We've Got A Fuzzbox And We're Gonna Use It	Fever [Variable pitch]	What's The Point 7"	WEA	1987	A little pitch shifting makes this cover a bit woozier. Peggy Lee brought fame to the Otis Blackwell / Eddie J Cooley composition. May our extra warping of this delightful Fuzzbox version ease you into the world of fever dreams...		0:00:08 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Spectre	The Illness [Pitched down]	The Illness	WordSound	1995	Pitching the speed down for this classic from the "Illbient" genre. It gets heavier this way, deeper into your system... About the man behind Spectre: "Skiz Fernando Jr. started his career as a journalist. Writing articles in different fanzines or magazines like Rolling Stone, interviews and records' back cover, he published in 1994: "The New Beats : exploring the music, culture and attitudes of hip-hop" (Anchor Books). Thanks to 1000$ that he borrowed from the producer Bill Laswell, he founded Wordsound Recordings in December of the same year."		0:02:12 (Pop-up)
Kamikaze Palm Tree	Sharpie Smile "Sharpie Smile" by "Kamikaze Palm Tree"	Good Boy	Muddguts Records	2019	Dylan Hadley (White Fence) and Cole Berliner formed Kamikaze Palm Tree in their hometown of San Francisco in 2015. Being lifelong friends and collaborators, the duo imagined a debut album and performance that brings together their noise rock background, with the theatrical and the epic. With a penchant for the disparate, and psychedelic, the progression of their sound is far from linear. Kamikaze Palm Tree delivers an exciting and, above all, melodic mixture of psychedelia and post-punk.		0:05:28 (Pop-up)
Warmduscher	Eight Minute Machine "Eight Minute Machine" by "Warmduscher"	At The Hotspot	Bella Union	2022	In cities across the world stand ugly modern obelisks called hotspots. They provide WiFi, a speaker on which to make calls, a screen displaying weather information, and sockets to charge electronic devices. You can assume that the local authorities who installed them there see them as glossy and futuristic, a way of painting over the cracks in society that were symbolised by the dilapidated phone boxes that once stood in their place. Around the hotspots, however, have grown little micro-communities making use of the services, populated by the eccentric outsiders that local authorities are so keen to sweep under the rug. The relative anonymity with which they can be used attracts a certain type of activity. “It’s the same old story with a new twist,” says Warmduscher’s Ben Romans-Hopcraft. “You see these dishevelled looking people but with smartphones, and you realise they’re just trying to score, but through WhatsApp. This album was produced by Joe Goddard and Al Doyle of Hot Chip.	*	0:09:04 (Pop-up)
Iggy Pop	Funtime "Funtime" by "Iggy Pop"	The Idiot	Virgin Records	1977	Described by Pop as "a cross between James Brown and Kraftwerk", The Idiot marks a departure from the proto-punk of the Stooges to a more subdued, mechanical sound with electronic overtones. Recording for it began at the château in June 1976 and continued into July. Further sessions took place at Musicland Studios in Munich in August. Bowie composed most of the music and contributed a major portion of the instrumentation. Pop wrote most of the lyrics in response to the music Bowie was creating. The album's title was taken from Fyodor Dostoevsky's novel of the same name, while Erich Heckel's painting Roquairol inspired its artwork. NME's Nick Kent described the music as "totally rivetted and fettered to a thoroughly unhealthy aroma of evil and twilight zone zombie-time unease".Bowie biographer David Buckley called The Idiot "a funky, robotic Hellhole of an album".		0:11:28 (Pop-up)
Country Teasers	Thank You God for Making Me an Angel	Satan Is Real Again	Crypt Records	1996	There are not any reviews of this fine record, Country Teasers second offering, however this user review on a small website offers the following: "A ton of raw punk songs, while the instrumentation doesnt really bring anything amazing to the table, the raw energy of the shoddy recording quality combined with the deadpan delivery of politically charged lyrics mostly about social issues. This records biggest weakness truly is just weak instrumentals." STAND THERE IN YOUR WRONGNESS AND BE WRONG BECAUSE THIS ALBUM IS FUCKING GREAT.		0:14:28 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Dear Laika	Liilac Moon, Reflected Sun	Pluperfect Mind	NNA Tapes	2021	Pluperfect Mind, the label debut from the 23-year-old UK-based musician Dear Laika (a.k.a. Isabelle “Izzy” Thorn), is an extraordinary creation — a beautiful and singular oddity which exists in the liminal space between dreamworlds and a blurry, watercoloured version of reality. It is a reflection on the past few years of Izzy’s life, during which she sought solitude in the North Wessex Downs while beginning her gender transition.		0:17:09 (Pop-up)
Sonic Youth	I Dreamed I Dream "I Dreamed I Dream" by "Sonic Youth"	Sonic Youth	Universal	1982	Originally an instrumental, the band eventually added random lyrics. Kim Gordon recalled in her 2015 memoir Girl In a Band: "All of us. I remember, wrote down lines on a piece of paper, and when it came time to overdub the vocal, I randomly cherry-picked from the list. It's a way of working. I sometimes still use. We told the sound engineer we wanted a big bass sound, like Johnny Rotten's post Sex Pistols band, Public Image Ltd. I whispered my vocals and Lee Ranaldo added his own vocal accompaniment."		0:25:08 (Pop-up)
Siouxsie & The Banshees	The Humming Wires	Downside Up [B-Sides & Rarities Box Set]	Polydor / Wonderland	1984	[Steven] Severin: "I'd worked up the keyboard parts on a home demo the night before we went into the studio. Budgie replaced the minimal drumbox with a fantastic travelling beat then Siouxsie and I added guitar parts. We'd just seen Glenn Branca at the Riverside and I wanted lots of de-tuned guitar tracks battling each other. We created the arrangement by just pulling out the guitars in the middle to give Siouxsie room to sing."		0:30:16 (Pop-up)
Liars	New Planet New Undoings "New Planet New Undoings" by "Liars"	The Apple Drop	Mute	2021	Angus Andrew: "I always imagine this as kind of the ghost of the record. Looking back, it appears in this way where it floats in at the end. [It makes] talking about the past more of a recollection of how things occurred, and what I would have done differently had I been more aware. So it’s supposed to leave you with this chill." Liars Bandcamp		0:34:39 (Pop-up)
Plelth	Loading "Loading" by "Plelth"	Curselvania 47	Bandcamp Self Release	2022	New! 4 days old! "It's a fake soundtrack to a non-existent video game." Solo project from a Toronto 'experimentalist' composer Alex J Squire. Plelth Bandcamp	*	0:37:13 (Pop-up)
Plelth	Title Screen "Title Screen" by "Plelth"	Curselvania 47	Bandcamp Self Release	2022	Alex J. Squire professes that this release is his favourite thing he has done yet. Find it free for download: Plelth Bandcamp	*	0:37:38 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Plelth	A Day In The Village / Too Many Wolfmans / Swamp Skulls / Searching In The Dark / Ok Skeletons, Enough / Typing A Letter On The Beach / Safety In The Desert	Curselvania 47	Bandcamp Self Release	2022	Presumably, after "Loading" and seeing the "Title Screen" of this imaginary game; you will be experiencing "A Day In The Village", then many monstrous encounters will take place with occasional desert/beach/wood respites, a visit to a tavern, a divorce, and eventually a win. Plelth Bandcamp	*	0:38:25 (Pop-up)
