All University of Ambience students should be aware of Echoes, which is billed as "a daily two-hour music soundscape". Hosted by John Diliberto, the show is distributed by PRX and broadcast on 120 radio stations and online at www.echoes.org. For decades it has been one of the most consistent, supportive, and enthusiastic cheerleaders for ambient music and beyond, with reviews, commentary and live performances / interviews including this one from 2003. There is a small streaming sound glitch on one of the pieces which the University's archivist hopes will not impair your enjoyment too much. It was sometimes the way with RealAudio.
Apart from one piece which appears as "Untitled for Echoes" on the album "Passages: the Echoes Living Room Concerts Volume 10", this does not appear to be accessibly archived elsewhere, although another piece is a version of "Il Leopardo Delle Nevi" from Budd's album "La Bella Vista". As ever, the University has no wish to tread on anybody's toes, and will rapidly comply with any takedown request.
