	12:11am coelacanth∅: spodi☯
	12:12am Phillippe Bastille: Damn, this good!
	12:12am chresti: I agree the good thing about 2020 has been the music.
	12:13am spodiodi: raisins or no raisins in the biscuits, coelacanthØ?
	12:14am northguineahills: olivia, thanks for keeping the fort down. It's getting below freezing here in Orlando (happens maybe once every 4-5 years), so, I got a hotel room. WFMU, keeping me sane since 1998 when I found it online!

	12:17am mariano: Hey Phillippe.
	12:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I remember Cabaret Voltaire being startling when I 1st heard them.
	12:18am Phillippe Bastille: Yikes, I meant chresti. I either need to get a bigger phone or get off the app
	12:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wull I think I'll leave FMU on & go horizontal in the dark. Wish me luck.
	12:21am northguineahills: Buena Suerte, Rev Rabbit!
	12:22am spodiodi: good luck, RevoRabbit!
	12:23am Ryan: Good luck!!🍀
	12:25am northguineahills: The most awkward moment I ever had in jr high, was when I wore my mom's perfume to try to try impress a cheerleader (she was goth) at a football game (we're still good friends). I was clueless about girls until ..... uhmmm, let me get back on that calculation....
	12:29am Ryan: Goth cheerleaders- v niche
	12:31am northguineahills: @Ryan: She quit here junior year, shave her head, and introduced me to Joy Division, married my best friend, so, I must have done something right.
	12:32am northguineahills: (quit cheerleading).
	12:32am coelacanth∅: spodi i'm not sure what a biscuit really is! i know what we called biscuits growing up, but i think they might've been to real biscuits what american croissants are to real ones. anyway, by what i know, certainly no raisins
	12:32am chresti: Good luck, good sleep, RRN63.
	12:32am coelacanth∅: greetings Phillippe
	12:33am northguineahills: (and she was the captain) (just talked w/ her, so I have a flood of memories).
	12:33am Richy4619: ヽ(⌐■_■)ノ♪♬
	12:34am diciassette: I remember something about a rubber biscuit, but I'm not sure where that's even coming from
	12:34am Ryan: Half man/Half biscuit
	12:35am Ryan: Northguinea, I think we all have a special place in our hearts for the person who first made us appreciate joy division. She sounds rad
	12:36am coelacanth∅: diciassette whatd'ya want for nothin"?
	12:36am northguineahills: What side of the Atlantic you reside, biscuit=doughy buttery leavened bread product, you're in North America. Biscuit = cookie you're in a different continent.
	12:37am Ryan: Ohhh this Romy one is one of my new favies from 2020!!!!
	12:37am coelacanth∅: right, ngh; but also i've got the impression a biscuit in the deep south here is not like what i know, not soft and squishy. am i wrong?
	12:38am diciassette: Ungh ❤️
	12:38am Ryan: Southern biscuits are dense AF
	12:38am northguineahills: @Ryan: Joy Division was the only bumper sticker I ever had, and as an undergrad, I was a noise undergrad, so having a pop band seemed odd to my musician friends.
	12:39am northguineahills: Southern biscuits around here are fluffy, especially if white gravy is involved (I've made my own veggie white gravy w/ biscuits before)
	12:40am coelacanth∅: Ryan that's what i thought
	12:41am northguineahills: (But I grew up in Florigia, which is the weird Deep South) (used to make said biscuit's for brunch in Brooklyn at home, and brunch parties).
	12:43am northguineahills: Everything about this state is weird, and not in an Austin or Portland weird. Even the most liberal town I've lived in (Gainesville), is an anomaly surrounded by rednecks.
	12:43am coelacanth∅: yeah i think florida is different than rural mississippi in many ways. a lot of people don't even think of florida as "the south"... even though, duh
	12:46am Bri The Beatnik: Ahh yes, the person who turned me on to Joy Divison, my first crush
	12:46am coelacanth∅: (rural mississippi -for example; "deep south")
	12:46am northguineahills: North of Orlando (and pockets near Lake Okeechobee), and the panhandle are very deep south. Gainesville is the exception. Once you hit Orlando southwards it mostly changes culturally! Apparat! Saw him live once!
	12:46am Ryan: Florida is a world unto itself for sure. Also, im a born and bred yankee so idk
	12:48am northguineahills: @Bri: The girl that turned me on to JD was close friends w/ me since the 3rd grade, and yes, my first crush.
	12:48am coelacanth∅: yes i've spent relatively little time south of new jersey
	12:49am Ryan: Oof, Camden is enough to make anyone turn around and go back the way they came
	12:50am northguineahills: @Ryan: a certain vexillological comic subreddit I moderate, my tag is, "WV born, Yankee shorn, and Southern torn"...
	12:50am Bri The Beatnik: @NGH Aww I love that! I met my first crush in 9th grade. We bonded over our love for the same music, which was mainly post-punk/punk, and over making mixtapes
	12:51am Ryan: Heck yes @NGH
	12:52am JohnRavioli: More J names Please!!
	12:52am northguineahills: (spent 16 years in Brooklyn, 3 as preteen/teenager in Japan, moved back to the same town afterward, and old best friend hit puberty [I hadn't])
	12:53am Ryan: Those are good places to be as an adolescent (so I’ve heard- I’ve never been to Japan)
	12:53am JohnRavioli: Great set btw!!!
	12:54am coelacanth∅: wfmu turned me on to joy division
	12:54am northguineahills: Grew up in Florida, then moved to Japan, back to FL, then after uni, to Brooklyn... and now here I'm back in FL).
	12:54am Ryan: Coelcanthø no way- I feel like you’re being very tongue in cheek
	12:55am Ryan: That’s a little “it’s my life” sample in there, non?
	12:57am Cp304: crazy, i tune in, this song is on, and I'm watchin a unsoved mystery about chupacabra's.. belated merry christmas all
	12:57am coelacanth∅: Ryan why's that?!
	12:57am Bri The Beatnik: Belated Merry Christmas to you too CP!
