PGM 870 : "TRANSPARENT SPRING"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : freshly grown electronica for the season
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 3-27-09
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: The transition between winter and spring is never
predictable. After a time of darkness and confinement, we long
for light, air and freedom. We seek
change: space and openness,
movement and flow.

Filled with new purpose, we clean out old structures. In uncertain
times, we shine the light into dark places, and prepare for the
challenges ahead.
Transparency is the new watchword, the key
to trust.

On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a collection of freshly
grown and gracefully aged electronica for the season, on a
program called TRANSPARENT SPRING.

PGM 869 : "WINTER INTO SPRING"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : a trans-seasonal journey
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 3-20-09
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: The progression of the seasons is our context, a basic
fact of life. Yet there's hardly anything more powerful, pervasive
or profound.

From the frigid, binding grip of winter, we emerge in spring
into a world stirring with change and new life. It begins with
subtle sounds: the melting of ice, the rustle of the forest,
the singing of birds, the trickle of streams. Slowly, inexorably,
the natural world awakes; the light grows brighter,and we
begin to move.

On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a trans-seasonal
journey called WINTER INTO SPRING.

PGM 657R : "BETWEEN THE WORLDS"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : celebrating the timeless Celtic ballad
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 3-13-09
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: The buttery smooth sound of the Irish "low whistle."
When you consider we're coming up on the Spring Equinox, it's
easy to guess where we're headed this week. Yes, rain or shine,
war or peace, boom or bust, it's the season of rebirth and time
for our yearly celebration of the slow, deep side of Celtic music
— the timeless Celtic ballad. Quiet but oh-so-powerful, it captures
the reflective emotions: love, loss, sadness, nostalgia...and peace.

On this 25th Anniversary retrospective edition of Hearts of Space,
a classic journey in the Celtic soundscape, on a program called
BETWEEN THE WORLDS.

In the waning days of the 20th century, ancient music from
Ireland, Scotland, and Brittany leapt beyond its acoustic roots and
evolved a new electro/acoustic style, influenced by pop, ambient,
and country music and modern production values. But
whatever
the stylistic innovations, the heart and soul of Celtic music is
always melody.

PGM 868 : "INTO THE STORM"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : spacemusic for turbulent times
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 3-06-09
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: In good times, life moves swiftly, with little time for
reflection. Warnings of impending disaster may go unheeded —
until it's too late. Confusion and chaos rule the day.

In stormy times, the wise remain calm, even when the world
around them is in turmoil. Turbulence may destroy structures
that lack a firm foundation, but this is necessary to build
stronger ones. In nature
and society, excess must be corrected.
Destruction...is also a path to renewal.

On this transmission of Hearts of Space, an electro-ambient
journey for turbulent times called INTO THE STORM.
