Review of A Shortcut Through 2006
Shortcut is an entertaining year in review mash-up of news actualities, musical clips and sonic cultural artifacts. Because it?s a retrospective of the past year, it?s particularly timely for broadcast early in the New Year. As I write this in late January, the 2006 version may be a bit late for many stations but it?s worth seeking out other shortcuts from Peter Bochan in the year(s) to come.
