Sonic Café, wow, from 1987’s Electric album, that was the Cult, with Wildflower, so ahh how you doin’? I’m Scott Clark and this is episode 434. This time the Sonic Café presents another eclectic mix jam packed with great tunes pulled from the last 47 years. Listen for, the Chemicals Between Us, from Bush pulled from the Science of Things album, also Shake the Hippie from 39 Clocks, a 1980’s classic from Go West, the J. Geils Band from 1970, the Missionary Man from the Eurythmics, the great Robert Palmer, The Heavy, The Kinks and as many more. Also, comedian Dimitri Martin steps up to the mic, to give us his unique observations of our world, funny stuff. We’ve also got Key & Peele explaining the right and ahh wrong way to get a script for medical marijuana. Then finally, after all these years we discover that Star Trek’s chief engineer Scotty was actually not “giving the Enterprise all she’s got!” So crank your headphones up to eleven and join our little radio café way out here in the Pacific Northwest.

About the Producer:
Scott Clark has always had a lot of music in his life. Growing up outside of Chicago, he was mesmerized early on by the radio of the sixties and seventies and began collecting records at a very early age. From 45’s and LP’s to cassettes and CD’s and now digital… he really never stopped. Today everything in his library is digitized because he got sick of lugging all that stuff around.
The concept for the Sonic Café is to deliver the high production values and feel of the radio he grew up listening to. But unlike the tight, repetitious playlists of those commercial stations, feature a massive range of artists, genres and tunes. The whole idea is to package it in an eclectic, engaging, no repeat format that brings both new and old together in a unique, entertaining, and most importantly fun and fast paced way. There’s really nothing on the radio today, or in the past, that compares with it.
About the Sonic Café:
The show is set in an imaginary cafe overlooking the Pacific Ocean on the Central Oregon Coast. The cafe serves up eclectic, intelligent music, comedy and pop culture. The program originates on the Oregon coast in the Pacific Northwest, so the imagery is not a huge stretch.
Each program is 58:00 minutes in length leaving room for station ID, promos and PSAs. Each episode is .mp3 encoded at a constant rate of 256kbps and ready for broadcast.
An episode is released each week. All episodes are evergreen; never focusing on time of year, weather, month, holidays, events etc. so each show is timeless. All music is presented in a no repeat format. Once a song airs in an episode it never airs again. Episodes may be downloaded and grouped together to quickly create program blocks of two, three, four or more hours in length.
The Sonic Cafe has a Facebook page (facebook.com/SonicCafeRadio) where complete show notes and playlists are presented for each episode. Listeners can also reach the show producers via email (SonicCafeRadio@gmail.com)
