Artist Track Album Label Comments Approx. start time
Modeselektor  Let Your Love Grow feat. Paul St. Hillaire   Happy Birthday  Bpitch Control    0:00:00 ( )
Moderat  Slow Match feat. Paul St. Hilaire   S/T  Bpitch Control  ARIES: Is the electron a wave or a particle? Physicists had to conduct thousands of experiments to arrive at the definitive answer, which is that it's both. In other words, the solution to one of the fundamental questions about the nature of reality is a paradox. I think this strongly suggests that the correct response to many other riddles about the ultimate truth might be two seemingly opposing explanations. Could the Unitarians and Buddhists both be right? Socialists and capitalists? Mystics and scientists? In the upcoming days, Aries, you will be offered lots of practice in adopting this approach as you deal with a personal dilemma that's very much akin to "Is the electron a wave or a particle?"  0:05:53 ( )
Disrupt  Echobombing   The Bass Has Left The Building  Jahtari  TAURUS: Have you ever mused on the fact that your body is actually a kind of furnace? And that your whole life depends upon it? Food and oxygen are constantly combusting inside you, generating fiery energy that fuels your every movement, thought, and feeling. This awareness of fire as a source of vitality, not a destroyer, would be valuable for you to cultivate in the coming days. Your steady, earthy rhythm needs a shot of radiance and luminosity and fervor.  0:11:18 ( )
Company Flow  Silence   Funcrusher Plus (REMASTERED - 12TH ANNIVERSARY!)  Definitive Jux  GEMINI: Several couples I know keep lists of the five celebrities they'd be allowed to boink if the chance ever presented itself. My friend Jim, for instance, will incur no karmic repercussions with his girlfriend Alicia if he ever spends a night of carnal delight with the following people: Lady Gaga, Sarah Silverman, Karen O, Shakira, or Halle Berry. Alicia's permitted to enjoy liaisons with Johnny Depp, Chris Rock, Marilyn Manson, Jimmy Fallon, and Portia de Rossi. I bring this up, Gemini, because I believe you'll soon be the beneficiary of some extravagant cosmic luck that could offer you a close brush with an exotic form of pleasure. This might not exactly take the form of a one-night stand with a famous fox, but it could be almost as extraordinary.  0:13:58 ( )
Afu-Ra  Living Like That (feat. Masta Killa)       CANCER: I'm happy you're getting back to fundamentals and shedding pretensions and nourishing your roots, but I also want to make sure that you don't get too funky and lowdown. I'd hate to have to be hoisting you up out of the gutter next week, or counseling you on how to cover for the fact that you've compromised your own highest standards. So please resist any temptations you might feel to descend toward the lowest common denominator, Cancerian. As you deepen your center of gravity, make sure you keep your attitude elevated.  0:17:38 ( )
Capone -N- Noreaga  Black Gangstas   The War Report    LEO: "I may not love you," wrote R. R. Doister, "but I can certainly love my fantasy about you." Personally, I've been guilty of embodying that attitude toward certain people in my life. There have also been allies to whom I could have said, "I do love you, although I love my fantasy about you a little more." And it has even been the case on numerous occasions that I've been proud to declare, "I love you even more than I love my fantasy about you." What about you, Leo? Where do you stand on the issue? This is an excellent time to get on the righteous side of the great divide, which is to say: Adore your special people for who they really are more than for your fantasies about them.  0:21:32 ( )
Kid Cudi  Solo Dolo (nightmare)   Man on the Moon: The End of Day    VIRGO: In a puckish fantasy, the poet Linh Dinh imagined a hypothetical scenario in which it would be uncool to be too cool. "In an effort to inject more pep and resolve into its lethargic citizens," he waxed with prophetic longing, "the government is mandating the use of an exclamation mark at the end of each sentence, spoken or written. 'It looks like rain!' for example, or 'I must sleep!'" I suggest that you take his vision, Virgo, and turn it into reality for the immediate future! You would really benefit from getting more excited than usual! Who knows, maybe a simple thing like imagining every one of your sentences ending with an exclamation mark could make your whole being more thrillable!  0:24:39 ( )

