Aw, I already miss the days of being able to do things like Indian accents without being seen as "problematic."
Sheena's Jungle Room = Problematic Programming!

Ha, this Tip Top track is just *almost* Jean-Jacques Perreys' "EVA." Just need a vocoder voice going "Bi...ki...ni..."

Me too, Jan! My work's apeshit lately, esp. while getting things tied up before I go on vacation after this week.

Ursula1000:

that Tip Top track was from this UK radio show from the mid 90s during the lounge revival era--a faux variety show--they did this single as a 1 off
Avatar 2:11pm
Ursula1000:

called Radio Tip Top
Avatar 2:13pm
Mr Fab:

it was excellent (well, this whole show's been great so far) - a fake "EVA" doesnt bother me, as long as it's good.
  2:13pm
Martinibomb:

I never heard Tip Top. That song was interesting cover I would have expected them to sample or something
Avatar 2:14pm
Ursula1000:

yeah totally---I think Dave Formula of Magazine fame plays keys--its the show that debuted Mike Flowers and his Oasis Winderwall lounge cover

Oh ok, The Mike Flowers Pops, yeah they did some great stuff. The Velvet underground medley is hysterical. Wish they'd done more stuff.

I did a remix of this shake me track... I think they put all the samples on one of those futuremusic type things way back when hahah
  2:21pm
Martinibomb:

Ursula1000:

Avatar 2:25pm
Mr Fab:

mint royale's "from rusholme with love" was my fave. Wotta jam.

I bet this Glamor Pussy was fun to Dj out for people. I imagine dance line of people doing some kinda cat dance?

Mr. Fab - I support the title problematic programming other than the bad taste of using that word at all, I miss those days too...

Thanks Jan!

Oh yeah, United Future Organization, another '90s combo. Japanese, i believe? Had at least one of their CDs (back in the CD era). Ursula1000: spearheading the lounge-revival revival.

Ursula1000:

I love inputting info the playlist and its brand new for the system! Yeah UFO from Japan--awesome combo!

The overflow of obscure music is always impressive!
OTOH, there's lots of times I look for something obscure that only pops up on WFMU.
  2:51pm
Martinibomb:

@Ursula On my system I tried loading a 2hr mix into MIXXX and it kept crashing. I ended up using BUTT to play this pre-recorded mix I had from iTunes. So we should probably get that working on your system as a backup system incase Mixxx isn't working for whatever reason.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:51pm
Webhamster Henry:

From my top 10 imaginare sound events of 2106:
Carnaby Single Flexidisk, 1966 / 2016 reissue
Swingin' London during the British Invasion years produced a lot of ephemeral oddities, but of particular note was this Flexidisk, actually embossed on the front of a vinyl miniskirt! To play it, you convince your bird to remove the miniskirt and fold it rather lumpily onto the turntable. It's been reissued like so much other vinyl because: vinyl. I hear there's a similar Beret.
Avatar 2:52pm
Mr Fab:

hey Henry!
There's also the fact that Sheena's DJs are mad-fiend record collectors working from home, not using the FMU library. i would guess many DJs at a station don't feel the need to go hunting for stuff, there's plenty in the stacks.

Martinibomb:

Bring back wearable flexidisc! What a fantastic lost format

That's true! - It's the pre-fire Library of Alexandria, and that's not even counting the cassette dungeon.

Jan Turkenburg:

@MB, so mixxx having problem with playing two hour tracks isn't uncommon? Good to know.
Avatar 2:55pm
Ursula1000:

thanks for the Mixxx update---

Martinibomb:

At least on my system.. 90min was fine but 2hrs it crashes
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:58pm
Jan Turkenburg:

Well I have the same experience, so there might be a vulnerability.
  2:58pm
Martinibomb:

oh I sampled that same cha cha cha record hah and you got some Doing Time cool

Great set, Ursula! I feel like I'm ready to face the laundry now. Thanks for the inspiration.
