« Begilufin » Berlin Live: Heaven and Hell (#1) #250
TONITE on your RADIO! It’s the Begilufin Heaven & Hell Special!
Halloyouyeah!
Tonight your good cop/bad cop hists Ziv Lode and Dan Abbott Abbott embrace the ultimate in opposites, bringing you sixty minutes of music themed around HEAVEN & HELL, GOD & THE DEVIL and all that jazz. No sitting on the fence with this one, the Holy Elevator only goes up or down. Our Begilufin black box (BBB) is bursting with an international selection of Godly grooves and Devilish discs, so tune in tonight because your ears have a Date With Destiny.
As always, this is spontaneous and occasionally quite silly radio - we often throw in a couple of genuine mistakes for your entertainment.

Begilufin
Begilufin is an hour long radio show broadcast live twice a month from the heart Berlin on the station Pi Radio. On Begilufin we play a wild, confusing mess of international sounds, stretching from the birth of recorded music to something we heard two days ago. We do our best to ignore the normal, accentuate the weird, and ignore borders, boundaries and time-zones. Each show revolves around a central theme and then we surprise each other (and you, dear listener) with our selections live on air.
Since you ask, ‘Begilufin’ is a Hebrew word meaning intoxicated, inebriated, drunk, sozzled or smashed - a perfect description of the delirious off-centre mix of crazed music we like to spin on the show or indeed the effect it might have on your ears.
Begilufin was created by Ziv Lode in 2010. Ziv was joined by Dan Abbott a couples of years later after a chance meeting in a kindergarten playground revealed a mutual love of the music of Erkin ‘The Turkish Hendrix’ Koray.