Uranium Club	Flashback Arrestor "Flashback Arrestor" by "Uranium Club"	The Cosmo Cleaners	Static Shock Records	2019	This band is from Minneapolis. Uranium Club play a kind of minimalist, agitated, catchy punk rock that reminds us of Wire before they released 'Pink Flag', but with an extra snotty attitude and bundles of energy.		0:43:39 (Pop-up)
Ludus	I Can't Swim I Have Nightmares	The Visit/Seduction	LTM Recordings	1982	The band was founded in Manchester in 1978 by Linder Sterling, who in the arts and music scene is credited as Linder, having designed the cover of Buzzcocks' single "Orgasm Addict" and Magazine's debut album Real Life; and Arthur Kadmon, formerly of Manicured Noise. Shortly after the formation, ex-Nosebleeds drummer Philip "Toby" Tomanov and bassist Willie Trotter joined to complete the band. It debuted live at the Factory Club, supporting The Pop Group, in October 1978, recording a studio demo the same month. The following month, Ludus played shows at well-known 'punk' venues like Eric's Club in Liverpool and, travelling with Magazine, The Venue in London.		0:47:10 (Pop-up)
Joe Byrd And The Field Hippies	You Can't Ever Come Down	The American Metaphysical Circus	Sony Music	1969	The American Metaphysical Circus is a 1969 album by Joseph "Joe" Byrd. It was recorded after his departure from the band The United States of America, and featured some of the earliest recorded work in rock music extensively utilizing synthesizers and vocoder, along with an extended group of West Coast studio musicians Byrd named "The Field Hippies". Among the musicians featured on the record are prominent West Coast studio musicians Tom Scott and the late Ted Greene, who is credited with the album's stellar guitar work in one of his few recorded appearances. Meyer Hirsch was a member of the Buddy Rich Big Band and is an experimental composer. Vocalist Victoria Bond has gone on to a prominent career as a classical composer, conductor and vocalist.		0:52:50 (Pop-up)
Mandy, Indiana	Nike of Samothrace	...	Fire Talk	2021	Much of Mandy, Indiana’s power lies in Caulfield’s shapeshifting, hammer-to-the-head vocals. Amid the formless noise and swelling synths of “Nike of Samothrace,” her adrenaline skyrockets as she attempts to dissuade a second, silent character—maybe a creepy man at last call—from following her home at night. “J’suis une grande fille, je sais où je vais, j’me perdrai pas” (“I’m a big girl, I know where I’m going, I won’t get lost”) In case you were wondering, Samothrace (also known as Samothraki, Greek: Σαμοθράκη, [samoˈθraci]) is a Greek island in the northern Aegean Sea. It is a municipality within the Evros regional unit of Thrace. The island is 17 km (11 mi) long and is 178 km2 (69 sq mi) in size and has a population of 2,859 (2011 census). Its main industries are fishing and tourism.		0:55:52 (Pop-up)
The Serfs	Vanishing Act "Vanishing Act" by "The Serfs"	Sounds Of Serfdom	Wasted Tapes	2019	The Serfs draw dark influence from a potent moment in ’70s Post Punk and New Wave, when synthesizers began to dominate the landscape and minimalism became the watchword of the day. It’s not hard to draw straight lines from The Serfs to giants of the cutting-edge synth movement of the late ’70s — Joy Division, A Certain Ratio, Cabaret Voltaire, Tubeway Army, The Units and early Devo all surface in some form or fashion in the band’s sonic architecture. This would all be little more than genre window-dressing without good songs and the Serfs have that well covered, as their songwriting is as impressive as their apparent record collections.		0:59:05 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Debit	First Day "First Day" by "Debit"	The Long Count	Modern Love	2022	Delia Beatriz stands at a unique intersection in electronic music. As Debit, the Monterrey, Mexico-born, New York-based producer, DJ, audio engineer and live artist has released feverish club music, fusing the triplet rhythms of tribal guarachero with industrial techno grit. She has simultaneously explored the outer reaches of ambient music, with a taste for intoxicating dissonance		1:02:41 (Pop-up)
Crass	Health Surface "Health Surface" by "Crass"	Penis Envy	Crass Records	1981	Sung by Joy De Vivre. "The album's name is a nod to some of Freud's ideas concerning sexuality. This album marked a departure from the "macho, hardcore" sounds heard on previous Crass albums, featuring more complex musical arrangements, and exclusively female vocals (those of Joy De Vivre and Eve Libertine). The album addressed issues of feminism and attacked institutions of "the system" such as marriage and sexual oppression. The album was banned by the retailer HMV, and The Greater Manchester Police seized copies of it, along with other Crass albums and Dead Kennedys material, from Eastern Bloc record shop. Its owner, Frank Schofield, was charged with "Displaying obscene articles for publication for gain". As well as this, the band Flux Of Pink Indians, Crass' labels, and their publishing company were all charged on the grounds of the Obscene Publications Act. The heavy costs incurred by this would eventually contribute to the band's demise." Find it here: Crass Bandcamp: Penis Envy		1:12:03 (Pop-up)
The Chinese Stars	The Plague "The Plague" by "The Chinese Stars"	Release The Bats: The Birthday Party As Heard Through The Meat Grinder Of Three One G	Three One G	2006	This rarity from The Birthday Party (written by Tracy Pew & never officially released) gets a likewise rare workover from Providence, Rhode Island's "The Chinese Stars." From a tribute album shared w/ SSion, Les Georges Leningrad, Melt-Banana and Numbers, to name a few.		1:15:38 (Pop-up)
The Third Eye Foundation	Do The Crawl	Wake The Dead	Ici d’Ailleurs	2018	The Third Eye Foundation is the project of Matt Elliott, originally from Bristol, England and now based in France. "Matt Elliott's work as the Third Eye Foundation melds layers of droning noise with clattering drums and harrowing samples, resulting in disturbing yet captivating reflections of a life plagued by fear and hopelessness. Elliott originated from Bristol, England, and his work has combined influences from the city's space rock, drum'n'bass, and trip-hop scenes. He'll often combine supremely fast, chopped-to-smithereens breaks with other drums or samples that are heavily slowed down or stretched out, producing an extremely disorienting effect. Following a burst of activity resulting in several acclaimed albums, singles, and remixes from 1996 to the beginning of the 21st century, Elliott put the Foundation on hold and focused on writing downcast, experimental folk-influenced songs under his own name, but he's revived the project on occasion." The Third Eye Foundation [Bandcamp]		1:19:39 (Pop-up)
Horace Andy	Safe From Harm "Safe From Harm" by "Horace Andy"	Midnight Rocker	On-U Sound	2022	Full album releases tomorrow Apr 8. "Today, at 71 years old, Horace Andy’s voice endures. Time has been kind to the crystal clear tone that has served him throughout his 50+ year career; his latest, Midnight Rocker, is full of soulful cuts with production by British dub pioneer Adrian Sherwood..." "...In a nod to his Massive Attack collaborators, Andy turns up with a laid-back, earnest cover of “Safe From Harm,” syncopating the original’s rolling, sampled bassline while he reinterprets Shara Nelson’s iconic lead vocal. For his part, Sherwood honors the character and distinctiveness of Andy’s voice by presenting it alongside relatively uncomplicated production and arrangements. Occasionally there are some welcome flourishes of delay that remind us that Sherwood is among the great living dubmasters, particularly skilled at enhancing a recording with dub signature effects."

