◊ Waking the Intonarumori

Waking the Intonarumori   is a weekly radio show featuring composed, improvised, and/or found avant musics. Something to amuse the aliens. Previously erring every Monday morning, 9:00-11:00 EST, on WCSB 89.3 FM in Cleveland... now available here on the web.


Latest News

WCSB 89.3 is owned by Cleveland State University. For 49 years, programming was locally produced by students and community members, with an eclectic mix of rock, folk, jazz, experimental, hispanic, ethnic programming, and so much more. Unfortunately, on Oct. 3 2025 CSU opted to turn over programming operations to IdeaStream, the regional NPR affiliate, and they are now playing commercial jazz 24/7.

WCSB is in the process of reforming as XCSB.org, an internet-only web station, which launched on March 1st! Congratulations to the dedicated crew making that happen! This show is available there, erring on Mondays at 9:00-11:00am and Thursdays at 10:00-12:00pm (EST), sometimes in shortened versions. But I feel very comfortable at my second home on hearthis.at, so it'll probably continue to be available at both sites, as well as here on fluxmonkey.com. Thanks for listening!


This week's show:

Mostly guitars, plus a veena piece in preparation for next week's St. Thyagaraja Festival at Cleveland State University.
