WFMU: Anti-Music Club with Land Phil: Playlist from July 10, 2023

Listener comments!
	3:03am Aitch: quiet voice for chorus here
	3:04am derekleif: Just wanted to say that yes, I love music, but so enjoy the late night DJ tendency to broadcast bits of dialogue from movies, and other spoken word gems.
	3:11am Aurwood: So good to hear Austin
	3:12am derekleif: Also ,by the way, please talk to us occasionally (I’m kinda new here, so I don’t know your show too well). It’s a lonely world, and alas, we are so divided. When I listen to DJs at this hour, there’s this feeling that I’m not alone, and besides listening to the Dj’s voice, I think about all the other people who are listening. Yes, maybe there are far fewer than are listening to the later DJs, for obvious reasons. Still though…it’s quality, not quantity. Not to take anything away from the pure day people who listen to Clay Pigeon at, say, about 8:30 on the way to work. I know many such people. At the same time, I’m a former night person who’s become an ultra day person. During the school year, I wake up wicked early, as they say here in New England, to work as a school librarian in lovely Lowell, Massachusetts, an hour’s drive from Beverly, where I live. Anyhoo, I just love this time of day when, for some, we’re at the tail end of the day while mine is just beginning, along with those of milk delivery folks, bakers, train conductors…you get the idea. So I like to think that there are a mix of these folks listening to these dulcet tones. Hello, people…nice to meet you.
	3:15am fred: ↳ derekleif @3:12 It may come as a shock to you as an American, but there are other countries, and this is prime listening hour in Europe writ large
	3:16am Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "Cedar Skeletons" by "Panopticon" This is quite beautiful actually . Heading for slumber. G'night
	3:16am derekleif: By the way, in the spirit of this music: has anyone seen “Sound of Metal” on Amazon Priime? It’s just amazing.
	3:16am Aurwood: ↳ Hubig Pie @3:16 Good night!!
	3:16am egould: ↳ Song: "Cedar Skeletons" by "Panopticon" Whooooo!!!!
	3:17am JReganK: ↳ fred @3:15 Not the same feeling as listening to some of the DJ's at night
	3:18am JReganK: ↳ derekleif @3:12 Nice to meet you earlier on the message board
	🤘 3:19am Spikey BXL: 🤘 good morning from Brussels, anti-music crowd, hey Phil
	3:21am JReganK: ↳ Spikey BXL @3:19 Bet you weren't expecting "Subway Wanker" radio earlier. Lol!
	3:27am JReganK: ↳ Song: "Grand Arsenal of Gore" by "New Standard Elite" That album cover will look great hanging in the den
	3:27am derekleif: Fred, I’m so sorry…lordy, I did that “America and nothing else” thing. Eddie Izzard talked about it when he discussed tthe way we Americans learn history. Basically, the way we hear it before we actually get other sources about this thing besides that social studies teacher who thinks America can do no wrong. There are, you know, other countries…countries which our constant thirst for more, more, and more have caused them to basically function as strip mines for the US, where we go in, take the good stuff, and leave the rest of the world with dirt. (and to an ultra conservative, if you’re listening: I know, I know….we’ve done good things, a lot of them under, well, Democrats: The War on Poverty domestically, and The Peace Corps internationally.) Sorry for doing that American thing. You’re 100 percent right, man. We good?
	🤘 3:27am Spikey BXL: ↳ JReganK @3:21 It's the first thing I heard when tuning in, quite the start of my work week indeed ;)
	🤘 3:28am Spikey BXL: from another old country, derekleif - we good
	3:29am JReganK: ↳ Spikey BXL @3:27 Fox is a trip
	3:29am derekleif: ….and by the way, so good to interact with folks from other countries. Wim Wenders said that one thing every American should do is travel and get to know the world. This, along with watching Wenders’s “Until the End of the World,” is the next best thing..
	3:30am Aurwood: ↳ Song: "Unsaturated Hunger and Esoteric Lust" by "SERPENT... So fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
	3:30am JReganK: ↳ derekleif @3:29 I'm more of a Fassbinder man, myself
	3:33am derekleif: The only Fassbender I saw was “Veronica Voss.” Good, good stuff.
	3:38am derekleif: Thanks so much for the kind words, Spiky….and does “BXL” mean Belgium? I just Googled the abbreviation (ever the school librarian), and if it’s Belgium indeed, what’s a good song, right now, from Belgium that I should listen to this instant (and to the DJ of this show…sorry it a step away for five minutes to listen).