EXEK	(I'm After) Your Best Interest	Advertise Here	Castle Face	2022	Excellently, Melbourne, Australia's EXEK describe themselves as "Post-punk we suppose" on their BC page.

Plelth	Random Corvette Shows Up "Random Corvette Shows Up" by "Plelth"	Curselvania 47	Bandcamp Self Release	2022	This definitely sounds, to me, like the hit from the Curselvania "soundtrack"...

The Meridian Brothers	Cumbia De La Relicario	Cumbia Siglio XXI	Bongo Joe	2020	You know Babs is obsessed with a band if they appear two weeks in a row. This is the happiest of jaunty fever dream moments. Let us float away on a happy, wonky cumbia cloud....Meridian Brothers formed in 1998, in Bogotá.
Hierophants	Shoemaker Levy 9 "Shoemaker Levy 9" by "Hierophants"	Spitting Out Moonlight	Anti Fade Records	2019	Hierophants, not to be confused with the non-plural Italian metal band Hierophant, is made up of members from Ausmuteants, Alien Nosejob, School Damage, Parsnip, Orb and Traffik Island. A few bigwigs in one band. They play jittery, nervous post-punk/new wave-inspired indie rock. Their simple, catchy songs feature buzzing organ and a thin layer of echo, along with lyrics expressing stress and frustration.
Midnight Sister	Sirens "Sirens" by "Midnight Sister"	Painting The Roses	Jajaguwar	2020	Inside the velvet-lined world of Midnight Sister, Juliana Giraffe and Ari Balouzian party like it’s 1972. The Los Angeles nu-disco duo make lush, seductive glam rock informed by their respective fields: Lead vocalist Giraffe is a filmmaker and visual artist, and composer Balouzian writes movie scores. Their visually rich approach draws on a pile of colorful references, among them vaudeville, glitter rock, and Lynchian melodrama.
Music behind DJ: Dear Laika	Phlebotomy "Phlebotomy" by "Dear Laika"	Pluperfect Mind	NNA Tapes	2021	A consistent theme of the album is isolation, both from other people and from parts of herself, and the intention to overcome anxieties and reconnect. Pluperfect Mind also chronicles aspects of Izzy’s own transgender experience, from the painful tedium of waiting for hormone treatment to the elation of finally inhabiting a body that feels right. It captures the sense of being cast adrift between an uncomfortable past and an uncertain future, living outside of heteronormativity and caught in “queer time”. Izzy’s mercurial songwriting aims to suspend the perception of time, allowing the listener to inhabit an immersive half-lit world of mystical landscapes, volatile atmospheres and shifting rhythms.
MGMT	Flash Delirium "Flash Delirium" by "MGMT"	Congratulations	Sony	2010	We find it shocking that a search shows this has never been played on WFMU. Misunderstood by critics and fans expecting a very different album, Congratulations stands as a masterpiece of modern psych, one that predates...and perhaps inspires the last wave of psych revival. This album is perfect, this song is fucking epic.

	♥ 8:31pm DJ Babs: LOL. I have an exclaim here andI can't bear to read it!
	8:32pm Tyler: Nice Louvin Brothers reference on this album title. Sounds like they've been drinkin' the same moonshine as Mark E. and Billy Childish
	8:32pm Mr Fab: bit of Joy division's "Digital" they threw in there.
	🏝 ♥ 8:33pm Derek Westerholm: ^ Contrary to Babs' comment a little while above, I'm not so sure my sets are... Fun... Nor necessarily recommended listening if you're sick. They were definitely helping me to delve into the world of fever dreams, though.
	♥ 8:33pm DJ Babs: yes, which makes it EVEN BETTER
	8:33pm Tyler: @Mr. Fab - right you are!
	🏝 ♥ 8:34pm Derek Westerholm: "A little while above"?? A little while ago + a little ways above - needless extra words = "A little while above."
	8:35pm Tyler: Talking Heads have a song called 'Thank You For Sending Me An Angel' (I think)
	8:36pm Tyler: 'Weak Instruments' is a great band name :)
	🏝 ♥ 8:36pm Derek Westerholm: Tyler, yes, true! Toronto's The Constantines covered it on a b-side, too!

	♥ 8:38pm Zipperhead7: Worst fever dream I ever had was that I was climbing a pillar covered with tongues. Yuck!
	8:39pm Tyler: <3 Glenn Branca. Wish he would tour that 20 Guitar orchestra.
	8:40pm Mr Fab: well, Tyler, since Branca's dead, that would perhaps not be the ideal show.
	8:40pm DJ Nico: Hiya Beachers!
	8:40pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: SY!!!!
	8:40pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Hey DJ Nico.
	♥ 8:41pm DJ Babs: Hi NIco! And yes Tyler WEAK INSTRUMENTALS IS A GREAT BAND MAME
	8:41pm Tyler: @Mr Fab - Oh, wow. I didn't hear about him passing. Sorry to hear.
