  • General

    Social change ( make that CHANGE in general), sharing our space with those who value life and do not just hide from it in the hopes that ( insert your favorite hiding place here) is a safe haven. We live in a society that will allow you to never to do anything other than what's expected of you. Dont buy into that hype..do the things you dream about and you will see the difference instantly.Sometimes it's scary to think of yourself as powerful...but trust us you are! Highlighting amazing people and rare music. The atmosphere created by a fly party, a bad ass dj, a proper drinking companion, and a good time....some people think it is only about delivering a message. We agree to an extent, we add to that balance by making sure we have a good time.

About me:

Move on UP is a weekly talk/music show devoted to ideas meeting action. As the name suggests Move on Up strives to showcase upward movement within the Community,the Central Valley and the World at large.

Host and creator Devoya Mayo along side engineer Mykal Powell and sometime board op and friend Tudor Stanley have commandeered the airwaves at KFCF/ KPFA for over 5 years now, and in that time have interviewed folks involved in Art, Activism, Education, Health, International Affairs, Poetry, Digital Storytelling, Immigration ,Housing , Music, Politics, Youth Advocacy, Sports, Peak Oil, Peer Counciling, Community Organizing,Film, and a host of other issues as well.

Each show begins with Devoya reciting a poetic rendition of what Move on Up means for all those involved in its weekly production. Then the melodic sounds of the late great Curtis Mayfield performing the song of the same title (the inspiration for the show) chimes in, and its non-stop for the next hour.

The show's signature conversational tone and humor, along with a heavy selection of background beats help set the mood and pace of the weekly production. The authentic M.O.U sound is important as well and is created by featuring music which is then woven throughout the discussion by way of highlighting 1 LP or artist of the week. MOU RECENTLY RETIRED FROM RADIO. 5 YEARS AND WE'VE CALLED IT QUITS. FOR NOW THAT IS...STAY TUNED FOR UPDATES IN 2009!
