Favoriting Brian Turner: Playlist from July 17, 2012 Favoriting

Order and disorder in a freeform haze of terribly-played guitars, shorted-out electronics, found audio detritus, strange sounds from strange lands all around. Psych-punk-junk, collage, even pop. Lots of in-studio live performances to boot.

NBC seems to have put a lid on those clips Cheri. Oddly enough tonight I'm having dinner with a bud that was doing work for David Sanborn and that show --- I will ask her what the status is, I know they were plugging to get Night Music out on DVD. But lotsa parties involved obviously...

Wow, all rhymes: BT, DCE, CP & (paula) PC.

Clearly so! Myself, very busy with a "Honey do" list. ;)
  3:12pm
G:

@kat: Was in Maryland with family from 7/5 till this past weekend. Heavy social calendar, not much me time -- especially because I was using any open time, either mornings or latenights, to do my regular work (online). I listened online when I had a little free time, but didn't do much commenting...

hi to all, and @ JDELZ I have never heard this and it is so great, yes!

what's this label? Jason Sigal is on the cover of their blog: http://www.sleepinggiantglossolalia.com/

Most rockin' fertility rituals of any culture I've heard!
(And "Sleeping Giant Glossalalia"!! +10 points!)

Hi BT and everyone!
(To join the game, even "Matt from Springfiel-Dee" can fit the rhyme! :)

Have any of you heard Northern Haze yet? An Inuit heavy band from the early 80s. It's great! An anthology LP was recently released.

@kat330: Ah, they launched that last Nov 26, I guess they're not taking a very direct (3 month) route to Mars. The "Curiosity" Mars Rover/Mars Science Laboratory, and is evidently run by the Jet Propulsion Lab in Pasadena:

this Disco Zombies song is genius.
  3:24pm

Link appreciated, Matt. Huh, three months normally might explain Morgan Freeman's misspoken date of landing on March 5th last night.

This Diamond Terrifier reminds of a Ground Zero piece where Otomo recorded a alto sax in an abandoned warehouse.

Thanks Brian! First time this album has been played on the radio! - adam, northern spy

Also loved the Disco Zombies, sounds like I've heard other stuff by them.

I'm still trying to figure out the translation of the Vi Kommer Til A Fa Deg film: Google says "We Will Til A Fa Dough," but elsewhere I found "a long palpable nooodle".
  3:57pm
northguineahills:

If I could become a luche libre star, I'd be Gringo Starr.

/Sorry, this Tuesday is affecting me....
  3:58pm

Gringo Starr is actually a band name already...

but you can still follow your dreams, NGH!

Damnit, DCE! There goes plan D. Still hedging bets on plan C.

Matt from Springfield:

Although, "Gringo Star" seems to be spelled with only one 'r'--so become the "Starr" that all the Gringos love!
  4:02pm

sans palpable poodle, alas.

And yet with a palpable noodle?

There's your band name, DCE: Palpable Poodle.
  4:05pm
DCE:

aw, I was leaning towards "typical Ohio stink", but ok!
  4:07pm
northguineahills:

Prodding poodle paddle pods?
  4:08pm
Matt from Springfield:

@DCE: The problem is that most people from outside Ohio don't have a "typical" Ohio stink in their mind..
  4:08pm
DCE:

a good band name won't make you spit on the listener's face while you say it--that's today's tip
  4:08pm
Matt from Springfield:

Throbbing Poodle?
  4:09pm
DCE:

we have a local fella, last name Griswold...he used the "Throbbing Griswold" name, so that's killed for Cleveland.

kata:

this is a great fucking show BT ! and howdy listeners !!!
  4:11pm
Matt from Springfield:

@DCE: "Face Spit" sounds good...strong, succinct, and I don't think merely saying it will cause someone to spit on your face!
  4:12pm
kat330:

Can't speak to typical oHIo sound, but I've got an ear lock on the local Louisville sound. Whenever the local public radio AAA channel plays a group recorded in Louisville, I know it before they announce it. Must only be one main recording studio, and it can be "heard."
  4:12pm
northguineahills:

