On Air Just screw once the tuning knob of a FM radio from side to side and take a sample of what's "on Air" during a sunday afternoon.
The idea that certain music is difficult to understand or the question if certain music can be considered music or not are basically wrong. It mainly depend on the habit and how often people get in thouch with unusual material and ideas. Many people at a certain point simply stop asking for something different to listen to. Many others simply don't have access to it. Public broadcasting has strong responsability and influence on the diffusion of culture. Nowadays in Italy most of public and private FM radios are totally booked by major companies that decide the playlist. That is obvously driven by commercial needs of music industry. Production needs masses to be convenient, while diversity (taste-diversity) can be economically speaking disadvantageous. OnAir log is a sample of the state of public radio broadcasting in a specific area. It would be interesting to receive different scans from different part of the world.
