Doug Wendt's pioneering reggae commercial radio program MIDNIGHT DREAD returned with new, nightly midnight over-the-air and internet broadcasts on World One radio in May 2012. The ground-breaking reggae radio program is back with scarce and fresh selections, all based in the classic, progressive, roots rock reggae fashion that first made MIDNIGHT DREAD influential and popular. Doug's 21st century version of his show also includes several episodes of his GHOST TOWN SOUND Radio specials, an outgrowth of his new live band of the same name where the red, black, and white unite in a unique blend of Reggae, Dub Poetry, Native American and Western styles. GHOST TOWN SOUND Radio also airs often at noon in Wendt's BEST OF ALL WORLDS programs on the bay area's only full-time World Music station KECG, public radio in El Cerrito, California.
KECG's current Station Manager/Educator Corey Mason was inspired by Doug's long-running and highly successful Kennel Club World Beat VJ shows in San Francisco to create a full time world music radio station known as World One Radio. Mason's vision for the East Bay radio outlet only recently reached complete fruition. World One also carries Doug's NATIVE SON RISING, music by and for indigenous peoples, now in its 12th season, at 6am every day. KECG has made major improvements in its two towers' signals at 88.1FM in El Cerrito and 97.7FM in San Pablo in order to more fully cover the bay area's inner rim. It's also finally started streaming globally, online through the Listen Live button at worldoneradio.org or directly via Shoutcast.com by searching worldOneradio.
24/7/365, that's World One Radio featuring kultimultural musics with a message for all generations, curated thoughtfully by real deejays, acting locally, rippling globally. Perhaps the world's only true full time radio station to actually feature all the world's music united in word, sound, power, and place. Songs from GHOST TOWN SOUND can be heard through-out all programming.
Doug's every day of the year show times on World One:
Native Son Rising: 6-7am Pacific Time
Best of All Worlds: Noon-1:30pm Pacific Time
Midnight Dread: Midnight-1:30am Pacific Time
