I've started a pretty cool hobby*: I'm making a series of music programmes for the local radio of Tampere University.
![]() My programme is titled Aamunkoiton porteilla ("At the Gates of Gawn") and it's broadcast every second Thursday at 7 p.m. (I'm sending this post at noon 12:54 local time, so it will be 5 p.m. Greenwich(?) time), repeated the following Tuesday at 9 a.m. Today, the flying-themed second part will feature e.g. ABBA ![]() By the way, also you can participate in the "competition" to recognize the opening tune (by a 70's prog band). The winner may choose a song to be played in some later part of the series. (Please use Private Message if you're very quick to name the song.) *) No payment involved; the idea for the programme was thrown by the radio when I was interviewed there for my Prog Finlandia book in November.

Nice, I'll try to catch it one of these Thursdays.

In the next programme (this Thursday 5 PM Greenwich time) I'll play only Finnish prog (more or less prog anyway) from the recent ten years, mostly around the year 2012 actually. For example Moonwagon, Discordia, Suomen Tulli, Pax Romana, Kuusumun Profeetta and Siinai. There are also several bands NOT featured in PA. This programme will be the last one this spring, my series will continue in the autumn. Edited by Matti - May 09 2017 at 09:22 |

My radio series has come to the sixth programme. Sorry for not informing you about the last two programmes; one of them circulated around the theme of time (Bowie, Nektar, Ambrosia, Happy the Man, Saga, Jukka Gustavson, etc.) and the other was entirely dedicated to the Canterbury prog.
This Thursday (12th October) at 5 PM Greenwich time you can listen to my programme from radio.uta.fi. Prog is not very strongly present this time, as I play songs full of melancholy and emotion. Artists include e.g. Kate Bush, Vangelis, Nits, Supertramp, Jane Siberry, Tears For Fears, Jon Anderson, Van der Graaf Generator and Camel. (A little feedback would be most welcome if you happen to listen to it! It's in Finnish, of course, but my speech parts are pretty short anyway.)

^ Sadly these programmes cannot be listened to afterwards. (There are some copyright reasons concerning the music.) The second broadcast is always on the next Tuesday morning at 7 AM Greenwich time, if you miss the Thursday's broadcasting.

One hour and a few minutes from now, there's the second broadcast of the 7th episode of my programme. It's all British folk-rock and folk-prog from the classic period. Tune into radio.uta.fi "On Air". Feedback would be nice if anyone happens to listen...

I think I just missed it. Wished I hadn't. Damn, next time. Do you have a thread here for it?) --

Hi Matti, if you want some of my music, just ask. Had a lot of prog rock radio play. Pretty much like Tangerine Dream.
