Listener comments!
	🥁 12:01pm Yvang: Chabadabada! Hello Tony C and fellow listeners!
	12:02pm Tony Coulter: Hiya hey hello, Yvang!
	12:10pm Rich in Washington: Hi Tony! Hi Yvang!
	12:11pm Tony Coulter: High Low, Rich!
	12:13pm Tony Coulter: I wonder if avant turntabilists like Martin Tétreault (on now) or Christian Marclay would have popped up if not for hip hop. Probably not....
	12:24pm Tony Coulter: In case you're wondering what language Hekinah Degul is -- it's Lilliputian.
	12:24pm JtotheK: Hi Tony, hi everyone.
	12:25pm Tony Coulter: Hey, hey, JtotheK!
	12:26pm TomDash: Hey Tony, tuning in at the shop. Just missed the early SY but along for the ride now - really digging this piece...
	12:26pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Tom!
	12:27pm Tony Coulter: Hope the show doesn't drive your customers away....
	12:29pm TomDash: Oh I'm sure it will at some point - that's what the MUTE button is for - ha!
	12:39pm Tony Coulter: Paul Major was a member of the Moldy Dogs (on now)
	12:42pm Tony Coulter: Anyone who's been to an FMU record fair knows Paul.
	12:50pm Tony Coulter: Where is everybody today? Did I forget to unlock the front door?
	12:52pm Linda Lee: i'm here, Tony! doing the before-listing cabin chores with ears open. i like Wilma!
	12:52pm Dean: Present.
	12:53pm Linda Lee: wasn't Christian Marclay around before pop hiphop? sure he was..
	12:53pm Tony Coulter: Ah, good. Heya, Linda Lee & Dean!
	12:55pm Tony Coulter: @ Linda Lee: Christain Marclay started doing his turntable thing in the early '80s, or possibly late '70s -- so after the first hip hop turntable stuff.
	12:57pm Linda Lee: right, late 70s. most of us outside the communities where hiphop started weren't really hearing it yet, though. i think it all rose together. coincidentally, from what paved the way.
	1:01pm Linda Lee: i bet he came more out of the experimental music scene (read white) & cutup literature method.
	1:03pm Tony Coulter: Could certainly be. Tho people in the NYC avant/downtown music scene (Zorn, Laswell, etc.) certainly had some awareness of hip hop pretty early on.
	1:05pm Linda Lee: true true. i have a sense he would've found his turntables without it, but who knows! maybe you're right! it's all pretty wonderful regardless.
	🥁 1:06pm Yvang: Niqué is french for fucked up
	1:08pm Tony Coulter: @ Yvang: Didn't know that!!
	1:08pm Dean: Monteverdi and Copland, one after the other, two of my favorite composers.
	1:09pm Tony Coulter: I aim to please.
	1:09pm Rich in Washington: I still vividly recall getting turned on to Copland in elementary school. Our music teacher loved this piece and played it for us.
	1:10pm Linda Lee: why must i mow the damn lawn for commercial purposes when i'd rather be still & give amazing music my full attention? not fair, i say!
	1:12pm Linda Lee: at least there's no motor..
	1:13pm Tony Coulter: FYI: The voice we're hearing sampled here is the voice of I.F. Stone.
	1:14pm Mayuko: Good afternoon, Tony and all!!
	1:15pm Rich in Washington: I love Scott Johnson. His John Somebody is one of my favorite albums of all time.
	1:16pm Tony Coulter: Mayuko! Hiya! You're just in time for a block of tracks from CDs I found in the garbage last week. They're coming up after this piece.
	1:17pm Linda Lee: John Somebody! remember that guy? :-D
	1:18pm Mayuko: Very happy to arrive in time for the garbage set.
	1:19pm Rich in Washington: Hi Linda Lee! Hi Mayuko!
	1:19pm Tony Coulter: It was stuff thrown away by the advertising agency Wieden & Kennedy. They have (had?) their own in-house radio station.
	1:20pm Mayuko: Hii, Rich!
	1:23pm Linda Lee: hi Mayuko!
	1:23pm Linda Lee: hi Rich!
	1:24pm Linda Lee: love trash finds! half my collection now is trash finds.
	1:25pm Mayuko: When I was in Japan I sent my artwork to some critique opportunity and a director from Wieden & Kennedy was the only person in the judges who said somewhat positive things about it. So I have some hope for em and I have 100% trust in your ability to find gems even in garbage!!!
