Vinyl set recorded live from Backwards Compatible in Grand Rapids on Saturday, December 6th 2025
nonplussed radio is a grand rapids-based internet radio show born out of the early days of the covid-19 pandemic. each episode is 2 hours, giving me plenty of time to share a wide range of expansive and unique music from across the world. for my 1 hour set at backwards compatible, i wanted to highlight some of my favorite releases of 2025, as well as present an honest reflection of what the radio show is about. i chose lots of quiet music and played many short excerpts from much longer pieces. i also experimented a little more with playing multiple things together (Foresteppe + Eylül Deniz), which was a lot of fun! i'm happy with how this mix turned out, it's just as warm and cozy as i'd hoped. the Lawalree/Woldman mashup is by Jack Rollo. showcard image is Matsu ni yukidaruma (Snowman under a Pine) by Katei Hōjō, 18th century. https://www.mixcloud.com/nonplussedradio/

CrazyEvilAllTheTime made her debut last weekend B2B with Nic0. They played hits, deep cuts, and everything in between. Lots of different flavors to enjoy with this mix. Recorded live at Backwards Compatible on December 6th 2025.
This week's Spin Cycle comes at you from Nic0, part of our Grand Rapids Redux family. Carefully selected house and techno with an edge found only in the Midwest. Look out for his own show starting up on Redux soon!
This set marked the beginning of the Midwest Radio Exchange Program. Recorded live on November 15th, 2025 at Moondog Cafe in Detroit, streamed live on Blue Moon. I had a great time waking up the cafe, and putting people on to some new music unreleased by friends.
