In the immediate years following her husband's death, Alice Coltrane underwent a challenging personal journey, finally emerging from emotional turmoil when she was introduced to guru Swami Satchidananda in the early 1970s. By 1972 she had changed her name to Turiyasangitananda, and left her secular life behind, moving to California. In 1975, she opened the Vedantic Centre.This spiritual awakening would define much of the rest of her life, her music notwithstanding. This show explores Alice's later recordings, which are deeply influenced by Hinduism and Eastern spirituality, featuring bhajan chants, and new age influence.

Bonjay

Bonjay

Bonjay has been played on NTS shows including Hipsters Don't Dance, with How Come first played on 13 April 2018.

In cities and suburbs around the world, the next generation of young musicians are emerging. Inspired by the underground music of the last 30 years, they are unencumbered by the restrictions of style and attitude that traditionally divided genres. Cities that once tried to emulate New York or London are coming to the forefront, newly confident in their local blends. The youth are coming into their own, cheering the home team, celebrating wherever they can stay out late and telling their stories with cracked software and cheap guitars. To praise the metropolises of the world for their diversity seems quaint - it doesn't seem worthy of self-congratulation if it's all you've ever known.

Into this environment arrives Bonjay. Drawing their name from spice island slang for "Good God!", Bonjay were born in a basement at Ottawa's legendary Disorganised parties. What began as a simple crowd pleasing party lark has developed into a serious commitment to songwriting and production, including remixes for labels like Mad Decent, Ninjatune and Ghetto Arc (XL Recordings).

With Alanna on the mic and Pho on beats & effects, their live performance is a high-energy sound system of bass and soul. Dancehall innovation, indie sentiments, and R&B hooks - these are the sounds booming out from the jeeps, towers and headphones of young Toronto, and Bonjay makes them their own.
