Listening in from Somerville, Massachusetts -Prospect Hill

Sun. 5/25/08 9:13pm From: bethany

Hello Prospect Hill.

Everyone else, it's time to divulge where you are listening from.

Go for it, say hello.

Your friendly host,
bethany

Greenwich, CT. Only an hour away, but still have to pick it up on the internet! Almost got the station driving out of the city earlier, though!

Sun. 5/25/08 9:16pm From: dave

_wow_, i really like this ecstatic sunshine track.

and i'm listening from sunny morristown, NJ, home of racist mayors and nascent bike culture.

Sun. 5/25/08 9:20pm From: Ike

Morristown has a racist mayor? Really? It always seemed so upscale liberal to me. Go figure. I haven't been paying enough attention to the local news.

I'm in Newark, NJ, home of Cory Booker. This Ecstatic Sunshine track is great.

Sun. 5/25/08 9:23pm From: Richard

Hello and Thank You From Reeders, PA

Sun. 5/25/08 9:25pm From: dave

well, it's not clear the mayor's GENUINELY racist so much as willing to compromise in pursuit of political expedience.

and political expedience, in morristown's case, means hating on the immigrants.

Sun. 5/25/08 9:26pm From: dave

it is clear ike and i are a voting bloc on the ecstatic sunshine issue.

Sun. 5/25/08 9:26pm From: Michael

Greetings, and it's nice to be in the room with you.

Well...the same sonic room anyway.

Salut from Clearwater, FL

Sun. 5/25/08 9:28pm From: Michael in Idaho

I am listening to WFMU - what has become the sound of new york and new jersey for me in the past two years. I am listening from Ketchum, Idaho, which is sort of far away, but not really an insurmountable distance or anything like that. That sort of distance is more along the lines of the surface of Mars, which is similar to Idaho in some, but not most ways.

Sun. 5/25/08 9:29pm From: Sean

We are all here riding the radio waves

Sun. 5/25/08 9:30pm From: Joshua (via phone to Bethany)

Listening from Irvington, NY and on FM not online....hence he phoned in...

Sun. 5/25/08 9:35pm From: Kevin

Drifting off in Bedfordshire, England.

Sun. 5/25/08 9:36pm From: Sean

Yes, here we all are

Sun. 5/25/08 9:39pm From: bethany

Y'all are the best.

Did anyone bring snacks?

Sun. 5/25/08 9:42pm From: dave

by the way, if you're still feeling out-of-phase, i've heard any number of straightforward PLL implementations (phase detector, VCO, and amplifier) can be had from your standard component supply houses.

Sun. 5/25/08 9:44pm From: john

I've got currants and almonds. Pretty lame, but I'm down 25 pounds and all my really old clothes fit now. WFMU, free--form, experimental, and dietetic.

Sun. 5/25/08 9:47pm From: bethany

I read an article in the Times that said people who listened to a different radio station every day lost weight and kept it off. I believe - without equivocation - that WFMU is a different radio station every minute. Let me find that link....

Sun. 5/25/08 9:49pm From: dave

freeform: nature's weight-loss miracle!

Sun. 5/25/08 9:50pm From: john

Oh cool, could do before and after WFMU pictures.

Sun. 5/25/08 9:52pm From: ?

Here's a link to that NYTimes article:

Sun. 5/25/08 9:53pm From: dave

to be fair, that article also suggests the japanese technique of 'kaizen', which i'm pretty sure involves riding a fixed-gear track bike in the distance equivalent of the indy 500 while salarymen bet their weekly wages on whether you'll drop dead the exertion or the fugu and dodgy sake you consumed in mass quantities last night.

Sun. 5/25/08 9:55pm From: bethany

Yes, fixed-gear bikes must be the key to my mastery of Kaizen!!

Nice one, Dave. :)

Sun. 5/25/08 9:56pm From: montreal

more so than any other fmu dj, bethany picks tracks which confuse the cat.