	🥁 1:25pm Yvang: So it's Garbage Time x2!, I just hope you didn't find a Felder record in the trashbin.
	1:25pm Rich in Washington: I vaguely remember hearing about W&K's radio station. I think they were either doing or planning to pipe music to subscribing businesses, restaurants, etc.
	1:29pm Tony Coulter: We're already wading in the garbage, btw.
	1:31pm Rich in Washington: I once got tipped off that local hipster alt/weekly The Mercury was throwing out thousands of CDs and myself and station manager of college radio station KOUG went and picked them up - we were sort of hoping to build a station library. Musicians, if you were wondering where your CDs you were hoping to get reviewed by The Merc, they simply threw them unopened in huge bins and finally dumped them.
	1:32pm Rich in Washington: It was actually kind of depressing from an artist's viewpoint.
	🥁 1:34pm Yvang: The hardest part for artists is dealing with indifference and rejection
	1:35pm Tony Coulter: In case you're wondering: Mongo wasn't in the trash -- he just sort of wandered by.
	1:39pm Mayuko: @Rich that's interesting re:W&K subscription service. I often wonder why interior design is so common but don't see people trying to sell curated music as part of design for commercial facilities. I guess it's all covered by Spotify and such.
	🥁 1:41pm Yvang: It makes sense to throw a Resolution '08 into the Garbage '19
	1:41pm Rich in Washington: There was also an attempt at brand-specific curated radio streams for businesses by the marketing firm headed by ex-Gang of Four member Dave Allen, also here in Portland.
	1:42pm Rich in Washington: I think the firm was called North. I have no idea what happened to it or if Allen is even still living in Portland. I think he works for Apple Music now.
	1:43pm Rich in Washington: Yeah. This was all pre-Spotify.
	1:50pm Tony Coulter: From before we broke out in Spotify.
	1:53pm Tony Coulter: Dereck Higgins (on now) has an interesting record-centered youtube channel: www.youtube.com...
	1:56pm TomDash: Been going down a Dereck Higgins rabbit hole as of late - He puts lots of of his stuff, including rare early singles, up on bandcamp, which is great! dereckhiggins.bandcamp.com
	1:56pm Rich in Washington: Oh wow. I've seen a couple of his videos. They're really interesting!
	1:59pm Linda Lee: these are still from the bin?
	1:59pm Tony Coulter: I've been spending more time than I'd like to admit watching Vinyl Community videos.
	2:00pm Tony Coulter: @ Linda Lee: Nope. Only got six useable tracks out of the bin. I closed the garbage lid at the end of the last set.
	2:01pm Linda Lee: ah. good. this stuff doesn't belong in there.
	2:02pm Linda Lee: i'd imagine vinyl community videos are like our high school boyfriends' endless conversations about records .. records .. records ('74 - '78).
	2:03pm Linda Lee: a little circle-jerky, they were.
	2:04pm Rich in Washington: There's a hilarious scene in the Terry Zwigoff/Daniel Clowes film Ghost World of some old-timey vinyl enthusiasts at a party. Too true.
	2:05pm Linda Lee: ahaha! yes! :-D
	2:08pm Rich in Washington: I should probably picked up one of the many, many copies I find of the Mason William's Phonograph Record. I remember my parents playing it and thinking, at the time, that this is a really odd record.
	2:09pm Tony Coulter: It is worth picking up, for sure.
	2:10pm Tony Coulter: And still only a buck....
	2:11pm Linda Lee: i sure would!
	2:13pm Rich in Washington: I had the surreal experience of visiting the Goodwill in my hometown and finding that my parents record collection was there. I actually bought a few of them for sentimental reasons.
	2:14pm Linda Lee: gosh. how did that happen without your knowledge? hopefully they'd made the choice themselves.
	2:14pm Linda Lee: what's wild, too, is that you'd recognize the collection as theirs without doubt.
	2:18pm Tony Coulter: I inherited several of my uncle's Brazilian records. I must have played at least one of them on FMU at some point.
	2:18pm Rich in Washington: There were just too many of the same records to have been a coincidence, and a few of them relatively obscure against the regular thrift store fodder. I was actually in town to visit them, so later asked my mother, who sheepishly confirmed. For some reason, my dad was reluctant to part with them, despite no longer having a record player.
