Laid Back Stoner Funk

Playing my favorite collection of laid back funk and soul, mostly from the Daptone/Truth&Soul/Soulfire camp. Plus near the end of the show I pick it up and play some summertime classics, and even a couple rockabilly cuts.

Worldwide Funk, Soul & Psych

Special show focused on worldwide funk, soul and psych tracks. Pulled mostly from some of my favorite compilations, which you can pick up locally at Weirdo Records in Central Square (Cambridge, MA). Along with the compilations, I also played a bunch of tracks from my new favorite record, by a group from Zambia called THE WITCH! I also included a few of my favorite Bollywood tracks...

Beggin: The Donation Drive Show!

Please help support WMFO by going to donate some money online.

I have been on WMFO for over 10 years now, and recently we were able to upgrade much of the equipment at the station. The above picture of our old board was replaced by a slick brand new one. However, these upgrades cost money so please donate what you can. If you mention GALACTIC FRACTURES in your donation, it helps me keep bringing you the funk, soul, disco, blues and other genres every week.