	12:57am Ryan: Because I think you’re a cheeky little monkey, coela
	12:58am Cp304: thanks Bri
	12:59am Ryan: No- idk. That’s just surprising and awesome. I’m certainly not throwing shade
	12:59am coelacanth∅: okay i accept that (@1257) - but it doesn't mean i'm never truthful, in fact i'm always truthful except when i'm absurd
	1:01am coelacanth∅: there were some full-on punk shows on fmu back in the day
	1:01am coelacanth∅: (joy division was lumped in)
	1:01am Bri The Beatnik: Gosh I wish I heard those shows
	1:02am Bri The Beatnik: Of course CP!
	1:02am Ryan: I remember! I was a big fan of cherry blossom clinic
	1:03am northguineahills: I've mentioned it before, but I randomly ended up djing w/ martinc moscrop (drummer for A Certain Ratio) once. Nice lad. I nearly plotzed myself when I showed up....
	1:03am coelacanth∅: you know Terre T's on again right? she's on the "rock n soul" stream on wednesdays
	1:04am Bri The Beatnik: Oh yeah I heard her show!
	1:04am Bri The Beatnik: Wow th at’s cool NGH!
	1:05am Ryan: @coela I just learned that within the past couple of weeks and I was so hyped
	1:05am Mon Amie: what bri said! what kind of stuff did you guys play?
	1:06am coelacanth∅: but in the early 80s there was Pat Duncan (who was on all the way into the 00s) and Paul Cavenaugh, who was more playful and than Pat. and threw some political reggae in too. and Diane "Kamakaze" goes back that far
	1:07am northguineahills: I just had a discussion w/ my partner (she's from Mexico), what Boxing Day is and the origins of it.
	1:07am Ryan: Oh I remember pat duncans show! And Diane kamikaze fun machine!
	1:07am Bri The Beatnik: Woah! How long have u been listening to ‘Fmu Coel?
	1:07am Ryan: Those were really great shows
	1:07am coelacanth∅: i have a bunch of cassettes from those days, that's how i know Diane goes back that far!
	1:08am diciassette: ohmygosh radiocassettes
	1:08am northguineahills: @Mon Amie: I played No Wave and Brazilian baile funk. Martin played obscure post-punk and weirdo-awesome house/techno.
	1:09am coelacanth∅: Ryan yeah i miss 'em Bri 1977, then full-time, my main station by 1980
	1:09am Bri The Beatnik: I love that NGH!!
	1:10am Bri The Beatnik: Omg that’s sweet Coel!
	1:10am Ryan: Oh, coela, you are now putting it in context. I didn’t start listening to FMU until about 98 (I was 15). Now it makes sense that you would have first heard joy division on FMU
	1:10am Bri The Beatnik: You’re probably the longest listener in the room Coel!
	1:12am northguineahills: Diane Kamikaze was the second wfmu dj I heard back online in 1998. I used to use my office after school (uni) and use their internet by myself to listen (my own at home would cut out after a few second).
	1:12am northguineahills: (Monica was the first)
	1:13am Ryan: FMU has always been the shit
	1:13am coelacanth∅: not sure, Bri. there are definitely some listeners been tuned in longer than i. they might be listening but not commenting. ...and Phillippe? mariano? a long time,no?
	1:14am Bri The Beatnik: I discovered Wfmu last year, my teacher was telling my friend ( who happened to be the guy who got me into Joy Divison) about it and told him they’d play his band on here
	1:14am Ryan: Was Diane the zorro theme? Where she would stop talking perfectly when the knife chop sound effect hit every time?
	1:15am coelacanth∅: haha yeah Ryan she's a pro! Bri what's that band name?
	1:16am Ryan: That’s what’s up, bri!
	1:16am coelacanth∅: (like Scott Williams and his loud bed music. he times his monologue to it!)
	1:17am northguineahills: @Ryan: Yes, and Yes. @Bri: I read an article in The Wire that said WFMU was streaming ( I was at UF). couldn't get it to work at home, so, I volunteered to stay late alone at the office just to listen. I was blown away (the formerly decent college station was sold to Clear Channel) I also got into my friends' pirate radio at the time.
	1:18am Ryan: HAHAHA. I’m so grateful for WFMU. I’m so grateful for mon Amie. I’m so grateful for all of you! <3<3<3
	1:18am Bri The Beatnik: The band was called YeahDude they were a psychedelic punk band, but they broke up. He’s in another band now called Conformer and has a solo project called Leadsnort
	1:19am Bri The Beatnik: Woah that’s dope NGH!
	1:19am Ryan: This Moby one is so good-I didn’t realize this was a new one
	1:20am coelacanth∅: i've been liking this new Moby!
	1:20am Bri The Beatnik: He was also the guy I was talking about being in bands with Thursday Coel. Even though all of them fell through.
	1:20am Ryan: We would drive around Brooklyn and Staten Island Chain smoking and drinking coffee 🙄 and listening to FMU
	1:21am northguineahills: Another weird story, I was djing on 2nd Ave, and Moby and friends showed up and started playing poker, he complimented me on playing David Tudor....
	1:21am northguineahills: Ryan is full of great ideas....
	1:21am coelacanth∅: i put that together Bri! i don't see yeahdude on the fmu playlist search, but who knows. it could've been entered differently.
	1:21am Bri The Beatnik: Wow that’s cool NGH
	1:22am Ryan: I’m on lexapro and weed- I’m unstoppable NGH
	1:22am Bri The Beatnik: I don’t think they actually ever played them on FMU sadly
	1:22am Bri The Beatnik: Dang, I’m on lexapro too but sadly not on weed
	1:23am Ryan: ::highest of fives::
	1:23am northguineahills: I ran out of my edibles, but I have whiskey I got myself for xmas!
	1:24am Ryan: Get thowed, my friend
	1:24am Bri The Beatnik: Nice!
	1:24am Bri The Beatnik: YeahDude is in Bandcamp tho
	1:24am coelacanth∅: i have herb but it's a strain that gets me thinking all night so... just whiskey.
	1:25am coelacanth∅: i'll check it out Bri
	1:26am Bri The Beatnik: Sweet Coel!
