The Twisted Groove is a weekly radio show on KSFR fm 101.1 Santa Fe airing Saturday eves 10pm to midnight (MT). Spinifex plays a groove-based exploration of the past, present and future of Electronic, Indie, Rare Groove, Funk, Soul, Experimental, and Afro Funk propelling your music pleasures into futurity!

Tonight’s Twisted Groove we explore Kosmische Musik, a genre that emerged from Germany in the early 1970s. This movement bridged the gap between electronic experimentation, avant-garde rock, and proto-punk. These artists were technical pioneers who used analog synthesizers, tape manipulation, and motorik rhythms to redefine the boundaries of modern music. Sounds that went onto influenced modern electronic and alternative genres.

Expect a mix of immersive soundscapes and driving rhythms from the key innovators who shaped this underground scene. You will hear tracks from Neu!, Faust, Kraftwerk, Cluster, Tangerine Dream, Guru Guru, Popol Vuh, Can, Deuter and more
