DJ ALF live in studio        DJ ALF - the muthafuckin' man, who not only made the 4:19 theme, four variations on the intro theme to this show, among numerous other turntable based compositions for WFMU, and has guested several times on WFMU already including one web-only show with ALF on turntables and Scott Williams on guitar, -but to be here live for the Marathon took the day off work, drove up from Baltimore, and threw down like crazy off his turntable, mixer, and samples - including doing a live version of the 4:19 theme. And all this he did decked out in his sound-sensored T-shirt keeping beat. Also joining in the mix was co--host Ken who was dropping in samples off his laptop including many of his trademark bits like "Hello Sweden" and Alan Vega going "go go" or "warriors" etc....      0:31:23 (Real)

How much longer, Bryce?!

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 3:04pm From: north guinea hills

HooWooooo! i won the congotronics 2 cd/dvd which rocks since i used to have it on mp3, but my hard drive crashed in october and lost hundreds of albums including that one!

thankewekoochoos!

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 3:04pm From: Sean Daily

Second comment! Woo hoo!

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 3:08pm From: zeno

i don't think they gave away the last $10 present in bryce's show...

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 3:08pm From: Eggplant Parm

That's a good lesson for all of us who might have our best music on the 'puter. Back up Y'all. Got to back that $hit up or you migh be sorry.

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 3:12pm From: north guinea hills

i've recovered about 70% of what i lost thanks to the genteel courtesy of my friends..., yeah, but still... the funny thing is that it died as i was backing it up, it only saved the R-Z artists..........

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 3:15pm From: Jared

Billy Jam... hard as diamonds

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 3:15pm From: iggy plop

ah was astral hiking checked out jam mans last playlist.plse back to wok and woll

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 3:19pm From: Parq

NGH, I had a hard drive die on me too. Lucky thing, I had all the music on an external drive. Now I gotta worry about backing up the G drive.

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 3:22pm From: jonathan

bryce /billy jam transition is genius.

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 3:22pm From: plse waste not life

good songs now i have happiness. Parq u are constant member of circle jerk

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 3:22pm From: north guinea hills

damn parq, great minds fuck up alike.

i second the bryce/billy jam transition!

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 3:23pm From: Eggplant Parm

That's right parq, you can get into this vicious circle of backing up. I buy externals two at a time, and I duct them together and they become twins. I back up to each one the same information. Sounds like a lot of messin' around but...no worries.

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 3:25pm From: PARCQUET

you have nt seen ma face

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 3:31pm From: Patrick

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 4:14pm From: fred

LADY PINK and TOOFLY? That sounds so great, I wish I could see that. And I can say that this book is amazing, so go and pledge people!

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 4:15pm From: Todd 76%

Hey! Billy/ Ken, thx 4 the edIT CD!!!

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 4:15pm From: north guinea hills

i found wfmu when i was living in fla from some article in some music magazine (i forget which) back in 1997, and i found the then tinny stream shortly after.... a few years later i found myself in brooklyn....

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 4:17pm From: Sean Padilla

If my boss didn't allow me to listen to WFMU @ work, I'd have quit my job six months sooner than I did. I turned in my two weeks' notice yesterday, and I will make a pledge as soon as I find new employment!

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 4:17pm From: fishmonkeystew

Ahoy Gents!!

New listener here from Union, CT. Heard about your sweet sweet station about 4 months ago, courtesy of Fark.com. I tuned in to Ken with his tripedelic reverbia and never turned back. Best thing that's happened to me in years!! Warrrrrrioooorrrrrsss!!!!

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 4:18pm From: porkchop

Yeah! DJ ALF rules!

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 4:26pm From: noel (sloane)

I bet that, on some day, Colonel Carl has asked Dusty what time it was when it was 4:19. To have a recording of that would be really groovy if you know what I mean.

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 4:27pm From: north guinea hills

wfmu was on fark?. wtf? how did i miss that? was that from beware of the blog w/ that brian wilson hiphop album thingey?

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 4:32pm From: HotRod

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 5:11pm From: dei x

Fri Feb. 29, 2008 5:14pm From: Sean Daily
