Iconic Detroit-born radio show Big Sonic Heaven is returning to the radio on Sunday, Nov. 16 for the first time in more than 20 years.<\/p>\n

The shoegaze, trip-hop, and atmospheric rock show created and hosted by Darren Revell is known for shaping Detroit’s alternative soundscape in the 1990s and early 2000s, according to a news release from WDET.<\/p>\n

The show started in Detroit in 1995 as a specialty radio show on Planet 96.3. It spent 8\u00bd years in Detroit then moved to Indie 103-1 Los Angeles. In 2013, Big Sonic Heaven became a podcast, blog and is currently a full-time internet radio station, according to it’s website bigsonicheaven.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“The station is dedicated to the ethereal and lush sounds of shoegaze, dream-pop and post-punk with a splash of trip-hop, darkwave, synth pop, britpop, etc,” according to bigsonicheaven.com. “New and classic artists are featured regularly.”<\/p>\n

The show will air on WDET from 9 p.m. to midnight on Sundays beginning Nov. 16, according to the news release from WDET.<\/p>\n

Each episode of Big Sonic Heaven will curate deep cuts from legends like Cocteau Twins and Slowdive alongside new artists inspired by their sound, according to WDET’s website<\/a>, where people can find the episodes after they air.<\/p>\n

Adding Big Sonic Heaven expands WDET’s jazz offerings and marks the end of The New Music Show<\/a>, according to the news release.<\/p>\n