	8:41pm DJ Nico: Babs, Derek, Cam 👋🏽
	♥ 8:41pm DJ Babs: @Mr Fab well it would be interesting!
	8:43pm Mr Fab: "Dead On Stage: Glen Branca!"
	♥ 8:44pm Zipperhead7: Maybe they could do a hologram thing, like Tupac
	🏝 ♥ 8:44pm Derek Westerholm: Hi Nico!
	8:44pm Mr Fab: I saw him and his 100-guitar army. Mike Watt was one of the 15 bassists. Such a hurricane-squall of sound. Leaning back in my chair was like lying on one of those vibrating-fingers motel beds.
	♥ 8:45pm DJ Babs: wooow! I love that feeling!!
	8:45pm Tyler: Hologram Branca. I think later on he usually wrote & conducted, didn't play anyway, so they could do a tour of remaining members of his orchestra. I do also love the stuff he did in 'Theoretical Girls'.
	8:46pm Tyler: SY brought the dream to the fever...
	♥ 8:46pm DJ Babs: I love that this is Siouxsie and the Banshees.
	8:47pm Tyler: The Siouxsie & The Banshees & The Cure B-Sides collections are full of gems.
	8:47pm Mr Fab: Savage Republic were one of the other great bands influenced by Branca. "Tragic Figures" is a classic - and BEFORE Sonic Youth's debut.
	♥ 8:48pm DJ Babs: ah tape echo fever dream vocals?
	🏝 ♥ 8:48pm Derek Westerholm: Tyler, agreed!
	8:49pm Mr Fab: true Tyler, when I saw that show, he wasn't playing. He was a Great Composer by this point. No punk club - this was at the posh Disney Concert Hall.
	🏝 ♥ 8:49pm Derek Westerholm: Mr. Fab, I will have to investigate! I have heard their name forever, but for some reason not really ever delved into them
	8:51pm Tyler: @Mr Fab - Wow - very cool & surreal that you saw him at the Disney Concert Hall. My only point of reference is seeing some cool bands play Kingswood Music Theatre at Canada's Wonderland and the first Lollapalooza tour - strange to see shadowy nightclub bands in the full blazing summer sun.
	8:51pm DJ Blush: listening to the show while playing the new spongebob square pants game and its a trip
	♥ 8:51pm DJ Babs: Derek you are very dreamy tonight...lol
	♥ 8:52pm DJ Babs: YES! THEN MY WORKHERE IS DONE!
	8:52pm Tyler: Derek & Babs are The Dream Warriors!
	8:52pm Mr Fab: you guys would LOVE Savage republic. like Sonic Youth's guitars/shouted vox, but with industrial percussion. Maybe because they were from LA, but they had a kind of surf/tropical feel to their tense, paranoid post-punk.
	♥ 8:52pm DJ Babs: Britt then this Plelth is for you!
	8:52pm Tyler: Meemoop is the Dream Catcher :)
	8:53pm Tyler: This reminds of stuff off this indie label Flagstaff Arizona who's label comp I bought in NYC.
	♥ 8:54pm DJ Babs: he is!
	8:59pm datafreq: Hey All Sorry for being late, Picard is on Thursday nites !
	8:59pm Tyler: @ Mr. Fab I'll have to check out Savage Republic - will just have to be careful I don't end up with Savage Garden :)

We've Got A Fuzzbox And We're Gonna Use It	Fever [Variable pitch]	What's The Point 7"	WEA	1987	A little pitch shifting makes this cover a bit woozier. Peggy Lee brought fame to the Otis Blackwell / Eddie J Cooley composition. May our extra warping of this delightful Fuzzbox version ease you into the world of fever dreams...		0:00:08 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Spectre	The Illness [Pitched down]	The Illness	WordSound	1995	Pitching the speed down for this classic from the "Illbient" genre. It gets heavier this way, deeper into your system... About the man behind Spectre: "Skiz Fernando Jr. started his career as a journalist. Writing articles in different fanzines or magazines like Rolling Stone, interviews and records' back cover, he published in 1994: "The New Beats : exploring the music, culture and attitudes of hip-hop" (Anchor Books). Thanks to 1000$ that he borrowed from the producer Bill Laswell, he founded Wordsound Recordings in December of the same year."		0:02:12 (Pop-up)
Kamikaze Palm Tree	Sharpie Smile "Sharpie Smile" by "Kamikaze Palm Tree"	Good Boy	Muddguts Records	2019	Dylan Hadley (White Fence) and Cole Berliner formed Kamikaze Palm Tree in their hometown of San Francisco in 2015. Being lifelong friends and collaborators, the duo imagined a debut album and performance that brings together their noise rock background, with the theatrical and the epic. With a penchant for the disparate, and psychedelic, the progression of their sound is far from linear. Kamikaze Palm Tree delivers an exciting and, above all, melodic mixture of psychedelia and post-punk.		0:05:28 (Pop-up)
Warmduscher	Eight Minute Machine "Eight Minute Machine" by "Warmduscher"	At The Hotspot	Bella Union	2022	In cities across the world stand ugly modern obelisks called hotspots. They provide WiFi, a speaker on which to make calls, a screen displaying weather information, and sockets to charge electronic devices. You can assume that the local authorities who installed them there see them as glossy and futuristic, a way of painting over the cracks in society that were symbolised by the dilapidated phone boxes that once stood in their place. Around the hotspots, however, have grown little micro-communities making use of the services, populated by the eccentric outsiders that local authorities are so keen to sweep under the rug. The relative anonymity with which they can be used attracts a certain type of activity. “It’s the same old story with a new twist,” says Warmduscher’s Ben Romans-Hopcraft. “You see these dishevelled looking people but with smartphones, and you realise they’re just trying to score, but through WhatsApp. This album was produced by Joe Goddard and Al Doyle of Hot Chip.	*	0:09:04 (Pop-up)
Iggy Pop	Funtime "Funtime" by "Iggy Pop"	The Idiot	Virgin Records	1977	Described by Pop as "a cross between James Brown and Kraftwerk", The Idiot marks a departure from the proto-punk of the Stooges to a more subdued, mechanical sound with electronic overtones. Recording for it began at the château in June 1976 and continued into July. Further sessions took place at Musicland Studios in Munich in August. Bowie composed most of the music and contributed a major portion of the instrumentation. Pop wrote most of the lyrics in response to the music Bowie was creating. The album's title was taken from Fyodor Dostoevsky's novel of the same name, while Erich Heckel's painting Roquairol inspired its artwork. NME's Nick Kent described the music as "totally rivetted and fettered to a thoroughly unhealthy aroma of evil and twilight zone zombie-time unease".Bowie biographer David Buckley called The Idiot "a funky, robotic Hellhole of an album".		0:11:28 (Pop-up)
