Tonight is my first show on WFMU, called “The Rampler with Frank Edward Nora”. It’s a fill-in show – but hopefully I will be back to do more!
The show is tonight (Fri., Feb. 20, 2009) from 11:00 PM to 2:00 AM (New Jersey time). If you are in the Northern NJ/NYC you can tune in to 91.1 FM. Or, listen live online at http://wfmu.org/.
Also, there will be an interactive playlist that is kind of like a chatroom, and I will be checking comments during the show. Just click on “See Playlist and Comments” from the WFMU homepage to get in, once the show has started.
(In case you missed it, this show will be archived and available to hear, both on the WFMU site and also on The Overnightscape Underground.)

Amazing. Absolutely amazing. This is one of the coolest things anyone has ever done. A video all about The Rampler by Andrea from Croatia. It makes me happy!!
…on the DOWNLOADS page…
You can download all 29 tracks of ONSUG Day 2 in one zip file… or get all 24 hours in a single MP3 file… get them both on the DOWNLOADS page!!
You may notice the “genre” tag in The Overnightscape Underground files is not “Podcast” – it’s “New Time Radio”. This project represents a lot of new ideas about Internet radio, and it is certainly distinctly different from podcasting in a number of ways.
The Overnightscape Underground is a “virtual broadcast” – a lot of audio you can download all at once, not via RSS but in one big ZIP file. Load it onto your computer or MP3, and explore the broadcast… it’s easy because the content is broken up into multiple tracks.
I’ll be elaborating more on these ideas, but I just wanted to let everyone know this is a new and different thing.
Go to the Downloads page to get the updated 24-hour, lo-fi mono MP3 file. In the lyrics tag you will find brief descriptions of all the tracks.
This file supercedes the preview version of the 24-hour file, and is the same except for a few tracks where the audio was enhanced, but not changed.
Here is a zip file containing all 75 tracks in Day 1, plus a text file with all the descriptions:
onsug_day_01_tracks_128k.zip
This file is kind of big – 1.26 GB
Once you download it, just unzip it and use it like any other album in MP3. Just this one has 75 tracks and is 24 hours long.
Let me know if this works for you – it’s the first time I’ve released a file so large.
