"Dictator Pt. 3"
Thursday, July 31st, 2003, 7pm - 8pm
on Joe Frank's show

The Reverend Lester Knox of Tifton, Georgia
Thursday, July 31st, 2003, 6pm - 7pm
on Aircheck
Insanely over-the-top gospel radio from the heart of south Georgia circa 1980-92. Rev. Knox purchased tons of time on WDIT-radio to spread the word, and it's up there with the greatest stuff by the likes of Rev. Louis Overstreet, Elder Beck, and Claude Ely. You'll hear: buzzing, short-circuited organ behind manic preaching, one-chord guitar bashing in what can only be described as the style of Hasil Adkins, and other sounds to literally scare the Hell out of you. This program is a sneak peak at a forthcoming collection on the new Smack Shire label, boiled down from 80 hours of tapes. Don't miss this.

Steve Wynn
Thursday, July 31st, 2003, 3pm - 6pm
on Three Chord Monte with Joe Belock
Leader of the legendary Dream Syndicate, member of the supergroup Gutterball, and prolific solo artist, Steve Wynn returns to WFMU in support of his new album, "Static Transmissions," the latest chapter in his amazingly fruitful career.

Duran Duran Duran + Moblin
Wednesday, July 30th, 2003, 11pm - 2am
on Advanced D & D with Donna Summer
Holy mother of Jesus! Hell hath spawned two new demons, one insane, vile, quite funny, and maybe a tad lovable, and the other friendly and fiendishly clever. Moblin is poised on the brink of superstardom for his complex and amazingly subtle glitchy vaguely hip hop compositions, and Duran Duran Duran has probably won the world over already not only for having the greatest band name in history, but for his searing breakcore mishmash of noise, silliness, and gay-porn lifestyle. They'll be rocking in the studio for the whole show so expect some live sets, some DJing, and plenty of chatter.

Jumpin' For Jesus
Wednesday, July 30th, 2003, 7pm - 8pm
on The Audio Kitchen with The Professor
Much beloved all over the world, Jesus Christ is one of the most popular guys around. And although he hasn't walked the earth for a couple thousand years, he still seems to maintain a very personal relationship with a lot of folks. This episode of the Audio Kitchen looks at the lighter side of Jesus through some recordings of people fooling around in the name of, and with, the King of Kings.

Jenifer Jackson
Wednesday, July 30th, 2003, Noon - 3pm
on Irwin's show
Jenifer's third released album, "So High," has been a Gender Bias favorite since its release earlier this year. (Irwin admits to overplaying the song "The Power of Love," because it gives him goosebumps.) Among other projects, Jackson composed the score for the indie film "Daydream Believer," and cut an album of jazz duets with her dad. She's co-written songs with Austin's Troy Campbell and with Nashville's Swan Dive, and co-starred off-off-Broadway with Rosie Perez in the play "Brooklyn Bridge." Jackson has collaborated with Medeski, Martin, & Wood, toured the US dueting with Jules Shear, and been a perennial showstopper at the Loser's Lounge musical tribute series.

Darren Bergstein
Wednesday, July 30th, 2003, 2am - 6am
on Orphan program
Editor/head writer of E|I Magazine (formerly I|E), Darren has also been an archivist/historian/collector of electronic and experimental music for 30 years.

The Tallboys
Saturday, July 26th, 2003, 5pm - 7pm
on The Cherry Blossom Clinic with Terre T
These 4 Brooklyn women bring slammin new rock 'n' roll that's comparable to Kleenex, early Raincoats and early Au Pairs. They have a modern postpunk sound that ain't no '80s rehash. Catch this session on the Cherry Blossom Clinic and you can say you heard them before they were huge. Then go see them live this same night, July 26 at Rare on W. 14th with Hominid.

Go Home Productions
Friday, July 25th, 2003, 5pm - 6pm
on Re:Mixology with DJ Jesuspants
Go Home Productions is one fellow from the city of Watford, England with a big ol' record collection and thankfully nefarious desire to do some wicked things to popular icons. Witness: the Madonna/Sex Pistols bastardization "Ray of Gob." The mere fact that he recognizes the true genius/remix potential of the Osmonds' "Crazy Horses" earns him a spot on the Re:Mixology schedule, where much unheard and new material is promised to be premiered.

