Favoriting Mid-Valley Mutations with Austin Rich: Playlist from September 27, 2022 Favoriting

austinrich's avatar View austinrich's profile Favoriting

A combination of collage, new experimental records and other bits and bobs, Mid-Valley Mutations is a tour through the mind of Austin Rich, who has been broadcasting in some form since 1998. Heavily influenced by Dr Demento, Don Joyce and old fashioned College Radio, Austin creates Audio Essays on a variety of subjects, and even just plays records, from time to time. Sometimes Live music and Interviews will grace the program, helping create a situation where you don't really know what you're going to hear, when you tune in. What you need to know is when you enter the Mid-Valley region, be prepared for the Musical Mutations... in whatever form they take.

Those three-inch discs are hard to play now, if you don't have an old fashioned CD player...
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:10pm
Krys O.:

I seem to recall an adapter of some sort.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:10pm
Austin Rich:

Yeah, I had to order a CD player for my new computers, which don't have any, and that was a good excuse to get a spindle-style CD player, so I could play all my 3"ers.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:10pm
postconsumer:

I bought an adapter and cringe every time I inject it into my hard drive...
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:11pm
Austin Rich:

A couple years ago I did an all 3" disc show for Thanksgiving. And I did an all "biz-card-disc" show a few weeks ago.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:11pm
postconsumer:

so far they've all come back out fine. I used to run them in analog before that.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:11pm
Krys O.:

I still have an XTC 3" CD from Oranges and Lemons. BRB.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:13pm
Krys O.:

Make that just the box from that XTC disc. Hmmm. Oh, well.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:14pm
Austin Rich:

There's a bit of a 3" revival among experimental folks, as the size and length is almost perfect for most artists these days. With QR codes and other digital elements, 3" discs sort of have an unlimited canvas, but fit in your pocket. I've made a few 3" cdrs that were a hit at the merch booth afterwards.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:14pm
Austin Rich:

I wonder if those tunes are online, Krys O? that seems likely in the modern era.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:16pm
Austin Rich:

Dylan Houser also goes by Formaldehydra, and will be performing at NorCal NoiseFest this year. Dylan performs under a number of names, and I've really enjoyed all of their releases.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:17pm
postconsumer:

I love the way it looks. I performed on an album put out on three-inch cd in '02. I'd totally do more if I wasn't afraid most people wouldn't be able to play it.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:18pm
Austin Rich:

(Dylan is on the digital day, Sunday.)
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:19pm
Austin Rich:

Those biz-card discs are even more of a crap-shoot. I feel like I've had a few of them fail when I try to burn them.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:27pm
Austin Rich:

There's also a bit of a "Lathe Cut" music renaissance happening now, too. I know of at least four different people who sell lathe-cut discs that you can have your original music put on, and I'm sure there are many more. I've had three records made on lathes, and they sell pretty well.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:27pm
postconsumer:

it's funny... I love that crackle and pop on other people's shows. just not on my own, for some reason. Probably something for my therapist...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:27pm

What's it look like?

Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:28pm
Austin Rich:

Don Haugen is using a contact mic on a chimney brush, and is "plucking" the bristles... running it through FX, etc. You can sort of see them on the cover art.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:29pm
Austin Rich:

Like a regular record, but in mono. And more fragile. A lot of turntables can't play them, as the tone arm isn't heavy enough.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:29pm
Austin Rich:

Don Haugen also made a video for the virtual day of NorCal NoiseFest this year.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:30pm
postconsumer:

doing some googling, while listening. Looks like you can lathe cut things other than vinyl. Is the sound quality ok?
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:31pm
Austin Rich:

Don Haugen has been making experimental music since the late 80's. He makes incredible drones, very excellent videos. He and I did some shows with Mark Hosler when Mark and I toured a while back.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:31pm
Austin Rich:

The sound quality is so-so. It depends on the person cutting the lathe.

This guy has cut all my lathes, and I love the sound of them. He does a good job.

I got this tape, and a few others, all on "Sonic Meditations," that seem to be equal parts drone music as they are old-fashioned meditation tapes. They even have a bit of that 80's new age vibe to the packaging.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:33pm
Austin Rich:

I'm not familiar with Drunjus, but they are not playing the NoiseFest, that I know of. Maybe members of the group in other bands are?

Popping in to say hi yall! I'm enjoying the show and lightly lurking here in the chat!
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:42pm
Austin Rich:

Nice to see you, Heather. Sort of a light chat tonight. I think the experimental stuff puts everyone in a meditative place.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:42pm
Krys O.:

Good night, all! Thanks for excellent radio tonight. Take care.

Nighty Night, Krys O!

Definitely meditative. Good for post-show relaxing.

I had fun with this cut-up.

good stuff! I gotta go pick up my wife at work. Thanks for the radio...

No sweat! Take care.

Austin Rich:

Scott plays with a variety of pedals and loopers. But he is also and incredible guitar player, too.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:17pm
Austin Rich:

2019 doesn't seem that long ago, but it was also a lifetime ago. Nothing is the same for me now as it was then.
  10:22pm
Heather:

2019 was completely different from now for a lot of people, mostly in ways not good, from where I sit and what I've heard, sadly.
  10:28pm
Heather:

Happy Sheenaversary!!
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:32pm
Austin Rich:

I feel like I'm almost caught up with my other chores, to the point where I can properly prepare for my Sheena Show.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:33pm
Austin Rich:

Wait? I've been doing it for a year? Crap!
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:35pm
Austin Rich:

Scott and I recorded a new session on the patio not too long ago, and I think we have at least one more slated to happen before the end of the year. There MAY be a new "Olsen Twins Ghostlight Ensemble" album out THIS YEAR!
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:36pm
Austin Rich:

If you like this kind of stuff, here's our bandcamp page:

Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:37pm
Austin Rich:

We recorded a session in 2021, but we weren't able to jam much at all that year, for a variety of reasons. It was a hard year for a lot of people.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:39pm
Austin Rich:

Now that I think about it, there's probably a whole slew of unreleased "twins" recordings, if I dig around. Maybe I can do a "lost treasures" release next year, if covid keeps thwarting our plans.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:53pm
Austin Rich:

Thanks everybody.

Heather:

Thank you, Austin! As always, great show!!
