Stephen started with Program 001, “First Flight” one January 1, 1983. I thought about that last word, “cherish”, and I think it is the correct word to express how I feel about the music I love. HOS has been one of the singularities in performing what I see as the mission of Public Radio in music: to motivate the listener to spend money to support the artists and composers whose work we cherish. Hearts of Space, Music From the Hearts of Space, HOS, whatever one calls it, is the creation of Stephen Hill. I think that it is time for a new look at Hearts of Space. But I welcome all opinions.Ī New Look at Music From the Hearts of Space So, what do you think? Did I jump off a bridge? Too early? I gave away thousands of dollars worth of physical media and equipment. Last and probably least used, but very useful in a pinch, is my Roku HD-XR Player for streaming movies (wirelessly) from Netflix. mp4 players: Classical music and Spoken Word, Jazz, Rock, and video.

I also took subscriptions at home and at work for streams in especially New Music at Live365 I use Winamp for streaming audio, with the stations listed, and also WPRB and WBGO.įinally, one of my favorite of all time music sources, Music from the Hearts of Space was kicked out at WNYC. I gravitated to three stations: KUSC, Los Angeles WCNY, Syracuse and WCPE, Winston Salem, NC. I used Public Radio Fan and Shoutcast to find new sources for music “on the radio”.

Since the advent of WQXR and the re-birth of WNYC’s 24/7 New Music stream as Q2 there have not been for me any real issues. This blog has always been issue oriented. I have not written here since March 2010.
