So you like old crazy music, eh? Well, if I’m going to live here in your brain, I must do some housework. There are cobwebs all over the place in here. They must go. Very dusty too. Maybe if you laugh hard enough, it will all blow away and people will think you’re crazy. Feel free to talk back to me. I must keep you guessing and off balance. Please watch where you’re going…

Your simmering pimply-faced blob of a host, Fatty Jubbo, presents a classy program of children's records, no-wave, noise, prog, 20th century classical avant-garde choral pieces, concrete sound poetry, weird foreign pop and audio debris. Crackpots, incompetents, geniuses... and they speak the gibberish too!

WFMU's underground hip-hop podcast. When it comes to hip-hop, radio either supports the major label funded sounds or the independently released up & comers. Where do unsigned acts go? Look no further; "Coffee 2 Go" is THEE spot to drop your most raw and grimy unmastered demos! The half-hour podcast was started by Noah, DJ BrownBum, and The Custodian Of Records in April of 2005. The show has also added co-host Daniel Joseph aka Espee from Jersey hip-hop crew, Bully Mouth and Jersey producer Deal The Villain. A new edition of Coffee 2 Go will be available for download or streaming every other week.

Hear tropical and topical chunes from the Duke of Iron, Lord Kitchener, Wilmoth Houdini, The Mighty Sparrow, Lords Invader and Nelson, Atilla the Hun, Terror, Executor, King Radio, and other colorfully named calypsonians of yore.