I thought Andy Moor And Yannis Kyriakides already did a rembetika cover album four years ago.
  4:13pm
fred:

Now I'm even more pissed off I managed to miss Moor/Kyriakides. That dance show wasn't worth it
  4:15pm
DCE:

great track, for sure...@kat330, you must have the ear for it! Louisville definitely used to have a sound associated with it in ye olden tymes.
  4:15pm
kat330:

NRBQ times?
  4:16pm
Matt from Springfield:

FMA download! Sounds great.
"Steady Diet of Hash..." seems to be a Greek theme; Joe McG once played a Greek song from the 30s that was translated as "Hashish Smoking Chicks"!
  4:16pm
northguineahills:

I had an old Greek coworker 8 years ago give me a stash of rembetika records that were his father's. I'm eternally grateful.
  4:17pm
Matt from Springfield:

@kat: Pretty impressive! I try to learn various aspects of production from music I hear, that's good on your part that you can catch that particular studio as you hear it!
  4:20pm
kat330:

I don't think the studio(s) is doing the artists any favors. The tracks always seem to, I dunno, lack a certain something. Philo will vouch how frequently I get it right. (not that I'm cheating *that* often on FMU with WFPK. ;)
  4:20pm
Matt from Springfield:

@NGH: Wonderful! I'm learning just what Rebetiko is, and that much of the Greek I've heard on FMU fits that description.

"Rebetiko, plural rebetika, (Greek: ρεμπέτικο, pronounced [reˈbetiko] and ρεμπέτικα respectively), occasionally transliterated as Rembetiko, is a term used today to designate originally disparate kinds of urban Greek folk music which have come to be grouped together since the so-called rebetika revival, which started in the 1960s and developed further from the early 1970s onwards."
  4:21pm
Cheri Pi:

I'm so buyng Oddities and Dopesmoker this week with my allowance.
  4:21pm
Cecile:

how tiny is the reissue of the Clean record?
  4:22pm
Matt from Springfield:

"Like several other urban subcultural musical forms such as the blues, flamenco, fado, bal-musette and tango, rebetiko grew out of particular urban circumstances. Oftentimes, but by no means always, its lyrics reflect the harsher realities of a marginalized subculture's lifestyle. Thus one finds themes such as crime, drink, drugs, poverty, prostitution and violence, but also a multitude of themes of relevance to Greek people of any social stratum: death, eroticism, exile, exoticism, disease, love, marriage, matchmaking, the mother figure, war, work, and diverse other everyday matters, both happy and sad."
  4:24pm
Cecile:

I think Keith Ferguson from the Tail Gators, etc, put it well: "You couldn't sing that stuff unless you'd lost an eye in a knife fight and a couple of fingers to syphilis."
  4:24pm
Matt from Springfield:

"The womb of rebetika was the jail and the hash den. It was there that the early rebetes created their songs. They sang in quiet, hoarse voices, unforced, one after the other, each singer adding a verse which often bore no relation to the previous verse, and a song often went on for hours. There was no refrain, and the melody was simple and easy. One rebetis accompanied the singer with a bouzouki or a baglamas (a smaller version of the bouzouki, very portable, easy to make in prison and easy to hide from the police), and perhaps another, moved by the music, would get up and dance. The early rebetika songs, particularly the love songs, were based on Greek folk songs and the songs of the Greeks of Smyrna and Constantinople."
— Elias Petropoulos
  4:26pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Cecile: The Greek rebetika? Yeah, I'd believe that!
  4:26pm
Letha:

Just made it home to listen!!! Boyz!
  4:27pm
Cecile:

Yep!!!
  4:28pm
northguineahills:

I have some LPs (from the late 50s/early60s) of recordings of early rembetika from the 30s-40s. The genesis was in the Ionian islands from sailors whom liked to sing about sex, drugs, and other themes familiar to most "blues" contexts. It later matured in the urban Greek milieu.

@Cheri: More of a light rock than reggae style, but they harmonize together well, much like A&D and in the same era.

Saw Rat at Rat R long ago. Pretty cool. Can we say on a par with Live Skull ?

