   World Beat - KMSU's Blurbs
About me:
I'm a world music afficionado and DJ/host-producer of "The World Beat" on KMSU FM since 1990. I post my World Beat playlists on the Web at www.mnsu.edu/kmsufm/wbpl/WB.html They link to musician websites and record labels from around the world. Recently I've been linking, from my playlists, to an increasing number of World Beat musicians sites on MySpace. It seemed like a good time to join the MySpace social network. I'm sending friend invitations to musicians and record labels that I've featured on "The World Beat." You can hear "The World Beat" in southern Minnesota on KMSU 89.7 fm between 7:00 - 9:00 PM CST(GMT -6hr) each Saturday night. Or online at KMSU.org. I host the show live on the first Saturday of each month.
Who I'd like to meet:
World Beat musicians from around the globe. From Scandinavia to South Africa and from New York to Nepal.

Hello Mark! We should get together at some stage... you certainly know Omnium's Drew Miller, so you know our American record company is in Minneapolis! We will most likely be in the US in the summer. Ciao!