	1:26am Richy4619: I wanna thank weed for fixing my brain/body in 2020 and beyond. let's go ...
	1:27am Bri The Beatnik: Nice! I was afraid weed messsd up my brain
	1:27am Ryan: Fuck yes Richy
	1:27am northguineahills: edibles are the only reason I've gotten any sleep in 2020. Digging the Gidge....
	1:28am Ryan: Tambien y tambien NGH
	1:28am Bri The Beatnik: 2020 was the year I started smoking
	1:30am Ryan: 🚨PEW🚨PEW🚨PEW🚨 BOSSSSSSSSS DEEEEEEEEEJAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
	1:30am northguineahills: internet sucks en este hotel, que chinga!
	1:31am Ryan: No mms guey
	1:31am Bri The Beatnik: NGH, did they have a listener comment board when you first discovered WFMU?
	1:32am northguineahills: @Bri: I don't believe that came about until 2008.
	1:33am Bri The Beatnik: @NGH ok
	1:33am coelacanth∅: < awesome album cover
	1:33am northguineahills: yeahdude here: sorry, shitty internet....: bandcamp.com...
	1:34am Bri The Beatnik: Noo! That’s not them!
	1:35am northguineahills: couldn't see it. wfmu is the only page working for me right now.
	1:35am Bri The Beatnik: yorpedrecords.bandcamp.com... Here’s YeahDude
	1:36am Bri The Beatnik: I forgot, they’re not on BandCamp as YeahDude so it’s hard to find, but their other album is NOLID
	1:37am Bri The Beatnik: skizmsound.bandcamp.com...
	1:38am coelacanth∅: ngh looks like early 2007 on the comments boards (2000 or 2001 for playlists, which you might be able to comment on now!) i didn't start using the internet 'till i think 2011
	1:38am Ryan: This Martin gore 🔥🔥🔥
	1:39am Bri The Beatnik: These drums!!!
	1:40am northguineahills: I remember just looking at the playlists in 2000 (i had dj friends at wfmu when I first moved up there), in b/tn grad school classes, just to absorb musicians I never heard of and look them up later. (I've been on some form of internet since 1989 when I was in the 8th grade).
	1:42am coelacanth∅: it's funny to think that in 2008 i still had no intention to ever use computers for anything
	1:42am northguineahills: Gonna have to reboot... be back....
	1:43am Richy4619: WFMU.org is by far my best find of 2020. Idk when it was but around the first Shelter-In-Place order here... ヽ(⌐■_■)ノ♪♬ 🙏
	1:43am coelacanth∅: so Bri nolid is the same band as yeahdude?
	1:45am Bri The Beatnik: This makes me wanna put my strobe lights on
	1:45am BH: the alternating color LED lighting on my speaker is enjoying this track
	1:45am Bri The Beatnik: Nolid was the name of their album, but he put it up as if it was the name of the band
	1:45am diciassette: I'm going to have to flick the light switch off and on
	1:46am Bri The Beatnik: I didn’t know there was internet in 1989
	1:48am diciassette: There was some movie about kids on the internet starting a nuclear war in the 80s. Totally over my head.
	1:49am Ike: Sounds great!
	1:49am Bri The Beatnik: Oh yeah I think I saw that movie when I was a kid!
	1:50am diciassette: Porridge Radio from Brighton! Adorable.
	1:50am Ryan: 👑👑👑
	1:51am Bri The Beatnik: This doesn’t sound like Erasure
	1:51am Bri The Beatnik: Like the music does, but not the voices
	1:51am Ryan: They’re grown up now, Bri
	1:51am Bri The Beatnik: True
	1:52am diciassette: It sounds like Erasure with some milage, yes?
	1:52am Ryan: Honestly, feeling TF out of this one
	🥀 1:53am Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Mon Amie and Amieliennes.

	1:55am Ryan: @diciassette 🤜🤛🤝 lessagoooooooooo
	1:56am Ryan: Bri: alphabet city goth landmark.!
	1:57am Bri The Beatnik: @Ryan sounds great!
	1:58am Ryan: This show is bananas
	1:59am northguineahills: Back online! I slept an avg of 12 hrs the last 3 nights after a month of 3-4 hrs., so, I might be up for a while. And cthulhu damnit, I have whiskey!
	1:59am Ryan: BH- what’s up with those cats?
	2:00am Ryan: NGH- we support you!!!
	2:01am northguineahills: Damn, missed Erasure. When I worked for the Dept of Commerce, the work xmas gift I got from boss, was when he allowed us to pick a cd (he probably got from the bargain bin), and there was an Erasure CD)
	2:01am diciassette: I have whiskey, but I know better! And I support you too! I'll just be drinking gin.
	2:04am Ryan: That roisin murphy is very early 90s rnb a la cece peniston and Toni braxton and I love it
	2:04am northguineahills: My life lately has been a rube goldberg machine of murphy's law....

	2:07am Ryan: GN Spodiodi-happy new year
	2:07am coelacanth∅: g'night spodi
	2:07am northguineahills: all of my female friends dragged me to see Jarvis dj in 2002. It was so crowded I couldn't even see him. None of the music stayed in my brain but it was fun..... oyanasuminasai, spodi-san!
	2:08am spodiodi: hny! see ya soon, coelacanth
	2:08am Ryan: Darren is a mensch
	2:09am Ryan: That sounds like a good time NGH
	2:11am diciassette: My friend makes me listen to Jarvis Cocker while I keep trying to put on Julian Cope. We never fight about Luke Haines
	2:12am Ryan: Diciassette that was almost a haiku and it was beautiful
	2:12am northguineahills: I once saw JD (from Le Tigre) was djing, but at a hardcore lesbian club that didn't allow cisstraightmales. Luckily, I had a bunch of lesbian friends who vouched for me. I explained, I was just there for the music, and I wouldn't cause trouble. After 30 mins, the manager finally let me in. It was a great night, and got to hang out w/ JD.
