	♥ 8:59pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Ahoy!
	9:01pm Arvo: Good hello!
	9:01pm Charles: Hi!
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Krys O.: Howdy!
	9:02pm Arvo: I liked what I heard of your set Krys. O.!
	♥ 9:02pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Its the year of the Mutant Reformation
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm Kat in the chat: Spending the rest of the evening safer and sounder at home with 'FMU. Although I'm only about a mile from the "official" fireworks and probably a few feet from an unofficial display.
	9:03pm Arvo: Hi Kat!
	🎸 ♥ 9:04pm Krys O.: Thank you, Arvo. I'm surrounded by fireworks too. The cats are under the bed now.
	🎸 ♥ 9:04pm Kat in the chat: Hi Arvo! Looking forward to your selections!
	9:04pm ramencity: Hullo dere
	🎸 ♥ 9:05pm Austin Rich: Our city - due to the heat and the dryness - had a ban on fireworks this year. Hasn't stopped folks from lighting them off since Friday night anyway.
	🎸 ♥ 9:05pm Austin Rich: Nice to see you, ramencity kid! We just plugged your appearance next week!
	9:06pm Arvo: There are six wildfires in the cascades, all from fireworks this weekend, the paper said.
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Austin Rich: Kat in the chat: glad to have you in the chat! Always a pleasure.
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Kat in the chat: Actually pretty quiet on the street here so far. Folks might be at the official party, which I probably would have walked over to out of curiosity if there wasn't extra special radio tonight.
	🎸 ♥ 9:07pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Arvo @9:06 That's not good.
	♥ 9:07pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Arvo @9:06 That's precisely why they're using drone display this year
	9:07pm Arvo: Thanks Kat! Means a lot!
	🎸 ♥ 9:07pm Austin Rich: Yeah, our air quality has dropped this weekend. Not so good!
	9:08pm Mr. X: Amerikkkans and their explosives...
	🎸 ♥ 9:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:08 Mr. X! We have a couple shows coming up soon, too!
	9:08pm Arvo: We will be getting the smoke from Canada here out west soon, they say.
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Austin Rich: All the more reason to stay in and listen to radio.
	9:10pm ramencity: Oh man next year you should do a Canada Day special!
	♥ 9:10pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:09 And pet the cat
	9:10pm Arvo: They say the air is like a pack of cigarettes, but they didn't include nicotine, bruh.
	🎸 ♥ 9:10pm Austin Rich: (I'm guessing on the song timings here. Hopefully I'm close.)
	🎸 ♥ 9:10pm Kat in the chat: Our AQI has been all over the place. There were some bad spots last week but it's been alright last couple of days.
	9:10pm ramencity: Just got finished petting the neighbor cat Louise. (And, yes, she has a sister named Thelma..)
	🎸 ♥ 9:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @9:10 Good idea! We'll start planning it soon.
	🎸 ♥ 9:11pm Kat in the chat: ↳ ramencity @9:10 Excellent cat names
	🎸 ♥ 9:11pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @9:10 Nice! A neighbor cat: all the fun. None of the responsibility!
	♥ 9:11pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:11 Indeed those are great names
	9:11pm Arvo: I went to Canada with a lady once, and it happened to be their independence day. There was a garbage strike. Garbage everywhere. Baseball fields piled 20 feet high with garage. The pope was going to be in town for a parade, too. Picked the wrong weekend.
	🎸 ♥ 9:12pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "think im a man" by "Sharlyn Evertsz" I'm really enjoying this track! I'll have to check out more Sharlyn Evertsz.
	🎸 ♥ 9:12pm Kat in the chat: yeah I like this too
	🎸 ♥ 9:13pm Austin Rich: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:12 I try to get noisy like this... and it just comes out spacey. I'm not sure I have the noise in me.
	9:13pm Arvo: This is still Ilth Zongz my man! You will know Sharlyn when you hear her voice... She is a darling for sure.
	🎸 ♥ 9:13pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Austin Rich @9:13 I like spacy noise!
	🎸 ♥ 9:14pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @9:13 Whoops!
	9:14pm Arvo: Ilth is an excellent collage artist who also happens to do lots of tape loops and guitar work and things.
	🎸 ♥ 9:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @9:14 That was very cool. And so is this!
	9:15pm Mr. X: In space, no one can hear your noise art screams.
	9:15pm M. Pathetic: Top o' the mornin 2 u
	🎸 ♥ 9:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:15 This summer, I'm all about Dinosaur Rock.
	🎸 ♥ 9:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ M. Pathetic @9:15 Thanks for joining us!
	9:16pm ramencity: ↳ Mr. X @9:15 In space, no one can eat your ice cream
	9:17pm Arvo: I remember the wfmu premium "in myspace no one can hear you scream" back when myspace was still pre Rupert Murdoch.
	🎸 ♥ 9:17pm Krys O.: My four day weekend is over. Back to work tomorrow. G'night, all!
	9:17pm Mr. X: ↳ ramencity @9:16 That's why space is the place.
	9:17pm Arvo: ↳ Krys O. @9:17 Goodnight!
	🎸 ♥ 9:17pm Austin Rich: ↳ Krys O. @9:17 Thanks for all you do! Sleep well!
