Lulu Lewis	Ready? "Ready?" by "Lulu Lewis"	Dyscopia	Illegalia Records	2022	Oh this has EVERYTHING I like. When that twangy guitar comes in? Pfft. Lulu Lewis is Dylan Hundley & Pablo Martin (Tom Tom Club, The Du-Rites). "Think Siouxsie, but also Dinah Cancer, a distinction made to underscore an affinity with punk’s pre- hardcore days, when the form was far less rigidly defined" (The Vinyl District) Their sophomore LP, Dyscopia, ranked Number #1 Album of 2022 by Evan "Funk" Davies of WFMU. "The pandemic and the war are the true starters of the 21st Century. This album was written during these times. This is a conceptual album, although no clear story or characters are presented. You, the listener, are the main character. Dyscopia is the environment you have to walk across. Dyscopia is music; music is an experience. There is disco music in Dyscopia. Dyscopia is not a disco album We are not good at writing happy lyrics. A song in Dyscopia can be bright or dark, depending on what you are paying attention to. You can have the same experience while listening to ABBA. There is no contradiction. Pablo almost died of COVID-19 while making this album; Dylan, lost her sense of smell. One thing wasn't better or worse than the other. It was all temporary. We heard the sirens. We followed the news. We called our friends. We made music."		0:02:41 (Pop-up)
Ryland Bouchard	How Do You Do? "How Do You Do?" by "Ryland Bouchard"	Cowbirds & Cuckoos Pt. 1	Swim Slowly	2009	Again this really makes me miss 2009. Ryland Louis Bouchard (born October 16, 1979) is an American vocalist, musician, and cinematographer. As a musician he has incorporated aspects of folk, electronica, jazz, psychedelia and avant-garde rock. Previously known as the Kill Rock Stars recording artist The Robot Ate Me, he has been labeled by Daytrotter as "One of the most creative and potentially scary minds of our generation" and by Spin Magazine as "purely artistic, baffling, and almost completely uncommercial". Lana Del Rey used Super 8 footage from Bouchard's "Good Life #2" for the original Video Games (song) music video. I enjoy visiting his plane of existence. Very much.		0:05:10 (Pop-up)
Attic Ted	Howdy M'am "Howdy M'am" by "Attic Ted"	Starfish As Man	Atypeek Music	2024	A fresh release from Texas's Attic Ted. I fucking love this nihilistic shuffle. Starfish As Man features 11 songs recorded September 2023 in Astoria, Oregon with Mike Vasquez (Sweatbox Studio) and in Brooklyn, New York with Paul D. Millar (Bug Sound East). It showcases Grady Roper, Coby Cardosa, Chad Allen, and Paul D. Millar. You will hear twangy guitar, Hammond organ bass, Casio rhythm loops, drums, clarinet, a shit ton of synthesizers, and theatrical vocals. It's like Butthole Surfers meet Klaus Nomi with David Byrne and Nina Hagen cheering on the gang !!	*	0:06:41 (Pop-up)
Water Machine	Water Machine Pt. II	Water Machine Single	Upset The Rhythm	2023	Formed in the wake of two years of social isolation, their sound careens between punk, country and alt-rock, underpinned by the unique quality they call “raw liquid power”. Morice’s vocals lead the four piece across genres and an entire spectrum of human emotion - from I Quit’s yelps of righteous indignation to the nostalgic sweetness of Flowers. Gage’s spiky-then-smooth guitar melodies build to danceable pop choruses, and frenetic punk breakdowns are punctuated by Ilgauskaitė’s syncopated cowbells and de Hoog’s offbeat bass. As the pace slows, let violin, synth and three-piece harmonies wash over you. FFO: Pavement, Beat Happening and Courtney Barnett. You get the vibe. Grab a cup and meet us at the water machine.		0:09:24 (Pop-up)
Brenda	Pigs "Pigs" by "Brenda"	Pigs Single	Last Night From Glasgow	2024	Phhhhheeeeeewwwwww. I am musically smitten and beguiled. Angular sassiness, girl gang vocals, post punk PROPER. This is the shit done right. Brenda are from Glasgow. BRENDA is Apsi, Litty, Flore_ Drums, guitar, synth_ Tunes_ Glasgow_ post-punk_ dream-pop_ agit-noise_ party music_BRENDA is every woman you’ve ever seen, met, smelled, heard, enjoyed, feared, laughed at, fancied, ran towards, tasted, thought about, taken money from, written to, texted, ignored, followed, drank with, watched from afar, wished you knew, regretted falling out with.	*	0:12:33 (Pop-up)
Good News	A Line "A Line" by "Good News"	Same As That EP	Bingo Records	2023	We play this band a ton and for good reason! If you are searching for Good News on the internet DO NOT confuse them for the Christian band with the same name that I will say nothing further about. That bassline? Rubbery goodness. Also are those lyrics what I think they are about?		0:14:44 (Pop-up)
