New Music Machine10 Years at WRIR – Looking Back And Looking Forward

2005

2015

On January 1st 2005, I hosted a show at 1pm, four hours after the Britsh Breakfast began our first official broadcast day.  A large team of volunteers had worked through that December running test broadcasts.  We figured that WRIR would be a good thing for Richmond but I don't think anyone anticipated where it'd be in 2015.

I'm proud to be broadcasting on our 10th anniversary today so today is a look past and a look forward.  I'm starting with the first set of four songs that I started that day.  The rest of the first hour will be my favorite records from 2005.  Since this is the New Music Machine, I'll also be looking forward with an hour of 2015 releases including tracks by Dick Diver, Dan Deacon and Jessica Pratt.