	3:39am JReganK: ↳ derekleif @3:27 Don't be too hard on us. After all, we are very insulated from the rest of the world. Constantly bombarded by the most sophisticated propaganda machine in history. We're geographically large and our system often makes smaller countries pay for our economic mismanagement so we don't feel the full repercussions. In addition, we're often too exhausted from the pursuits of consumerism to look very far beyond our gilded cages.
	3:39am Paulo AD: What's up dudes :)
	3:40am Aitch: ↳ Paulo AD @3:39 Some americans have noticed there are other places, fascinating
	3:40am Paulo AD: ↳ fred @3:15 Prime time for the middle east
	🤘 3:41am Spikey BXL: ↳ derekleif @3:38 BXL is for Brussels, actually Bruxelles (the french version of the name) - i was born and bred in our lovely capital. My fave local stuff at the moment would have to be this: youtu.be... he's not just local to me, he's also a lookalike ;)
	3:41am Aitch: getting on for dinner-time down here
	3:41am Aurwood: BXL -> Bruxelles -> Brussels
	3:43am Paulo AD: ↳ Aitch @3:41 Don't, I'm starving. Back on my diet today :(
	3:43am Aurwood: ↳ Aitch @3:41 Bon appétit
	3:44am Aitch: ↳ Aurwood @3:43 maybe the DJ can give you a sprout-out?
	🤘 3:46am Spikey BXL: ↳ Aurwood @3:43 Aurwood is dom-tom?
	🤘 3:47am Bobby: Hello DJ and comments people
	3:51am Aurwood: ↳ Spikey BXL @3:46 No we operate under a statut particulier
	🤘 3:53am Spikey BXL: ↳ Aurwood @3:51 see derekleif - you don't have to be American to display geographical ignorance. Aurwood - you in Nouméa? Local or expat?
	3:53am derekleif: Aitch…just wanted to say that boy, I hope my post didn’t come across as a “American suddenly realizes rest of world, acts superior to other Americans while basically continuing their hyper consumerist lifestyle that causes them to blind themselves to their tacit endorsement of their basic rape of the world, while China also rapes the worlds and sells us all the stuff we buy.
	3:58am derekleif: And by the way, just to post a pet anxiety: China takes millions of tons of e waste each year. This goes to the rural areas, where people smash up the stuff to get the bits of gold on the computer components (maybe a grain of sand’s worth from each computer). The scraps of smashed computer contain lead. This gets into the groundwater and destroys the water table. They have to truck in water. There are 1.3 billion Chinese. The United States has a lot of water. I got this, by the way from the documentary “Manufactured Landscapes,” about photographer Edward Burtynsky (may have spelled name wrong), and his pieces of ways that humans have changed the landscape, often for the worse.
	4:03am derekleif: Landfill: a bit of trivia. Notorious murderer/cannibal Alfred Packer said of the jerky he made out of his companions: “I was sad to be found by rescuers, for I had grown fond of human flesh…particularly that about the ribs.”
	4:14am JReganK: ↳ Song: "An Affirming Flame" by "Burner" Nice bass tone!
	4:16am Aurwood: ↳ Song: "An Affirming Flame" by "Burner" That tracks is perfect
	4:16am fred: ↳ derekleif @3:27 I'm from France, a country which is in no position to lesson anyone, ever. My point was about time zones, DJs with undesirable slots can build a serious following over here, so never despair
	4:23am Aurwood: What was the new track and the band from an upcoming album the DJ mentions?
	4:30am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): Hey everyone! 🤘🏽🤘🏽
	4:39am bill hanke: WFMU could use more shows like this.
	4:41am bill hanke: u dumb fucks blathering on bout yr dumb life. listen to the music.
	4:48am derekleif: Ah, Bill, what can I tell ya…I kinda love blathering. I figure I’m doing less damage by posting to bulletin boards. I just love boards. Social media is just so….I don’t know, it’s too much. There’s something wonderfully nostalgic about a simple bulletin board where all a person can post is words and links to other things. It’s sort of a window back to the days of the release David Foster Wallace’s “Infinite Jest,” where every page had its own analogue hyperlinks in the form of over 100 pages of footnotes and errata.
	4:51am derekleif: So much of the text and spoken words online are fifteen second snippets of, well, not even thought…a fragment of the mind, not even the equivalent of a word…just a syllable, a shriek. So nice to read intelligent comments. I can only hope that mine are worth the space they take up, and the time it takes a person to read them. They’re never getting that time back, dontcha know….I hope they don’t feel as if they wasted time on me.