Ruby Karinto	Ai is a Pencil "Ai is a Pencil" by "Ruby Karinto"	Ruby Karinto	Hozac Records	2018	The synths are everything in this song. Chef's kisses all around for Victoria BC's Ruby Karinto. "There’s a lot to absorb with a band like Ruby Karinto...t’s a sensory assault from all angles and it’s just the perfectly refreshing blast of No Wave art-pop you’ve been waiting for." 100%		0:16:27 (Pop-up)
Ween	The Stallion Pt. 3 "The Stallion Pt. 3" by "Ween"	Pure Guava	Chocodog Records	1992	So many feels on this one. Pure Guava is the third studio album and major label debut by American rock band Ween, released on November 10, 1992, by Elektra Records. Many of the songs on this album come from at least two tapes that the band made for friends, including ones titled Springstuff and The Caprice Classic Tape, as stated by Dean Ween on JJJ radio in 1993. Many theories abound of what the meaning of this 4 part epic is about. The consensus seems to be...drugs. Shrooms, DMT, Nitrous. All are plausible in the world of Ween in 1992.		0:18:55 (Pop-up)

Wire	Indirect Enquiries v1 - 5th Demo	Not About To Die (Studio Demos 1977-1978)	Pinkflag	1978 / 2022	The early iteration (recorded & mixed April 1978) of what would later become as one of the most heavily produced albums on Wire's third album from 1979 ('154'). This version is from the 2022 official release of an album with demos for their 2nd & 3rd albums. First released in the early 1980s as an unofficial release on Amnesia according to info accompanying the first official release of the LP in 2022. Some of the material saw its first official release in 1995 on the CD Behind The Curtain (Early Versions 1977 & 78). --- Comparing this version to the later studio version reveals how wildly different a finished product can be vs. the original idea. Wire are masters of this; especially in their early days, where they refused to play their current album, their hit material, or at some concerts any material anyone would recognize at all.		0:33:09 (Pop-up)
Wire	Indirect Enquiries "Indirect Enquiries" by "Wire"	154	Harvest / Pink Flag	1979 / 2006	From the liner notes of the deluxe 2006 version of 154: "'Indirect Enquiries' had been demoes during initial work on [2nd album] "Chairs Missing" the previous year. However, at that stage it had had a brisk arrangement with Newman and Gilbert's interlocked guitars propelling it forward. But by the time of the demos for "154" the band had already started to transform the composition. Not only is 'Indirect Enquiries' the album's slowest piece, it is also its darkest and most disturbed moment. The original tune has been abandoned in favour of an uneasy psychedelic dirge. The rhythm is a somnambulant stagger with guitars creating sheets of caustic noise as Thorne's electronics drone with menace. //// "This was another song which Graham said was too chirpy", says Newman. "So I thought: right, I'm going to make it really, really, really, really unchirpy". The last line of the text is the unsettling phrase 'You'd been defaced' which is first heard at 02:02. Then, in a rich mesh of vocals, Newman repeats the phrase over and over for the next minute and a half, the various versions of his warped and layered voice turning the song into a hail of distorting mirrors. Via vari-speed, some of the vocals have been slowed to a deep crawl. Elsewhere in the sound picture, Newman is shouting or chanting the line. //// If 'A Mutual Friend' employs the layering of multiple vocals to create a sense of joyfulness, then the web of vocals on 'Indirect Enquiries' is used to fashion a deep sense of disquiet and anxiety. Here as elsewhere on "154", headphone listening is highly recommended to fully appreciate the complexity of what has been achieved."		0:34:56 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Add N to (X)	The Black Regent "The Black Regent" by "Add N to (X)"	On The Wires Of Our Nerves	Mute	1998	Lead-off track from Add N to (X)'s "On The Wires Of Our Nerves" album, this song would spawn two sequel songs... Revenge Of The Black Regent & The Regent Is Dead. --- "Add N to (X) were an English electronic music band formed in London in 1994. The original members were Andrew Aveling, Barry Smith (aka Barry 7) and Ann Shenton. Steven Claydon replaced Aveling in 1997. //// After several releases on small labels, they signed to the independent label Mute Records in 1998, and achieved modest commercial success before splitting in 2003. //// Second album On the Wires of Our Nerves was released in 1998, and was described as "like Stereolab/Suicide with a rocket shoved up their rectum". The album was played heavily by BBC Radio 1 DJ Mary Anne Hobbs on her show, The Breezeblock."		0:38:33 (Pop-up)