	♥ 9:18pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Three men in black said "don't report this"
	🎸 ♥ 9:18pm Kat in the chat: G'night Krys! Mine's over in a couple of hours, loud outside bangs permitting.
	9:21pm Arvo: I had an experience with Indrid Cold in 2017. I would love to read more books on Men In Black. I think John Keel is a bit of a liar, still, admittedly, but I have a funny prankish experience with that mythos.
	🎸 ♥ 9:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Presidential Timbre" by "Bret Hart" Don Campau is TIRELESS. He also does radio, and helped get my radio play aired on his station in his home town.
	9:23pm Mr. X: I certainly have nostalgic feelings about Cassette Culture.
	♥ 9:23pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Got a book on antigravity. I couldn't put it down.
	9:23pm Arvo: Yes, that is a reminder that I need to pack something up for Don. Good guy.
	9:24pm Arvo: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:23 Ha! Badoom psssh
	🎸 ♥ 9:24pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:23 Agreed. I really appreciated getting tapes in the mail, back in the day. Hell, I still get tapes in the mail regularly, and they are still a treat, every time. Lots of gems and weird stuff, still being distributed that way.
	🎸 ♥ 9:24pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @9:23 Yeah. I owe him a package, too.
	9:25pm Arvo: I have a nostalgia for pre internet tapes too though. Definitely.
	🎸 ♥ 9:27pm Austin Rich: I still that we haven't scratched the surface yet of what cassette gems are out there, waiting to be discovered. I know there's lots of folks doing their best to find as much as possible and digitize it all, but there are regularly new cool things that people find that are worth sharing.
	🎸 ♥ 9:27pm Austin Rich: "I still think that we..."
	9:28pm Mr. X: Arvo, good info in your voiceover, thanks for the background on this interesting stuff.
	🎸 ♥ 9:29pm Kat in the chat: Great story about the "Kodac" tape, glad it's getting a proper issue.
	9:29pm ramencity: ↳ Austin Rich @9:27 Eeyore Termite Temple was on the cut list for our show - they will appear some day! (speaking of cassette-only stuffs)
	🎸 ♥ 9:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:28 I do appreciate the research and info he digs up for his shows. I guess I should do that stuff on my show, but I guess I assume that everyone can google everything. Maybe I should get better about sharing stories...
	🎸 ♥ 9:30pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @9:29 Excellent! All the more reason to get another show prepped, soon!
	🎸 ♥ 9:32pm Austin Rich: I cleaned the Lava Lamp Lounge today. Even swept. If feels weird to have it so... so... uhm... what's the word?
	♥ 9:32pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:30 Between all your excellent shows, our little project, and your off radio work, you certainly keep yourself busy.
	♥ 9:33pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:32 Tidy?
	9:33pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @9:32 Immaculate?
	🎸 ♥ 9:33pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:32 I'm like a shark. If I don't keep moving... I... uhm... well, I don't die, but it's not good, that's for sure.
	🎸 ♥ 9:34pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:33 Useful?
	🎸 ♥ 9:34pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:33 Comfortable?
	9:36pm JM in Texas: Hello everyone! I’m late to the party, but better late than never!! I left a backyard BBQ to hear Arvo spin some audio fireworks 💥
	🎸 ♥ 9:37pm Austin Rich: ↳ JM in Texas @9:36 Nice to see you in the chat, JM in Texas! Glad the BBQ wasn't so good we couldn't lure you away.
	♥ 9:37pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Song: "Morning Bliss" by "Power Monster" The album name reminds me of an episode of Lilly's Proletariat.
	🎸 ♥ 9:37pm Austin Rich: ↳ JM in Texas @9:36 (Usually that Texas BBQ is pretty good... or was, the two times I was there.)
	9:37pm Arvo: Hi JM! Thanks for stopping by! Hope the bbq is still warm when you get back.
	♥ 9:38pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:37 Lumpy's
	🎸 ♥ 9:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:37 Oh, yes! Of course.
	9:40pm Arvo: ↳ Mr. X @9:28 Thanks you!
	9:41pm Arvo: Sorry sorry. We are not at power monster yet. Coming up
	🎸 ♥ 9:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @9:41 Whoops! I'm just playlist-happy! Keep pulling the trigger too soon.
	♥ 9:42pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:38 On the subject of Max, should Bryce go back in in the next part of my story? And if he does should the trip kill his physical body?
	9:42pm Arvo: Ok now we are on power monster.
	9:42pm JM in Texas: The BBQ was fantastic and I got my fill, but they also sent some home with me. I work the overnight tonight so nice to be home listening to the show before starting my night.
	9:43pm Arvo: ↳ JM in Texas @9:42 Sounds good! Assuming you have caffeine.
	♥ 9:43pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Moon was beautiful last night. So were the clouds that completely obstructed the view.
	9:44pm Arvo: Those tape loop pieces can be misleading, I know.
	🎸 ♥ 9:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:43 I could sort of see it, but I think I was on the radio during the best times to see it.
	🎸 ♥ 9:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @9:44 And, while I do "preview" these, I'm not always familiar with the stuff you pick, so I'm not always sure where one thing ends and another begins. But I'm learning!
