Cecile:

hi Fabio, today is my birthday. Could you play some cutting-edge, atmospheric experimental music today?

:D
Avatar 3:14pm
fabio:

  3:14pm
Cecile:

thanks, Fabio!
  3:15pm
pierre:

pierre:

strength through bonjour Fabio !
  3:15pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

getting Fabio to comment on the board is your birthday present.
  3:16pm
Cecile:

hahahahha, that's right.
  3:17pm
BSI:

Weapons-grade failure!
  3:19pm
Cecile:

Failure not intended for internal use.
  3:21pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

side effects may include awesomeness, hallucinations and mind expansion
  3:22pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

oh hell I'm 'bout to turn my speakers way UP
  3:23pm
BSI:

Speaking of medicinal audio, I've officially been sneezing since May 22nd. Need seriously prescription-strength (read: weapons-grade) audio. We're off to a fine start.
  3:23pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

sleeping must be rare for you at this point
  3:25pm
BSI:

oh hell, DCE, that's been rare since about 1989.
  3:29pm
pierre:

oh there's High Wolf in this !
so yeah "Ibis Rouge" kinda of make sense.
  3:45pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

this is the perfect title for this song. I can totally picture myself cutting a rug with the big red guy.
  3:49pm
BSI:

Egad, I just dug out this Ultimate Spinach LP yesterday. Weapons-grade Fabio has deep powers...
  3:50pm
sdfjones:

Ultimate Spinach--Failure of Vegetables.
  3:51pm
emmagineering:

Hiya everyone! Is the playlist stuck on the soft machine track? Maybe that's my degenerate device acting out. Very much enjoying thee set, fabio ;)
  3:54pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

Fabio is notoriously slow at updating the playlist. But we love him anyway.
  3:55pm
paula pc:

I see ultimate spinach, after lucifer, after soft machine
  3:56pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

Ultimate Hippie Bassline
  3:56pm
emmagineering:

Ah okay, all caught up then. Tanks for teh infro
  3:57pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

I can almost see the "Keep on Truckin'" beltbuckle...
  3:57pm
Ken From Hyde Park:

Today's show isn't failing. It's completely winning in all categories. I dare say it's a failure of failure.
  3:58pm
BSI:

Jeepers, I'd kill for one of those belt-buckles. Actually kill.
  4:00pm
Cecile:

I think they are being silly.
  4:00pm
Cecile:

the peanut butter conspiracy
  4:00pm
BSI:

Tonto's Expanding Headband.
  4:00pm
Cecile:

the electric flag
  4:01pm
Carmichael:

Hey Fab, hey people.
  4:01pm
dinatekno:

Much acid was used in the creation of those band names.
  4:01pm
sdfjones:

Moby Grape, Chocolate Watch Band, lotsa food.
  4:04pm
Parq:

Wasn't the Exploding Plastic Inevitable the name of Andy Warhol's happenings, not a band?
  4:05pm
Carmichael:

I don't want to go back to the 60s. You can't make me go back!
  4:06pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

let's go forward to the 2060s...it'll be so much more happening!
  4:07pm
duke:

Those hippies had to do it on their own. Now we have the band name generator http://www.1728.org/bandname.htm
e.g. Defiant Naked Scoundrels
  4:10pm
northguineahills:

Zarathustra bless you for playing this.
  4:13pm
pedro:

wow, what a great track! who's playing in this?
  4:13pm
Carmichael:

I knocked the socks off my jazz-head brother in law last weekend with Zappa's Gumbo Variations. He couldn't believe that other genres could "groove" ...
  4:13pm
northguineahills:

Pharaoh Sanders
  4:14pm
northguineahills:

"Red, Black, Green" from Thembi.
  4:15pm
northguineahills:

(had to dig the LP out)
  4:19pm
Carmichael:

Pretty fast on the draw, NGH. Seems like you're a jazz-head too ... :-)
  4:22pm
northguineahills:

It's one of my favorite albums of that period (post Coltrane/Ayler - pre 90s).

Thanks
  4:23pm
pedro:

i never heard much of pharoah sanders, actually i thought it was that ultimate spinach track over there. my mistake eheh
  4:23pm
dc pat:

you know, there WAS another The Pyramids, you know...
  4:25pm
northguineahills:

Actually, I do know, as I haven't heard of these Pyramids. I was confused.
  4:26pm
Cecile:

lalibela, I used to go to an Ethopian place called House of Lalibela.
  4:26pm
emmagineering:

I really thought that pharaoh sanders track was going to go into the creator has a master plan, but then, the noisy amazing first part threw me off. Impulse jazz good stuff...
  4:26pm
Cecile:

Not to be confused with the House of Labeja in Paris is Burning.
  4:26pm
House of Ninja:

