The Lexon Tykho Radio has been the subject of an unflagging crush since I first saw it a few years ago. When I was in Lyon, I meant to pick one up (as the company is headquartered there) but I forgot, and I almost added the radio to my Christmas list, but then I was like why bother? All I ever do is ecoute le live! to Underground FG, or listen to some strange gem that no one would ever play on commercial radio anyway. And for cultural commentary, podcasting offers so many more dazzling possibilities than what's currently available in the mainstream. Nonetheless, Tykho does have a certain beauty on its side, if not quite the future.
Windowlicker - from the French for window shopping: faire du lèche-vitrine - appears on Tuesday and Thursdays at 10am EST.
