The Recluse 13, Part 1: The Shaggs- Philosophy Of The World

The Shaggs- Philosophy Of The World

I know what you are thinking, but I'm serious; The Shaggs were the greatest Dada power trio of all-time.

That they invented a genre of music so unclassifiable it still doesn't have a proper name is as good a definition of of the spell they cast w/ their music as any; they truly listened to the unique sounds in their heads.

What's Radio Enigma all about?

Tue, 09 May 2006 14:09:38 -0700

David-

We've been asked this many times in the 3 years we have been on the air; this is my take:

Radio Enigma has it's roots both in the classic AM stations of the 50's-60's where you would hear a wide variety of different genres of music (as well as shows and news), and the free-form FM stations of the early 70's.

We try to have a little bit of everything in our 24 hour broadcast day, playing Old Time Radio Shows next to a homegrown Death Metal show, from Johnny's Shellac Shac 78's to The Insane Music Program's over-the-top weirdness in music.