	♥ 9:45pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: So was I but I snuck out to peek
	9:46pm Arvo: I need to make better notes with time stamps I think.
	🎸 ♥ 9:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @9:46 I was thinking about that, for the future. We're refining our process!
	9:46pm Arvo: Ok so Raymond Cummings just happened and now we are on Burden of Friendship
	9:47pm Arvo: Raymond Cummings was less than a minute
	♥ 9:48pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Going to turn in. Snuggling with kitty is making me sleepy
	9:48pm Arvo: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:48 Goodnight! Sorry!
	🎸 ♥ 9:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:48 And you're much later than we. Sleep well!
	♥ 9:49pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:49 I will.
	9:56pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "I Want To See The Children Play" by "Cephalic Index" Gotta love that Memphis sound.
	🎸 ♥ 9:57pm Austin Rich: I think between Harsh Reality, Hal McGee, and Tribe Tapes, you have three heavy-hitters who are all trying to re-issue as much cassette gold as possible.
	9:57pm Arvo: ↳ Mr. X @9:56 Chris Phinney has been updating that Harsh Reality Bandcamp account like every six hours for some years now. Some great stuff.
	🎸 ♥ 9:58pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @9:57 You are not exaggerating! He's always got something new on that page.
	10:03pm Mr. X: I had an unfortunate encounter with an earwig just last night.
	🎸 ♥ 10:03pm Austin Rich: Mr. X was in an 80's "cassette only" band. "Fate vs. Free Will Turn Signals." We've been working up to a re-issue project, but for now, all the tracks are online, on bandcamp: fatesignals.bandcamp.com
	10:03pm Arvo: ↳ Mr. X @10:03 I hope it wasn't biblical!
	🎸 ♥ 10:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:03 True story: a gentleman I haven't seen in many years, wrote a song called, "I Want To Eat You Out (Of Your Mind)," and the song was credited to, "The Revolting Earwigs."
	10:04pm Arvo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:03 I will bookmark it!
	10:04pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:03 Thanks for the plug, Austin!
	🎸 ♥ 10:06pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Recreational Labotomy" by "Trenton Wiley & Nick S... I, too, am interested in this secret day you speak of...
	10:06pm Mr. X: ↳ Arvo @10:03 It may have been for the earwig in question, as it was time for it to meet its Maker.
	🎸 ♥ 10:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Emergency Broadcast" by "Joan Krawford Fan Club" Tribe Tapes really does seem to have a nearly endless supply of weird old cassettes they are trying to re-issue.
	10:10pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "Emergency Broadcast" by "Joan Krawford Fan Club" Loving these old school phone phreak tones.
	🎸 ♥ 10:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "[Various Edits of Several Tracks AKA “Taco Bell... Fun with Phone Sex lines...
	🎸 ♥ 10:11pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:10 I found a bunch of old phone phreak recordings online a while back... was thinking of plotting some show. Maybe you're in?
	🎸 ♥ 10:11pm Kat in the chat: ooh ooh Kathy McGinty yay
	10:11pm Arvo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:09 I remember Max from Tribe Tapes saying he found that tape in the street too.
	10:11pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:11 Sounds intriguing...
	🎸 ♥ 10:12pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:11 He finds the best and weirdest stuff. It's so good.
	10:13pm Arvo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:06 I had Trenton on my radio show in Chicago where I he tried to do stand up comedy on the phone while he was drunk and apparently arguing with his partner. It was almost five hours, as I recall. Was ready to go six. https://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2011/09/trenton-willey-poor-homeless-comedianrainbow-killer-nsfw-mp3.html
	🎸 ♥ 10:14pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:13 Nice! I will have to dig into that.
	10:16pm Arvo: ↳ Song: "Cavernicoles / Charmer" by "Biota" I love this record so much. Mnemonists and Biota were so great early on. It was a pretty penny to get this one.
	🎸 ♥ 10:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:16 That was excellent! I'll need to dig into them, too. There's some excellent early 80's stuff that I'm still learning about.
	10:29pm JM in Texas: This show will require a relisten or two and note taking.
	🎸 ♥ 10:30pm Austin Rich: ↳ JM in Texas @10:29 Arvo does good work! It's worth the re-listen.
	10:33pm Arvo: ↳ JM in Texas @10:29 Thanks Austin and John! I hope I am not driving too many listeners away!
	🎸 ♥ 10:34pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:33 Not at all. I suspect people just have it on while they are BBQ-ing with their friends.
	10:34pm Arvo: We are onto the next track now
	10:34pm davefromtoronto: this is grooving!
	10:34pm Mr. X: ↳ Arvo @10:33 Still here. Finding it all most interesting.
	🎸 ♥ 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ davefromtoronto @10:34 Thanks for joining, davefromtoronto!
	10:35pm Arvo: Thanks for sticking around!
	🎸 ♥ 10:36pm Kat in the chat: Fading a bit but this woke me up haha
	10:36pm davefromtoronto: this is some cool shit
	🎸 ♥ 10:37pm Austin Rich: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:36 I think it's later for you than it is for us.
	10:37pm JM in Texas: Driving away? This is brilliant! A good deal of preparation on your part, but this is why I’m here.
