Favoriting Brian Turner: Playlist from August 28, 2012 Favoriting

Order and disorder in a freeform haze of terribly-played guitars, shorted-out electronics, found audio detritus, strange sounds from strange lands all around. Psych-punk-junk, collage, even pop. Lots of in-studio live performances to boot.

  3:07pm

Just a pop-in to comment how *fine* that Orient Express "For a Moment" was! Really nice.
  3:08pm
kat330:

Now back to listening only. Hi/bye, BT, Matt and all!
  3:09pm

Holadios, kat!
  3:14pm
Sofrok™:

This MNDLSBLSTNG track has a reflective, relaxing quality.
  3:14pm
northguineahills:

looks for moar volume....
  3:15pm
DCE:

boy is that punishing
  3:15pm
Matt from Springfield:

Now the heavy shit hits the turntable!

M.N.D.L.S.B.L.S.T.N.G.?? Wonder if there's any meaning behind THAT?
  3:17pm
Lutz:

I thought it was mindblasting, like sandblasting, but I'm wrong. It just doesn't wash under closer scrutiny.
  3:18pm
Matt from Springfield:

Lenny & the Squigtones!
Is this actually Lenny & Squiggy performing this?
  3:19pm
mark vt:

For some reason I donned my new class of 73 wfmu swag shirt today instead of the BT T shirt on a tuesday.
  3:22pm
Flexi:

EVA TONE forever!
  3:22pm
Matt from Springfield:

Jonesy & X.Ray! Our own awesome pair!
But if this is new, why does it sound like a flexi-disc run over by a steamroller?
  3:22pm
Mike East:

whoa - I was just listening to an archive of last Sunday's Glen Jones Radio Programme and checked out the playlist so far...I think the universe is telling me I should be listening to BT right now.
  3:23pm
Flexi:

Built-In grit, Matt. Why wait for time's ravages.
  3:26pm
Shred Skelton:

Ira's no Yngwie, but he has heart.
  3:27pm
mark vt:

yes. the universe is lining up just about ok right now. I knew it.
  3:28pm
Mike East:

..also, someone from Talking Heads is in the room next to me...I won't say who. The synchronicities keep piling up!!!
  3:29pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Flexi: Added effect of "there is no date of creation, it's always just been *there*!"
  3:29pm
mark vt:

I would hope it is David Byrne and he is making music out of the building.
  3:30pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Mike: If you play this track backwards, it says: "Listen to B Teeeeee..." over and over.
  3:31pm
hubba:

I need some sonic detritus salvation... feeling anxious in the world of big, clumsy ideas
  3:35pm
mark vt:

I have been watching some old shows from the late 40's and early fifties. Why did they say "say" so much back then. As in "say, mister" or "say, what are you crazy!"
  3:40pm
paula pc:

wondrous show so far, Brian
  3:41pm
mark vt:

And they also said yes a lot in those commercials built right into the shows. "Yes, it's this that is so good, yes. Say, haven't you tried to say say today, yes. Mothers agree, yes, say."
  3:41pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Mark: "Say fella, I gotta show, see?"
  3:43pm
mark vt:

yah, see, yeah? that was in the 20's
  3:46pm
Blade-o:

I was alwaus anxious to dismiss Hamill, because the utterance of his name reminded me of Dorothy Hammill and an ill-executed Flying Camel (Helsinki - 76'). I see now that I was wrong. This is good stuff.
  3:48pm
mark vt:

Yeah, yes, see! Say mister. Mothers agree.
  3:50pm
paula pc:

oh, cesaria evora sounds so young here!! amazing how deep her voice got (just as beautiful)
  3:50pm
mark vt:

Pub d hub on roku has tons of these old shows. So fun to watch.
  3:51pm
Chester Fields:

Say, Brian. This music is the bees knees. We're all smoking cigarettes over hear and pulling our pants up to our ribcages.
  3:55pm
mark vt:

Which knee? The right..here it comes ladies and gents, the left..bata boom, the high, or the wee knee? Say! (painful sounding hack lung cough added here).
  3:55pm
paula pc:

now THIS is some splendid Autotune
  3:57pm
Matt from Springfield:

@paula: Agree!--as long as I'm not trying to understand the language, it actually works very well!
  4:02pm
Carmichael:

Hiya BT, hey there peoples.
  4:06pm
emmagineering:

lots of notable centarians this year, john cage, nancarrow, and alan turing to name but a few
Avatar 4:06pm
BT:

Hey everybody. Thanks for dialin in, hangin on.
  4:09pm
O.T.:

Brian, quell the rumors. Is Ted Turner your uncle?
  4:10pm
tim from champaign:

I caught a performance of Nancarrow's pieces about 7 years ago as part of a keyboard festival. 2 phd students studying Nancarrow worked with a programmer in order for a modern player piano to play NC's scores. It was jaw dropping to see the flurry of keys on the keyboard.
  4:12pm
Greg in Trenton:

Ironic, Tim. I just pounded a Dairy Queen McFlurry!
  4:18pm
tim from champaign:

Ha!
  4:20pm
Carmichael:

Now this guy's a candidate for every song at the same time.
  4:20pm
other david:

A guy called Ding Dong Denny O'Reilly does an excellent version of this song called "Abrakebabra" - in honour of a particularly, eh, dodgy Irish fast food chain
  4:22pm
paula pc:

so glad this is the EXTENDED jam on this song...
  4:26pm
northguineahills:

Darn, I step out and miss the Nancarrow.
  4:28pm
paula pc:

and uh hopefully this is the extended jam too...
  4:28pm
Matt from Springfield:

Hi OD!
Dodgy kebab fast food - wonder if that compares with Taco Bell, America's dodgy taco fast food chain.
  4:32pm
other david:

Heh, hi Matt!

Haven't yet had the pleasure of Taco Bell - if I ever get across to the States again, I'll have to research :)

Abrakebabra has a magnetic effect on drunk people around 2AM..
  4:32pm
Cheri Pi:

I am so hungry! I'd eat a dodgy kabob right about now...
  4:34pm
joe k:

Nancarrow AND Tommy Bolin on the same program??!! You are now officially my hero.
  4:37pm
Matt from Springfield:

@joe k: More importantly, Brian shows there's no reason why there shouldn't be.

@OD: 7-11 taquitos -- people will seldom if ever buy those, except when completed blitzed @2 AM!
  4:40pm
joe k:

@Matt - I couldn't agree more! I was a college DJ 30 years ago and I used to love inserting Nancarrow pieces in the midst of all sorts of programming schemes.
  4:41pm
Matt from Springfield:

"Zohk's Coming: No Refunds"
  4:42pm
Matt from Springfield:

"KHJ Radio in Los Angeles, California broadcasts Spanish-language entertainment programming as La Ranchera. It was also one of America's most formidable Top 40 radio stations in the 1960s and 1970s as 93 KHJ before changing its format in 1980."
  4:43pm
Matt from Springfield:

@joe k: Scheming the schemes - I like it!

Can't quite tell what the Wonder Score elements have in common, except linking Barry Manilow-penned commercial jingles with Barry Manilow singles.
  4:44pm
efd:

I feel like I have this jingle sampler.
  4:45pm
Matt from Springfield:

At first I thought "the Wonder Score" was like one of those 70s "How to pick up women EVERY TIME!" records of the time! :)

You can't just be like everyone else--you need BUMPERS! Like everyone else who's putting BUMPERS in between!
  4:45pm
Matt from Springfield:

BUMPERS!
  4:46pm
Matt from Springfield:

PAUL - SIMON - BUMPER! - MUSIC ... WEDNESDAY!!!

  4:51pm
darue:

  4:54pm
Matt from Springfield:

Wow, didn't know Negativland mixed that in! I imagine they would use that well--I want to hear that now!
  4:56pm
David St. Hubbins:

"Well you should see what they let STEVE MILLER do at his concert!...Oh yeah, true, it was the SINGER being put in the cage..."
  4:57pm
darue:

Dick Vaughn's Moribund Music of the 70's
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJEooh-ynTs

negativeland used it on Helter Stupid, side two IIRC, "The Perfect Cut"

nothin' but a bunch of rooty toots
  4:58pm
Matt from Springfield:

@BT: Big Red commercial, upbeat Jam Productions WFMU bumper, Doobie Brothers! Post haste!
  4:58pm
the black pope:

i'm a human radio station, got it?
  5:00pm
Matt from Springfield:

Oh wow, Scott Williams was playing this recently! Too cool!

@darue: Thanks!
  5:01pm
BSI:

Hugh:

Rock over London. Rock over Jersey City. (Wesley Willis)
  5:08pm
Matt from Springfield:

This guy's like Klaus Beyer, except he's explaining English songs, in English dubbed over the track! When it's prob not his first language to begin with!
  5:17pm
Beerbully:

Groovy.
  5:22pm
Matt from Springfield:

Sounds From The Horror Chamber, Vol. XIII
  5:33pm
Matt from Springfield:

Conrad Schnitzler! Woohoo!
  5:37pm

*looks suspiciously at Matt*
  5:46pm
other david:

Also - hey Kat! :)
  5:47pm
kat330:

Hey, OD! It could, of course, be the "Eggs, Eggs" instead, esp. without the Cleansing Power of Fruit. :)
  5:53pm
Matt from Springfield:

Man, those dodgy kebabs, they fill you with nothing but enthusiasm for BUMPERS! :)
  5:54pm
Matt from Springfield:

"Egg, Eggs", and the Mr. Eat Candy.
Nice to meet you mystery candy....
  5:54pm
kat330:

Bye BT and all! Have a great week!
