As we continue up the backlog, we listen to:

Modern Jazz Quartet, John Coltrane, Valve Studio orchestra, AM Radio, T.S. Eliot, Frank O’Hara, Porest, Art of Noise.

Its a very Jazzy and Poetic kind of collage today.

This Episode Aired on Holy Thursday, and since DePaul is a Catholic institution, I thought it only fitting to add some Church Music, or something like that. Enjoy.

Yhe improv/Alvin Lucier episode.

The first half hour combines many tracks, featuring Ryoji Ikeda, more Steve Roden, ghost quartet. The SECOND half hour is bedded with Alvin Lucier’s “I am sitting in a room” featuring many spoken word tracks, old sound FX libraries, and the mysterious ENVIRONMENTS, DISK 8.

This is the episode where the turntable was broken so we had some elaborate, and altogether undocumented, playlist choices. we for sure played a Steve Reich piece, and a new release from the record label 12k. we enjoyed playing Kronos Quartet and Charles Ives at the same time.

A very chatty episode, featuring a strange anthology of cassette tapes with poetry within, a LP of Jack Benny recounting ‘the golden age of radio’, number station recordings, Hainbach’s ambient piano works, some wonderfully meditative Steve Roden, PJUSK, Tomasz Stanko, and some other strange recordings from the 12k record label.

The show is now on Itunes, If you want to support this show please leave a review for me, thank you!

The true, scheduled debut of the wonderful noise collage we all don’t know.

Featuring Ryuichi Sakamoto, Laurie Spiegel, stereophonic steam engine recordings, Ian Nibbelink’s poetry, Christopher Bissonette, and the mysterious Syntonic Research, with a seemingly impossible 30 minute quadraphonic LP.

I apologize if my voice may be to quiet for some of the last bits of the show, soon and very soon I will understand the levels in this studio.