Sun. 5/25/08 10:04pm From: dave

confused cats: nature's weight loss miracle!

Sun. 5/25/08 10:05pm From: Down South

Eating oreos - sans milk. This is my freeform diet.

Sun. 5/25/08 10:10pm From: Francisco Torres

Listening from San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Sun. 5/25/08 10:11pm From: john

Cat's asleep in the living room so I couldn't test the theory. I'll just assume it works.

Sun. 5/25/08 10:24pm From: Jeff

I don't have a cat, but this Brant piece is giving me a case of vertigo.

Sun. 5/25/08 10:26pm From: Droll

John, I've seen Confuse-A-Cat on TV and believe me, you'll know if it's working.

Sun. 5/25/08 10:28pm From: john

Droll,

She's here now, and looking vaguely confused. Wish I could link a picture I just took.

Sun. 5/25/08 10:33pm From: dave

it's a credit to this set that i can't entirely tell where one piece ends and the next starts.

Sun. 5/25/08 10:34pm From: dave

(that said, who's sunken, and how do i get more of that?)

Sun. 5/25/08 10:38pm From: Ike

My cat's not even remotely confused by this, but then, she has grown up with FMU.

Alan Licht, eh? Cool.

Sun. 5/25/08 10:39pm From: bethany

all of the sunken info is filled in on the playlist now...they're new to me, as is the label.

Sun. 5/25/08 10:42pm From: dave

thanks! i got one step ahead when you said "eye electric organ". i am, as the kids say, in the process of breaking myself off a piece of that.

Sun. 5/25/08 10:46pm From: bethany

No guesses on this one?

Sun. 5/25/08 10:47pm From: Willy Voet

the Moglass

Sun. 5/25/08 10:49pm From: bethany

Yes, Willy. Correct.

Does that mean I play the song too often or that you are an especially keen listener?

Sun. 5/25/08 10:53pm From: Willy Voet

I like the song too, so I have remembered the artist's name. Actually, before you played it, I thought for sure I heard it on OCDJ's show a few yeras ago, and he listed it as the Belgian electronic artist aMute. Maybe I misread the playlist. In any case, I enjoy the song, so I don't think you play it too often. I am a keen listener of anything Stochastic.

Sun. 5/25/08 10:53pm From: Steve

Sorta near LA checkin' in

Sun. 5/25/08 11:00pm From: dave

wow, this is nice. it reminds me of loscil, but less electronc.

Sun. 5/25/08 11:02pm From: steven

listening from philadelphia - took in too much of the sun today...

Sun. 5/25/08 11:05pm From: pj

so wait, im trying to find the moglass because i really dug that song. is it an album done by Tom Carter & Vanessa Arn?

Sun. 5/25/08 11:06pm From: dave

aquarius records has it, pj. search for "moglass".

Sun. 5/25/08 11:07pm From: dave

and yep, it's Tom Carter + Vanessa Arn.

Sun. 5/25/08 11:14pm From: bethany

It's a split CD with 2 tracks byCarter/Arn and 3 by The Moglass...glad the word is getting out about them.

Sun. 5/25/08 11:18pm From: freeware

wow that last one hurt my ears! in a good way though... Listening from Essex, NJ here

Sun. 5/25/08 11:18pm From: Willy Voet

Some recordings by the Moglass here:

Sun. 5/25/08 11:44pm From: dave

nice nighttime music.

Sun. 5/25/08 11:45pm From: dave

oh, if a little depressing, given the subject.

Sun. 5/25/08 11:50pm From: Droll

Ahhh, I thought the beautiful melancholy would go right up until the end, then there would be a loud crash followed by a short second movement propelled by the sound of rearranging deck chairs, then a pregnant pause, then the station ID.

Mon. 5/26/08 8:55pm From: Pat

Magnificent Show!

Tue. 5/27/08 12:41am From: Pat

Oh ya, Oregon, near Portland.