	2:12am Ryan: Oh fuck this song is unreal
	2:12am diciassette: Good grief if I'd only spent a little more time on it
	2:13am Mon Amie: lol i have a story too - i saw jarvis do a performance at the whitney as relaxed muscle, and it was around halloween and he gave me a handful of chocolate as part of the performance and it was the greatest moment ever. except i lost the chocolate in the backseat of the cab ride back to brooklyn :(
	2:13am northguineahills: Didn't sheilab play one song off of this album?
	2:13am Bri The Beatnik: I’ve been listening to a lot of Pulp lately
	2:14am diciassette: Orange Juice!
	2:14am Bri The Beatnik: Woah that’s cool Mon Amie!
	2:14am northguineahills: (SAULT) Never stopped listening to Pulp. I've been looking for a dance night that would play Pulp for over a decade....
	2:14am Ryan: Diciassette!!!!! You’re on some James Joyce shit rn
	2:14am Bri The Beatnik: You can’t have Pulp without the Orange Juice!
	2:15am Bri The Beatnik: Please NGH!
	2:15am diciassette: As I like to say "Orange Juice with lots of Pulp!"
	2:15am Bri The Beatnik: I had a night last week where I listened to Orange Juice and then Pulp afterwards
	2:16am Ryan: That sault track reaches all the way in there, doesn’t it?
	2:16am northguineahills: bleeding hell, new Massive Attack!
	2:17am Ryan: “”””””””” NGH you took the words Out of my mouth
	2:17am Bri The Beatnik: This doesn’t sound like Massive attack at all!!
	2:19am Ryan: I feel like conflict could have made this
	2:19am northguineahills: Trying to regain my Japanese linguistic skills. Watching Japanese movies/series in my offtime. My partner reminded me it's been 31 years since I lived there and was fluent (I was a kid).
	2:19am Ryan: (The massive attack one)
	2:21am Bri The Beatnik: I’m not familiar with conflict
	2:25am Ryan: Crusty anarcho/nihilist punk band
	2:26am Ryan: Angel Olsen x Mark Ronson 🔥🔥🔥🔥
	2:26am diciassette: ngh, I almost said oyasuminasai ! I have been watching Midnight Diner lately. It really gets to me. I am not sure where I got my thing about Japanese from. Possibly from things in Hawaii that I don't remember
	2:26am coelacanth∅: been digging Angel Olsen this past year guess i was late getting into her
	2:27am diciassette: Holy smokes, coela. Shut up, kiss me, and hold me tight (that was a hint, not a suggestion)
	2:28am diciassette: I am glad to see Alison Mosshart is still kicking around.
	2:29am Bri The Beatnik: There’s something about when you’re high and music sounds like it’s coming out of a tunnel
	2:30am Hubig Pie: Pops smoked Winston's with the window cracked. Us kids in the back of the wagon with the hound dog rolling around untethered
	2:32am coelacanth∅: haha diciassette i had to look that up. from one of the 2 albums i haven't heard
	2:32am Ryan: Bri: santo and Johnny “sleepwalk”
	2:33am Ryan: All the feels right now
	2:33am Bri The Beatnik: Ryan: Yes!!
	2:34am coelacanth∅: my parents didn't roll the windows down. i think i was smoking a pack and a half/day by throughout my childhood
	2:35am Hubig Pie: Dreamy sounds for dream time
	2:35am diciassette: I've been addicted to nicotine since I was five
	2:36am coelacanth∅: < and i want that buick special
	2:36am northguineahills: @diciassette: There was an an awesome album of Japanese Hawaiians that came out in 2000. It's called Club Nisei (second generation Japanese-Hawaiians). Here it is!: www.cduniverse.com...
	2:36am diciassette: thank you ngh!
	2:38am northguineahills: RIP Harold Budd I think I'll make it to the end of your show Mon Amie. Then I might turn in, before I turn oneiric, let me give you thanks, y feliz ano nuevo!
	2:38am diciassette: Let's all get oneiric!
	2:40am coelacanth∅: merrily merrily merrily merrily
	2:40am northguineahills: had to text my partner what oneiric was en espanol: onirica, duh!, should have guessed!
	2:41am diciassette: Of course because all the best words are "vulgar latin," of course
	2:43am diciassette: 64.media.tumblr.com...
	2:43am Mon Amie: poor darren - played so many lullabies leading into his show. but i was a big fan of ambient more than usual this year.
	2:44am diciassette: He'll wake us up for sure.
	2:44am Bri The Beatnik: That album cover looks like Morissey drowning
	2:44am coelacanth∅: if the eskimos have 75,000 words for snow, as of course they do, i wonder if any world cultures have a disproportionately large number of words for dream states and such
	2:46am coelacanth∅: di i had to turn that off. she caught me looking at her and i was afraid i'd distract her from her driving
	2:48am BH: feeling some "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" energy here
	2:49am coelacanth∅: - contact -
	2:49am northguineahills: ambient music is how I got into avant garde/noise/improv.
	2:50am northguineahills: linguistic studies is important as it gives better subjective understandings of epistemological understanding of "reality".
	2:51am diciassette: There are not very many words in Cantonese, so they have to rely a lot on context and particles and metaphors. I think there are a lot of expressions involving tofu and where you should put it.
	2:51am diciassette: But I think I love it.
	2:53am Ryan: There’s a sample in here from the dancehall “if I was a rich girl” and that shit was UBIQUITOUS when I was like 12
	2:55am coelacanth∅: right. i think the single-syllable cantonese word for "curd that guilos think we all eat" also means "stick that tofu where the sun don't shine" - depending on context.
	2:56am diciassette: Isn't it wonderful!
	2:56am Ryan: Mon Amie- thank you so much for another amazing show and for being a bright spot in this bleeeeeeeak year HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Mes ami(e)s- HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! I like saturdays with you guys :) thank you all for being you!
	2:56am coelacanth∅: haha!
	2:57am northguineahills: oh, Zarasthura Mexican Spanish is nothing more then regional slang and euphemisms. I understand the individual words, but not the context most of the time.
	2:57am coelacanth∅: Cheers Ryan!
	2:58am dan in wisconsin: Cool show Mon Amie! Thank you.
	2:58am coelacanth∅: Thanks Mon Amie! Thanks board op...Darren? take care y'all good night
	2:58am diciassette: Hai gam sin?
