« Begilufin » Berlin Live: Places! (#2) #176b

Sixty minutes of geographically wandering music themed around PLACES. Yep, songs about here, there and everywhere-were-we-again? Music about places, music that takes you places: everyday places, weirdo places, dangerous places, silly places, serious places and even non-existent places. Music to make your toes tap and your head spin off its axis.

Get yer face over to our place!

As always, this is live, spontaneous and rather silly radio - we always throw in a couple of mistakes for your entertainment.

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.