F*** the House of Labeja!
  4:26pm
dc pat:

the other Pyramids were bald. Don't know what these Pyramids have on their heads.
  4:27pm
pedro:

@emmagineering: i thought the same thing, it sounded like the most modern of the noise-trancey songs.
  4:27pm
dc pat:

touche, house of ninja...
  4:28pm
BSI:

got an Ethiopian joint called Lalibela within an easy walk of this very desk. Suddenly hungry.....
  4:28pm
dc pat:

it would be really cool to follow the Pyramids with the Pyramids....aawwww....
  4:28pm
Cecile:

for injera and kitfo....
  4:33pm
Shawn:

I love the failure of skronking saxophones!
  4:34pm
dc pat:

lucky BSI, I don't have one Ethiopian joint within walking distance....well I guess if I walked for 20-25 minutes maybe, but no good ones..
  4:36pm
Robt777:

I know it's Sun Ra and all that but that gentleman sounded like the Maynard Ferguson of free jazz.
  4:36pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

we've got one Ethiopian place in CLE but I've never been there. Never had the cuisine. I assume I'm an ignorant ass.
  4:36pm
Fredericks:

Fantastic segue Pyramids >Ra
  4:37pm
Cecile:

Well, no.
It is different. You eat with your hands, for the most part - you scoop stuff up with spongy injera bread.

We used to go to the best place until a friend got salmonella from the kitfo. :(
  4:38pm
Todd 76%:

There's yet another Pyramids, if anyone's interested: a current experimental band from TX who have recorded w/ Nadja. Thanks for the great music, Fabio!
Haooy Birthday, Cecile!
  4:38pm
Cecile:

Haven't found a perfect place since Lalibela closed (not the salmonella place, that was earlier).
  4:38pm
BSI:

@DCP: honestly, I've heard less-than-favorable things about the Logan Circle Lalibela. There's surely better options, slightly longer walk. Hungrier still...
  4:38pm
Cecile:

Hey Todd!!!!!
  4:38pm
Robt777:

Well kitfo is a risky business.
  4:39pm
Chris from DC:

Now I'm starving for Ethiopian. Anything decent is at least a subway ride or pretty long walk away.
  4:39pm
Todd 76%:

* that's Happy Birthday, Cecile!
  4:39pm
emmagineering:

Sun Ra called Philly "the city of brotherly shove." hehe
  4:40pm
Robt777:

All the DC critics seem to love Ethiopic tho I have never been.
  4:40pm
Cecile:

it is. If they offer it cooked, get it.
Some places do.

There is a spicy spinach dish I love, can't remember the name...
  4:40pm
Maya:

Hi Fabio! great show!
  4:41pm
Chris from DC:

Have yet to try Ethiopic or Etete, but I have a hard time believing they're better than Abol.
  4:41pm
Cecile:

I should just go follow the She-Royal truck. The guy makes great Ethopian food.
  4:42pm
BSI:

No Ethiopian today. Meeting the missus in 50 minutes for pub grub & several pints of frothy brown. But I'll be dreaming of Abol's sacred lentils...
  4:42pm
Listener John:

Thanks for the Pharoah Sanders piece. This Love Cry Want piece is also blowing my mind . . .
  4:43pm
Carmichael:

My next band will be called Frothy Brown.
  4:43pm
Robt777:

Man, Love Cry Want is THE BOMB.
  4:43pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

your next band may be called santorum
  4:44pm
Listener John:

I've never eaten the Ethiopian food, but the Ethiopian music is interesting.
  4:44pm
Carmichael:

ELP!!!
  4:44pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

SO SORRY!
  4:45pm
Cecile:

Carm, I made up a bunch of your Carm's chicken - cooked it a little less time so it stayed whole - making soup and nachos from it. yum yum
  4:45pm
Chris from DC:

How about Sanctum Santorum?
  4:46pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

would have to be black metal, then
  4:46pm
Mitt:

Spanked 'im Santorum!
  4:47pm
Cecile:

I love Michael White.
A great violinist.
  4:47pm
dc pat:

I'd have to walk to Adams Morgan for good Ethiopian. Georgetown doesn't cut it in my experience.
  4:47pm
Robt777:

Killer name, C from DC!
  4:47pm
Cecile:

He was Eyvind Kang's violin teacher!
  4:49pm
BSI:

That reissue of Disco 3000 is really gorgeous. Great packaging...
  4:49pm
Robt777:

Is anyone else having problems with the 128k stream?
  4:52pm
Carmichael:

I just heard the riff and assumed my ass off.

