« Begilufin » Berlin Live: Hospital & Health (#1) #232

TONITE on your RADIO! It’s the Begilufin HOSPITAL Special! Yes you heard it right, tonight your Hippocratic hosts Ziv Lode and Dan Abbott will be syringing your ears with 60 manic minutes of HOSPITAL themed sounds. If you’ve been feeling a little out-of-order recently, your problem could be well be “musical intolerance”, there’s a lot of it about at the moment. A trial hour with Begilufin is free and painless, and patients become quickly aware of precisely what kind of musical allergy they suffer from. We will be jabbing you with noisy needles: songs about doctors, nurses, psychiatric institutions and pills of many colours. Your neurosis diagnosis could be just around the corner, donate your brain tonight at BEGILUFIN HOSPITAL. On our “Island” section tonight, we pay humble tribute to late Mr. Quincy Jones, the man who saw it all, heard it all, played it all, and lived to tell the tale. As always, this is spontaneous and occasionally quite silly radio - we often throw in a couple of genuine mistakes for your entertainment. 1. Katie Lee With Bob Thompson And The Group - It Must Be Something Psychological 2. Spike Jones - Teenage Brain Surgeon 3. Serge Gainsbourg - Docteur Jekyll et monsieur Hyde 4. La Lupe - Fever 5. Danny Zeitlin - I'm Gonna Take You Away 6. Malox - Bi-Polar Moldavian 7. Nick Ashford - I Don't Need No Doctor 8. La Logia Sarabanda - Donde Esta El Doctor? 9. Quincy Jones - Rack ‘Em Up 10. Quincy Jones - The Lost Man 11. Zeki Muren - Gönlüm Yaralı 12. Lindy Michaels - Communicable Diseases 13. Woima Collective - Brain Clear Heart# 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. * *