	2:19pm Rich in Washington: I was slightly miffed that they didn't say anything to me, but I suspect that my mom threw them out without telling my dad, so kept mum.
	2:20pm Tony Coulter: Hmm, mum kept mum.
	2:28pm Linda Lee: i understand your dad's feelings, for sure. they're not just records. Mom just wanted them gone.
	2:29pm Linda Lee: i would've picked up the whole collection, if possible. then secretly let your dad know they were rescued..
	2:31pm coelacanth∅: hey Tony and all
	2:31pm Tony Coulter: Ahoy, coelacanth∅!
	2:32pm Linda Lee: hi!
	2:34pm coelacanth∅: hi Linda!
	2:36pm Rich in Washington: It's complicated. Family-of-origin love is easily 50% Stockholm Syndrome
	2:37pm Linda Lee: yes. very complicated. always.
	2:39pm Linda Lee: & there's no automatic relief as the parents depart, as i've found in recent years. surprise!
	2:41pm Stanley: Tony. Friends. Tony's friends Hello.
	2:41pm Rich in Washington: one legendary (in my FoO) tale involving a record was this time were my mom was frustrated in some of my older siblings not getting out of bed for school, so she put on this insipid christmas record - one that she used to play really loud on xmas morning to call us out of bed - really, really loud on the stereo and my older brother and sisters came running downstairs, only to learn of my mom's ruse.
	2:42pm northguineahills: ahh, Kim Gordon....
	2:42pm Rich in Washington: @Linda Lee: I am starting to understand that. I am actually visiting and calling them on the phone more and more frequently as they get on.
	2:42pm Tony Coulter: Stanley! NGH!! Greetings, greetings!
	2:43pm Linda Lee: it's good to do what you feel you should do. don't avoid doing it.
	2:44pm ∅ff the subject for a moment: hey Rich (iW) during your last show you posted (something like) "did David Thomas scare everyone away" and just before you posted that i was trying to post something i don't remember what but it wouldn't post. turns out the internet failed over a fairly broad range for a while that evening. no nothing you played scared me off!
	2:45pm ∅kay, as you were...: (just wanted to make that clear!)
	2:45pm Rich in Washington: oh good! That explains that! I am also aware that I am on a tail end of a long day of programming, so expect that some listener fatigue may set in. I'm grateful anyone listens to my weird little show!
	2:46pm Linda Lee: i like your weird little show! :-)
	2:47pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Linda Lee!
	2:47pm Rich in Washington: I am probably going to expand my show to two hours in October.
	2:47pm Linda Lee: great!!
	2:49pm Linda Lee: the more we see that 'live DJ ' tag the better! it reminds me of the 'live nude girls' signs in old Times Square!
	2:49pm Listening Out There: Ah. So this is the Apple event [settling in]...
	2:49pm Rich in Washington: I wish there were a radio station or stream of just Modern symphonic composers.
	2:50pm Rich in Washington: I really like the Live DJ tag. You're right! It is like a neon sign!
	2:51pm Linda Lee: Live! DJ! Live! DJ! :-D
	2:51pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, L.O.T.!
	2:52pm coelacanth∅: re: your conversation, my father checked out of here last december and i have barely felt a thing. it's kind of where i've gotten to in general, but...it's my father. sometimes quite an asshole but not a full-time ogre by any means. sometimes i start to feel sad and then think about this or that that he was a dick about.
	2:52pm Linda Lee: agree about the modern symphony stream. we do hear some of these works from Bethany on A440 ~ glad to see her back on the schedule.
	2:52pm David D: Hey Tony and all, here's the onward link for the next show: wfmu.org...
	2:53pm Rich in Washington: It's the next best thing to having a ratty character out on the pavement handing out handbills "LIVE DJs! CHECK IT OUT"
	2:53pm Linda Lee: coel, i know where you are with your father. i'm in the same place with my mother. we have to do this our own way.
	2:54pm Linda Lee: @Rich ~ yes, with a sandwich board!
	2:56pm Linda Lee: thanks, Tony!
	2:56pm Rich in Washington: coelacanth∅/Linda Lee: I'm there relatively soon with my father and some kind of memory care is in the very near future for my mother. I just let a lot of past stuff go and lean into my gratitude to them and visit them as often as possible.
	2:56pm Rich in Washington: Great show, Tony! Thanks!
