   LuxuriaMusic Plays The Sounds of Silencers, Sexploitation, Surf, Spaghetti and Psychedelia throughout Oscar Week (Feb. 18-24)

    

   LOS ANGELES, CALIF.Internet radio station LuxuriaMusic (www.LuxuriaMusic.com) will salute the 79th Academy Awards with a programming event called "The Sounds of Silencers, Sexploitation, Surf, Spaghetti and Psychedelia," a solid week of soundtrack songs that leads up to the Feb. 25 Oscars ceremony. From Sunday, Feb. 18 to Saturday, Feb. 24, the LuxuriaMusic's live DJs will play soundtracks that complement their themed shows, while the station's autopilot will be programmed for seven days of songs from such cinematic scoremasters as Henry Mancini, Quincy Jones, Ennio Morricone, Lalo Schifrin, John Barry, Jerry Goldsmith, Michel LeGrand, Vic Mizzy, Stu Phillips, Nino Rota and Mark Mothersbaugh.

    

   While Oscar nominees and winners such as The Graduate, Midnight Cowboy, Shaft and Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory will be in the rotation, so will songs from hard-to-find cult films, such as surf classic The Fantastic Plastic Machine, spy spoof In Like Flint, fuzzfest MaryJane and sexadelic dance party Vampyros Lesbos. While LuxuriaMusic specializes in music created during the 1950s-1970s era, the soundtrack selections may span from pre-talkies to the tracks of today and classic TV.

    

   The goal is to take the"film" out of film music. "We're curating the best stuff and serving it to the audience," said Chuck Kelley, LuxuriaMusic program director. "You might not notice the background music in a 1960s James Bond film because it's a passive experience, but when you recontextualize it by removing the visuals, the listener's imagination takes over. Our goal with this theme week --and our overall programming-- is to help listeners daydream more effectively."

   The LuxuriaMusic radio format was developed by Chuck Kelley (music consultant on Pulp Fiction) and The Millionaire (Combustible Edison), and launched its first Internet radio broadcast on Feb. 14, 2000. The station ranked #73 in the November 2000 Arbitron ratings, and placed in the Top 30 among Internet-only stations. LuxuriaMusic.com ceased operations in May 2001 after Clear Channel Communications bought its parent company, Enigma Digital. The LuxuriaMusic radio stream was relaunched in March 2003, and live DJs were added in August of 2006. The station is now owned and operated by LuxuriaMusic, LLC with corporate headquarters in San Francisco and broadcast studio in Los Angeles.