	3:00am Mon Amie: tonight went by fast mes amis! thank you all for spending your saturday night here...this truly is the highlight of my week / year. til next time!
	3:00am coelacanth∅: sinner
	3:00am coelacanth∅: (hai gam sinner)

	3:02am diciassette: jao la!

	12:10am olivia: Lmao nooo northguineahillss now i hear it too

	12:11am northguineahills: Ryan said what we're all feeling!
	12:11am coelacanth∅: spodi☯
	12:12am Phillippe Bastille: Damn, this good!
	12:12am chresti: I agree the good thing about 2020 has been the music.
	12:13am spodiodi: raisins or no raisins in the biscuits, coelacanthØ?
	12:14am northguineahills: olivia, thanks for keeping the fort down. It's getting below freezing here in Orlando (happens maybe once every 4-5 years), so, I got a hotel room. WFMU, keeping me sane since 1998 when I found it online!
	12:14am chresti: spodi\\//
	12:14am Phillippe Bastille: Hey spodi, Mariano, chesti, coela-cola
	12:14am Ryan: Tr*mp/Fauci have a writing credit on every album that came out in 2020
	12:15am chresti: Heyyy Phillippe
	12:15am spodiodi: \\//chresti aloha, Phillippe
	12:16am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& every album that never will...
	12:17am mariano: Hey Phillippe.
	12:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I remember Cabaret Voltaire being startling when I 1st heard them.
	12:18am Phillippe Bastille: Yikes, I meant chresti. I either need to get a bigger phone or get off the app
	12:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wull I think I'll leave FMU on & go horizontal in the dark. Wish me luck.
	12:21am northguineahills: Buena Suerte, Rev Rabbit!
	12:22am spodiodi: good luck, RevoRabbit!
	12:23am Ryan: Good luck!!🍀
	12:25am northguineahills: The most awkward moment I ever had in jr high, was when I wore my mom's perfume to try to try impress a cheerleader (she was goth) at a football game (we're still good friends). I was clueless about girls until ..... uhmmm, let me get back on that calculation....
	12:29am Ryan: Goth cheerleaders- v niche
	12:31am northguineahills: @Ryan: She quit here junior year, shave her head, and introduced me to Joy Division, married my best friend, so, I must have done something right.
	12:32am northguineahills: (quit cheerleading).
	12:32am coelacanth∅: spodi i'm not sure what a biscuit really is! i know what we called biscuits growing up, but i think they might've been to real biscuits what american croissants are to real ones. anyway, by what i know, certainly no raisins
	12:32am chresti: Good luck, good sleep, RRN63.
	12:32am coelacanth∅: greetings Phillippe
	12:33am northguineahills: (and she was the captain) (just talked w/ her, so I have a flood of memories).
	12:33am Richy4619: ヽ(⌐■_■)ノ♪♬
	12:34am diciassette: I remember something about a rubber biscuit, but I'm not sure where that's even coming from
	12:34am Ryan: Half man/Half biscuit
	12:35am Ryan: Northguinea, I think we all have a special place in our hearts for the person who first made us appreciate joy division. She sounds rad
	12:36am coelacanth∅: diciassette whatd'ya want for nothin"?
	12:36am northguineahills: What side of the Atlantic you reside, biscuit=doughy buttery leavened bread product, you're in North America. Biscuit = cookie you're in a different continent.
	12:37am Ryan: Ohhh this Romy one is one of my new favies from 2020!!!!
	12:37am coelacanth∅: right, ngh; but also i've got the impression a biscuit in the deep south here is not like what i know, not soft and squishy. am i wrong?
	12:38am diciassette: Ungh ❤️
	12:38am Ryan: Southern biscuits are dense AF
	12:38am northguineahills: @Ryan: Joy Division was the only bumper sticker I ever had, and as an undergrad, I was a noise undergrad, so having a pop band seemed odd to my musician friends.
	12:39am northguineahills: Southern biscuits around here are fluffy, especially if white gravy is involved (I've made my own veggie white gravy w/ biscuits before)
	12:40am coelacanth∅: Ryan that's what i thought
	12:41am northguineahills: (But I grew up in Florigia, which is the weird Deep South) (used to make said biscuit's for brunch in Brooklyn at home, and brunch parties).
	12:43am northguineahills: Everything about this state is weird, and not in an Austin or Portland weird. Even the most liberal town I've lived in (Gainesville), is an anomaly surrounded by rednecks.
	12:43am coelacanth∅: yeah i think florida is different than rural mississippi in many ways. a lot of people don't even think of florida as "the south"... even though, duh
	12:46am Bri The Beatnik: Ahh yes, the person who turned me on to Joy Divison, my first crush
	12:46am coelacanth∅: (rural mississippi -for example; "deep south")
	12:46am northguineahills: North of Orlando (and pockets near Lake Okeechobee), and the panhandle are very deep south. Gainesville is the exception. Once you hit Orlando southwards it mostly changes culturally! Apparat! Saw him live once!
	12:46am Ryan: Florida is a world unto itself for sure. Also, im a born and bred yankee so idk
	12:48am northguineahills: @Bri: The girl that turned me on to JD was close friends w/ me since the 3rd grade, and yes, my first crush.
	12:48am coelacanth∅: yes i've spent relatively little time south of new jersey
	12:49am Ryan: Oof, Camden is enough to make anyone turn around and go back the way they came
	12:50am northguineahills: @Ryan: a certain vexillological comic subreddit I moderate, my tag is, "WV born, Yankee shorn, and Southern torn"...
	12:50am Bri The Beatnik: @NGH Aww I love that! I met my first crush in 9th grade. We bonded over our love for the same music, which was mainly post-punk/punk, and over making mixtapes
	12:51am Ryan: Heck yes @NGH
	12:52am JohnRavioli: More J names Please!!
	12:52am northguineahills: (spent 16 years in Brooklyn, 3 as preteen/teenager in Japan, moved back to the same town afterward, and old best friend hit puberty [I hadn't])
	12:53am Ryan: Those are good places to be as an adolescent (so I’ve heard- I’ve never been to Japan)
	12:53am JohnRavioli: Great set btw!!!
