About the Show
Listen for Etheric Currents every Monday. Host Equinox Deschanel (aka Joe McMahon IRL) explores the RadioSpiral library, looking for both seldom-heard gems and audience favorites, mining the vast reaches of Creative Commons music, and may indulge in an occasional Equinoctal improvisation from time to time. With a relaxing combo of beats and ambience, we hope you’ll tune in, groove a bit, and relax.

Tonight will be quite special, featuring the early (90s – early 2000s) works of Altus – before even being known as Altus! I don’t have any history behind the tracks, but I can say for certain they were produced before his more famous drifty tracks were. The files are in an early format collectively known […] […]
split phase was a live electronic duo hailing from Upstate NY consisting of c. ‘transient’ martin and Mike McIntosh, recording some great live performances between 2010 and 2014. We’re featuring tracks from their 6-hour (!) “compendium” release. Laid back, funky, and propulsive, with plenty of jazzy bits mixed in, it’s a great release. We’ll sample […] […]
Tonight we’ve got two new releases from MigloJE and John Louis Kluck — high-energy for the first hour, and laid-back for the second. We’ll be at the RadioSpiral booth at SL20BÂ for Second Life folks, and at radiospiral.chat for out Discord folks. See you! […]
Tonight’s show will possibly start a little late; Equinox has a doctor’s appointment and may have to drive in rush-hour traffic to get back for the show, so he may be a bit late. We will, however, have a new artist premiere to make up for it. Circulus uses ambient and Berlin-School vibes to create a […] […]
It is indeed my birthday, and as part of my celebration, I’ll be playing a show of my own music tonight! Tune in for everything form ambient to funk as I spin tracks from many of my releases plus collaborations with others. See you tonight, 6-8 PM. We’ll be in the Studio at RadioSpiral, and […] […]
Equinox went virtual crate-diving this week, and found the Digital Diamonds netlabel: wildly sophisticated but very danceable music. There were will be beats, and the beats shall be full of techno, from a dozen or so artists. We’ll be back on RadioSpiral Island in Second Life; today’s show will be broadcast from Club Nebula, because […] […]
Hello! DJ Kyizl here! Equinox is out sick tonight (get better soon!); I will be filling in for him. This time, though, I’ve been given a little direction. Equinox suggested a new blade runner tribute album from Aural Films, so I will be leading with a livemix of that. If there’s any time left over, […] […]
Equinox is back from a trip to the Mojave Desert (though he did not “live in Mojave in a Winnebago”, as Zappa puts it), with chilled-out beats from a number of artists, some old, some new, including 4T Thieves, Casey Cat, lackluster, Brioskj, Stellaterra, and many more. You might feel like dancing, or you might […] […]
Sorry, everyone, but something’s come up last minute and I’ve got to cancel. We’ll save that glaicaera show for next week. […]
Tonight we’ll feature the music of Stevia Sphere, recording as glaciære. This will be a “poolside chillout” set, so we’ll meet at the Beach Shack in RadioSpiral in Second Life for the right ambiance. Come ready to relax! If you can’t make it to Second Life, come visit us in Discord at radiospiral.chat. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/RadioSpiral/25/231/22 […]
One of our featured artists from last week, Thaneco, has an alter ego: Thomas Ikon. Thomas Ikon is a time-trip bck to the 80’s and 90’s, with funky analog bass lines, oh-that-is-definitelynot-drum machines, and FM leads. Come join us for an hour of throwback! We’ll be in Second Life in Mermaid’s Cove – for technical […] […]
Tonight we’re playing the latest album from a new RadioSpiral artist, Subtle Shift: Farshadow. Laid-back beats and ambience combined; sink in and soak it up. The second half is tracks with titles, artists, or album names that reference the track titles from Farshadow, with music from EugeneKha, Alpha Wave Movement, Jack Hertz, and Kit Watkins. […] […]
This week’s tracks are inspired by a moment of synchronicity: a friend of Equinox had a dream about a box that made music from numbers stations, drones, and radio; at the same time Equinox had been assembling a performance in AUM that was eerily similar. Tonight we’ll hear that piece (maybe live, depending on Equinox’s […] […]
Equinox’s computer, or disk, or network, or something, is still not letting him broadcast, so Mr. Spiral is covering for him tonight. He’s not sure what he will be playing, but at least part of the show if not all of it will be live! Second Life location TBD, but radiospiral.chat for our Discord as […] […]
First: Juta Takahashi’s birthday was this weekend, so we’ll have a track from him, but we’re also going to have a bunch of new tracks from two new albums by 4T Thieves, a new album of remixes of tracks from Virtually J, and two releases from VKRS: Triple Alpha Process and BIM. We’ll be at Mermaid’s Cove at […] […]
On this episode, we’ll be hearing tracks from a compilation on the VKRS netlabel. I stumbled across this label while looking for more music from The Morandi Experiment; VKRS has a number of compilations available on archive.org, and I’ll be looking though them over the next few weeks for new music and artists we’ve not […] […]
