This Week on WXYC
Tonight on Monday's Inside Track, listen to and enjoy Zoo's Trilogi Peradaban (translation: Civilization Trilogy). This band's debut album is punk rock seasoned with traditional Indonesian music. From label Dual Plover: "With 22 tracks ranging from dissonant math-rock expelled in quick Melt Banana like successions to acoustic shamanistic vocal utterings produced with the Skeletal framed lineup of drums, bass and Jembe, all lined with the deft vocalisations of Rully Shabara Herman telling a story of the deterioration of cultural roots in modern civilization." Don't miss it! Monday, 9 pm.
Nancia O. hosts this week's Thursday Night Feature. Enjoy three hours of themed music! 9pm.
On Friday, the Inside Track continues its love letter to Indonesia with the airing of Koes Bersaudara 1967. This Sublime Frequencies release is a reissue of the band's two extremely hard to find releases from '67, The Guilties and Djadikan Aku Domba Mu. Western-style garage rock combines with dreamy psychedelia to make up an album listening experience that serious rock collectors have coveted for decades. Listen to it all in its entirety this Friday at 9pm.

This Week on WXYC
Nancy O. hosts three hours of themed music on this week's Thursday Night Feature. 9pm.
On Friday, hear Nice Face's album Immer Etwas, coming to you from Sacred Bones Records. It's fuzzy and drum-machine driven music. DJ Jonathan W. says, "Some high-energy leather punk to dance to on a Friday night." So start your evening early at 6 pm with the Inside Track, and please do dance.
Talkademia comes to you this week with some trepidation about changing its name to Smart Ass Radio. Journalism professor and community journalism enthusiast Jock Lauterer will talk about journalism as a form of service. Lauterer will tell you that, after graduating from UNC-Chapel Hill a hundred years ago, the young reporter made bold and started his own newspaper in Rutherford County, NC. Now he's involved in projects to teach photography to inner-city children and bring positive press to the previously publication-less Northeast Central Durham neighborhood. Catch the interview with Jacki H. at 5pm on Sunday.
