A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Good morning all! Want to mention how our son, raised on the constant soundtrack of WFMU, has throughout his life proudly sported his swag. Now as a young adult working as the projectionist at an independent film house, he gets lots of props for his WFMU wardrobe. And this year he is a first time pledger. So grateful. Going to add some more to our pledge for the love of Trouble.

I remember learning about FMU in Maine from a New Jersey transplant acquaintance raving about it on Facebook. But when I tuned in I realized I'd heard of it before as the station where Yo La Tengo plays, and an interview I'd listened to with Dean Wareham. Many roads lead to WFMU.

started as a Vin Scelsa fan in the '90s; knew just a little of his history w/FMU. wWhen I first started finding/downloading music online in 2001 some of the first things I grabbed were Jeff Buckley’s phone songs with Nick Hill. I Met Meredith Ochs in May of 2000 when her band and my friends’ band played an alt-country festival on the Jersey Shore in Long Branch.

Eventually discovered I could get WFMU via my Ithaca landlady’s Airport base station and an app on my iPod in 2006 or so; and that became my main FMU device. Over the next few years began listening every week to Laura Cantrell, Michael Shelley & Bob Brainen regularly, and later, Tom Scharpling’s Best Show.

A couple sentences I wrote in 2006 that still ring true today, except I no longer have a functioning iPod:

"Though I’m still striving to achieve the ideal freeform iPod — downloading everything from my brother’s mbira collection, to all those recent compilations of German and French new wave bands, to catalogs of early Russian electronic music — I realize that the shuffle function will never replace a DJ like Trouble. (Plus, my iPod doesn’t have her giggle; nor does it have tweety birds; nor does it have a 'Good Morning' for me first-thing on Thursdays.)"

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and

The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
