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-zone.
Begilufin

Your thoroughly irresponsible dangerous hosts Ziv Lode and Dan Abbott trample through an arsenal of music playing tunes linked by the theme of WEAPONS. Tune in and hide in the bathroom while we press the red button and detonate an hour of life-threatening international tunes, songs about guns, bombs and the machinery of death. Our selection may possibly cause mild pain, but no listeners will be harmed during the making of this show. It’s only music, after all.

On our "island" spot this week, we investigate “L'Oiseau Magnifique” the debut LP of enigmatic Swiss minimalist vocal-folkal trio Alice, where three harmonising voices and a cheap keyboard set off on a gently absurd musical adventure. Another fine platter (on glow-in-the-dark vinyl) from the ever forward-marching label Les Disques Bongo Joe!

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

  1. Los Salvajes - Al Capone
  2. Dan Sartain - Gun Vs. Knife
  3. Ennio Morricone - Svegliati e Uccidi
  4. Mike Patton & Jean Claude Vannier - Browning
  5. Os Mutantes - El Justiciero
  6. Sault - Don't Shoot Gun Down
  7. Novi Singers - Torpedo
  8. Hila Ruach - Boom Boom
  9. Alice - Un Oiseau Magnifique
  10. Alice - Pense à Moi
  11. Tom Waits - Sweet Little Bullet from a Pretty Little Gun
  12. Bobby Bryant - Happiness is a Warm Gun
  13. Mr. Something Something - Di Bombs

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.
