Show information:
INTERPHASE was an
Electronic Music / Electronica radio show that started in
1997 on the college radio station 89.3
WHSN (
Bangor, Maine) and ended in
2001 on the major radio station
The Bridge 107.7 (
Bar Harbor, Maine) before it was sold the same year. The show did not focus on any specific genre, every genre and subgenre was covered at some
point. There were over
3500 different tracks played in the 4 years the show ran.
Phase 2 was a brief title change after we had a brief few month hiatus, the show was still
Interphase, but for those who followed it, this was Phase 2 of the show as we approached show
100.
Interphase was "mixed" by myself
Forte (known throughout the majority of the show's lifespan as DJ Savage) but this was a radio show, so the only mixing equipment was 2
CD players, 1 turntable, and 1 mixing board with no pitch control. So the mixing had to be basically
Slam and
Blend only. Trying to beat match with no pitch control created some train wrecks, and my mixing was never that great, but when blending or slam mixing the show sounded decent.
Interphase may not have been perfect, or professional, but the show was pretty damn cool. It was unlike any other show on the radio in the USA during that time period because I was a student of Electronic Music and had started collecting the music since
1990 so I had a massive collection built for the radio that would only get bigger. Interphase debuted artists like
Daft Punk,
Stardust and
Basement Jaxx long before anyone else in the USA also. I made sure to get the tracks directly from the imported vinyl or CD's and not wait for the domestic releases. The show introduced Anjunabeats for the first time ever in the USA in
2000 also when they were complete unknowns. We also played a ton of artists and tracks that probably still to this day have never been played in the USA on any other radio station.
There were guest DJ's on the show also like DJ
Gray (
Jungle, Drum &
Bass) and DJ Skott (Eurodance, Trance) - both could mix like pro's - DJ Gray used 2 turntables, while DJ Skott used his
CDJ's. DJ Gray joined the show full time in 2000 and had a ton of memorable
Drum & Bass mixes. Most of the music played was my own but some advance music was sent to me directly from labels like Moonshine and Astralwerks among many others.
The show had some listeners, that was evident from the great response we got online, but ultimately Electronic Music was not popular in the USA back then so it was tough trying to promote my radio show during that time period. Still it was cool when we got requests over the net to peeps in different countries who were listening to the show each week via real audio or shoutcast stream.
The Bridge 107.7 FM had cool shows, and a playlist formatted to whatever they wanted to play, that included Electronic Music which caught my attention and helped me find a way to get Interphase on there every
Saturday night from 10pm-2am or later. That was unheard of from ANY major radio station in the USA, they played stuff like
Fluke and
The Crystal Method just as part of the every day playlist. They even used "
Trip Like I Do" by
TCM as their weather update music. It was sadly sold in February of 2001.
