Liz Warner is among a long lineage of Detroit radio hosts whose prolific perspectives have impacted music and culture globally. For three decades, various iterations of her radio show, "Alternate Take" has introduced, inspired and reminded scores of producers, DJs, music aficionados and novices alike with a wildly eclectic cross section of sounds and deep cuts.
Tune in as we take a deep dive as to why Detroit is so sonically distinct to our souls and ears. And explore Liz’s approach to curating her legendary show, which is unrestricted by the limitations of genre. In this era of significant technological change, we also hypothesize on what the future of radio might look like.
Be sure to check out Alternate Take on WDET 101.9 FM on Thursdays, 8-10pm ET. It’s also aired again on Saturdays 10-midnight ET and can be streamed live and on-demand at WDET.org.
