Synth Spotlight: A Chat with DJ faeriegothmother
WWOZ may be where jazz, blues and world-music-heads get their music fix, but WTUL based out of Tulane is where the prog and alternative cats get their tunes. Enter: DJ faeriegothmother who currently hosts bi-weekly Tuesday night showcases of alternative local music from 8-10 p.m. CST. And although their name is goth-centric, one never knows what might show up on the broadcast.
“My show sometimes takes a life of its own, and completely changes from what I envisioned going into recording it. Because most of this year our shows have been pre-recorded as access to the station is very limited, it’s really given me the chance to dive into a whole bunch of genres in a single show. One almost can’t expect anything in particular be’cause I’ll find a natural flow from Trip Hop legends Massive Attack, to country queen Loretta Lynn, and then around to something that’ll pull at your heartstrings like The Postal Service,” explains the DJ.