	5:00am JReganK: ↳ derekleif @4:51 You are a trip, Sir!
	5:00am Strandlund: Good Morning Land Phil and all those tuned in...
	5:02am derekleif: A STORY IN ONE POST: Bill posted that I should stop writing about my life and listen to the music. I did. The man was a genius. Suddenly, the truth of the statement froze right there, on the bulletin board, like the naked lunch at the end of the fork that William Burroughs discussed in the introduction to the book, that moment suspended in time. God, I thought, why not just listen to the music and type at the same time? I typed, and I thought of people smashing heads into other heads. What made it totally appropriate to the music was that these heads did not belong to the people who smashed them together. Those heads had come from funeral homes, and the bodies of nasty children who woke up decapitated on Christmas morning. Because that was what Bill Hanke’s post did to me: it forced me to acknowledge the evil elf who’s had enough of the those kids who bully others because of their choice to be what they want to be, including the prefix “they.” I posted my post. Older. Wiser. More potent.
	5:10am JReganK: ↳ derekleif @5:02 Post On!
	🤘 5:15am Spikey BXL: ↳ Strandlund @5:00 Morning Strandlund!
	🤘 5:16am Spikey BXL: ↳ JReganK @5:10 seconded!
	5:17am derekleif: Thanks so much, JReganK. I love writing in little snippets of maybe 300 words tops. I think it’s the writing style of the 21st Century: paragraphs of three sentences tops, and tight, simple prose that hurtles down the screen (because it’s not a page, it’s a screen). Today’s writing gets just about this much space. People are reluctant to even scroll a bit. About the most I can get away with is four screens of this drivel before a person cries “enough, enough.” As it is, there’s different lengths for different mediums. Bulletin board posts need to be shorter, as longer posts tend to make a person think “oh, no…another long, crazy post from someone who’s been on TikTok for too long, and who, after not thinking a rational, complete thought for a few hours, is now trying to upload their brain’s frantic attempt to store the miniature plotlets of close to 700 videos with beginnings, climaxes, and then, before even a denouement, an abrupt end, leaving the consumer literally starved for story.
	5:21am derekleif: I think my main goal in life, or one of them, at least, ought to be to somehow get 100,000 people to Venmo a buck to @derekleif. Then I can spend my life waking up at 2 or so and posting things that comment on the music and life in general. And I’d just like to say thanks to Spikey BXL for posting that extremely cool link to a tasty piece of Belgian music.
	5:24am Strandlund: ↳ Spikey BXL @5:15 Good Morning Spikey!! I hope you're having a good day!!
	5:25am derekleif: Morning Strandlund!
	5:25am JReganK: I see your point. Reading is exhausting for those out of practice and seemingly redundant when you consider the amount of info goes into visual media. A picture being worth a thousand words etc.. I believe that overall, you will find very intelligent people here that can absorb and appreciate an expanded volume of the written word.
	🤘 5:26am Spikey BXL: ↳ Strandlund @5:24 Extremely busy three days ahead, the final ones before the summer lull kicks in. But no complaints.
	5:28am derekleif: And you know, JReganK, the actual piece of writing doesn’t have to be that long to say something worth reading. As a librarian, I have one request of a piece of writing, followed by one of two further requests: 1-Get my attention 2-If it’s fiction, make me say “and then what happened?” 3-If it’s non-fiction, make me say “what else?”
	5:29am JReganK: ↳ derekleif @5:17 Hell, I like it. Then again, I'm a mutant
	5:33am derekleif: Spikey BXL, I just wanted to say, as a librarian, that it’s so nice to have a person on this board who comes from Belgium, the country that gave us Jacques Brel, Rubens, Audrey Hepburn (who was born there, even though she grew up in England), Jan and Pieter Brueghel, Magritte, and, of course, last but by no means least, the very kind and talented Jean Claude Van Damme. Now I wanna visit Belgium.
	5:34am derekleif: …Good God, the bounty of Belgium just becomes more and more apparent with research. The creators of BOTH Tintin AND The Smurfs are Belgian. I had no idea.
	5:35am JReganK: We know who Jacques Brel was around here
	5:35am Strandlund: ↳ derekleif @5:25 Good Morning derekleif!!
	5:38am Aurwood: ↳ Song: "Dallas Beltway" by "Chat Pile" I just bought their album on bandcamp because of tha track thank you Phil
	5:46am admiral crisp: Surprised our hadn’t heard of chat pile they had a moment when their record came out
	🤘 5:47am Spikey BXL: ↳ derekleif @5:34 not to mention the saxophone ;)
	5:48am dictater: nice to hear someone playing Unseen, such a tragically overlooked band. Shout out to Vincenzo.