	12:54am coelacanth∅: wfmu turned me on to joy division
	12:54am northguineahills: Grew up in Florida, then moved to Japan, back to FL, then after uni, to Brooklyn... and now here I'm back in FL).
	12:54am Ryan: Coelcanthø no way- I feel like you’re being very tongue in cheek
	12:55am Ryan: That’s a little “it’s my life” sample in there, non?
	12:57am Cp304: crazy, i tune in, this song is on, and I'm watchin a unsoved mystery about chupacabra's.. belated merry christmas all
	12:57am coelacanth∅: Ryan why's that?!
	12:57am Bri The Beatnik: Belated Merry Christmas to you too CP!
	12:57am Ryan: Because I think you’re a cheeky little monkey, coela
	12:58am Cp304: thanks Bri
	12:59am Ryan: No- idk. That’s just surprising and awesome. I’m certainly not throwing shade
	12:59am coelacanth∅: okay i accept that (@1257) - but it doesn't mean i'm never truthful, in fact i'm always truthful except when i'm absurd
	1:01am coelacanth∅: there were some full-on punk shows on fmu back in the day
	1:01am coelacanth∅: (joy division was lumped in)
	1:01am Bri The Beatnik: Gosh I wish I heard those shows
	1:02am Bri The Beatnik: Of course CP!
	1:02am Ryan: I remember! I was a big fan of cherry blossom clinic
	1:03am northguineahills: I've mentioned it before, but I randomly ended up djing w/ martinc moscrop (drummer for A Certain Ratio) once. Nice lad. I nearly plotzed myself when I showed up....
	1:03am coelacanth∅: you know Terre T's on again right? she's on the "rock n soul" stream on wednesdays
	1:04am Bri The Beatnik: Oh yeah I heard her show!
	1:04am Bri The Beatnik: Wow th at’s cool NGH!
	1:05am Ryan: @coela I just learned that within the past couple of weeks and I was so hyped
	1:05am Mon Amie: what bri said! what kind of stuff did you guys play?
	1:06am coelacanth∅: but in the early 80s there was Pat Duncan (who was on all the way into the 00s) and Paul Cavenaugh, who was more playful and than Pat. and threw some political reggae in too. and Diane "Kamakaze" goes back that far
	1:07am northguineahills: I just had a discussion w/ my partner (she's from Mexico), what Boxing Day is and the origins of it.
	1:07am Ryan: Oh I remember pat duncans show! And Diane kamikaze fun machine!
	1:07am Bri The Beatnik: Woah! How long have u been listening to ‘Fmu Coel?
	1:07am Ryan: Those were really great shows
	1:07am coelacanth∅: i have a bunch of cassettes from those days, that's how i know Diane goes back that far!
	1:08am diciassette: ohmygosh radiocassettes
	1:08am northguineahills: @Mon Amie: I played No Wave and Brazilian baile funk. Martin played obscure post-punk and weirdo-awesome house/techno.
	1:09am coelacanth∅: Ryan yeah i miss 'em Bri 1977, then full-time, my main station by 1980
	1:09am Bri The Beatnik: I love that NGH!!
	1:10am Bri The Beatnik: Omg that’s sweet Coel!
	1:10am Ryan: Oh, coela, you are now putting it in context. I didn’t start listening to FMU until about 98 (I was 15). Now it makes sense that you would have first heard joy division on FMU
	1:10am Bri The Beatnik: You’re probably the longest listener in the room Coel!
	1:12am northguineahills: Diane Kamikaze was the second wfmu dj I heard back online in 1998. I used to use my office after school (uni) and use their internet by myself to listen (my own at home would cut out after a few second).
	1:12am northguineahills: (Monica was the first)
	1:13am Ryan: FMU has always been the shit
	1:13am coelacanth∅: not sure, Bri. there are definitely some listeners been tuned in longer than i. they might be listening but not commenting. ...and Phillippe? mariano? a long time,no?
	1:14am Bri The Beatnik: I discovered Wfmu last year, my teacher was telling my friend ( who happened to be the guy who got me into Joy Divison) about it and told him they’d play his band on here
	1:14am Ryan: Was Diane the zorro theme? Where she would stop talking perfectly when the knife chop sound effect hit every time?
	1:15am coelacanth∅: haha yeah Ryan she's a pro! Bri what's that band name?
	1:16am Ryan: That’s what’s up, bri!
	1:16am coelacanth∅: (like Scott Williams and his loud bed music. he times his monologue to it!)
	1:17am northguineahills: @Ryan: Yes, and Yes. @Bri: I read an article in The Wire that said WFMU was streaming ( I was at UF). couldn't get it to work at home, so, I volunteered to stay late alone at the office just to listen. I was blown away (the formerly decent college station was sold to Clear Channel) I also got into my friends' pirate radio at the time.
	1:18am Ryan: HAHAHA. I’m so grateful for WFMU. I’m so grateful for mon Amie. I’m so grateful for all of you! <3<3<3
	1:18am Bri The Beatnik: The band was called YeahDude they were a psychedelic punk band, but they broke up. He’s in another band now called Conformer and has a solo project called Leadsnort
	1:19am Bri The Beatnik: Woah that’s dope NGH!
	1:19am Ryan: This Moby one is so good-I didn’t realize this was a new one
	1:20am coelacanth∅: i've been liking this new Moby!
	1:20am Bri The Beatnik: He was also the guy I was talking about being in bands with Thursday Coel. Even though all of them fell through.
	1:20am Ryan: We would drive around Brooklyn and Staten Island Chain smoking and drinking coffee 🙄 and listening to FMU
	1:21am northguineahills: Another weird story, I was djing on 2nd Ave, and Moby and friends showed up and started playing poker, he complimented me on playing David Tudor....
	1:21am northguineahills: Ryan is full of great ideas....
	1:21am coelacanth∅: i put that together Bri! i don't see yeahdude on the fmu playlist search, but who knows. it could've been entered differently.
