« Begilufin » Berlin Live: Spare Parts 2025 (#2) #256
TONITE on your RADIO!
It’s the Begilufin January 1st SPARE PARTS show!
Yes! Your fireworks-frazzled hosts Ziv Lode and Dan Abbott stumble and crash into 2026 with another 60 minutes of (very) live radio. We’ll be unfurling Part 2 of our BEGILUFIN SPARE PARTS special, playing all the best cuts that we didn’t manage to play in our 2025 shows.
This will be our first ever January 1st broadcast and the radio station might still be in party mode, so brace yourself for a bit more ‘improvisation’ than usual. Who knows what might occur - certainly not us. A splendid menagerie of merry musical mutations is guaranteed for all!

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.