	5:53am derekleif: Lanky, Lizard, Spikey, is there no end to the treasures of Belgium. Adoplphe Sax…how could I not know of the existence of the fine, upstanding Belgian who invented the instrument named after him? Who needs to spend thousands and thousands of dollars studying abroad in Belgium and having great late night conversations when I can just go to this board? Alas, it’s time to get dressed….almost 6AM here in the easternmost USA.
	5:54am derekleif: …and deepest apologies…the proper expression, gleaned from Francesca Lia Block’s novel Weetzie Bat’s title character, is “Lanky Lizards!”
	5:55am Aurwood: ↳ Song: "The Master Butcher's Apron" by "Carcass" 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
	🤘 5:59am Spikey BXL: Thanks Phil and great making your acquaintance derekleif - have a great day and hope to see you again.
	5:59am Aurwood: Thank you Phil xx the set was immaculate!!!

This goes to the rural areas, where people smash up the stuff to get the bits of gold on the computer components (maybe a grain of sand’s worth from each computer). The scraps of smashed computer contain lead. This gets into the groundwater and destroys the water table. They have to truck in water. There are 1.3 billion Chinese. The United States has a lot of water. I got this, by the way from the documentary “Manufactured Landscapes,” about photographer Edward Burtynsky (may have spelled name wrong), and his pieces of ways that humans have changed the landscape, often for the worse.
	4:03am derekleif: Landfill: a bit of trivia. Notorious murderer/cannibal Alfred Packer said of the jerky he made out of his companions: “I was sad to be found by rescuers, for I had grown fond of human flesh…particularly that about the ribs.”
	4:14am JReganK: ↳ Song: "An Affirming Flame" by "Burner" Nice bass tone!
	4:16am Aurwood: ↳ Song: "An Affirming Flame" by "Burner" That tracks is perfect
	4:16am fred: ↳ derekleif @3:27 I'm from France, a country which is in no position to lesson anyone, ever. My point was about time zones, DJs with undesirable slots can build a serious following over here, so never despair
	4:23am Aurwood: What was the new track and the band from an upcoming album the DJ mentions?
	4:30am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): Hey everyone! 🤘🏽🤘🏽
	4:39am bill hanke: WFMU could use more shows like this.
	4:41am bill hanke: u dumb fucks blathering on bout yr dumb life. listen to the music.
	4:48am derekleif: Ah, Bill, what can I tell ya…I kinda love blathering. I figure I’m doing less damage by posting to bulletin boards. I just love boards. Social media is just so….I don’t know, it’s too much. There’s something wonderfully nostalgic about a simple bulletin board where all a person can post is words and links to other things. It’s sort of a window back to the days of the release David Foster Wallace’s “Infinite Jest,” where every page had its own analogue hyperlinks in the form of over 100 pages of footnotes and errata.
	4:51am derekleif: So much of the text and spoken words online are fifteen second snippets of, well, not even thought…a fragment of the mind, not even the equivalent of a word…just a syllable, a shriek. So nice to read intelligent comments. I can only hope that mine are worth the space they take up, and the time it takes a person to read them. They’re never getting that time back, dontcha know….I hope they don’t feel as if they wasted time on me.
	5:00am JReganK: ↳ derekleif @4:51 You are a trip, Sir!
	5:00am Strandlund: Good Morning Land Phil and all those tuned in...
	5:02am derekleif: A STORY IN ONE POST: Bill posted that I should stop writing about my life and listen to the music. I did. The man was a genius. Suddenly, the truth of the statement froze right there, on the bulletin board, like the naked lunch at the end of the fork that William Burroughs discussed in the introduction to the book, that moment suspended in time. God, I thought, why not just listen to the music and type at the same time? I typed, and I thought of people smashing heads into other heads. What made it totally appropriate to the music was that these heads did not belong to the people who smashed them together. Those heads had come from funeral homes, and the bodies of nasty children who woke up decapitated on Christmas morning. Because that was what Bill Hanke’s post did to me: it forced me to acknowledge the evil elf who’s had enough of the those kids who bully others because of their choice to be what they want to be, including the prefix “they.” I posted my post. Older. Wiser. More potent.
	5:10am JReganK: ↳ derekleif @5:02 Post On!
