Best of a dozen kind of idea. 2012 was a great year for music not only because RadioActive started rebroadcasting and gave a home to middle aged Dj’s like the good Doctor, but also because of the music. Music has shattered, splintered into a thousand shards and many of them are exquisite, so it’s impossible to bring you it all. What I did for this show was pick a few of the great songs or sounds that flew in my ear this year and left a scratch on the cerebrum. They may not be from 2012 but they were new to my brain and soul when they hit.
So come on – so much time so little to do, no scratch that, reverse it as Mr. Wonka said, Let’s go.
