Carlos Gabriel Niño

Radio

Niño started his first radio show All At One Point at KPFK 90.7 FM, Los Angeles in October 1995 after volunteering at the station as a junior reporter and producer from Summer 1994. All At One Point was focused on "Hip-Hop, Soul, Jazz, and World Rhythms." While hosting the show on Wednesdays from 8:00pm – 10:00pm Pacific, Niño showcased his favorite contemporary artists and featured live in studio performances and interviews with a wide variety of legends, up and coming artists and bands, and DJs. DJ Organic, Hymnl and Jon Liu all co-hosted the show with him at different times from 1995 - 1998. In October 1999, after a 6 month hiatus, (following the birth of his son Azul,) he returned to KPFK with a new sound and vision: Spaceways Radio. On this program he explored Psychedelic, Electronic, Folk, New Age, and World Musics, and created specials dedicated to individual artists and bands, phases of the Zodiac, and years past. Spaceways Radio aired: Sundays 10:00pm - Midnight 1999 - 2003, Fridays 8:00pm – 10:00pm 2004 - 2009, and Sundays 10:00pm - Midnight 2010 - 2015. The last Spaceways Radio broadcast was Sunday, March 22, 2015.