M83  Up!   Saturdays = Youth  Mute  LIBRA: Is there a big difference between your current job and your beloved career? Do you suffer from the unsettling feeling that your calling hasn't called you yet? Are you under the impression that your main reason for being here on Earth may reveal itself at some unknown time in the future, but not anytime soon? If you answered no to all those questions, congrats! You are more than halfway toward living a victorious life. But if you answered yes to at least one question, it's high time to take action. Start by formulating an intention to find out what you need to know in order to deal with the problem more aggressively. The cosmic forces are arrayed in such a way as to reward you for doing so.  0:42:09 ( )
Muse  Undisclosed Desires   The Resistance  Warner Bros.  SCORPIO: The Indian guru known as Amma has hugged over 30 million people during her three-decades career. I've known people who've received blessings from her, and they tell me that she can magically undo your karmic knots with her spiritual power, freeing you from having to suffer indefinitely for the bad decisions you made in the past. Amma rarely does a complete unraveling of all karmic knots in one sitting, however. Your negative conditioning might be holding you together, after all, and a sudden super-fix could cause you to fall apart. That's the situation I suspect is true for you right now, Scorpio: You'll be wise to undo some, but not all, of your karmic knots.  0:46:30 ( )
Tool  The Grudge / Parabol / Parabola   Lateralus    SAGITTARIUS: "The coming week will have something to offend and agitate everyone -- except you. Whines and moans and yelps will ring out across the land, even as you're emanating poise and aplomb. You may be tempted to brazenly exploit everyone's vulnerability and seize control of your corner of the world, but I think that would be shortsighted of you. A better strategy for capitalizing on your advantage would be to dole out large doses of mercy, making sure that the people who will be important to your future don't lose their way.  0:51:17 ( )
Alice In Chains  Last Of My Kind   Black Gives Way To Blue  Virgin  CAPRICORN: "The bear must deal with 20 obstacles, and each one of them involves pears," says the Sufi proverb, "because the bear adores pears." That's a twisty truth worth meditating on, Capricorn. I suspect that the gifts coming your way will bring their own unique problems; the dreams you're in love with will generate new dilemmas to solve. By no means does this imply that you should avoid accepting the gifts or pursuing your dreams. Part of the fun of doing great things is dealing with the changes they generate!  1:04:20 ( )
Rasputina  Choose Me For A Champion   Oh Perilous World    AQUARIUS: On behalf of all us non-Aquarians, I'd like to express our appreciation for the experiments you've been performing. Please don't be discouraged just because the results thus far have been inconclusive and left you feeling a trifle rudderless. We feel confident that sooner or later you'll come up with discoveries that will have bottom-line value to both you and the rest of us. We'd also like to apologize for the shortsighted and timid types among us who are accusing you of being unrealistic or overly optimistic. Please keep trying those novel approaches and making those imaginative forays.  1:10:37 ( )
Fantomas  04/20/05   Suspended Animation    PISCES: While reviewing the work of Angelina Jolie in the film Taking Lives, A. O. Scott called her "the flesh-and-blood actress most likely to be mistaken for a computer-generated special effect." I don't expect you to rival Jolie's odd talent anytime soon, but I wonder if maybe you'll be seeing a lot of that kind of stuff in the world around you. Some of the characters who will be advancing the plotlines in your life story may seem to be able to breathe fire, walk through walls, or change the weather at will. At the very least, you'll witness phenomena that resemble optical illusions. My advice: Try to get these exotic outbreaks to work for you rather than against you. Embrace them, don't fear them.  1:13:26 ( )

Fri. 10/2/09 7:39am From: Ken From Hyde Park

For the past few days, the 128k stream has been cutting out on me periodically. It drops for less than a second and picks up again. This happens every few minutes. The volume level is also low. I have it at max volume, and having a hard time hearing.

Fri. 10/2/09 7:43am From: texas scott

I'm here now
thanks for tool

Fri. 10/2/09 7:48am From: HotRod

Ken, if I raise the volume more, it will sound like crap...sorry if it's low. Make sure you check all your volume settings. Are you listening through good speakers? Subwoofin' it??? Headphones?

Fri. 10/2/09 7:49am From: HotRod

Where are the headphone nerds at?!?!? Tell us about your current favorite pair and why!

Fri. 10/2/09 7:50am From: mig el

Fri. 10/2/09 7:53am From: Guerrilla Lou

Toodles HotRod world. Time to go to work!

Fri. 10/2/09 7:57am From: Joshua K

I have sennheiser HD555 open headphones and audio technica noise cancelling. Also the headphone.com bithead amp.

Fri. 10/2/09 7:58am From: Topher

HR,

I just love the 'V' Snares!!! One of the groups that your show turned me on to - what - a couple of years ago now?

Fri. 10/2/09 7:58am From: Parq

Ken, my volume level is fine, but I am getting the drop-outs.

Fri. 10/2/09 7:59am From: Joshua K

Now I gotta go home from work to try and enjoy my vampire weekend of staying up all night.

Fri. 10/2/09 7:59am From: ogden peepee

Fri. 10/2/09 8:13am From: Parq

Hope you're well!

मोहनदास करमचंद गाँधी

Fri. 10/2/09 10:39am From: Ken From Hyde Park