Cecile, that's great chicken nachos!
  4:52pm
Cecile:

it is!
Are there any Trinity movies?
  4:55pm
pierre:

Ennio Morricone… formidable !
  4:56pm
dc pat:

I never get sick of this, "we can fight!"
  4:57pm
dc pat:

oh yes, Morricone Marathon!!
  4:57pm
Chris from DC:

Maybe my favorite of them all here. What a great series that sounds like.
  5:00pm
pierre:

I'm working on very long and painfull project of book, and you can't imagine how much this help !
  5:00pm
dc pat:

THIS is my fave. Sounds like Kiowas getting ready for ass-whuppin
  5:04pm
hubba:

good afternoon fellow astral travellers...
  5:04pm
Carmichael:

I'm standing in the sun staring at my enemy. A bead of sweat is running down my nose.
  5:04pm
Cecile:

waaaaaaa! stream went down.
  5:06pm
Mike East:

oh snap! mine too!
  5:06pm
Parq:

Thanks, Cile, I've been frantically trying to figure out what's wrong with my puter. Happy birthday, b/t/w.
  5:06pm
hubba:

Fabio, dead air please? We don't want to miss anyhting.
  5:06pm
Cecile:

thanks, Parq!
  5:06pm
dc pat:

I'm dancing around the room trying to explain what Carm is talking about to my 6 year old boy and his best friend. They would rather play with Legos...
  5:07pm
ERD:

Huh, the title to Queimada! sounds like a Navajo Joe rehashing, never noticed that!
  5:07pm
dc pat:

hmm, I'm doing ok here in Mac world, 128k stream
  5:08pm
hubba:

Flash is all I can muster...
  5:08pm
Cecile:

beta flash stream is way down
  5:09pm
hubba:

I know this awesome track... but i can't hear it... did it get to the guitar part yet?
  5:09pm
Scotty:

The Flash stream cannae take it no more Captain Ken!
  5:10pm
Shawn:

The stream is fine here in Linux land as well. --Perhaps you have network issues?
  5:10pm
hubba:

YEAH!!!
  5:10pm
Cecile:

back, whew!
  5:10pm
pierre:

it's still continues to amaze how much this music (provided that you can listen to it in good conditions) is so visually powerfull.
  5:10pm
Parq:

OK, Flash is back on mine.
  5:10pm
Parq:

And he brought Green Lantern.
  5:10pm
Cecile:

nope, cause Parq and Mike East were having issues, too.
  5:11pm
hubba:

Totally agree pierre
  5:11pm
northguineahills:

Man, I wish you were going to play the Finale from "Once Upon a Time in the West".
  5:12pm
dc pat:

yep, brings back my childhood 7 to 9 year old, obsessed with Clint.
  5:13pm
northguineahills:

Eyvind Kang is an amazing violinist/composer. Check out his Tzadik and recent releases (speaking of Michael White).
  5:15pm
Cecile:

Henry Fonda!
  5:16pm
dc pat:

"not exactly Clint Eastwood" that is a quote I will use soon, thank you sir.
  5:17pm
other david:

A cool beer and Strength Through Failure. Excellent.
  5:17pm
still b/p:

The gunshot sound effects in Once Upon a Time in the West are nuts. The visuals are great but the endless audio dubbing/looping of actor's dialogue is distracting.
  5:18pm
dc pat:

s b/p: I dunno, that dubbing/crazy bullets is what makes these films seem like they're from another world to me...
  5:20pm
Cecile:

I love your inappropriate laughter, Fabio.
  5:21pm
Parq:

My kid's BF is a big fan of Alan Sliverstri's movie scores, .e.g., the recent Avengers movie. Which has me thinking -- are Superhero movies now what Westerns were for the mid-20th Century? Will some future Fabio be talking about "Dark Knight" or "Spiderman" as semi-forgotten cult items one-third of a century hence?
  5:21pm
Carmichael:

When I was young, Yul Brynner seemed to be from another world. I never got a reasonable explanation of why some Eastern European gunfighter was hanging around with Steve McQueen in a Mexican village.
  5:22pm
pierre:

Battle Royal 's great !
much much more darker than what i 've seen from Hunger Game.

The great thing about that movie, is that each participant gets a different weapons, some will have machine guns, some will have a frying pan (or a map of the island), it's starring Beat Takeshi, which means, it's dead pan fun.
  5:22pm
Frank's Brain:

That's Henry's only role as a villain ever. Apparently he showed up in Italy to see Leone wearing black contacts and a black mustache - thinking he needed to look the part. Sergio had him take it all off. He wanted Fonda's baby blues to be up front and center. Genius. Your OUATITW fun fact of the day. Thanks for playin'.
  5:23pm
hubba:

Carm, ever check out that Yul Brynner album where he is accompanied by a "gypsy" guitar player?
  5:23pm
dc pat:

@Carm: exactly, a lot of things needed 'splainin..

