« Begilufin » Berlin Live: Sleep & Dreams! (#2) #182
Begilufin presents Dreams & Sleep, Part 2!
At long last it’s Part TWO of the Begilufin SLEEP & DREAMS special! Your bedroom-eyed hosts Ziv Lode and Dan Abbott close tranquilise you and then wake you a slap for sixty minutes of songs about SLEEP and DREAMS. In the twilight world of dreams normality is suspended, the perfect excuse to make music that makes nonsense. Join us in The Land of Nod for a typically groovy international mix of musical dreams and nightmares. Begilufin, the only show that craves yawns from its listeners!

Begilufin
Begilufin is an hour long radio show broadcast live twice a month from the heart Berlin on the station Pi Radio. On Begilufin we play a wild, confusing mess of international sounds, stretching from the birth of recorded music to something we heard two days ago. We do our best to ignore the normal, accentuate the weird, and ignore borders, boundaries and time-zones. Each show revolves around a central theme and then we surprise each other (and you, dear listener) with our selections live on air.
Since you ask, ‘Begilufin’ is a Hebrew word meaning intoxicated, inebriated, drunk, sozzled or smashed - a perfect description of the delirious off-centre mix of crazed music we like to spin on the show or indeed the effect it might have on your ears.
Begilufin was created by Ziv Lode in 2010. Ziv was joined by Dan Abbott a couples of years later after a chance meeting in a kindergarten playground revealed a mutual love of the music of Erkin ‘The Turkish Hendrix’ Koray.
