1405 | Ah, here we are!
with Christian Milling
As early as May 2020 we wanted to go "on air" with the Eifeler Radiotage - then Corona came and postponed our broadcasting request year after year. But now it's finally time to say "Oh, here we are!". Our prelude to 50 hours of handmade bunker radio brings pop music, but easy on the ears and nerves!
1605 | Original and fake
with Dagmar Fulle
"Twist And Shout" is by The Beatles, "Whole Lotta Love" by Led Zeppelin and "Bette Davis Eyes" by Kim Carnes? Yes, yes. As well. But they are not originals. We dig up the sometimes completely unknown and unsuccessful original versions of big hits and, looking at it the other way round, we clarify the question of what the Baskerville dog has to do with Ozzy Osbourne.
2000 | Night music
with Jürgen Kolb and Andreas Knedlik
No small, but big night music. Four hours of music only has an effect when the moon is in the night sky. Love songs, calm sounds, spherical sounds - and a bit of horror at the witching hour.

1010 | Hits that weren't / O(h)ne hit wonder
with Christian Milling
The melody is catchy, the song has hit potential. But it never really caught on with the audience or got lost in the lower places of the hit lists. Failed marketing or maybe too ahead of its time? Exactly: Hits that weren't.
1105 | The wonderful world of onomatopoeia
with Christian Milling
Onomatopoeia, i.e. the “reproduction of natural sounds or similar. through tonally similar linguistic sounds” also found its way into various pieces of music. 55 minutes of wonderful things in the field of tension between "Da Da Da", "Ratatata", "Ugatschakkauguugaugatschakka", "Ding-Dong", "Schla-Ba-Di-Bab-Di-Ba" and "Di-Au-Au-Ohhhhh- Yeaaaah".

Whether it's big TV shows like "Dalli-Dalli" and "Wetten Dass", crime series like "The Streets of San Francisco" and "Miami Vice" or even family series like "The Denver Clan" and "The Waltons": you all had extremely distinctive signature music. A few bars of this music are often enough to immediately trigger memories of the program in question. At the Eifeler Radiotage there is a re-listening with the most beautiful recognition tunes from the boob tube. Without the picture, but in full length.