Metronomy x Pan Amsterdam	Nice Town	Nice Town (Single)	Ninja Tune	2024	Released Mar 12 / Writeup from Mxdwn -- "English electronic music group, Metronomy, has released a new single titled “Nice Town.” //// “Nice Town” holds true to an old-school rap beat while the vocals are being recited. This gives the song a very inviting and danceable vibe to it, grabbing listeners from many genres. Once the break comes in after the lyrics “nice town” are said some synth chords pop into the mix creating the electronic feel that Mentromy is known for. This track also features Pan Amsterdam on the trumpet who is also seen in the music video. The trumpet joins in on the second time “nice town” is said which makes the song seem full of life. It really completes the song. //// This song also has two remixes. One from the band themselves and another one from Alain Ogue. Metronomy’s remix changes the song into a bossa nova-style track with soft vocals and acoustic guitar which cannot be heard on the original track. Ogue’s remix takes a different approach and favors an electronic style. A funky bassline and synthetic melody introduce the song along with risers and minimal lyrics other than the repetitive “nice town.” //// All three of these tracks will be available on vinyl on April 19th. “Nice Town” is also the first track from a follow-up release to Metronomy’s ‘Posse EP Volume 1’ that has yet to be announced.

Metronomy x Pan Amsterdam	Nice Town	Nice Town (Single)	Ninja Tune	2024	Released Mar 12 / Writeup from their Bandcamp: "Metronomy — esteemed purveyors of some of the world’s best-loved and eclectic indie-electronic pop music — have announced their new single “Nice Town”, released alongside news of the band’s signing to Ninja Tune. //// A collaboration with New York by way of Houston artist Pan Amsterdam, the release marks the first taste of the follow up to Metronomy’s genre-spanning ‘Posse EP Volume 1’ — an entire release of collaborations which saw them working with up-and-coming artists like Biig Piig, Spill Tab, Sorry, Brian Nasty and Folly Group. //// "My collaborations always start out the same way,” explains Joe Mount, Metronomy’s founder, lead songwriter and only permanent member. “I send out a folder of ideas, beats mainly, and see what comes back. Some artists will play around with a number of the tracks, and some will focus just on one thing that works for them. With Pan Amsterdam, it was the latter, one of those tracks that when he sent it back it was like ‘Oh wow’, it just all fell into place.” “It’s sort of an old school rap track,” he continues, “but in the case of Pan he doesn’t just rap, he’s also an incredible jazz trumpet player, who also works with Iggy Pop” //// “‘Nice Town’ deals with my own battles,” adds Pan Amsterdam. “With the internal versus the external or, intangible versus the tangible. I'm always trying to remember that tangibles may applaud my pursuit in attempting to fulfill my purpose but that my purpose is not tangible. Nor is it for my ego to be gratified. A "Town" can be a "Nice" thing to blame during these reckonings with the inner dimensions of one's self. And it's "Nice" to have a new "Town" interrupting this reckoning, and escape to.“" metronomy.bandcamp.com/	*	0:46:05 (Pop-up)
AIr	Moon Safari "Moon Safari" by "AIr"	Kelly Watch The Stars	Source / Parlophone	1998	"AIR have released the 25th anniversary edition of their seminal debut album Moon Safari in a Deluxe audio-video package available via Warner Music France. You can also stream the special edition everywhere now, with a selection of cherry-picked Moon Safari audio rarities. //// The album re-issue (a Deluxe 2CD/Blu Ray Audio-Video) will include a Spatial Dolby Atmos audio version of the original album along with super rare or previously unreleased tracks as well as Mike Mill’s 1998 documentary film ‘Eating, Sleeping, Waiting & Playing’ filmed during the band’s first ever worldwide tour and more… //// AIR’s boundary-pushing album has long been praised for its innovative sonics that have inspired countless musicians to think outside the box, so much so that their influence even transcended their own medium. Since Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoit Dunckel formed the band in 1995, the prolific duo has released six albums in addition to their acclaimed EP Premiers Symptômes, which was followed by the release of the aforementioned classic Moon Safari along with two soundtracks that all together sold