	🎸 ♥ 10:39pm Austin Rich: ↳ JM in Texas @10:37 Yeah. He usually hips me to a few things, each show he does.
	🎸 ♥ 10:40pm Austin Rich: I have homemade Ramen waiting for me when this show is over. Cannot wait!
	10:40pm Arvo: ↳ JM in Texas @10:37 Thanks! I really enjoy preparing at length for a set, and having a lot of lead time. It gives me time to listen without the expectation of what to play, so that it feels natural to reach for something and I have listened to it of my own volition for years in some cases. It's like a primer on what I have been listening to since 2017, which was the last time I had regular radio activity.
	10:41pm Arvo: I have black bean spaghetti and squash!
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm WR: I echo that this is a great episode that will reward repeat listening. So many great new to me selections.
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Austin Rich: Not 1⁄2 is still active, if I'm not mistaken. I think they still self-record, and self-release... just not, it's all digital, instead of tapes.
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ WR @10:42 WR! Hooray, now it's a party!
	10:43pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "Landscape 1 (Excerpt)" by "Not 1⁄2" Andwe really needed industrial therapy after Ollie North.
	10:43pm Arvo: ↳ WR @10:42 🥰🥰🥰 much appreciated!!!
	🎸 ♥ 10:43pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:43 Yeah. Talk about a messed up time in America.
	10:44pm Arvo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:42 Yes, Al Conroy is still active and somewhat prolific on Bandcamp. I first heard the project two years ago on The Institute of Spectrasonic Sound, which I believe is out of Portland.
	🎸 ♥ 10:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Track 2" by "1348 & John Hudak" I think you can find this album, and more by John Hudak, on archive.org
	🎸 ♥ 10:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:44 I think they're out of Eugene, but certainly not far from PDX, really. I played a show at the house where he does that show, pre-pandemic. The Institute gent is very sweet. Al's stuff is so good!
	10:46pm Arvo: John Hudak is coming up ...
	10:46pm Arvo: Ok now
	🎸 ♥ 10:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:46 Damn. I'm just off my game this week. I'll blame the supermoon.
	10:48pm Arvo: I didn't make it easy for you!
	10:48pm JM in Texas: I’ve really enjoyed the John Hudak, and thx for the link Austin
	🎸 ♥ 10:48pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:48 Well, the sounds still stand on their own!
	10:49pm Mr. X: Supermoons are about as super as retired bands that keep coming out of retirement.
	10:51pm Arvo: Statistically more crime does happen on full moons, but I stopped caring about super moons years ago. It's just hype to me. When I was a kid, I actually saw a huge red moon around Christmas time, and my grandmother told me it was Rudolph the Red nosed Reindeer. I haven't seen a moon that red since. They're all disappointing, but I still love the moon.
	🎸 ♥ 10:52pm Austin Rich: We're pulling the train into the station. Thanks for sticking around, and listening everyone! I do love putting on this show, and Arvo does such great work! It's fun to have him on the show. I think our next show is in September, if I'm not mistaken?
	🎸 ♥ 10:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:51 I'm still hooked on all things spacey, and the moon. Seems like a fun place to imagine visiting.
	10:53pm Arvo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:52 Thanks Austin! I'm always honored to be part of such quality programming!
	10:53pm Mr. X: Great show, Arvo & Austin!
	10:57pm JM in Texas: Thanks for everything guys, I truly appreciate the efforts!
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Kat in the chat: Thanks Arvo and Austin!
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm WR: It has been a pleasure to have these sounds to push back against the fireworks that have been randomly popping around here. Thank you very much Arvo! And, Austin, you are always the gracious host with the most. Thank you!
	10:59pm davefromtoronto: yeah thanks for the ride!
	10:59pm Arvo: Thanks all for having me! And for sticking around!
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Austin Rich: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:59 "Arvo & Austin will return, in: Radio Rodeo II: This Time, It's Loud!"
	🎸 ♥ 11:00pm Austin Rich: 4th of July? Meh. It's Arvo of July!
	🎸 ♥ 11:02pm Austin Rich: Thanks again everyone. See you next week!
	11:03pm Arvo: 🍷👻🥂🚀🌛🍔🤠🍞🍜🍧🥳🤘🚢📯🎺📣😈
	🎸 ♥ 11:04pm Austin Rich: #(Emoji)
	11:04pm ramencity: My brother had a 45 of the Joan Jett version of "Crimson and Clover" that he played over and over - I eventually broke it and threw it under the woodbox. Sorry, bro!
	🎸 ♥ 11:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @11:04 Oh Kale! Thanks for listening!
	11:05pm Arvo: I saw Joan Jett play at a state fair on the middle of nowhere in 2017. She was still great.
	🎸 ♥ 11:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @11:05 Agreed! I've seen here a few times, and always a fun show. She's great.
	11:06pm JM in Texas: I saw her open for The Beach Boys in 1980something at Lamar University
	11:18pm Arvo: The Beach Boys played in the rain ten minutes from my home at the time, near the lake. I didn't go, but could hear it from my window. It was too early. Noon. But I liked listening from my window.
	♥ 1:23pm pwrmnstr: Very honored to have been played by the incomperable Arvo Zylo on the greatest radio station in the entire universe. i'm not crying, YOU'RE crying
	🎸 ♥ 11:11pm Austin Rich: It was our pleasure. Hopefully we'll have more of you on our show in the future, too!
