WFMU: Bill Zurat: Playlist from July 31, 2009

Bill Zurat: Playlist from July 31, 2009

Some pop, fumbling musicians, bedroom recordings, vocal harmonies with orchestras, elongated notes, tape hiss, one-chord wonders, analog synths + clicking drum machines, loners, breezy country, and brief cacophonous interruptions.

Fri. 7/31/09 11:22pm Adam E.:

You can't go wrong w/ Neal Young--his music has every: noise AND character; repeition AND humanity. So . . .

Fri. 7/31/09 11:28pm Rory:

Neal Young power hour. Oh Yeeeeeeeaaaaaaa!

Fri. 7/31/09 11:29pm Rory:

How bout a Micheal Jackson hour. Ha Ha

Fri. 7/31/09 11:33pm Liz B.:

Hey beez, nice to hear you! I'm feeling the drama and anger (moving to a new apt tomorrow)!

Sat. 8/1/09 12:24am Jeff M:

Bill, since you're too cool to do the Facebook...

11 hours ago:

looking forward to hearing the one and only Bill Zurat play... whatever he chooses to play, when he does a fill-in on WFMU tonight, from 11 Eastern. Will there be little-known proto-glam? Synthpop? Some East German twanging on a piano string strung across his garret until you want to claw your eyes out? Only Bill knows.

19 minutes ago:

He's in fine form. I left the radio on when I left to walk the dog; when I came back Kathryn had returned from work, and the speaker in the kitchen was turned off.

"What happened to the music?" quoth I. "Bill's on."

"Did you HEAR what he was playing?" she asked. "It sounded like music from a radio station that was too far away to tune in without a lot of static. I couldn't take it any more."

Go Bill.

Sat. 8/1/09 12:26am Ted:

I like this song.

Sat. 8/1/09 12:27am Kelly:

Not versed in comment etiquette, so I don't usually do this- sucking the teat- liking it. Great show. Almost got a linkedin profile so I could email and say thanks but instead hit

Sat. 8/1/09 12:27am Alyssa:

Listening to you DJ is one of my favorite times.

Rock on.

Sat. 8/1/09 12:33am Dutch:

Good show young man

Sat. 8/1/09 12:43am Jeff M:

These songs after the last mic break have been anaesthetizing me. (In a good way, I hasten to add!) Really. So much so that typing the exclamation mark in a previous sentence kind of hurt, it was too high-energy.

Don't get all buzzy or jangly or suchlike too suddenly, please.

I guess you could morph into... a country thing?

I'm just along for the ride. With a margarita.

Sat. 8/1/09 12:46am Ted L:

I'm wearing velour. Actually, I AM velour.

Sat. 8/1/09 12:55am Jeff M:

I need a Valium with my Margarita. (Okay, it's my fault, I was playing the Kluster&#$* in 6-speaker faux surround sound.)

Khmer Bleu?
