« Begilufin » Berlin Live: Bass (#1) #184
Tonight your down-to-earth hosts Ziv Lode and Dan Abbott dig deep and ‘fphwompf’ you round the ears with sixty minutes of music with BASS. Yes dear listeners, tonight the show will hit a new LOW as we explore deep frequencies of the international kind, generated by electric bass guitar, double bass, tuba bass, and probably even foghorns if we can fit one in the studio. ¡Whomp Boomp Bwomf!
In our new "island" section, we'll be investigating new sounds from Tel Aviv's mighty Boom Pam - the only known band capable of combining tubas and surfboards.

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.