Country Teasers	Thank You God for Making Me an Angel	Satan Is Real Again	Crypt Records	1996	There are not any reviews of this fine record, Country Teasers second offering, however this user review on a small website offers the following: "A ton of raw punk songs, while the instrumentation doesnt really bring anything amazing to the table, the raw energy of the shoddy recording quality combined with the deadpan delivery of politically charged lyrics mostly about social issues. This records biggest weakness truly is just weak instrumentals." STAND THERE IN YOUR WRONGNESS AND BE WRONG BECAUSE THIS ALBUM IS FUCKING GREAT.		0:14:28 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Dear Laika	Liilac Moon, Reflected Sun	Pluperfect Mind	NNA Tapes	2021	Pluperfect Mind, the label debut from the 23-year-old UK-based musician Dear Laika (a.k.a. Isabelle “Izzy” Thorn), is an extraordinary creation — a beautiful and singular oddity which exists in the liminal space between dreamworlds and a blurry, watercoloured version of reality. It is a reflection on the past few years of Izzy’s life, during which she sought solitude in the North Wessex Downs while beginning her gender transition.		0:17:09 (Pop-up)
Sonic Youth	I Dreamed I Dream "I Dreamed I Dream" by "Sonic Youth"	Sonic Youth	Universal	1982	Originally an instrumental, the band eventually added random lyrics. Kim Gordon recalled in her 2015 memoir Girl In a Band: "All of us. I remember, wrote down lines on a piece of paper, and when it came time to overdub the vocal, I randomly cherry-picked from the list. It's a way of working. I sometimes still use. We told the sound engineer we wanted a big bass sound, like Johnny Rotten's post Sex Pistols band, Public Image Ltd. I whispered my vocals and Lee Ranaldo added his own vocal accompaniment."		0:25:08 (Pop-up)
Siouxsie & The Banshees	The Humming Wires	Downside Up [B-Sides & Rarities Box Set]	Polydor / Wonderland	1984	[Steven] Severin: "I'd worked up the keyboard parts on a home demo the night before we went into the studio. Budgie replaced the minimal drumbox with a fantastic travelling beat then Siouxsie and I added guitar parts. We'd just seen Glenn Branca at the Riverside and I wanted lots of de-tuned guitar tracks battling each other. We created the arrangement by just pulling out the guitars in the middle to give Siouxsie room to sing."		0:30:16 (Pop-up)
Liars	New Planet New Undoings "New Planet New Undoings" by "Liars"	The Apple Drop	Mute	2021	Angus Andrew: "I always imagine this as kind of the ghost of the record. Looking back, it appears in this way where it floats in at the end. [It makes] talking about the past more of a recollection of how things occurred, and what I would have done differently had I been more aware. So it’s supposed to leave you with this chill."

Plelth	Loading "Loading" by "Plelth"	Curselvania 47	Bandcamp Self Release	2022	New! 4 days old! "It's a fake soundtrack to a non-existent video game." Solo project from a Toronto 'experimentalist' composer Alex J Squire. Plelth Bandcamp	*	0:37:13 (Pop-up)

Music behind DJ: Plelth	A Day In The Village / Too Many Wolfmans / Swamp Skulls / Searching In The Dark / Ok Skeletons, Enough / Typing A Letter On The Beach / Safety In The Desert	Curselvania 47	Bandcamp Self Release	2022	Presumably, after "Loading" and seeing the "Title Screen" of this imaginary game; you will be experiencing "A Day In The Village", then many monstrous encounters will take place with occasional desert/beach/wood respites, a visit to a tavern, a divorce, and eventually a win. Plelth Bandcamp	*	0:38:25 (Pop-up)
Uranium Club	Flashback Arrestor "Flashback Arrestor" by "Uranium Club"	The Cosmo Cleaners	Static Shock Records	2019	This band is from Minneapolis. Uranium Club play a kind of minimalist, agitated, catchy punk rock that reminds us of Wire before they released 'Pink Flag', but with an extra snotty attitude and bundles of energy.		0:43:39 (Pop-up)
Ludus	I Can't Swim I Have Nightmares	The Visit/Seduction	LTM Recordings	1982	The band was founded in Manchester in 1978 by Linder Sterling, who in the arts and music scene is credited as Linder, having designed the cover of Buzzcocks' single "Orgasm Addict" and Magazine's debut album Real Life; and Arthur Kadmon, formerly of Manicured Noise. Shortly after the formation, ex-Nosebleeds drummer Philip "Toby" Tomanov and bassist Willie Trotter joined to complete the band. It debuted live at the Factory Club, supporting The Pop Group, in October 1978, recording a studio demo the same month. The following month, Ludus played shows at well-known 'punk' venues like Eric's Club in Liverpool and, travelling with Magazine, The Venue in London.		0:47:10 (Pop-up)
Joe Byrd And The Field Hippies	You Can't Ever Come Down	The American Metaphysical Circus	Sony Music	1969	The American Metaphysical Circus is a 1969 album by Joseph "Joe" Byrd. It was recorded after his departure from the band The United States of America, and featured some of the earliest recorded work in rock music extensively utilizing synthesizers and vocoder, along with an extended group of West Coast studio musicians Byrd named "The Field Hippies". Among the musicians featured on the record are prominent West Coast studio musicians Tom Scott and the late Ted Greene, who is credited with the album's stellar guitar work in one of his few recorded appearances. Meyer Hirsch was a member of the Buddy Rich Big Band and is an experimental composer. Vocalist Victoria Bond has gone on to a prominent career as a classical composer, conductor and vocalist.		0:52:50 (Pop-up)
Mandy, Indiana	Nike of Samothrace	...	Fire Talk	2021	Much of Mandy, Indiana’s power lies in Caulfield’s shapeshifting, hammer-to-the-head vocals. Amid the formless noise and swelling synths of “Nike of Samothrace,” her adrenaline skyrockets as she attempts to dissuade a second, silent character—maybe a creepy man at last call—from following her home at night. “J’suis une grande fille, je sais où je vais, j’me perdrai pas” (“I’m a big girl, I know where I’m going, I won’t get lost”) In case you were wondering, Samothrace (also known as Samothraki, Greek: Σαμοθράκη, [samoˈθraci]) is a Greek island in the northern Aegean Sea. It is a municipality within the Evros regional unit of Thrace. The island is 17 km (11 mi) long and is 178 km2 (69 sq mi) in size and has a population of 2,859 (2011 census). Its main industries are fishing and tourism.		0:55:52 (Pop-up)