	1:21am Bri The Beatnik: Wow that’s cool NGH
	1:22am Ryan: I’m on lexapro and weed- I’m unstoppable NGH
	1:22am Bri The Beatnik: I don’t think they actually ever played them on FMU sadly
	1:22am Bri The Beatnik: Dang, I’m on lexapro too but sadly not on weed
	1:23am Ryan: ::highest of fives::
	1:23am northguineahills: I ran out of my edibles, but I have whiskey I got myself for xmas!
	1:24am Ryan: Get thowed, my friend
	1:24am Bri The Beatnik: Nice!
	1:24am Bri The Beatnik: YeahDude is in Bandcamp tho
	1:24am coelacanth∅: i have herb but it's a strain that gets me thinking all night so... just whiskey.
	1:25am coelacanth∅: i'll check it out Bri
	1:26am Bri The Beatnik: Sweet Coel!
	1:26am Richy4619: I wanna thank weed for fixing my brain/body in 2020 and beyond. let's go ...
	1:27am Bri The Beatnik: Nice! I was afraid weed messsd up my brain
	1:27am Ryan: Fuck yes Richy
	1:27am northguineahills: edibles are the only reason I've gotten any sleep in 2020. Digging the Gidge....
	1:28am Ryan: Tambien y tambien NGH
	1:28am Bri The Beatnik: 2020 was the year I started smoking
	1:30am Ryan: 🚨PEW🚨PEW🚨PEW🚨 BOSSSSSSSSS DEEEEEEEEEJAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
	1:30am northguineahills: internet sucks en este hotel, que chinga!
	1:31am Ryan: No mms guey
	1:31am Bri The Beatnik: NGH, did they have a listener comment board when you first discovered WFMU?
	1:32am northguineahills: @Bri: I don't believe that came about until 2008.
	1:33am Bri The Beatnik: @NGH ok
	1:33am coelacanth∅: < awesome album cover
	1:33am northguineahills: yeahdude here: sorry, shitty internet....: bandcamp.com...
	1:34am Bri The Beatnik: Noo! That’s not them!
	1:35am northguineahills: couldn't see it. wfmu is the only page working for me right now.
	1:35am Bri The Beatnik: yorpedrecords.bandcamp.com... Here’s YeahDude
	1:36am Bri The Beatnik: I forgot, they’re not on BandCamp as YeahDude so it’s hard to find, but their other album is NOLID
	1:37am Bri The Beatnik: skizmsound.bandcamp.com...
	1:38am coelacanth∅: ngh looks like early 2007 on the comments boards (2000 or 2001 for playlists, which you might be able to comment on now!) i didn't start using the internet 'till i think 2011
	1:38am Ryan: This Martin gore 🔥🔥🔥
	1:39am Bri The Beatnik: These drums!!!
	1:40am northguineahills: I remember just looking at the playlists in 2000 (i had dj friends at wfmu when I first moved up there), in b/tn grad school classes, just to absorb musicians I never heard of and look them up later. (I've been on some form of internet since 1989 when I was in the 8th grade).
	1:42am coelacanth∅: it's funny to think that in 2008 i still had no intention to ever use computers for anything
	1:42am northguineahills: Gonna have to reboot... be back....
	1:43am Richy4619: WFMU.org is by far my best find of 2020. Idk when it was but around the first Shelter-In-Place order here... ヽ(⌐■_■)ノ♪♬ 🙏
	1:43am coelacanth∅: so Bri nolid is the same band as yeahdude?
	1:45am Bri The Beatnik: This makes me wanna put my strobe lights on
	1:45am BH: the alternating color LED lighting on my speaker is enjoying this track
	1:45am Bri The Beatnik: Nolid was the name of their album, but he put it up as if it was the name of the band
	1:45am diciassette: I'm going to have to flick the light switch off and on
	1:46am Bri The Beatnik: I didn’t know there was internet in 1989
	1:48am diciassette: There was some movie about kids on the internet starting a nuclear war in the 80s. Totally over my head.
	1:49am Ike: Sounds great!
	1:49am Bri The Beatnik: Oh yeah I think I saw that movie when I was a kid!
	1:50am diciassette: Porridge Radio from Brighton! Adorable.
	1:50am Ryan: 👑👑👑
	1:51am Bri The Beatnik: This doesn’t sound like Erasure
	1:51am Bri The Beatnik: Like the music does, but not the voices
	1:51am Ryan: They’re grown up now, Bri
	1:51am Bri The Beatnik: True

	1:59am Ryan: BH- what’s up with those cats?
	2:00am Ryan: NGH- we support you!!!
	2:01am northguineahills: Damn, missed Erasure. When I worked for the Dept of Commerce, the work xmas gift I got from boss, was when he allowed us to pick a cd (he probably got from the bargain bin), and there was an Erasure CD)
	2:01am diciassette: I have whiskey, but I know better! And I support you too! I'll just be drinking gin.
	2:04am Ryan: That roisin murphy is very early 90s rnb a la cece peniston and Toni braxton and I love it
	2:04am northguineahills: My life lately has been a rube goldberg machine of murphy's law....

	2:07am coelacanth∅: g'night spodi
	2:07am northguineahills: all of my female friends dragged me to see Jarvis dj in 2002. It was so crowded I couldn't even see him. None of the music stayed in my brain but it was fun..... oyanasuminasai, spodi-san!
	2:08am spodiodi: hny! see ya soon, coelacanth
	2:08am Ryan: Darren is a mensch
	2:09am Ryan: That sounds like a good time NGH
	2:11am diciassette: My friend makes me listen to Jarvis Cocker while I keep trying to put on Julian Cope. We never fight about Luke Haines
	2:12am Ryan: Diciassette that was almost a haiku and it was beautiful
	2:12am northguineahills: I once saw JD (from Le Tigre) was djing, but at a hardcore lesbian club that didn't allow cisstraightmales. Luckily, I had a bunch of lesbian friends who vouched for me. I explained, I was just there for the music, and I wouldn't cause trouble. After 30 mins, the manager finally let me in. It was a great night, and got to hang out w/ JD.