@Parq: hmmm, maybe I should have a look at that stuff after all...
  5:23pm
still b/p:

Oh, the gunfire's good. Funner and better than the lame-ass effects in so many westerns until recent decades. The dubbing is a signature trait making it a differnt kind of entertainment, no doubt, but staying "outside" the picture and story somewhat because of it is too bad.
  5:24pm
still b/p:

Is this a DX-7 demo track?
  5:27pm
Robt777:

whatever it is I'm digging it!
  5:28pm
dc pat:

speaking of which, did anybody see Cowboys and Aliens or whatever it was called (should have been Cowboys vs Aliens)?
  5:29pm
pierre:

@ dc pat : yeah, it's good fun too, it's the best Harrisson Ford i've seen in a long time.
  5:30pm
Robt777:

yep. decent but not thrilling. tho I am a big fan of Daniel Craig in anything.
  5:32pm
dc pat:

seems like it's always good practice to mix genres, maybe I should watch a movie made in the last 20 years?
  5:33pm
northguineahills:

All I can think of is glass & blood w/ this Goblin track. (and barbed wire)
  5:34pm
Carmichael:

@hubba: Good God, another Golden Throats album?

@cd pat: Yes, I saw it. It was silly and fun, completely implausible with an awful ending.
  5:34pm
other david:

I found the HNAS track on youtube.. and forgot I had it playing at the same time as the Stream - went rather well with this Goblin track
  5:34pm
pierre:

i think the director named Barry Sonnenfeld, is going to make a movie called : Dinosaures Vs. Aliens, written by Grant Morrisson.
  5:35pm
northguineahills:

Where's Battle Royale playing (I was in the other room when Fabio mentioned it)? I've only seen it on mute while I was djing a a club a while back.
  5:35pm
Carmichael:

*dc pat ...
  5:36pm
Cecile:

I am actually looking forward to Men in Black III and not just because one of the FOTC guys is playing the bad guy.
  5:36pm
Carmichael:

anything *versus* anything is usually a safe bet, movie-wise.
  5:37pm
Parq:

Cile, we are big MIB fans, even saw the second one. It is known for being terrible, and it is, but we found stuff to laugh at anyway. We are psyched for the third one because they shot scenes of it in our nabe.
  5:38pm
Parq:

Carm, Godzilla vs the Smog Monster!
  5:39pm
Mike East:

I saw MIB3 last weekend. It was fun. Apparently Andy Warhol was an agent.
  5:41pm
Parq:

Mike E, I'm reminded of the curtain line from the first one -- what a lousy disguise!
  5:46pm
Mike East:

Ha! yes.
  5:46pm
nic:

really like this 1 !!!!
  5:48pm
seang:

bring out the Pidge
  5:50pm
Matt from Springfield:

More updates on Clay's arrival. Fab should do this every week!

"Corporate Laughter"--like the title.
  5:52pm
Matt from Springfield:

Glasses: "If you haven't seen them, they're NEW TO YOU!"
  5:52pm

bye
  5:53pm
dale:

clay - you should pick up a six of carnation instant breakfast
  5:54pm
Cecile:

yep! People have gone blind because of regular measles, and deaf because of German measles

You get shingles.
  5:54pm
Matt from Springfield:

The Institute for Herpetic Research
  5:54pm
glenn:

no no. SMALL pox.
  5:55pm
Matt from Springfield:

BRIAN Turner Overdrive! Go BTO!
  5:55pm
Cecile:

waitin' for the fallout...
  5:56pm
dale:

rte 28 is a yard salesrs dream on a holiday weekend!
  5:56pm
Ike:

Wasn't there an REO Speedeater? Or was it just REO Speeddealer?
  5:57pm
Matt from Springfield:

"Herpetic" is an actual adjective, usually it seems for "post-herpetic", like Postherpetic Neuralgia (PHN).

But, right now "The Institute for Herpetic Research" is a GOOGLENOPE! And thanks to my comment, you will soon be able to find that on GOOGLE after this playlist is closed!!!
  5:59pm
Cecile:

OMG, Clay, I asked Fabio about that.
  5:59pm
Ike:

I hope Fabio doesn't mean The Killing USA, which is utterly horrible. Maybe even worse than Pidge's taste in music!
LOL LOL j/k!
  5:59pm
Cecile:

you scare me.
  6:03pm
Ken From Hyde Park:

I agree with the Trinity movies with Terence Hill and Bud Spencer. They Call Me Trinity, Trinity Is My Name and Trinity Is Still My Name, and maybe some others.
  6:13am
Bas, NL:

The Pyramids! I had this track on an old tape and never knew what it was! :D