	🤘 5:15am Spikey BXL: ↳ Strandlund @5:00 Morning Strandlund!
	🤘 5:16am Spikey BXL: ↳ JReganK @5:10 seconded!
	5:17am derekleif: Thanks so much, JReganK. I love writing in little snippets of maybe 300 words tops. I think it’s the writing style of the 21st Century: paragraphs of three sentences tops, and tight, simple prose that hurtles down the screen (because it’s not a page, it’s a screen). Today’s writing gets just about this much space. People are reluctant to even scroll a bit. About the most I can get away with is four screens of this drivel before a person cries “enough, enough.” As it is, there’s different lengths for different mediums. Bulletin board posts need to be shorter, as longer posts tend to make a person think “oh, no…another long, crazy post from someone who’s been on TikTok for too long, and who, after not thinking a rational, complete thought for a few hours, is now trying to upload their brain’s frantic attempt to store the miniature plotlets of close to 700 videos with beginnings, climaxes, and then, before even a denouement, an abrupt end, leaving the consumer literally starved for story.
	5:21am derekleif: I think my main goal in life, or one of them, at least, ought to be to somehow get 100,000 people to Venmo a buck to @derekleif. Then I can spend my life waking up at 2 or so and posting things that comment on the music and life in general. And I’d just like to say thanks to Spikey BXL for posting that extremely cool link to a tasty piece of Belgian music.
	5:24am Strandlund: ↳ Spikey BXL @5:15 Good Morning Spikey!! I hope you're having a good day!!
	5:25am derekleif: Morning Strandlund!
	5:25am JReganK: I see your point. Reading is exhausting for those out of practice and seemingly redundant when you consider the amount of info goes into visual media. A picture being worth a thousand words etc.. I believe that overall, you will find very intelligent people here that can absorb and appreciate an expanded volume of the written word.
	🤘 5:26am Spikey BXL: ↳ Strandlund @5:24 Extremely busy three days ahead, the final ones before the summer lull kicks in. But no complaints.
	5:28am derekleif: And you know, JReganK, the actual piece of writing doesn’t have to be that long to say something worth reading. As a librarian, I have one request of a piece of writing, followed by one of two further requests: 1-Get my attention 2-If it’s fiction, make me say “and then what happened?” 3-If it’s non-fiction, make me say “what else?”
	5:29am JReganK: ↳ derekleif @5:17 Hell, I like it. Then again, I'm a mutant
	5:33am derekleif: Spikey BXL, I just wanted to say, as a librarian, that it’s so nice to have a person on this board who comes from Belgium, the country that gave us Jacques Brel, Rubens, Audrey Hepburn (who was born there, even though she grew up in England), Jan and Pieter Brueghel, Magritte, and, of course, last but by no means least, the very kind and talented Jean Claude Van Damme. Now I wanna visit Belgium.
	5:34am derekleif: …Good God, the bounty of Belgium just becomes more and more apparent with research. The creators of BOTH Tintin AND The Smurfs are Belgian. I had no idea.
	5:35am JReganK: We know who Jacques Brel was around here
	5:35am Strandlund: ↳ derekleif @5:25 Good Morning derekleif!!
	5:38am Aurwood: ↳ Song: "Dallas Beltway" by "Chat Pile" I just bought their album on bandcamp because of tha track thank you Phil
	5:46am admiral crisp: Surprised our hadn’t heard of chat pile they had a moment when their record came out
	🤘 5:47am Spikey BXL: ↳ derekleif @5:34 not to mention the saxophone ;)
	5:48am dictater: nice to hear someone playing Unseen, such a tragically overlooked band. Shout out to Vincenzo.
	5:53am derekleif: Lanky, Lizard, Spikey, is there no end to the treasures of Belgium. Adoplphe Sax…how could I not know of the existence of the fine, upstanding Belgian who invented the instrument named after him? Who needs to spend thousands and thousands of dollars studying abroad in Belgium and having great late night conversations when I can just go to this board? Alas, it’s time to get dressed….almost 6AM here in the easternmost USA.
	5:54am derekleif: …and deepest apologies…the proper expression, gleaned from Francesca Lia Block’s novel Weetzie Bat’s title character, is “Lanky Lizards!”
	5:55am Aurwood: ↳ Song: "The Master Butcher's Apron" by "Carcass" 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
	🤘 5:59am Spikey BXL: Thanks Phil and great making your acquaintance derekleif - have a great day and hope to see you again.
	5:59am Aurwood: Thank you Phil xx the set was immaculate!!!