Nikki Corvette

The Professor presents more Bob Lassiter
Thursday, July 24th, 2003, 6pm - 7pm
on Aircheck
The Host of WFMU's Audio Kitchen, checks in with the second in his two-part overview of the career of radio veteran Bob "Mad Dog" Lassiter on Aircheck. As a talk host, Lassiter specialized in pissing off the elderly, Christians, and a variety of intellectually-challenged listeners, and turning them into irate, and ultimately entertaining, callers. Compared to the lock-step right wing bozos that dominate talk radio these days, Lassiter's mischievous and misanthropic style is practically high art. In these two episodes of Aircheck, The Professor will feature plenty of Lassiter: hostile phone calls, a couple monologues, and Bob himself talking about his strange career in radio.

Going Out and Getting It On
Wednesday, July 23rd, 2003, 7pm - 8pm
on The Audio Kitchen with The Professor
For better or worse, in our society courtship is a strategic gateway to pleasure, companionship, human reproduction, and perhaps all three. It's never easy, and often there's a lot of talkin' that goes on during the dating process. Now and then such discussions are actually caught on tape, and every once in a while these recordings will fall into the hands of The Professor. Let's eavesdrop...

The Fugs
Wednesday, July 23rd, 2003, 3pm - 6pm
on Kenny G's Hour of Pain
Ed Sanders and Tuli Kupferberg founded the legendary Fugs in NYC's Lower East Side 39 years ago, challenging the war pigs, rules of personal freedom and even the definition of music itself, on and off ever since. Their latest reunion comes with a new studio record "The Fugs Final CD (Part One) and they drop some more bombs in the WFMU studios today with Kenny G. Tune in.

Saturday, July 19th, 2003, 5pm - 7pm
on The Cherry Blossom Clinic with Terre T
Ted Leo has been creating some of the best underground rock for over a decade in bands like Chisel. These days he plays melodic, poignant, evocative rock with "modern" lo-fi & distortions. His music calls to mind Nick Lowe, Thin Lizzy, The Kinks, Stephin Merrit, Alex Chilton, and The Jam, and his live sets are so intense that he's like the punk-rock Bruce Springsteen! Hear for yourself when he plays live on the Cherry Blossom Clinic. He'll also be at the Siren Fest at Coney Island on Saturday July 19.

Big City Orchestra present "Chimpy"
Friday, July 18th, 2003, 5pm - 6pm

Today, they present an open mic snapshot of our Commander In Chief, who digs his own trench. You'll laugh, but then, you'll cry. Download a ready-made CD cover for this show here.

Thursday, July 17th, 2003, 6pm - 7pm
on Aircheck
The host of WFMU's Audio Kitchen presents a two-part overview of the career of radio veteran Bob "Mad Dog" Lassiter on Aircheck. As a talk host, Lassiter specialized in pissing off the elderly, Christians, and a variety of intellectually-challenged listeners, and turning them into irate, and ultimately entertaining, callers. Compared to the lock-step right wing bozos that dominate talk radio these days, Lassiter's mischievous and misanthropic style is practically high art. In these two episodes of Aircheck, The Professor will feature plenty of Lassiter: hostile phone calls, a couple monologues, and Bob himself talking about his strange career in radio. (Part 1 of 2)

Pot Luck
Wednesday, July 16th, 2003, 7pm - 8pm
on The Audio Kitchen with The Professor
It's the monthly Audio Kitchen free-for-all, where anything audio and amateur is possible. On the menu so far - The private diary of a very famous person, the adventures of a gambling grandma, a traveling salesman belting out college fight songs from behind the wheel, and the cacaphony of a chronically call-screened answering machine. And best of all, we'll hear another kitty love song!

