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!
Electronic music Pioneer Klaus Schulze passed away this week. I dedicate this week’s show to him. He was an early member of the groups Tangerine Dream, the Cosmic Joker, and Ash Ra Tempel, in the beginnings of a career that grew to include more than 60 albums. Throughout the show I play mostly Klaus’s work but I sneak in tracks from Cluster and Can.

This week’s Twisted Groove I dedicate to my mother, Mary, who passed away last week. As a teenager I would drag my mom into my bedroom to listen to my most recent music infatuation. She would always listen intently and give her honest opinion on the music. One night I dragged her in to listen to a full record side of Dark Side of the Moon. She liked it! This set ends with a couple of tracks from Dark Side…
