I fucking love Apple Music, it’s one of the highlights of my week to see people have played my stuff around the world who just heard it and liked it. This week: @cjsw.bsky.social in Calgary and Altrisuoni in Naples. Thanks!

Monday will be a rare two-interview episode of The AM on @cjsw.bsky.social. Calgary filmmaker @elysebouvier.bsky.social will join to talk about her NFB debut, and two-time Oscar nominee Cordell Barker will talk AI, consciousness, and his latest short, both premiering at CIFF. Should be fun.

CJSW is hosting one of the first mayoral debates of this election campaign. Jyoti Gondek, Jeff Davison, Jeromy Farkas and Brian Thiessen are participating.

Jett was a co-moderator on this broadcast with CJSW’s Sheroog Kubur. Live now, available online if you missed it tonight.

Now Live!

New AM on @cjsw.bsky.social: On the mellow side, although there’s some psych-rockers at the end to help wake up. Take a wander through some folk and MPB, a little light kosmische, some Boards of Canada-style electronic haze, and other sounds to ease you into a sunny but oddly autumnal August Monday.

We’ve invited the leading candidates to join us for a conversation about the biggest issues facing Calgary. It’s your chance to hear directly from the people who want to lead our city. Tune in to 90.9 FM on Wednesday, August 27 at 7 p.m. for our mayoral debate!

A little more classic-heavy than your average episode, but this week’s AM on @cjsw.bsky.social has new sounds from its share of show favourites, too—including Postnamers, Dungen, and Sam Prekop. Hope you enjoy it, because I definitely did. Listen here: theam.ca/post/7922640...

This week's AM on @cjsw.bsky.social is ready for streaming. Aimed for eclecticism this week, with a throwback to Rose McDowall's underappreciated Sorrow project, plus post-rock, art-pop, shoegaze, Alanis Morissette getting weird, new age ambiance, and other treats for a gloomy Monday morning.

What a great show, thanks so much!

Great show in Calgary this evening! Thank you to Cindy McLeod, CJSW and Heritage Park for putting on a great event, and thank you to the fabulous crowd for showing up! @cjsw.bsky.social

NEW EPISODE: In @geoffdembicki.bsky.social 's book, The Petroleum Papers, he tells it like it is: climate inaction wasn't necessary and it wasn't inevitable. Nothing like a well financed disinfo campaign to get people voting against their own interests. Listen on any podcast app & @cjsw.bsky.social

I'm delighted that my work 'all that's left is dirt and sky' with Byrne:Kozar Duo was recently included on @cjsw.bsky.social's Ears Have Eyes program. It was broadcast throughout Canada in partnership with New Adventures in Sound Art and Golden Co-Op Radio.

This week's AM on @cjsw.bsky.social: Globally minded psychedelia, a throwback to Dorothy Ashby's groovy spirit quest, ambient folk, and CFMF-inspired selections all share space in this morning's mix. Grounding sounds to start your week right, courtesy of The AM and CJSW. Hope you enjoy it.

Heading down to Folk Fest? Find our tent on the grounds as we broadcast LIVE! You can catch Mountain Man, Road Pops, Speaking in Tongues, and Thee Acheulean Age at Prince's Island Park OR on our broadcast at 90.9fm. Some musicians may pop by as well, if we're lucky ;) @calgaryfolkfest.bsky.social

This week's AM on @cjsw.bsky.social looks back at the best of the first half of 2025, from neo-classical and jazz to psych-rock and dream-pop. A playlist of the nearly full list (130-ish albums) is in the thread below, condensed down to a more convenient 30 on air: cjsw.com/program/the-...

A run of tracks from our label closed out the programme yesterday, featuring artists based in BC, AB, SK, ON, and QC. Listen back from the station archives if you missed the live broadcast cjsw.com/program/nois... @jacobaudreytaves.bsky.social @michaeltrommer.bsky.social @darkwavevegan.bsky.social

This evening, Thursday July 3rd, it’s a Submission Special episode of Noise on CJSW 90.9 FM, hosted by Steve Russell. Tune in from 8:30-10pm local/mountain time to catch the show! cjsw.com/program/noise/ 📻⚡️

July is here, summer feels like it's just starting! We've got a busy month ahead. Not many live sessions this time around, but stay tuned for us broadcasting from the field at Folk Fest. Catch up on our charts and highlights!

Somehow, they let me on the public airwaves. SOMEHOW. I was on Calgary's @cjsw.bsky.social, having a great time with Benjamin Goodman on What’s Your Niche? talking graps! Check it out! cjsw.com/program/what... And on Apple Podcasts! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/w...

A (mostly) all-Canadian edition of the AM on @cjsw.bsky.social this week. One or two songs are a stretch, I’ll admit, but it’s not officially Canada Day yet, so maybe just let it slide. Streaming links: theam.ca/post/7878065...

First AM of the summer on @cjsw.bsky.social: One of the mellower openings in a while, but if you can get on the same wavelength, there’s some grounding ambient jazz and electronics to kick things off. Otherwise, skip ahead for library grooves, psych-rock spaciness and jangling pop of the last hours.

My alma mater has an S-tier radio station that was and continues to be massively important to the local music scene @cjsw.bsky.social cjsw.com

Here's this week's AM on @cjsw.bsky.social: A throwback to one of the all-time great psychedelic sci-fi scores with Alain Goraguer’s Fantastic Planet, plus a wide-ranging mix of hazy beats, neo-classical explorations, shoegaze blasts, and other arguably AM-appropriate sounds.