millions of copies. AIR garnered an extensive list of worldwide accolades for their unique brand of downtempo electronic music that not only sculpted the sound for the next generation of electronic-influenced pop music but also was able to withstand the test of time in its own right. //// Celebrating its 25th anniversary last year, the release of Moon Safari catapulted Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoît Dunckel to the uppermost rung of electronic music’s ladder and left an indelible imprint on pop culture at the end of the 20th Century. //// Despite being young 20-somethings at the time and having only released one EP to date, Godin and Dunckel’s stars aligned and together they were blessed with the creative skill to make the perfect electronic pop songs. These two students of astrophysics and architecture set about creating their own universe with the confidence and pedigree of seasoned pros. //// Today, the record’s legacy is canonical, but at the time of release, its multi-million success was far from assured. Says Dunckel: “We were a duo doing some electronic thing, dreaming of selling 10,000 copies and being recognised by other musicians as cool. Then suddenly, we met the world.” In no time at all, AIR’s downtempo influence was easy to detect all around."	*	0:49:08 (Pop-up)
Air	Kelly Watch The Stars (Live On The BBC 1998)	Moon Safari Rarities (25th Anniversary Edition)	Warner Music France	1998 / 2024	This 1998 version was also available as a CDr/promo around the time of the 10th Anniversary Edition of Moon Safari. This version/performance of the song is a radical departure from the version the world at large would come to know from the studio album. I hadn't heard this version until this past week when it became available on various digital music streaming sites... Needless to say, this version surprised me greatly, like a hard (and necessary) slap in the face.	*	0:53:00 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Add N to (X)	Revenge Of The Black Regent	Avant Hard	Mute	1999	The second part of the "Regent" trilogy... (Yes, I'm calling it that now...) //// "Barry Smith, Ann Shenton and Steve Claydon['s] command of bulky vintage synthesisers has reached new levels of proficiency. Unlike previous adventures in analogue, they now control the energy which surges through their machines (and, no doubt, their veins) with masterful aplomb and new-found grace. //// The climax occurs during the Wagnerian majesty of the album’s centrepiece, ‘Revenge Of The Black Regent’, a heady procession of orchestral madness and military rhythm which pits former Orbital and Tricky collaborator Alison Goldfrapp‘s psycho-operatics against the might of genetically modified technology. "		0:56:07 (Pop-up)
Hooper Crescent	Dog Day Afternoon	Essential Tremors	Earth Libraries	2024	Melbourne based Hooper Crescent channel B52s and Devo, exploring an area of post-punk which is often overlooked. "It's a title that has multiple meanings, and hopefully evokes some other things in others too. Benign Essential Tremors is a genetic nervous system condition that runs in my family that causes involuntary and rhythmic shaking. On one level the title is about coming to terms with that condition and realising that there are things that are passed down to us through our family lineage, that we may not welcome, but end up becoming a fundamental part of who we are. We also liked the idea of describing our songs as "tremors", which I think fits into the kinetic energy that runs through some of our songs. It is also a tongue in cheek reference to those "Essential" compilations that much bigger bands would release in the CD era, and the absurdity of referring to your own music as "essential"."	*	1:01:16 (Pop-up)
The Transisters	Ultraviolet On You	Under Control	Self Released	2008	The Transisters were founded in 2005 and spent the last three years in touring all over Italy. Enrico, Meson, Alberto and Matteo opened many live-shows of such greats as Kaiser Chiefs, the Raveonttes, White Rose Movement, X-wife, Disco Drive, Vincent Vincent and the Villains, One Dimensional Man, The Alps and many more. During all that they even found the time to record two EPs in collaboration with Geoff Turner (New Wet Kojak, Girls against Boys), which were released in July 2005 and September 2007. As influences the four are naming bands as the renowned Joy Division, P.I.L., The Fall, Elvis - what results in their Electromagnetic(New)Wave, as the band call it.		1:04:23 (Pop-up)
