear they may return
As armies in numberWe break butterflies on the wheel
For fear they may inspire
And lost in the beating of wings – a life.Everybody says it’s the will, it’s the way
But how could we be so wrong?
Everybody says the die is cast.Words & Music by Dan Ecclestone

Accordion Noir radio playlist 2008-10-31: Hallowe’en special!
We were celebrating Hallowe’en with spooky accordion music on the radio ten years ago and by gum we’re still doing it today! (Literally… we have an episode airing later tonight at the regular time, 10-11 pm PST.) To see specifically just how we were rocking it back in 2008, here’s the relevant episode, number 99, from our archives. At its original online home it was enjoyed some 3311 times but who knows how many of those were ghosts? Going forward you can enjoy it into perpetuity at the Internet Archive, preserved against the ravages of time like a dessicated mummy or strangely-preserved bog monster. (Or, you know, like the hot new instrument of 1829 in the year 2018. ) Here’s its playlist!

Today from the archives we present a highly memorable archival episode from ten years ago, episode 98: our “Brazil / Finland friendship” episode — a double-length two-hour look at two countries with vibrant accordion cultures (one of which has a newly installed fascist government, our apologies!) We have since fell off the wagon of doing national features, as it’s tricky to maintain CanCon requirements doing that, but we ought to devise a way to resume the scheme. The high point came midway when it occurred to us that in this great big world of ours, it wasn’t impossible that Finnish/Brazilian fusion music, improbable as it seems on the surface, might exist somewhere. And of course, as it turns out, if something unlikely exists anywhere, it will probably have a New York City address. The mid-episode discovery of Kaiku (“echo” in Finnish), was a real high point from the MySpace zeitgeist, when it existed as a kind of global Yellow Pages for musicians. They released recordings in 2010 and 2011 and sadly since then the trail seems to have gone cold, but this episode will enshrine them at their peak forever! At its original online home it racked up some 3121 listens … you can try out the lively episode for yourself courtesy of the Internet Archive. Here’s its playlist!
