Listener comments!

  9:10pm
Sean:

Listening in from Somerville, Massachusetts -Prospect Hill
  9:13pm
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
  9:16pm
john:

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!
  9:16pm
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.
  9:20pm
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.
  9:23pm
Richard:

Hello and Thank You From Reeders, PA
  9:25pm
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.
  9:26pm
dave:

it is clear ike and i are a voting bloc on the ecstatic sunshine issue.
  9:26pm
Michael:

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

Well...the same sonic room anyway.

Salut from Clearwater, FL
  9:28pm
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.
  9:29pm
Sean:

We are all here riding the radio waves
  9:30pm
Joshua (via phone to Bethany):

Listening from Irvington, NY and on FM not online....hence he phoned in...
  9:35pm
Kevin:

Drifting off in Bedfordshire, England.
  9:36pm
Sean:

Yes, here we all are
  9:39pm
bethany:

Y'all are the best.

Did anyone bring snacks?
  9:42pm
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.
  9:44pm
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.
  9:47pm
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....
  9:49pm
dave:

freeform: nature's weight-loss miracle!
  9:50pm
john:

Oh cool, could do before and after WFMU pictures.
  9:52pm
?:

Here's a link to that NYTimes article:
http://tinyurl.com/3znzyp
  9:53pm
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.
  9:55pm
bethany:

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

Nice one, Dave. :)
  9:56pm
montreal:

more so than any other fmu dj, bethany picks tracks which confuse the cat.
  10:04pm
dave:

confused cats: nature's weight loss miracle!
  10:05pm
Down South:

Eating oreos - sans milk. This is my freeform diet.
  10:10pm
Francisco Torres:

Listening from San Juan, Puerto Rico.
  10:11pm
john:

Cat's asleep in the living room so I couldn't test the theory. I'll just assume it works.
  10:24pm
Jeff:

I don't have a cat, but this Brant piece is giving me a case of vertigo.
  10:26pm
Droll:

John, I've seen Confuse-A-Cat on TV and believe me, you'll know if it's working.
  10:28pm
john:

Droll,

She's here now, and looking vaguely confused. Wish I could link a picture I just took.
  10:33pm
dave:

it's a credit to this set that i can't entirely tell where one piece ends and the next starts.
  10:34pm
dave:

(that said, who's sunken, and how do i get more of that?)
  10:38pm
Ike:

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

Alan Licht, eh? Cool.
  10:39pm
bethany:

all of the sunken info is filled in on the playlist now...they're new to me, as is the label.
  10:42pm
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.
  10:46pm
bethany:

No guesses on this one?
  10:47pm
Willy Voet:

the Moglass
  10:49pm
bethany:

Yes, Willy. Correct.

Does that mean I play the song too often or that you are an especially keen listener?
  10:53pm
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.
  10:53pm
Steve:

Sorta near LA checkin' in
  11:00pm
dave:

wow, this is nice. it reminds me of loscil, but less electronc.
  11:02pm
steven:

listening from philadelphia - took in too much of the sun today...
  11:05pm
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?
  11:06pm
dave:

aquarius records has it, pj. search for "moglass".
  11:07pm
dave:

and yep, it's Tom Carter + Vanessa Arn.
  11:14pm
bethany:

It's a split CD with 2 tracks byCarter/Arn and 3 by The Moglass...glad the word is getting out about them.
  11:18pm
freeware:

wow that last one hurt my ears! in a good way though... Listening from Essex, NJ here
  11:18pm
Willy Voet:

Some recordings by the Moglass here:
http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=creator%3A%22The%20Moglass%22
  11:44pm
dave:

nice nighttime music.
  11:45pm
dave:

oh, if a little depressing, given the subject.
  11:50pm
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.
  8:55pm
Pat:

Magnificent Show!
  12:41am
Pat:

Oh ya, Oregon, near Portland.