The Serfs	Vanishing Act "Vanishing Act" by "The Serfs"	Sounds Of Serfdom	Wasted Tapes	2019	The Serfs draw dark influence from a potent moment in ’70s Post Punk and New Wave, when synthesizers began to dominate the landscape and minimalism became the watchword of the day. It’s not hard to draw straight lines from The Serfs to giants of the cutting-edge synth movement of the late ’70s — Joy Division, A Certain Ratio, Cabaret Voltaire, Tubeway Army, The Units and early Devo all surface in some form or fashion in the band’s sonic architecture. This would all be little more than genre window-dressing without good songs and the Serfs have that well covered, as their songwriting is as impressive as their apparent record collections.		0:59:05 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Debit	First Day "First Day" by "Debit"	The Long Count	Modern Love	2022	Delia Beatriz stands at a unique intersection in electronic music. As Debit, the Monterrey, Mexico-born, New York-based producer, DJ, audio engineer and live artist has released feverish club music, fusing the triplet rhythms of tribal guarachero with industrial techno grit. She has simultaneously explored the outer reaches of ambient music, with a taste for intoxicating dissonance		1:02:41 (Pop-up)
Crass	Health Surface "Health Surface" by "Crass"	Penis Envy	Crass Records	1981	Sung by Joy De Vivre. "The album's name is a nod to some of Freud's ideas concerning sexuality. This album marked a departure from the "macho, hardcore" sounds heard on previous Crass albums, featuring more complex musical arrangements, and exclusively female vocals (those of Joy De Vivre and Eve Libertine). The album addressed issues of feminism and attacked institutions of "the system" such as marriage and sexual oppression. The album was banned by the retailer HMV, and The Greater Manchester Police seized copies of it, along with other Crass albums and Dead Kennedys material, from Eastern Bloc record shop. Its owner, Frank Schofield, was charged with "Displaying obscene articles for publication for gain". As well as this, the band Flux Of Pink Indians, Crass' labels, and their publishing company were all charged on the grounds of the Obscene Publications Act. The heavy costs incurred by this would eventually contribute to the band's demise." Find it here: Crass Bandcamp: Penis Envy		1:12:03 (Pop-up)
The Chinese Stars	The Plague "The Plague" by "The Chinese Stars"	Release The Bats: The Birthday Party As Heard Through The Meat Grinder Of Three One G	Three One G	2006	This rarity from The Birthday Party (written by Tracy Pew & never officially released) gets a likewise rare workover from Providence, Rhode Island's "The Chinese Stars." From a tribute album shared w/ SSion, Les Georges Leningrad, Melt-Banana and Numbers, to name a few.		1:15:38 (Pop-up)
The Third Eye Foundation	Do The Crawl	Wake The Dead	Ici d’Ailleurs	2018	The Third Eye Foundation is the project of Matt Elliott, originally from Bristol, England and now based in France. "Matt Elliott's work as the Third Eye Foundation melds layers of droning noise with clattering drums and harrowing samples, resulting in disturbing yet captivating reflections of a life plagued by fear and hopelessness. Elliott originated from Bristol, England, and his work has combined influences from the city's space rock, drum'n'bass, and trip-hop scenes. He'll often combine supremely fast, chopped-to-smithereens breaks with other drums or samples that are heavily slowed down or stretched out, producing an extremely disorienting effect. Following a burst of activity resulting in several acclaimed albums, singles, and remixes from 1996 to the beginning of the 21st century, Elliott put the Foundation on hold and focused on writing downcast, experimental folk-influenced songs under his own name, but he's revived the project on occasion." The Third Eye Foundation [Bandcamp]		1:19:39 (Pop-up)
Horace Andy	Safe From Harm "Safe From Harm" by "Horace Andy"	Midnight Rocker	On-U Sound	2022	Full album releases tomorrow Apr 8. "Today, at 71 years old, Horace Andy’s voice endures. Time has been kind to the crystal clear tone that has served him throughout his 50+ year career; his latest, Midnight Rocker, is full of soulful cuts with production by British dub pioneer Adrian Sherwood..." "...In a nod to his Massive Attack collaborators, Andy turns up with a laid-back, earnest cover of “Safe From Harm,” syncopating the original’s rolling, sampled bassline while he reinterprets Shara Nelson’s iconic lead vocal. For his part, Sherwood honors the character and distinctiveness of Andy’s voice by presenting it alongside relatively uncomplicated production and arrangements. Occasionally there are some welcome flourishes of delay that remind us that Sherwood is among the great living dubmasters, particularly skilled at enhancing a recording with dub signature effects."

Plelth	Random Corvette Shows Up "Random Corvette Shows Up" by "Plelth"	Curselvania 47	Bandcamp Self Release	2022	This definitely sounds, to me, like the hit from the Curselvania "soundtrack"...

The Meridian Brothers	Cumbia De La Relicario	Cumbia Siglio XXI	Bongo Joe	2020	You know Babs is obsessed with a band if they appear two weeks in a row. This is the happiest of jaunty fever dream moments. Let us float away on a happy, wonky cumbia cloud....Meridian Brothers formed in 1998, in Bogotá.
Hierophants	Shoemaker Levy 9 "Shoemaker Levy 9" by "Hierophants"	Spitting Out Moonlight	Anti Fade Records	2019	Hierophants, not to be confused with the non-plural Italian metal band Hierophant, is made up of members from Ausmuteants, Alien Nosejob, School Damage, Parsnip, Orb and Traffik Island. A few bigwigs in one band. They play jittery, nervous post-punk/new wave-inspired indie rock. Their simple, catchy songs feature buzzing organ and a thin layer of echo, along with lyrics expressing stress and frustration.
Midnight Sister	Sirens "Sirens" by "Midnight Sister"	Painting The Roses	Jajaguwar	2020	Inside the velvet-lined world of Midnight Sister, Juliana Giraffe and Ari Balouzian party like it’s 1972. The Los Angeles nu-disco duo make lush, seductive glam rock informed by their respective fields: Lead vocalist Giraffe is a filmmaker and visual artist, and composer Balouzian writes movie scores. Their visually rich approach draws on a pile of colorful references, among them vaudeville, glitter rock, and Lynchian melodrama.
