DJ Feature: Marsbonfire

What shows do you host on KGNU and how long have you been with the station?

Any Colour You Like on Sleepless Nights

I may be the least tenured DJ at the station, my first show was on April 19th

Who is your favorite artist and/or album of all time?

Pink Floyd – Animals

Would love to hear a record top this in my lifetime, but I don’t see it happening. Been a Floyd (team Gilmour) head since I was a boy, hence the name of my old college radio show (Any Colour You Like)

What is your Zodiac sign and what (if anything) does it say about you?

Taurus

It says I just had my birthday 🙂

If you could have any musician’s record collection, whose would it be?

Ira Kaplan from Yo La Tengo. I envision he’s got a full warehouse somewhere in Hoboken for spillover of his vast collection. When they go heavy on covers for their live shows (or do a proper release of covers), I rarely know more than 25% of the songs, always fun to make a playlist. He was a cratedigging editor at Village Voice, I hope we can bring YLT in for Kabaret the next chance we get, would be a fascinating chat!

What song do you never get tired of playing on air?

Fontaines D.C. I Love You

What is something most people would be surprised to learn about you?

I used to be a scratch-ish golfer and my father was a golf teacher back home in South Georgia. Golf is in my blood as much as the Allman Brothers