	2:57pm coelacanth∅: re: @2.41 one tale involving a record was the meet the beatles album they bought eventually ended up in the kids' hands and it got a split in it. i figured out i can press it tightly flat and play it anyway. my mother decided i was taking too long to clean my room and my father joined the mob and picked up the record from my desk, saw it was cracked and said you can't play this anyway! i said i can and he said i can't and proceeded to whack it against the desk until it was in bits, and i was hysterical.
	2:57pm Mayuko: Thanks for another great show, Tony!
	2:57pm Linda Lee: wow ..
	2:58pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, everybody! See you next week, I hope!
	2:58pm Rich in Washington: Oh man. That's awful, coelacanth∅!
	2:58pm Linda Lee: i think he was right, actually, but that wasn't helpful behavior.
	2:59pm coelacanth∅: i guess i got tough thanks to them right!
	2:59pm Linda Lee: i tell myself all the time: not everyone is qualified to parent. few really are, most likely.
	2:59pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Tony!
	8:27pm malloo: Today a month later I noticed you will get "The West of Yximalloo 3" within 2019. Thanks!

	1:56pm Rich in Washington: Oh wow. I've seen a couple of his videos. They're really interesting!
	1:59pm Linda Lee: these are still from the bin?
	1:59pm Tony Coulter: I've been spending more time than I'd like to admit watching Vinyl Community videos.
	2:00pm Tony Coulter: @ Linda Lee: Nope. Only got six useable tracks out of the bin. I closed the garbage lid at the end of the last set.
	2:01pm Linda Lee: ah. good. this stuff doesn't belong in there.
	2:02pm Linda Lee: i'd imagine vinyl community videos are like our high school boyfriends' endless conversations about records .. records .. records ('74 - '78).
	2:03pm Linda Lee: a little circle-jerky, they were.
	2:04pm Rich in Washington: There's a hilarious scene in the Terry Zwigoff/Daniel Clowes film Ghost World of some old-timey vinyl enthusiasts at a party. Too true.
	2:05pm Linda Lee: ahaha! yes! :-D
	2:08pm Rich in Washington: I should probably picked up one of the many, many copies I find of the Mason William's Phonograph Record. I remember my parents playing it and thinking, at the time, that this is a really odd record.
	2:09pm Tony Coulter: It is worth picking up, for sure.
	2:10pm Tony Coulter: And still only a buck....
	2:11pm Linda Lee: i sure would!
	2:13pm Rich in Washington: I had the surreal experience of visiting the Goodwill in my hometown and finding that my parents record collection was there. I actually bought a few of them for sentimental reasons.
	2:14pm Linda Lee: gosh. how did that happen without your knowledge? hopefully they'd made the choice themselves.
	2:14pm Linda Lee: what's wild, too, is that you'd recognize the collection as theirs without doubt.
	2:18pm Tony Coulter: I inherited several of my uncle's Brazilian records. I must have played at least one of them on FMU at some point.
	2:18pm Rich in Washington: There were just too many of the same records to have been a coincidence, and a few of them relatively obscure against the regular thrift store fodder. I was actually in town to visit them, so later asked my mother, who sheepishly confirmed. For some reason, my dad was reluctant to part with them, despite no longer having a record player.
	2:19pm Rich in Washington: I was slightly miffed that they didn't say anything to me, but I suspect that my mom threw them out without telling my dad, so kept mum.
	2:20pm Tony Coulter: Hmm, mum kept mum.
	2:28pm Linda Lee: i understand your dad's feelings, for sure. they're not just records. Mom just wanted them gone.
	2:29pm Linda Lee: i would've picked up the whole collection, if possible. then secretly let your dad know they were rescued..
	2:31pm coelacanth∅: hey Tony and all
	2:31pm Tony Coulter: Ahoy, coelacanth∅!
	2:32pm Linda Lee: hi!
	2:34pm coelacanth∅: hi Linda!
	2:36pm Rich in Washington: It's complicated. Family-of-origin love is easily 50% Stockholm Syndrome
	2:37pm Linda Lee: yes. very complicated. always.
	2:39pm Linda Lee: & there's no automatic relief as the parents depart, as i've found in recent years. surprise!
	2:41pm Stanley: Tony. Friends. Tony's friends Hello.
