Revelationary New Music
The Media Archive of Other Minds

Dear RadiOM Listener,

Luc Ferrari, Lou Harrison, John Cage, Henry Cowell, Germaine Tailleferre, George Antheil, Henry Brant, Leroy Jenkins, Otto Luening, Ernst Bacon, Virgil Thomson, Benjamin Lees, Astor Piazzolla, Martin Bartlett, Percy Grainger, John Vincent, Aaron Copland, Vivian Fine, Jack Briece, Morton Feldman, Peggy Glanville-Hicks, Mauricio Kagel, György Ligeti, Conlon Nancarrow, Harry Partch, Roger Sessions, Nicolas Slonimsky, Andrew Imbrie, Frank Zappa, and Ivan Wyschnegradsky.

Wouldn't you love to have the chance to speak with some of these distinguished composers personally and probe their thoughts on music? Well, that chance has come and gone since none of these composers are living among us. But at radiOM.org, their voices live on in personal interviews you can hear at the touch of your keyboard. Here you can eavesdrop on unique conversations and concerts recorded between 1949 and 1995 at KPFA Radio in Berkeley.

However . . .  we still have hundreds of programs yet to digitize and catalogue, and your support can help us get the job done. Furthermore, your gifts ensure that we can keep this service FREE by helping us bear the cost of transferring programs (from reel-to-reel tape, Betamax videotape, cassettes, and DATs) and storing, uploading and cataloguing them.

Our goal is to keep this service FREE TO ALL, and to do so we have relied on foundation and government sources to pay all costs. But the work is outpacing our funding, so now for the first time we ask for your individual understanding and support.

Sure, you can listen free, but this service does have costs we at Other Minds must pay.

Please contribute now by making your gift via credit card online at: radiom.org/contribute

Warm wishes for the holidays and the new year,