	2:12am Ryan: Oh fuck this song is unreal
	2:12am diciassette: Good grief if I'd only spent a little more time on it
	2:13am Mon Amie: lol i have a story too - i saw jarvis do a performance at the whitney as relaxed muscle, and it was around halloween and he gave me a handful of chocolate as part of the performance and it was the greatest moment ever. except i lost the chocolate in the backseat of the cab ride back to brooklyn :(
	2:13am northguineahills: Didn't sheilab play one song off of this album?
	2:13am Bri The Beatnik: I’ve been listening to a lot of Pulp lately
	2:14am diciassette: Orange Juice!
	2:14am Bri The Beatnik: Woah that’s cool Mon Amie!
	2:14am northguineahills: (SAULT) Never stopped listening to Pulp. I've been looking for a dance night that would play Pulp for over a decade....
	2:14am Ryan: Diciassette!!!!! You’re on some James Joyce shit rn
	2:14am Bri The Beatnik: You can’t have Pulp without the Orange Juice!
	2:15am Bri The Beatnik: Please NGH!
	2:15am diciassette: As I like to say "Orange Juice with lots of Pulp!"
	2:15am Bri The Beatnik: I had a night last week where I listened to Orange Juice and then Pulp afterwards
	2:16am Ryan: That sault track reaches all the way in there, doesn’t it?
	2:16am northguineahills: bleeding hell, new Massive Attack!
	2:17am Ryan: “”””””””” NGH you took the words Out of my mouth
	2:17am Bri The Beatnik: This doesn’t sound like Massive attack at all!!
	2:19am Ryan: I feel like conflict could have made this
	2:19am northguineahills: Trying to regain my Japanese linguistic skills. Watching Japanese movies/series in my offtime. My partner reminded me it's been 31 years since I lived there and was fluent (I was a kid).
	2:19am Ryan: (The massive attack one)
	2:21am Bri The Beatnik: I’m not familiar with conflict
	2:25am Ryan: Crusty anarcho/nihilist punk band
	2:26am Ryan: Angel Olsen x Mark Ronson 🔥🔥🔥🔥
	2:26am diciassette: ngh, I almost said oyasuminasai ! I have been watching Midnight Diner lately. It really gets to me. I am not sure where I got my thing about Japanese from. Possibly from things in Hawaii that I don't remember
	2:26am coelacanth∅: been digging Angel Olsen this past year guess i was late getting into her
	2:27am diciassette: Holy smokes, coela. Shut up, kiss me, and hold me tight (that was a hint, not a suggestion)
	2:28am diciassette: I am glad to see Alison Mosshart is still kicking around.
	2:29am Bri The Beatnik: There’s something about when you’re high and music sounds like it’s coming out of a tunnel
	2:30am Hubig Pie: Pops smoked Winston's with the window cracked. Us kids in the back of the wagon with the hound dog rolling around untethered
	2:32am coelacanth∅: haha diciassette i had to look that up. from one of the 2 albums i haven't heard
	2:32am Ryan: Bri: santo and Johnny “sleepwalk”
	2:33am Ryan: All the feels right now
	2:33am Bri The Beatnik: Ryan: Yes!!
	2:34am coelacanth∅: my parents didn't roll the windows down. i think i was smoking a pack and a half/day by throughout my childhood
	2:35am Hubig Pie: Dreamy sounds for dream time
	2:35am diciassette: I've been addicted to nicotine since I was five
	2:36am coelacanth∅: < and i want that buick special
	2:36am northguineahills: @diciassette: There was an an awesome album of Japanese Hawaiians that came out in 2000. It's called Club Nisei (second generation Japanese-Hawaiians). Here it is!: www.cduniverse.com...
	2:36am diciassette: thank you ngh!
	2:38am northguineahills: RIP Harold Budd I think I'll make it to the end of your show Mon Amie. Then I might turn in, before I turn oneiric, let me give you thanks, y feliz ano nuevo!
	2:38am diciassette: Let's all get oneiric!
	2:40am coelacanth∅: merrily merrily merrily merrily
	2:40am northguineahills: had to text my partner what oneiric was en espanol: onirica, duh!, should have guessed!
	2:41am diciassette: Of course because all the best words are "vulgar latin," of course
	2:43am diciassette: 64.media.tumblr.com...
	2:43am Mon Amie: poor darren - played so many lullabies leading into his show. but i was a big fan of ambient more than usual this year.
	2:44am diciassette: He'll wake us up for sure.
	2:44am Bri The Beatnik: That album cover looks like Morissey drowning
	2:44am coelacanth∅: if the eskimos have 75,000 words for snow, as of course they do, i wonder if any world cultures have a disproportionately large number of words for dream states and such
	2:46am coelacanth∅: di i had to turn that off. she caught me looking at her and i was afraid i'd distract her from her driving
	2:48am BH: feeling some "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" energy here
	2:49am coelacanth∅: - contact -
	2:49am northguineahills: ambient music is how I got into avant garde/noise/improv.
	2:50am northguineahills: linguistic studies is important as it gives better subjective understandings of epistemological understanding of "reality".
	2:51am diciassette: There are not very many words in Cantonese, so they have to rely a lot on context and particles and metaphors. I think there are a lot of expressions involving tofu and where you should put it.
	2:51am diciassette: But I think I love it.
	2:53am Ryan: There’s a sample in here from the dancehall “if I was a rich girl” and that shit was UBIQUITOUS when I was like 12
	2:55am coelacanth∅: right. i think the single-syllable cantonese word for "curd that guilos think we all eat" also means "stick that tofu where the sun don't shine" - depending on context.
	2:56am diciassette: Isn't it wonderful!
	2:56am Ryan: Mon Amie- thank you so much for another amazing show and for being a bright spot in this bleeeeeeeak year HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Mes ami(e)s- HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! I like saturdays with you guys :) thank you all for being you!
	2:56am coelacanth∅: haha!
	2:57am northguineahills: oh, Zarasthura Mexican Spanish is nothing more then regional slang and euphemisms. I understand the individual words, but not the context most of the time.
	2:57am coelacanth∅: Cheers Ryan!
	2:58am dan in wisconsin: Cool show Mon Amie! Thank you.