	2:41pm Rich in Washington: one legendary (in my FoO) tale involving a record was this time were my mom was frustrated in some of my older siblings not getting out of bed for school, so she put on this insipid christmas record - one that she used to play really loud on xmas morning to call us out of bed - really, really loud on the stereo and my older brother and sisters came running downstairs, only to learn of my mom's ruse.
	2:42pm northguineahills: ahh, Kim Gordon....
	2:42pm Rich in Washington: @Linda Lee: I am starting to understand that. I am actually visiting and calling them on the phone more and more frequently as they get on.
	2:42pm Tony Coulter: Stanley! NGH!! Greetings, greetings!
	2:43pm Linda Lee: it's good to do what you feel you should do. don't avoid doing it.
	2:44pm ∅ff the subject for a moment: hey Rich (iW) during your last show you posted (something like) "did David Thomas scare everyone away" and just before you posted that i was trying to post something i don't remember what but it wouldn't post. turns out the internet failed over a fairly broad range for a while that evening. no nothing you played scared me off!
	2:45pm ∅kay, as you were...: (just wanted to make that clear!)
	2:45pm Rich in Washington: oh good! That explains that! I am also aware that I am on a tail end of a long day of programming, so expect that some listener fatigue may set in. I'm grateful anyone listens to my weird little show!
	2:46pm Linda Lee: i like your weird little show! :-)
	2:47pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Linda Lee!
	2:47pm Rich in Washington: I am probably going to expand my show to two hours in October.
	2:47pm Linda Lee: great!!
	2:49pm Linda Lee: the more we see that 'live DJ ' tag the better! it reminds me of the 'live nude girls' signs in old Times Square!
	2:49pm Listening Out There: Ah. So this is the Apple event [settling in]...
	2:49pm Rich in Washington: I wish there were a radio station or stream of just Modern symphonic composers.
	2:50pm Rich in Washington: I really like the Live DJ tag. You're right! It is like a neon sign!
	2:51pm Linda Lee: Live! DJ! Live! DJ! :-D
	2:51pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, L.O.T.!
	2:52pm coelacanth∅: re: your conversation, my father checked out of here last december and i have barely felt a thing. it's kind of where i've gotten to in general, but...it's my father. sometimes quite an asshole but not a full-time ogre by any means. sometimes i start to feel sad and then think about this or that that he was a dick about.
	2:52pm Linda Lee: agree about the modern symphony stream. we do hear some of these works from Bethany on A440 ~ glad to see her back on the schedule.
	2:52pm David D: Hey Tony and all, here's the onward link for the next show: wfmu.org...
	2:53pm Rich in Washington: It's the next best thing to having a ratty character out on the pavement handing out handbills "LIVE DJs! CHECK IT OUT"
	2:53pm Linda Lee: coel, i know where you are with your father. i'm in the same place with my mother. we have to do this our own way.
	2:54pm Linda Lee: @Rich ~ yes, with a sandwich board!
	2:56pm Linda Lee: thanks, Tony!
	2:56pm Rich in Washington: coelacanth∅/Linda Lee: I'm there relatively soon with my father and some kind of memory care is in the very near future for my mother. I just let a lot of past stuff go and lean into my gratitude to them and visit them as often as possible.
	2:56pm Rich in Washington: Great show, Tony! Thanks!
	2:57pm coelacanth∅: re: @2.41 one tale involving a record was the meet the beatles album they bought eventually ended up in the kids' hands and it got a split in it. i figured out i can press it tightly flat and play it anyway. my mother decided i was taking too long to clean my room and my father joined the mob and picked up the record from my desk, saw it was cracked and said you can't play this anyway! i said i can and he said i can't and proceeded to whack it against the desk until it was in bits, and i was hysterical.
	2:57pm Mayuko: Thanks for another great show, Tony!
	2:57pm Linda Lee: wow ..
	2:58pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, everybody! See you next week, I hope!
	2:58pm Rich in Washington: Oh man. That's awful, coelacanth∅!
	2:58pm Linda Lee: i think he was right, actually, but that wasn't helpful behavior.
	2:59pm coelacanth∅: i guess i got tough thanks to them right!
	2:59pm Linda Lee: i tell myself all the time: not everyone is qualified to parent. few really are, most likely.
	2:59pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Tony!
	8:27pm malloo: Today a month later I noticed you will get "The West of Yximalloo 3" within 2019. Thanks!
