Sonic Café, music there from The Hold Steady, from 2021’s Open Door Policy release. So hey, thanks for dropping by another out of this world episode from that little radio café way out here in the Pacific northwest. I’m your host Scott Clark and this is episode 324. This time the Sonic Café presents a music mix we’ve pulled together from the last 57 years. How about that? Anyway listen for The Breeders, Elvis Costello and the Attractions from 1979, Future Islands, Living Colour, even a tune from the Better Oblivion Community Center. Best name for a band ever. Right? Yeah. Also comedian Nate Bargatze is a married guy now and he stops by to let us know what marriage really feels like. Then just after the bottom of the hour, listen as the amazing Jack White names a big pile of Beatles tunes after hearing just one second from the beginning of each tune. See if you can beat Jack to the name. All that and more, straight ahead, as the Sonic Café learns what marriage really feels like. From 2006 this is Supersonic from Oasis, and we’re the Sonic Café.

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)
