What is Spiritplants Radio?
Spiritplants Radio is an open project led by a bunch of people from
different parts of the world, joined by the internet and their common
interest in ethnobotanicals. The radio doesn't have a particular concept
or defined genre but mainly plays psychedelic music. Among ambient,
trance, ethno, rock, dub and reggae tunes you can occasionally hear
lectures by people like Terence McKenna, Robert Anton Wilson, Alan
Watts and others. The radio is of course commercial free and you would
rarely hear the voice of a DJ but when you do you will surely be surprised.
