Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from March 10, 2022 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

Hello Explorers, it's time to run the Marathon – pledge at least $20 during today's show and you could win one of these prizes (we'll give away two at the end of each hour):

Yasuaki Shimizu: Kakashi (LP)

Os Novos Baianos: Acabou Chorare (LP)

The Residents: Meet the Residents (LP)

Sun Ra & His Myth-Science Arkestra: The

Lady With the Golden Stockings (10")

Don Cherry: Om Shanti Om (LP)

Pledge $75 or more and you immediately get your choice of DJ Premium – The Explorers Room premium this year is
FRAGMENT FLASHES: 3 audio collages incorporating hundreds of library jingles, flashes, links, etc., played forward and backward simultaneously with no time changes or added effects and selectively mixed by yours truly, your true DJ – "For your listening pleasure & profound disorientation"

Or you could select the (truly terrific) premium of my wonderful cohost Tony Coulter: MEXICAN MONOLITHS: Avant-prog and experimental music from Mexico
Avatar 6:49pm
Tony Coulter:

Hey there, everybody! Go for Evan's premium. It's a brilliant and quite mesmerizing collage of sound library tracks. And by the way, your $75 pledge will also get you a t-shirt and bumper sticker.

Q: What's the opposite of a radio desert?

A: Thursday evenings on the Drummer Stream!!

Between Explorers Room and The Cool Blue Flame, there is no spot on any radio dial anywhere in the world more steaming more teeming with sonic biodiversity. Where the exotic is prosaic, and the mundane is miraculous. The wisdom and expertise behind these broadcasts is a glory to behold.

Stop by the pledge bucket and drop in a few ducats in honor of Maestro Flash Strap and his wonderful show!

About a week ago, I got an email from a listener who heard the novelty track "Don't Go Near the Eskimos" by Ben Colder play on the stream. (Not on any live program.) The track was part of a haul of about 30,000 MP3s I started the stream up with back in 2010. The tune features a bunch of white-ass morons singing in pseudo Eskimoese. The listener was offened and asked me to retire the track, which I did immediately and without reservation.
