    NEWS
    We're loaded per usual with the good stuff.
    New music includes the new 12" from Philly artist Vikter Duplaix 
    entitled "Looking For Love." Taken from his debut long-player for 
    Hollywood Records called "International Affairs," we'll play one of the 
    remixes from none other than the Bugz In The Attic crew--one of their 
    best remixes this year, in my opinion.
    Landslide also drops a soulful new two-step number called "It's Not 
    Over," with vocals from Alison Crockett, on Hospital.
    Thanks to one of the my good sources, it's my pleasure to share with you 
    the Stereo Deluxe debut album from The Bobby Hughes Combination. "Nhu 
    Golden Era" is quite special, and quite a treat to listen to from 
    beginning to end.
    Omoa Music artist Ayro, whose "Drink/Let This" single has won praise and 
    acclaim with the most influential artists and DJs from around the world, 
    will have his debut full-length out on the label next year. If you 
    listen to tonight's show, though, we'll give you a taster with an 
    exclusive track from the album. We'll also have a profile and interview 
    with Ayro that will air in early January...details to come.
    There's more new goodness, current releases, and a surprise or two in 
    store so be sure to tune in on-air or online!
    SPECIAL LANDSLIDE MIX
    Tune on Friday November 15 during the bottom of the second hour of Urban 
    Landscapes (about 9:30pm) for a special mix set from Hospital Recording 
    artist Landslide. He's just released his newest single "It's Not Over" 
    that features the vocals of Brooklyn-based singer Alison Crockett. The 
    mix will feature a soulful, uptempo mix of some great music, so you 
    won't want to miss out.
    SPECIAL PROGRAMMING NOTES FOR THE REST OF NOVEMBER
    The next two Fridays after November 15 will deviate from our usual 
    routine. On November 22, we will feature a special auction edition of 
    Urban Landscapes. Thanks to some generous donors, we'll have some very 
    cool items to auction off to our local listeners. The following Friday, 
    November 29, will be Thanksgiving weekend. I will be out of town, so the 
    show will go dark.
    THREE-PART REWIND OF THE BEST MUSIC OF 2002
    Starting Friday December 6, Urban Landscapes will host the first of what 
    will be the last three shows of 2002.
    December 6 will spotlight my picks of the 30 Most Recommended Albums of 
    2002. This isn't going to be easy to do...2002 has been quite a fresh 
    musical year. But in the end, there can only be 30 standouts that we'll 
    have time to fit into a three-hour set; hence, the 30 Most Recommended 
    Albums of 2002.
    On Friday December 13, we'll have a rundown of the 30 Most Recommended 
    Singles that's best represented the year. Then on Friday December 20, 
    we'll sort out the Most Recommeneded Remix Albums & Compilations of the 
    year.
    It's crazy to do things this way, but the output of great music this 
    year has been abundant; so much so, that it would be crazy to let the 
    gems get away. I plan to have all of the shows, along with the 
    playlists, available listening and viewing, respectivley, online on the 
    Urban Landscapes web site.
    So there you have it...the rest of the programming schedule for 2002 at 
    a glance. More exciting information will be forthcoming before the year 
    is through, so watch this space.
