PRX: We’re Not Taking Sides on This One
Hi [firstname,fallback=friend of PRX],
Stephen Hawking and the WWE*. Now they have something in common! Hawking came out today and said God did not create the universe. For sure his book tour will now have all the decorum of a scream-and-spittle wrestling match.
PRX is glad to provide the audio fodder for all your debates about philosophy, religion and science. But please, don’t drag us down into the black hole!

“Your listeners will hear [Sergio Mendes'] story, his influences and some remixes of his classic hits. They’ll also come away with the sense that this is a musician who has effortlessly flowed with the times and trends, and placed his authentic voice in each.” -Music Curator David Srebnik, Virtuoso Voices
Manufacturing Melodies Zak Rosen | 00:06:22
“Frank Pahl makes hybrid instruments out of kids’ instruments. ‘Delightful’ is how I’d describe the sounds he creates and the piece itself. We hear the music and Pahl’s creative process, but also hear how his exposure to the auto industry in Detroit led to his unique job.” -News Curator Naomi Starobin, WSHU