Music behind DJ: Dear Laika	Phlebotomy "Phlebotomy" by "Dear Laika"	Pluperfect Mind	NNA Tapes	2021	A consistent theme of the album is isolation, both from other people and from parts of herself, and the intention to overcome anxieties and reconnect. Pluperfect Mind also chronicles aspects of Izzy’s own transgender experience, from the painful tedium of waiting for hormone treatment to the elation of finally inhabiting a body that feels right. It captures the sense of being cast adrift between an uncomfortable past and an uncertain future, living outside of heteronormativity and caught in “queer time”. Izzy’s mercurial songwriting aims to suspend the perception of time, allowing the listener to inhabit an immersive half-lit world of mystical landscapes, volatile atmospheres and shifting rhythms.
MGMT	Flash Delirium "Flash Delirium" by "MGMT"	Congratulations	Sony	2010	We find it shocking that a search shows this has never been played on WFMU. Misunderstood by critics and fans expecting a very different album, Congratulations stands as a masterpiece of modern psych, one that predates...and perhaps inspires the last wave of psych revival. This album is perfect, this song is fucking epic.

	8:20pm Tyler: Hi Britt!
	8:21pm Tyler: @Britt cool! That one slipped under my radar, but saw the review in Exclaim! today.
	♥ 8:21pm DJ Babs: I am very enamoured with this band.
	🏝 ♥ 8:22pm WR: Well alright, getting the F bomb up front and in full WFMU sheena's glory. Hi Dj Babs and Derek and streamers.
	♥ 8:22pm DJ Babs: Hello WR!!! Welcome!

	8:23pm Tyler: Lovin' the Vibes!
	8:24pm Tyler: Hi Derek!
	8:24pm DJ Blush: WoooO!
	♥ 8:24pm DJ Babs: Tonight's selections are rather fun, we had a reallky great time putting this set together! It's good if your sick or if you're stoned or if you just...are!
	8:26pm Tyler: Tonight's selections are brought to you by the number "0"
	8:26pm Tyler: FUN!
	8:27pm Mr Fab: "if you just...are" - that is SO me!
	8:28pm Tyler: WE'RE HAVING FUN!
	♥ 8:28pm DJ Babs: HAHA! We are having fun!!!
	8:28pm Andres: I enjoy those Exclaim concert reviews. They are also a kind of torture reminding me of all the shows I miss!
	8:29pm Tyler: My biggest beef with Toronto concerts - microscopic ad promoting the concert - 2 page review of the concert after-the-fact.
	♥ 8:31pm DJ Babs: LOL. I have an exclaim here andI can't bear to read it!
	8:32pm Tyler: Nice Louvin Brothers reference on this album title. Sounds like they've been drinkin' the same moonshine as Mark E. and Billy Childish
	8:32pm Mr Fab: bit of Joy division's "Digital" they threw in there.
	🏝 ♥ 8:33pm Derek Westerholm: ^ Contrary to Babs' comment a little while above, I'm not so sure my sets are... Fun... Nor necessarily recommended listening if you're sick. They were definitely helping me to delve into the world of fever dreams, though.
	♥ 8:33pm DJ Babs: yes, which makes it EVEN BETTER
	8:33pm Tyler: @Mr. Fab - right you are!
	🏝 ♥ 8:34pm Derek Westerholm: "A little while above"?? A little while ago + a little ways above - needless extra words = "A little while above."
	8:35pm Tyler: Talking Heads have a song called 'Thank You For Sending Me An Angel' (I think)
	8:36pm Tyler: 'Weak Instruments' is a great band name :)
	🏝 ♥ 8:36pm Derek Westerholm: Tyler, yes, true! Toronto's The Constantines covered it on a b-side, too!
	8:37pm Tyler: @derek As did Galaxie 500
	🏝 ♥ 8:38pm Derek Westerholm: I'm sure there have been others, too... haha. Will have to give the Galaxie 500 a listen
	♥ 8:38pm Zipperhead7: Worst fever dream I ever had was that I was climbing a pillar covered with tongues. Yuck!
	8:39pm Tyler: <3 Glenn Branca. Wish he would tour that 20 Guitar orchestra.
	8:40pm Mr Fab: well, Tyler, since Branca's dead, that would perhaps not be the ideal show.
	8:40pm DJ Nico: Hiya Beachers!
	8:40pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: SY!!!!
	8:40pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Hey DJ Nico.
	♥ 8:41pm DJ Babs: Hi NIco! And yes Tyler WEAK INSTRUMENTALS IS A GREAT BAND MAME
	8:41pm Tyler: @Mr Fab - Oh, wow. I didn't hear about him passing. Sorry to hear.
	8:41pm DJ Nico: Babs, Derek, Cam 👋🏽
	♥ 8:41pm DJ Babs: @Mr Fab well it would be interesting!
	8:43pm Mr Fab: "Dead On Stage: Glen Branca!"
	♥ 8:44pm Zipperhead7: Maybe they could do a hologram thing, like Tupac
	🏝 ♥ 8:44pm Derek Westerholm: Hi Nico!
	8:44pm Mr Fab: I saw him and his 100-guitar army. Mike Watt was one of the 15 bassists. Such a hurricane-squall of sound. Leaning back in my chair was like lying on one of those vibrating-fingers motel beds.
	♥ 8:45pm DJ Babs: wooow! I love that feeling!!
	8:45pm Tyler: Hologram Branca. I think later on he usually wrote & conducted, didn't play anyway, so they could do a tour of remaining members of his orchestra. I do also love the stuff he did in 'Theoretical Girls'.
	8:46pm Tyler: SY brought the dream to the fever...
	♥ 8:46pm DJ Babs: I love that this is Siouxsie and the Banshees.
	8:47pm Tyler: The Siouxsie & The Banshees & The Cure B-Sides collections are full of gems.
	8:47pm Mr Fab: Savage Republic were one of the other great bands influenced by Branca. "Tragic Figures" is a classic - and BEFORE Sonic Youth's debut.
	♥ 8:48pm DJ Babs: ah tape echo fever dream vocals?
	🏝 ♥ 8:48pm Derek Westerholm: Tyler, agreed!
	8:49pm Mr Fab: true Tyler, when I saw that show, he wasn't playing. He was a Great Composer by this point. No punk club - this was at the posh Disney Concert Hall.
	🏝 ♥ 8:49pm Derek Westerholm: Mr. Fab, I will have to investigate! I have heard their name forever, but for some reason not really ever delved into them
	8:51pm Tyler: @Mr Fab - Wow - very cool & surreal that you saw him at the Disney Concert Hall. My only point of reference is seeing some cool bands play Kingswood Music Theatre at Canada's Wonderland and the first Lollapalooza tour - strange to see shadowy nightclub bands in the full blazing summer sun.