Tuesday, July 15th, 2003, 3pm - 6pm
on Brian Turner's show
Total guitar rock meltdown. Comets On Fire have members of bands like California's Six Organs of Admittance and the Low Down, and their first East Coast shows are gonna clean up this town of False Rock for good. Think Chrome's warped sci-fi attack, Blue Cheer with one guy solely playing an echoplex pedal, Japan's High Rise with more Detroit in them. Their latest disc is called Field Recordings From the Sun, and Alternative Tentacles just reissued their totally brain-frying first record. Ethan, Utrillo, Noel, Ben and Ben hit town to play with the Major Stars in Brooklyn, but on the way, they stopped by Jersey City to completely destroy the studios. Do not miss this!

Wayne Butane
Friday, July 11th, 2003, 5pm - 6pm
on Re:Mixology with DJ Jesuspants
Thankfully, people like Wayne Butane exist and have a lot of time to take millions of audio snippets and assemble them into brain-altering rivers of sound gush, that often will leave you chuckling in a most Beavis-and-Butthead-like manner before it all ends. Pure genius for the short-attention span potty-humor loving gnomes in the audience.

on Inner Ear Detour with David
Stumbling into town from New Orleans, the Morning 40 Federation serves up an intoxicating brew of sloppy, fun-drenched, raunch 'n roll on the theme of drinking, being drunk, being hungover, and drinking some more. Musically, they fall somewhere between King Oliver, the Insect Trust, and the John Spencer Blues Explosion. Fun is at a premium at all times. Feel free to drink along at home.

Getting Into The Music Biz
Wednesday, July 9th, 2003, 7pm - 8pm
on The Audio Kitchen with The Professor
It takes a lotta work to become famous, especially in the music business. And aspiring to music stardom often creates a nice wake of discarded recordings along the way.

on Re:Mixology with DJ Jesuspants
What can we say, even though she's from the United Kingdom, Vicki Bennett is already an honorary member of the WFMU staff, she's been around our halls more than the people who read the gas meters! Which is lucky for us, as People Like Us is her showcase for completely brilliant sound collage based around found sounds and a unique, dark brand of humor. Come take an exclusive-to-WFMU tour of her record box (and computer hard drive) of audio oddities.

The Growing Heart
Wednesday, July 2nd, 2003, 7pm - 8pm
on The Audio Kitchen with The Professor
While being in love is often pretty damn rewarding, being far away from the one you love for a while can be a real problem. Sure, absence may make the heart grow fonder, but it can also cause excessive lust, jealousy, and an overactive imagination. Now and then a long distance love affair will leave behind a few compelling and desperate recordings. In this hour we'll hear some of these artifacts, including all the appropriate sighing, pleading, and a few pregnant pauses.

Steinski

on Re:Mixology with DJ Jesuspants

To kick off the season this week: Ernie K-Doe will always be remembered for his 1961 hit "Mother-In-Law" but nothing can compare to his on-air antics at radio station WWOZ in the 1980's.

A smorgasbord of found and amateur audio.

The Woes
Wednesday, June 18th, 2003, 2am - 6am
on Orphan program
A five piece from New York, The Woes rattle their blues and draw on inspiration from the idiosyncratic reaches of country, delta blues, and rock and roll to the more modern sounds of The Dead Milkmen and Cage. The words "whiskey driven swamp rattle" come to mind as they stomp and sway through a set at the WFMU studios. Also featuring solo material by lead singer/writer Ossei Essed.

A Musical Eulogy for Chris Beyer
Saturday, June 14th, 2003, 5pm - 7pm
on Gaylord Fields's show
With the help of suggestions from several members of the WFMU family, Gaylord Fields and Robin Edgerton will present a program wholly inspired by the warped and beautiful musical mind of former full-time WFMU staffer, fill-in DJ and all-around mensch Chris Beyer, who recently passed away after a long illness. The two-hour program will span Chris' love for an obscene variety of song, as it veers from dulcet British folk to blistering L.A. punk, from keening guitar heroes to puerile novelty tunes -- not to mention vocal contributions from more than one woman named Anna. Both Eugene Chadbourne and the Hullabaloos will be heard from. Requiescat in pace, Chris.
