Although it was only my 4th radio program and I sound like a total amateur, this is my personal Leonard Cohen tribute. I didn’t even have a jingle yet, but I already said ‘Hi friends’ just like him on stage. A lot of live songs and stories from my road adventures with the Unified Heart Touring Company in 2010…
Today we listen to the wind of our soul. We express our anger, sadness and confusion ahead of Israel’s second lockdown. We feel the music of the south, of the gut, of the heart. We think and discuss Jewish Rosh Hashana and the high holidays ahead during this pandemic… May we all resume our routine as fast as possible… We love routine…. Routine is good….
Wishing you all a happy & healthy New Year 5781. Shalom
Today a special tribute to the movie Almost Famous and its 20th anniversary (2000-2020) celebration. Along with my guest, friend and coworker Amit Mallel we talk about the meaning and relevance of the movie then and today. Including songs, fun facts and epic scene snippets from the film. We discuss our concerts together with anecdotes from artists, tours and the backstage. Penny Lane (Kate Hudson) stands for the ‘Groupie’ phenomenon or should I say ‘Bandaids’? From Lester Bangs (Philip Seymour Hoffman) we learn how to act around rockstars. Russell (Billy Crudup) from fictive band Stillwater teaches us the distinction between real and fake people around celebrities and their blown up egos and the risks that come along with fame and stardom. And William Miller (Patrick Fugit) shows us how to stay true, stay cool, be real and stick to what really matters in this industry: the music.
Sounds of September bring us birds, skies and lullabies… and of course some unforgettable anecdotes and memories from the backstage…and contact me for that chocolate cake recipe…

Hello friends, I’m back in the studio at IDC international radio and I missed you. Have you missed me? Or did you prefer my brother’s Love Below take over? How can one household bring about such different musical styles you think huh! Let’s focus on what unites us instead of what divides us. Nathan ended with Michael Jackson so let me start with the Jackson 5 as today’s show is all about hellos and goodbyes…

For the first time we broadcast on location: from my brother N8n’s 220Studios in Antwerp, Belgium. As the pandemic is ruining a lof of our planned travels, I take you to the music of a few countries around the world….
Today we are both traveling abroad and journeying within. Through anxiety, worries and uncertainty. Until the acceptance and the letting go of control. Through breathing and meditating we learn to accept what is and enjoy simply being. As everything in life, we learn that nothing is as black and white as our mind perceives it and we practice the balancing of dark and light grey areas… We end by discussing the concept of ‘home’….
