 Musical Fusion Radio, on Wednesday nights from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m., is providing campus with a radio show like no other. By playing new, up-coming music, Musical Fusion Radio is exposing Pacific to new bands and expanding the on campus music scene. Students Andrew Landgraf, bio-engineering major, Ian Keighley, broadcast communication major, and David Mayman, graphic design major, are the hosts of Musical Fusion Radio. It has featured live acoustic musicians on air, and will be interviewing band members as well. The show began with the Musical Fusion club, which, according to Mayman, was “started on campus to really create an integrated music scene on campus and have a central way of organizing and promoting bands on campus. Before we got here, there was no way to start a band with the school’s support. We also want to establish an organization where students who do play instruments can decide to get involved and find otherpeople with similar musical instruments to start bands.”
Musical Fusion Radio promotes the same ideals, explained Keighley: “We provide what many radio stations and shows do not: a very diverse and non-specific approach to programming. We play tons of music that is just getting noticed and that many students here don’t even know about yet.” Even though Musical Fusion Radio plays such a large role in exposing students to new music, they still have fun while on the air. Keighley explains, “David’s parents listen to every show we do. So, I often find myself talking about things that appeal to college students, and could be viewed as inappropriate or racy by someone’s parents. [I] often say things on-air that David has to apologize to his parents about. It happens nearly every show. I can only censor myself so much.” With racy comments and new music, Musical Fusion Radio encompasses a true on campus radio show, so give it a listen on Wednesday nights from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. on 89.7KPAC.