	2:55pm J. Brodsky: Just wanted to clarify that there are no plans to reissue the Three Pillars Of Limbic Fission tape at present, but I hope that this can happen eventually! It's still available for streaming Bandcamp with the artist's permission.

Mid-Valley Mutations with Austin Rich: Playlist from July 4, 2023

View austinrich's profile

A combination of collage, new experimental records and other bits and bobs, Mid-Valley Mutations is a tour through the mind of Austin Rich, who has been broadcasting in some form since 1998. Heavily influenced by Dr Demento, Don Joyce and old fashioned College Radio, Austin creates Audio Essays on a variety of subjects, and even just plays records, from time to time. Sometimes Live music and Interviews will grace the program, helping create a situation where you don't really know what you're going to hear, when you tune in. What you need to know is when you enter the Mid-Valley region, be prepared for the Musical Mutations... in whatever form they take.

Tuesday 9 - 11pm (EDT) | On WFMU's Sheena's Jungle Room

	10:45am A Damn Aunt: Desperate But Not Serious Your Love Drives Me Delirious
	🎸 ♥ 6:37pm Austin Rich: Good Hello! Nice to see that A Damn Aunt has finally made it to the chat!
	8:33pm GG: Good morning Vietnam!
	♥ 8:59pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Ahoy!
	9:01pm Arvo: Good hello!
	9:01pm Charles: Hi!
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Krys O.: Howdy!
	9:02pm Arvo: I liked what I heard of your set Krys. O.!
	♥ 9:02pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Its the year of the Mutant Reformation
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm Kat in the chat: Spending the rest of the evening safer and sounder at home with 'FMU. Although I'm only about a mile from the "official" fireworks and probably a few feet from an unofficial display.
	9:03pm Arvo: Hi Kat!
	🎸 ♥ 9:04pm Krys O.: Thank you, Arvo. I'm surrounded by fireworks too. The cats are under the bed now.
	🎸 ♥ 9:04pm Kat in the chat: Hi Arvo! Looking forward to your selections!
	9:04pm ramencity: Hullo dere
	🎸 ♥ 9:05pm Austin Rich: Our city - due to the heat and the dryness - had a ban on fireworks this year. Hasn't stopped folks from lighting them off since Friday night anyway.
	🎸 ♥ 9:05pm Austin Rich: Nice to see you, ramencity kid! We just plugged your appearance next week!
	9:06pm Arvo: There are six wildfires in the cascades, all from fireworks this weekend, the paper said.
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Austin Rich: Kat in the chat: glad to have you in the chat! Always a pleasure.
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Kat in the chat: Actually pretty quiet on the street here so far. Folks might be at the official party, which I probably would have walked over to out of curiosity if there wasn't extra special radio tonight.
	🎸 ♥ 9:07pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Arvo @9:06 That's not good.
	♥ 9:07pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Arvo @9:06 That's precisely why they're using drone display this year
	9:07pm Arvo: Thanks Kat! Means a lot!
	🎸 ♥ 9:07pm Austin Rich: Yeah, our air quality has dropped this weekend. Not so good!
	9:08pm Mr. X: Amerikkkans and their explosives...
	🎸 ♥ 9:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:08 Mr. X! We have a couple shows coming up soon, too!
	9:08pm Arvo: We will be getting the smoke from Canada here out west soon, they say.
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Austin Rich: All the more reason to stay in and listen to radio.
	9:10pm ramencity: Oh man next year you should do a Canada Day special!
	♥ 9:10pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:09 And pet the cat
	9:10pm Arvo: They say the air is like a pack of cigarettes, but they didn't include nicotine, bruh.
	🎸 ♥ 9:10pm Austin Rich: (I'm guessing on the song timings here. Hopefully I'm close.)
	🎸 ♥ 9:10pm Kat in the chat: Our AQI has been all over the place. There were some bad spots last week but it's been alright last couple of days.
	9:10pm ramencity: Just got finished petting the neighbor cat Louise. (And, yes, she has a sister named Thelma..)
	🎸 ♥ 9:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @9:10 Good idea! We'll start planning it soon.
	🎸 ♥ 9:11pm Kat in the chat: ↳ ramencity @9:10 Excellent cat names
	🎸 ♥ 9:11pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @9:10 Nice! A neighbor cat: all the fun. None of the responsibility!
	♥ 9:11pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:11 Indeed those are great names
	9:11pm Arvo: I went to Canada with a lady once, and it happened to be their independence day. There was a garbage strike. Garbage everywhere. Baseball fields piled 20 feet high with garage. The pope was going to be in town for a parade, too. Picked the wrong weekend.
	🎸 ♥ 9:12pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "think im a man" by "Sharlyn Evertsz" I'm really enjoying this track! I'll have to check out more Sharlyn Evertsz.
	🎸 ♥ 9:12pm Kat in the chat: yeah I like this too
	🎸 ♥ 9:13pm Austin Rich: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:12 I try to get noisy like this... and it just comes out spacey. I'm not sure I have the noise in me.