@ Martha -- yes, i forgot that Thalia Live Skull was later than most Rat at Rat R anyway
  4:52pm

I think I liked Mofungo best of all NY bands because I spent under $15 buckss for their entire discography!
  4:52pm
Cheri Pi:

Ooooh my x-mas gift to myself this year was Manilla Road's Crystal Logic LP-I had to order it from the UK and felt very special about it.

Yeah Juan ruled on that, Lee helped the mix out after too and zipped it back. Shelley's drums and that room are quite the wedding....

LOVED that Lee Ranaldo set! Now that I'm looking at that page I remember it (and that photo!) Perfect post-Marathon treat.

It was my virgin listening experience as well, at least my first live set engineered by Juan Aboites; I'm sold on him now!

"THANK YOU LEE!!
And thank you Steve, Irwin, Alan, BT, and who could forget Juan Aboites! (Great engineer, he's new to me!)" :)

Can't recall the name, but there was an excellent restaurant on Main St. in Evanston -- maybe 3-4 blocks from the beach -- but the way restaurants disappear, probably not there anymore. Or completely different.

Only here would the Prostration to the 35 Buddhas be in heavy rotation. I like this alternate universe.

Dave from Geese:

35 Buddhas!

I heard this haunting and lovely track on Liz' show yesterday.

tim from champaign:

Kat - thanks for the tip! I'm heading up that way on Saturday.
  5:31pm
Matt from Springfield:

Also tips for Chicago-area listeners: besides listener Kat in Chicago, look out for Aaron in Chicago, and Joe from Chicago. Trying to think of who else...BadGuyZero was just visiting Chicago, you could ask him.
  5:32pm
kat330:

Caveat emptor: Been 20 years since I could vouch for it! :) Ah, I miss Lee Beach... and the museums...

@MfS - Are you forming a commenters directory?
  5:33pm
kata:

haven't ever been to chicago :) yet.
  5:34pm
kat330:

Yeah, I was wondering the same thing, Mike. Who else has ever commented from the Louisville area, Matt?
Avatar 5:36pm
BT:

I havent been to Chicago either. Road trip?
  5:36pm
northguineahills:

Oort Trio, as in the Oort Cloud, could have used another 15 minutes of that to cleanse the cobwebs in me noggin.
  5:36pm
kat330:

[and don't say Philo Gristle / JT / Honey Water -- I already know about them ;) ]
  5:37pm
Cecile:

I could go back. Haven't been back except for 36 hours 2 yrs ago where a girlfriend took me on this crazy past trip to see Eddie Izzard at the United Center.

kat330:

@BT: You might want to wait until this heat wave and drought settles down.

kata:

I would like to check Chicago out, especially since my vegetarian days are over. Although I still will not eat steak. But sausages are good there, yes ?
  5:39pm
kat330:

Oh, yes, brats and beer! :)
  5:39pm
Matt from Springfield:

@kat: Well, according to my records on listener's IP addresses, listener "Beezneez" once commented from a motel outside of Louisville... :)

Actually, it's as simple as a "site:wfmu.org" and keywords on Chicago. I already know of Kat and Aaron (and BGZ), but trying to sniff out more commenters living there.
  5:40pm
kat330:

Heh! Probably a motel on this side of the river in Knob Knee. :)
  5:40pm
Matt from Springfield:

Hi kata :)
Many diff types of Chicago sausages.

(But no steak? All I'm saying is, the making of steak isn't as cringe-inducing as the making of sausages!)
  5:45pm
kata:

closest I've been is Milwaukee, discovered the greatest american beer ever made -- Lakefront White !

MFS: cows are so cute + past life as hindu
  5:46pm
tim from champaign:

Kata - look up Hot Dougs in Chicago for some sausages. In true northern midwestern style, you need to pronounce sausages as "sassages".
  5:47pm
kat330:

Is this "Everything I needed to know I learned in high school"?
  5:48pm
kat330:

Da brats, da beer, da Bears.

I could really go for a Chicago style hot dog right now.

  5:51pm

Never surf the web faster than your guardian geek can type.