	8:51pm DJ Blush: listening to the show while playing the new spongebob square pants game and its a trip
	♥ 8:51pm DJ Babs: Derek you are very dreamy tonight...lol
	♥ 8:52pm DJ Babs: YES! THEN MY WORKHERE IS DONE!
	8:52pm Tyler: Derek & Babs are The Dream Warriors!
	8:52pm Mr Fab: you guys would LOVE Savage republic. like Sonic Youth's guitars/shouted vox, but with industrial percussion. Maybe because they were from LA, but they had a kind of surf/tropical feel to their tense, paranoid post-punk.
	♥ 8:52pm DJ Babs: Britt then this Plelth is for you!
	8:52pm Tyler: Meemoop is the Dream Catcher :)
	8:53pm Tyler: This reminds of stuff off this indie label Flagstaff Arizona who's label comp I bought in NYC.
	♥ 8:54pm DJ Babs: he is!
	8:59pm datafreq: Hey All Sorry for being late, Picard is on Thursday nites !
	8:59pm Tyler: @ Mr. Fab I'll have to check out Savage Republic - will just have to be careful I don't end up with Savage Garden :)
	9:00pm Tyler: @datfreq Hi Dave! Make It So!
	♥ 9:01pm DJ Babs: Hi Datafreq! Welcome!
	🏝 ♥ 9:02pm WR: Uranium Club reminds me a bit of Pere Ubu
	🏝 ♥ 9:02pm Derek Westerholm: Hi Datafreq!
	🏝 ♥ 9:03pm Derek Westerholm: WR
	🏝 ♥ 9:03pm Derek Westerholm: Hello!
	♥ 9:04pm DJ Babs: Morissey once declared his love for Ludus...we won't hold it against them LOL
	9:05pm Mr Fab: Hello, Yoko, we salute you!
	9:07pm Andres: I like this Ludus too! Does this mean me and Morrissey agree on something?
	♥ 9:07pm DJ Babs: RIGHT!? This song is so epic and the yoko vocals just take it over the top!!
	♥ 9:07pm DJ Babs: and yes this is oe of the few cases where morrissey is right!
	9:08pm Tyler: Some of the vocalizing also reminds me of Bjork at her most unhinged.
	9:09pm DJ Blush: this song is awesome
	9:10pm Tyler: ...and ends in a Nuclear explosion
	9:11pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Oh wow - love this!!!
	♥ 9:12pm DJ Babs: Yes, it is the best tune on that record! I'm in love with this Mandy Indiana tune as well! It's so unsettling!
	9:12pm Tyler: I like the climbing/descending moog tones and thrashy drums
	♥ 9:13pm DJ Babs: The phat woinky bass is always a good thing.
	9:16pm Andres: I’m sure I’m not the only one that went looking on a map for Mandy, Indiana.
	♥ 9:16pm DJ Babs: You know I did Andres!!!
	♥ 9:17pm Ike: Meow?!?
	♥ 9:18pm DJ Babs: Hi Ike!
	🏝 ♥ 9:18pm Scott67: Haven't been chatting, cos I'm transfixed by listening to great music! Just gunna slam a Star on this sucker right now! ⭐👈😎🤙🍻
	🏝 ♥ 9:19pm Derek Westerholm: Aww, thanks Scott! Hi Ike! Andres, that's an excellent idea, I will be finding my way over to a map soon, myself.
	♥ 9:25pm Ike: It's Scott67! I'm guessing there's no torrential rain and howling wind in Aus like there is here.
	♥ 9:25pm DJ Babs: umm could you guys hear my voicover all the way? I'm afraid I didn't have the mic on properly...
	♥ 9:26pm DJ Babs: did you hear my joey ramone dream story?
	9:27pm Mr Fab: heard you loud n clear, Nurse Babs
	♥ 9:28pm DJ Babs: lol basically covid brain is very real. lol as this show will attest.
	♥ 9:29pm DJ Babs: oh phew! And nurse babs is 3/4 of her way through a bottle of cabernet franc and very happy about that, lol.
	9:30pm shellioh: sorry i’m late again!!!
	♥ 9:31pm DJ Babs: hi Shelli! It's nice to see ya! how are you doing?
	9:31pm shellioh: waking up from another accidental nap!
	♥ 9:31pm Zipperhead7: I hope Joey had long silvery hair
	9:31pm DJ Blush: hiiiii!
	♥ 9:32pm DJ Babs: naps are great! And yes, Joey had his black but also silvery hair. And he was very sweet!
	🏝 ♥ 9:32pm Derek Westerholm: Hi Shelli!
	9:32pm shellioh: digging this vibe!
	♥ 9:32pm DJ Babs: hahah tailor made for those sick and operating on a different plane...
	🏝 ♥ 9:33pm Derek Westerholm: Excellent, Shelli... Following this up w/ some more recent Third Eye Foundation... It's going to get a little further into this vibe, down the fever dream rabbit hole.
	9:34pm Otis: Thanks for the evening tunes B & D. Bye all!
	9:34pm shellioh: love third eye foundation!!!!
	9:35pm shellioh: ❤️❤️❤️
	🏝 ♥ 9:35pm Scott67: G'day Ike! Don't say that to Aitch mate. It's been relentless up in Sydney & further North. Repeated flooding for months.
	🏝 ♥ 9:37pm Scott67: Seeya Otis!😎🤙
	🏝 ♥ 9:37pm Derek Westerholm: Shellioh, agreed, I'm not sure if anyone out there makes music quite like The Third Eye Foundation.

	♥ 9:41pm DJ Babs: oh man scott so sorry to hear about the flooding that's crazy it is end of days times, I SWEAR
	9:41pm Andres: I have a small stack of Third Eye Foundation CDs. My wife does not care for them so they did not get a lot of play.
	🏝 ♥ 9:41pm Derek Westerholm: Andres lol
	♥ 9:41pm DJ Babs: ohh this is noice
	♥ 9:42pm DJ Babs: Hello Scobot! Thank you for joining us tonight! Always so happy to welcome a new Beacher to the chat party!
	♥ 9:43pm DJ Babs: lol @ Andres one thing I attribute to our happy household here is that we are pretty muc 100% aligned on music though Derek does roll his eyes at some of my things I'm sure..lol
	🏝 ♥ 9:43pm Derek Westerholm: I could see how, if one was not so much into Third Eye Foundation, that they could quite seriously not be into listening to it.
	9:44pm DJ Blush: Such a great show so far you guys, as always!
	🏝 ♥ 9:44pm Scott67: Sweet version mon!😎🤙🌈🦜🦋
	9:44pm Mr Fab: such an excellent version. Adrian Sherwood is up there with any of the Jamaican greats THERE I SAID IT.
