About The Programs


       Sohrab's experience with Radio began back in the early 80's when he would appear as a guest host on
the program "Day Dreams" on KRCL, hosted by Mark C. Jackman. In 1992, after many years of searching
for the right opportunity to channel this music through, Sohrab Started his first show "Dream Time" on
Saturday Mornings playing mostly ambient music. The urge to expand his current program finally gave way
to his first prime time weekly produced show "Prelude to Peace".

       His ambition was to share the music as well as bring people together by familiarizing them with the
sounds of different cultures; from the Nomadic to New Age.  "Music that was non-threatening to the ear."
As years passed, vocal chants from various origins were gradually introduced, in addition to instrumental
sounds; creating a diverse, devotional and serene program inducing powerful imagery utilized by the listener.

      In 1998 Sohrab had the opportunity to expand his current program and incorporate "Nexus" a second
show on Sunday nights; delving into a much deeper and meditative journey into the world of consciousness through music. Music both for the spiritual tourist and those seeking the depths of eloquent sounds. Poetic
touches coming from Rumi, Kahlil Gibran and other sacred poetry in addition to writings that enhance the
mode of concentration, meditation and relaxation became an intricate part of the show.

     Each show happened to formulate its own atmoshpere and ambiance with diversity of expression through
the wide array of music with the natural settings of the day and the night.  For 3 years the productions went
on for both shows; Sunday nights wrapping up the week in a relaxing setting and Monday mornings, a gentle awakening of the mind and spirit.

     Finally after 9 years of production in March of 2002 "Prelude to Peace" programing had to give way,
creating time in Sohrab's life for other creative projects through "Soul cluster Music" and productions
leaving Nexus remaining as the only show on air combining the elements from both shows into one!

    And even though the name "Nexus" did reveal a certain connectivity with the audience, the representation
did not seem meek or sufficient to Sohrab; hence a desire to rename the program. Considering the ethnicities involved in the music and the cultures behind them; in October 2003  "ethnosphere" was so selected to
represent the full spectrum of the concept behind the show. One that of "Unity in Diversity. "