	9:13pm Arvo: This is still Ilth Zongz my man! You will know Sharlyn when you hear her voice... She is a darling for sure.
	🎸 ♥ 9:13pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Austin Rich @9:13 I like spacy noise!
	🎸 ♥ 9:14pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @9:13 Whoops!
	9:14pm Arvo: Ilth is an excellent collage artist who also happens to do lots of tape loops and guitar work and things.
	🎸 ♥ 9:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @9:14 That was very cool. And so is this!
	9:15pm Mr. X: In space, no one can hear your noise art screams.
	9:15pm M. Pathetic: Top o' the mornin 2 u
	🎸 ♥ 9:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:15 This summer, I'm all about Dinosaur Rock.
	🎸 ♥ 9:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ M. Pathetic @9:15 Thanks for joining us!
	9:16pm ramencity: ↳ Mr. X @9:15 In space, no one can eat your ice cream
	9:17pm Arvo: I remember the wfmu premium "in myspace no one can hear you scream" back when myspace was still pre Rupert Murdoch.
	🎸 ♥ 9:17pm Krys O.: My four day weekend is over. Back to work tomorrow. G'night, all!
	9:17pm Mr. X: ↳ ramencity @9:16 That's why space is the place.
	9:17pm Arvo: ↳ Krys O. @9:17 Goodnight!
	🎸 ♥ 9:17pm Austin Rich: ↳ Krys O. @9:17 Thanks for all you do! Sleep well!
	♥ 9:18pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Three men in black said "don't report this"
	🎸 ♥ 9:18pm Kat in the chat: G'night Krys! Mine's over in a couple of hours, loud outside bangs permitting.
	9:21pm Arvo: I had an experience with Indrid Cold in 2017. I would love to read more books on Men In Black. I think John Keel is a bit of a liar, still, admittedly, but I have a funny prankish experience with that mythos.
	🎸 ♥ 9:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Presidential Timbre" by "Bret Hart" Don Campau is TIRELESS. He also does radio, and helped get my radio play aired on his station in his home town.
	9:23pm Mr. X: I certainly have nostalgic feelings about Cassette Culture.
	♥ 9:23pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Got a book on antigravity. I couldn't put it down.
	9:23pm Arvo: Yes, that is a reminder that I need to pack something up for Don. Good guy.
	9:24pm Arvo: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:23 Ha! Badoom psssh
	🎸 ♥ 9:24pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:23 Agreed. I really appreciated getting tapes in the mail, back in the day. Hell, I still get tapes in the mail regularly, and they are still a treat, every time. Lots of gems and weird stuff, still being distributed that way.
	🎸 ♥ 9:24pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @9:23 Yeah. I owe him a package, too.
	9:25pm Arvo: I have a nostalgia for pre internet tapes too though. Definitely.
	🎸 ♥ 9:27pm Austin Rich: I still that we haven't scratched the surface yet of what cassette gems are out there, waiting to be discovered. I know there's lots of folks doing their best to find as much as possible and digitize it all, but there are regularly new cool things that people find that are worth sharing.
	🎸 ♥ 9:27pm Austin Rich: "I still think that we..."
	9:28pm Mr. X: Arvo, good info in your voiceover, thanks for the background on this interesting stuff.
	🎸 ♥ 9:29pm Kat in the chat: Great story about the "Kodac" tape, glad it's getting a proper issue.
	9:29pm ramencity: ↳ Austin Rich @9:27 Eeyore Termite Temple was on the cut list for our show - they will appear some day! (speaking of cassette-only stuffs)
	🎸 ♥ 9:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:28 I do appreciate the research and info he digs up for his shows. I guess I should do that stuff on my show, but I guess I assume that everyone can google everything. Maybe I should get better about sharing stories...
	🎸 ♥ 9:30pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @9:29 Excellent! All the more reason to get another show prepped, soon!
	🎸 ♥ 9:32pm Austin Rich: I cleaned the Lava Lamp Lounge today. Even swept. If feels weird to have it so... so... uhm... what's the word?
	♥ 9:32pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:30 Between all your excellent shows, our little project, and your off radio work, you certainly keep yourself busy.
	♥ 9:33pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:32 Tidy?
	9:33pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @9:32 Immaculate?
	🎸 ♥ 9:33pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:32 I'm like a shark. If I don't keep moving... I... uhm... well, I don't die, but it's not good, that's for sure.
	🎸 ♥ 9:34pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:33 Useful?
	🎸 ♥ 9:34pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:33 Comfortable?
	9:36pm JM in Texas: Hello everyone! I’m late to the party, but better late than never!! I left a backyard BBQ to hear Arvo spin some audio fireworks 💥
	🎸 ♥ 9:37pm Austin Rich: ↳ JM in Texas @9:36 Nice to see you in the chat, JM in Texas! Glad the BBQ wasn't so good we couldn't lure you away.
	♥ 9:37pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Song: "Morning Bliss" by "Power Monster" The album name reminds me of an episode of Lilly's Proletariat.
	🎸 ♥ 9:37pm Austin Rich: ↳ JM in Texas @9:36 (Usually that Texas BBQ is pretty good... or was, the two times I was there.)
	9:37pm Arvo: Hi JM! Thanks for stopping by! Hope the bbq is still warm when you get back.
