So, from July of 2001 until early 2006 I hosted a show called the Nexus on Radio Volta, your friendly neighborhood radical internet radio station.  The Nexus was the point through which all music must pass and the goal was to draw a line through as many different sounds as possible in a weekly 2 hour slot.

This show which aired on July 3, 2005 really captures that from the opening track about a young girl living near Osage during the MOVE disaster to Brazilian New Wave to Congolese likembes to house music, classic rock, hip-hop and lots more.

Neu-Matic happens every Sunday from 3-5 PM on G-town Radio.
