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/

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.


Brumaire, in celebration of Halloween, breaks many show traditions, and opens up new doors. Here she has on her first ever two-time guest, friend of the show Joe on to discuss happenings in Ann Arbor. Sit back and enjoy this special halloween show.

Brumaire has on friend of the show Ashten, who is based out of the East Coast, to discuss various topics on organizing. Ashten organizes for a wide variety of causes, including disability and queer rights, and for Palestine and applies a wide range of theoretical bases into his practice.