	♥ 9:38pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:37 Lumpy's
	🎸 ♥ 9:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:37 Oh, yes! Of course.
	9:40pm Arvo: ↳ Mr. X @9:28 Thanks you!
	9:41pm Arvo: Sorry sorry. We are not at power monster yet. Coming up
	🎸 ♥ 9:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @9:41 Whoops! I'm just playlist-happy! Keep pulling the trigger too soon.
	♥ 9:42pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:38 On the subject of Max, should Bryce go back in in the next part of my story? And if he does should the trip kill his physical body?
	9:42pm Arvo: Ok now we are on power monster.
	9:42pm JM in Texas: The BBQ was fantastic and I got my fill, but they also sent some home with me. I work the overnight tonight so nice to be home listening to the show before starting my night.
	9:43pm Arvo: ↳ JM in Texas @9:42 Sounds good! Assuming you have caffeine.
	♥ 9:43pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Moon was beautiful last night. So were the clouds that completely obstructed the view.
	9:44pm Arvo: Those tape loop pieces can be misleading, I know.
	🎸 ♥ 9:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:43 I could sort of see it, but I think I was on the radio during the best times to see it.
	🎸 ♥ 9:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @9:44 And, while I do "preview" these, I'm not always familiar with the stuff you pick, so I'm not always sure where one thing ends and another begins. But I'm learning!
	♥ 9:45pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: So was I but I snuck out to peek
	9:46pm Arvo: I need to make better notes with time stamps I think.
	🎸 ♥ 9:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @9:46 I was thinking about that, for the future. We're refining our process!
	9:46pm Arvo: Ok so Raymond Cummings just happened and now we are on Burden of Friendship
	9:47pm Arvo: Raymond Cummings was less than a minute
	♥ 9:48pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Going to turn in. Snuggling with kitty is making me sleepy
	9:48pm Arvo: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:48 Goodnight! Sorry!
	🎸 ♥ 9:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:48 And you're much later than we. Sleep well!
	♥ 9:49pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:49 I will.
	9:56pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "I Want To See The Children Play" by "Cephalic Index" Gotta love that Memphis sound.
	🎸 ♥ 9:57pm Austin Rich: I think between Harsh Reality, Hal McGee, and Tribe Tapes, you have three heavy-hitters who are all trying to re-issue as much cassette gold as possible.
	9:57pm Arvo: ↳ Mr. X @9:56 Chris Phinney has been updating that Harsh Reality Bandcamp account like every six hours for some years now. Some great stuff.
	🎸 ♥ 9:58pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @9:57 You are not exaggerating! He's always got something new on that page.
	10:03pm Mr. X: I had an unfortunate encounter with an earwig just last night.
	🎸 ♥ 10:03pm Austin Rich: Mr. X was in an 80's "cassette only" band. "Fate vs. Free Will Turn Signals." We've been working up to a re-issue project, but for now, all the tracks are online, on bandcamp: fatesignals.bandcamp.com
	10:03pm Arvo: ↳ Mr. X @10:03 I hope it wasn't biblical!
	🎸 ♥ 10:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:03 True story: a gentleman I haven't seen in many years, wrote a song called, "I Want To Eat You Out (Of Your Mind)," and the song was credited to, "The Revolting Earwigs."
	10:04pm Arvo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:03 I will bookmark it!
	10:04pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:03 Thanks for the plug, Austin!
	🎸 ♥ 10:06pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Recreational Labotomy" by "Trenton Wiley & Nick S... I, too, am interested in this secret day you speak of...
	10:06pm Mr. X: ↳ Arvo @10:03 It may have been for the earwig in question, as it was time for it to meet its Maker.
	🎸 ♥ 10:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Emergency Broadcast" by "Joan Krawford Fan Club" Tribe Tapes really does seem to have a nearly endless supply of weird old cassettes they are trying to re-issue.
	10:10pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "Emergency Broadcast" by "Joan Krawford Fan Club" Loving these old school phone phreak tones.
	🎸 ♥ 10:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "[Various Edits of Several Tracks AKA “Taco Bell... Fun with Phone Sex lines...
	🎸 ♥ 10:11pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:10 I found a bunch of old phone phreak recordings online a while back... was thinking of plotting some show. Maybe you're in?
	🎸 ♥ 10:11pm Kat in the chat: ooh ooh Kathy McGinty yay
	10:11pm Arvo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:09 I remember Max from Tribe Tapes saying he found that tape in the street too.
	10:11pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:11 Sounds intriguing...
	🎸 ♥ 10:12pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:11 He finds the best and weirdest stuff. It's so good.
	10:13pm Arvo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:06 I had Trenton on my radio show in Chicago where I he tried to do stand up comedy on the phone while he was drunk and apparently arguing with his partner. It was almost five hours, as I recall. Was ready to go six. https://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2011/09/trenton-willey-poor-homeless-comedianrainbow-killer-nsfw-mp3.html
	🎸 ♥ 10:14pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:13 Nice! I will have to dig into that.
	10:16pm Arvo: ↳ Song: "Cavernicoles / Charmer" by "Biota" I love this record so much. Mnemonists and Biota were so great early on. It was a pretty penny to get this one.
