The Twisted Groove is a weekly radio show on KSFR fm 101.1 Santa Fe airing Saturday eves 10pm to midnight (MT). Spinifex plays a groove-based exploration of the past, present and future of Electronic, Indie, Rare Groove, Funk, Soul, Experimental, and Afro Funk propelling your music pleasures into futurity!

This week’s Twisted Groove I play some random tracks released in 2020. For the most part I don’t do favorite lists so these are just tracks that were in my queue recently. I pepper that with some older gems. I finish off the show with some tracks from the recently departed Harold Budd.
