Instant Response  Who Has the Key   Favoriting Modus Operandi  My favorite Utah private press synth band. They were the same age as my older brothers in high school. The lead singer I believe just lived a block away from here. 
Favoriting
0:53:11 (Pop-up)
Instant Response  Dance With Decision   Favoriting Modus Operandi  I used to see lead singer Darin at church and in the community boys choir with my brothers. I believe he is now a professor at BYU. He is bottom left on the cover. 
Favoriting
0:56:52 (Pop-up)
Instant Response  Ugo Dreams in English   Favoriting Modus Operandi  CurrentIy local cassette collectors are scrambling over copies of this tape. I spoke to Bruce Hill on bottom right over the phone a year ago. Apparently my brother Brett was one of their roadies helping lug equipment to play at the Classic Skating rink here in Ogden circa 1985. He also stated that there was no drummer, just four guys with keyboards. He didn't have any known copies of the album himself.

Favoriting
1:25:43 (Pop-up)
Instant Response  Locked in Vacancy   Favoriting Modus Operandi  I remember one of the guys in the background of the cover photo as he was around our house now and again with my older brother. I hear a rumor that he has 3 unreleased songs from the sessions of this cassette. 
Favoriting
1:31:03 (Pop-up)
Instant Response  The Source   Favoriting Modus Operandi  I believe this is a song about God. Little brother of band member Bruce Hill became a pretty successful country singer around here. That brother was in my grade. In elementary school I saw the little brother use some of these synths to perform original compositions at a 3rd grade talent show. That stuff I would LOVE to find if it was ever recorded! 
Favoriting
1:34:38 (Pop-up)
Instant Response  Flash To Disperse   Favoriting Modus Operandi  These 6 songs are it from Instant Response. They graduated high school and went their separate ways. Leaving I feel one of the best bedroom synth albums I've ever heard. I've been a fan of this tape since 4th grade :)

Hi BC, here for the new waves.

Hello, I've not caught this before but I'm something of a fan of the idea of lost media myself. I spend a lot of time trying to identify mystery songs appearing on the net.
Avatar 2:00pm
BC Sterrett:

Hey Otis and MHLee! Hopefully these first tracks don't scare you off. lol
Avatar 2:04pm
Oboe Fodder:

I missed the whole Clamazon catalog when it was about or maybe I'm spacing but did not register it at all until you mentioned it on Lost Media. Something I would have totally dove into. You may have mentioned it to me on a visit and I had a donut in my mouth and was distracted.
Avatar 2:05pm
BC Sterrett:

It was kind of a catalog that said, if you like The Residents, you'll probably like this stuff...
Avatar 2:06pm
BC Sterrett:

Identifying mysterious songs on the net is all part of Lost Media Archeology.

To quote the resi's... 'make me moo' Clamazon.

This cd will all make sense in a minute I promise.

I came across a similar work in 2016. I was just checking what came up if you searched Bernie Sanders on spotify. Found a song like this called Bernie Snader-Pizza Rat or something.

Spoken interludes, check. Family photos on cover, check. Produced by Mr Wacky, check. Success.

Those things were a win for me as well!

I gave Irwin a copy of this back in the day. It looks like it has gotten a bit of WFMU airplay in the past.

Next week is the last show for Lost Media correct? Until you return one day in the future...

Nice, go Irwin!

More Lost and Found media.

Oh wow, flashback... writing Found just remembered the NPR show Lost & Found Sound. Need to revisit that one again.

Next week I will dig out your set on FP from 2010 and that interview we did on WGN in Chicago in 2005.

MHLee:

Have you ever heard of the Most Mysterious Song on the Internet www.rollingstone.com...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:32pm
MHLee:

There's a community around it looking for it and other songs. I prefer the search for the other songs.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:34pm
MHLee:

This reminds me of the DEVO work for Rugrats
Avatar 2:37pm

I'm working on getting a blues show together in the other room... some of the tracks I'm playing originate on BEWARE OF THE BLOG
Avatar 2:43pm
BC Sterrett:

I was gonna be part of Beware the Blog but the technical learning curve was too complicated for me at the time.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:45pm
MHLee:

I feel you. I just started a blogspot about two weeks ago (not officially launched yet) and I have no idea what I'm doing
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:49pm
MHLee:

That made me jump
Avatar 2:49pm
BC Sterrett:

When the oboe came in? lol
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:51pm

Yeah, I though it was a car alarm!

I would pre-order tickets to catch Dan Plonsey live.

I would be front row to see Dan Plonsey perform this album as well Otis! (with ear plugs of coarse)

Little Danny:

I am digging these tones.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:17pm
fred:

Hi BC and all. I guess you could get a show out of the calls you made to people who didn't (want to) remember these records/tapes
Avatar 3:19pm
BC Sterrett:

Hey Fred and Danny! Sorry was on the phone. Yeah the guy didn't seem to keen on talking about this tape.
Avatar 3:20pm
BC Sterrett:

This is the better side of the tape. Love these vocals and lyrics :)
Avatar 3:27pm
Mr Fab:

Ah, they gave out their names! Was wondering how you were able to track one of em down, w/no info on the tape. I was like, damn, BC's gooood..

ha ha
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:29pm

Well, BC's indeed good, but as a DJ, maybe not as a sleuth
Avatar 3:34pm
BC Sterrett:

I found someone who knew one of them so it wasn't too hard.
Avatar 3:35pm
BC Sterrett:

I was the guy who found the cast of Troll 2 however and held the first cast reunion. The documentary didn't want to tell my story however.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:37pm
fred:

What?! They didn't think it was about you?
Avatar 3:37pm
BC Sterrett:

I did have to hire a private investigator to help me find the mom however.
Avatar 3:38pm
BC Sterrett:

The child actor had something against me maybe. Who knows. I helped him out finding most of the other actors none-the-less.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:40pm
fred:

I can understand how that could help in the future: "either tell me who the other band members were on that tape, or I'll get a private investigator track down your mom and ask her for background"
Avatar 3:41pm
BC Sterrett:

Ha.
Avatar 3:41pm
BC Sterrett:

Ready for more Oboe Music?
Avatar 3:44pm
BC Sterrett:

I was talking about the actress who played the mom in Troll 2 if there was any confusion.

Oboe Fodder:

Is this the start of the "Now That's What I Call Oboe!" series? Please, no. However, I would enjoy an all "Top of the Pops - Oboe Edition" covering Bowie, Slade and the like orchestred by, I dunno... Paul Mauriat and Percy Faith?
Avatar 3:50pm
BC Sterrett:

Please play Katie Perry and Taylor Swift on this Oboe!
Avatar 3:50pm

BC, you know how to close out a show with a blow (disguised as a bang)!

Looks like I have time to play the last couple tracks off this. See everyone next week for the final show next week :)

What? Final show?
Avatar 3:54pm
BC Sterrett:

Yeah, had to make a choice to focus on some important life stuff like taking care of my parents, teaching another class, finishing a book, focusing on trying to have children etc etc.
Avatar 3:55pm
BC Sterrett:

I've played my all my fave tracks on this CD, I don't remember what this other stuff sounds like.

How about 'Shittyflute Meets the Oboe"?
Avatar 4:00pm
BC Sterrett:

You should record it Chresti!
