Folk magazine about the present and the past, from freak folk to minstrels. This time attention to brand new music from various directions: ambient, soul, hiphop, click ’n cut, classic and psychedelic. The new works are surprisingly complementing, something which is common to the frequently returning programme Start Menu. You will hear songs of the Norwegian ambient duo Pjusk, hiphop producer Mndsgn, Spring Offensive and Bernhard Eder. Besides that you can listen to an Italian psychedelic filmscore by The Braen’s Machine and the doomsoul of goth-gospel by Canadian singer-songwriter Cold Specks.
