Third Time’s the Charm (We Hope…)

Some of our fans might recall the seemingly endless troubles we’ve had with live radio broadcasts in the past! Apparently our WFMU show is no exception. Hopefully you will finally get to hear it this weekend. Tune into wfmu.org if you’re not local to the NJ area.

FINALLY HEAR WAITIKI 7’s WFMU SHOW: This Sunday, October 11th, 5pm - 7pm (Eastern):

A Tropical Excursion With the Waitiki 7: Salvaged Shipwreck Edition
This is the radio show the gods don’t want you to hear! First, on Sept. 20, this program’s broadcast of two hours of exotica — including a live set from the Waitiki 7 — from a boat was waylaid when Poseidon forced our sturdy craft into New York’s version of the Bermuda Triangle, which swallowed up the broadcast signal like so many rummy seafarers. Then, just minutes before an attempted rebroadcast on Sept. 27, Thor tossed a celestial fistful of lightning bolts at the WFMU Building, knocking out the power for hours. So this time, to be on the safe side, a couple of the younger WFMU DJs have been flung into the mouth of a piping volcano — so hopefully, this third time will be the charm. Be a witness to the raising of this Titanic of a radio show from Davy Jones’s Locker!

  • About The WAITIKI 7

  • The WAITIKI 7 are helping to define a new movement in Exotica.

    Dedicated to the preservation and resurgence of Exotica music, and the related tiki culture, W7 is modeled after the classic groups of Martin Denny, Arthur Lyman, and Gene Rains. The WAITIKI 7 is the only modern group that performs exotica completely live and acoustic—just like in the 1950s.