	🎸 ♥ 10:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:16 That was excellent! I'll need to dig into them, too. There's some excellent early 80's stuff that I'm still learning about.
	10:29pm JM in Texas: This show will require a relisten or two and note taking.
	🎸 ♥ 10:30pm Austin Rich: ↳ JM in Texas @10:29 Arvo does good work! It's worth the re-listen.
	10:33pm Arvo: ↳ JM in Texas @10:29 Thanks Austin and John! I hope I am not driving too many listeners away!
	🎸 ♥ 10:34pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:33 Not at all. I suspect people just have it on while they are BBQ-ing with their friends.
	10:34pm Arvo: We are onto the next track now
	10:34pm davefromtoronto: this is grooving!
	10:34pm Mr. X: ↳ Arvo @10:33 Still here. Finding it all most interesting.
	🎸 ♥ 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ davefromtoronto @10:34 Thanks for joining, davefromtoronto!
	10:35pm Arvo: Thanks for sticking around!
	🎸 ♥ 10:36pm Kat in the chat: Fading a bit but this woke me up haha
	10:36pm davefromtoronto: this is some cool shit
	🎸 ♥ 10:37pm Austin Rich: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:36 I think it's later for you than it is for us.
	10:37pm JM in Texas: Driving away? This is brilliant! A good deal of preparation on your part, but this is why I’m here.
	🎸 ♥ 10:39pm Austin Rich: ↳ JM in Texas @10:37 Yeah. He usually hips me to a few things, each show he does.
	🎸 ♥ 10:40pm Austin Rich: I have homemade Ramen waiting for me when this show is over. Cannot wait!
	10:40pm Arvo: ↳ JM in Texas @10:37 Thanks! I really enjoy preparing at length for a set, and having a lot of lead time. It gives me time to listen without the expectation of what to play, so that it feels natural to reach for something and I have listened to it of my own volition for years in some cases. It's like a primer on what I have been listening to since 2017, which was the last time I had regular radio activity.
	10:41pm Arvo: I have black bean spaghetti and squash!
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm WR: I echo that this is a great episode that will reward repeat listening. So many great new to me selections.
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Austin Rich: Not 1⁄2 is still active, if I'm not mistaken. I think they still self-record, and self-release... just not, it's all digital, instead of tapes.
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ WR @10:42 WR! Hooray, now it's a party!
	10:43pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "Landscape 1 (Excerpt)" by "Not 1⁄2" Andwe really needed industrial therapy after Ollie North.
	10:43pm Arvo: ↳ WR @10:42 🥰🥰🥰 much appreciated!!!
	🎸 ♥ 10:43pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:43 Yeah. Talk about a messed up time in America.
	10:44pm Arvo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:42 Yes, Al Conroy is still active and somewhat prolific on Bandcamp. I first heard the project two years ago on The Institute of Spectrasonic Sound, which I believe is out of Portland.
	🎸 ♥ 10:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Track 2" by "1348 & John Hudak" I think you can find this album, and more by John Hudak, on archive.org
	🎸 ♥ 10:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:44 I think they're out of Eugene, but certainly not far from PDX, really. I played a show at the house where he does that show, pre-pandemic. The Institute gent is very sweet. Al's stuff is so good!
	10:46pm Arvo: John Hudak is coming up ...
	10:46pm Arvo: Ok now
	🎸 ♥ 10:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:46 Damn. I'm just off my game this week. I'll blame the supermoon.
	10:48pm Arvo: I didn't make it easy for you!
	10:48pm JM in Texas: I’ve really enjoyed the John Hudak, and thx for the link Austin
	🎸 ♥ 10:48pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:48 Well, the sounds still stand on their own!
	10:49pm Mr. X: Supermoons are about as super as retired bands that keep coming out of retirement.
	10:51pm Arvo: Statistically more crime does happen on full moons, but I stopped caring about super moons years ago. It's just hype to me. When I was a kid, I actually saw a huge red moon around Christmas time, and my grandmother told me it was Rudolph the Red nosed Reindeer. I haven't seen a moon that red since. They're all disappointing, but I still love the moon.
	🎸 ♥ 10:52pm Austin Rich: We're pulling the train into the station. Thanks for sticking around, and listening everyone! I do love putting on this show, and Arvo does such great work! It's fun to have him on the show. I think our next show is in September, if I'm not mistaken?
	🎸 ♥ 10:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:51 I'm still hooked on all things spacey, and the moon. Seems like a fun place to imagine visiting.
	10:53pm Arvo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:52 Thanks Austin! I'm always honored to be part of such quality programming!
	10:53pm Mr. X: Great show, Arvo & Austin!
	10:57pm JM in Texas: Thanks for everything guys, I truly appreciate the efforts!
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Kat in the chat: Thanks Arvo and Austin!
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm WR: It has been a pleasure to have these sounds to push back against the fireworks that have been randomly popping around here. Thank you very much Arvo! And, Austin, you are always the gracious host with the most. Thank you!
	10:59pm davefromtoronto: yeah thanks for the ride!
	10:59pm Arvo: Thanks all for having me! And for sticking around!
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Austin Rich: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:59 "Arvo & Austin will return, in: Radio Rodeo II: This Time, It's Loud!"