Furrowed Brow	Punctual Punk "Punctual Punk" by "Furrowed Brow"	Punctual Punk Single	Notes From Underground	2021	What joy this song brought me this week! I am quite obsessed. Bewildering, nonsensincal, hilarious...bombast. I hate to say it but Fall meets B52s with Monochrome Set? Other critics agree: comes on like a mutant B-52s crossed with The Band of Holy Joy. Strident lead vocals, chaotic backing vocals, an organ that sounds as old as the hills. That’s not to mention the weirdly Western start which may perplex you somewhat but that’s all part of what the band do, that’s part of why they are so good"		1:07:34 (Pop-up)
VALS ALARM	Fast Bikes "Fast Bikes" by "VALS ALARM"	Fast Bikes Single	VALS ALARM	2024	Yaaaaasssss. This screams Australia. It's like Australian fucking electroclash. But it's not. They are Dutch....and that was my third guess after Swedish. Their bikes are so fast they made a time machine. They say..."don't panic". This is where it gets even crazier. If you look them up on the internet, you can't find them. But you DO find footage of a flash mob performing Ravel's "Bolero" in a Swedish shopping mall and that is also....really something else. No, I swear it's for real and this is not just the edibles talking. www.valsalarmmade.nl	*	1:09:30 (Pop-up)
Winston Margery	Always Moving "Always Moving" by "Winston Margery"	Dream	Winston Margery	2023	Another winner for this week. I love the Brian Ferry vocals meets the Damned and Buzzcocks. We know nothing about this mysterious artist....and perhaps we never will!		1:11:18 (Pop-up)
Radical Kitten	Mouse Trap "Mouse Trap" by "Radical Kitten"	Uppercat	Cartelle/Modulator	2024	Scratchy and catty, this is MeepMoop approved! “Uppercat” is a classic rrriotpunk track brimming with queer and feminist energy that packs a punch both literally and figuratively. The video, directed by multi-disciplinary artist Bonella Holloway, is boxing themed and plays off the song’s fight-themed lyrics brilliantly. Between the video and the song, Radical Kitten channels the rebellious spirit of riot grrrl acts like Le Tigre and Sleater-Kinney.	*	1:12:59 (Pop-up)
Phil & The Tiles	The Watcher "The Watcher" by "Phil & The Tiles"	Double Happiness	Legless	2024	Melbourne's Phil and the Tiles are a rarity, an organic and genuine reflection of their surroundings. A gang of reprobates. A collection of cynical trippers. Shitheads. They know how to get a room going on a Friday night. For fans of the true shit, Germs, Sardine V, UV Race, Institute, Zounds, Crass and of course The Snakes. Get this record now!	*	1:15:59 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Syd Dale	Convenience Store "Convenience Store" by "Syd Dale"	The Sounds of Syd Dale	KPM Records	2008	Calling your song "Convenience Store" is a ballsy move and this delivers on every front. Syd Dale (20 May 1924 – 15 August 1994) was an English self-taught composer and arranger of big band, easy listening and library music. His music played an important role on television, radio and advertising media of the 1960s and 1970s and is still in use today.		1:18:17 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Syd Dale	Beguine For Trombone "Beguine For Trombone" by "Syd Dale"	KPM 1000 Series: Gentle Sounds Vol. 2	KPM Music Ltd.	1970	His music is still used in productions today. For example, his "Beauty Parade" was used in the SpongeBob SquarePants episode "Spy Buddies", and in The IT Crowd episode "Men Without Women." In the television comedy series Episodes, Matt LeBlanc uses the tune "Two Time" as his iPhone's ringtone. The composition known either as "Man Friday" or "The Penthouse Suite" (from KPM 1049 Chorus and Orchestra, 1969), was used as the theme tune to LWT's Tarrant on TV and was also used extensively in the episode "Speed 3" of Father Ted to introduce libidinous milkman Pat Mustard. Dale's tracks have been widely used by NFL Films over some four decades; his track "Artful Dodger" is given prominent use in such films as the official film recapping Super Bowl V.		1:25:42 (Pop-up)

Wine Lips	Fried II "Fried II" by "Wine Lips"	Stressor	Wine Lips	2019	Sometime (presumably after the debut album), Toronto's Wine Lips decided there must be more fry.., therefore they served up "Fried II". This might have been the first revisitation, but it would not be the last...		1:36:47 (Pop-up)
Wine Lips	Fried III "Fried III" by "Wine Lips"	Mushroom Death Sex Bummer Party	Wine Lips	2021	In for a penny, in for a pound... The act of frying continued on their third album. //// "Toronto based garage punk psych rockers, Wine Lips hit the stage for the first time in the fall of 2015. Initially a part time project between songwriter/guitar player, Cam Hilborn and drummer Aurora Evans, the band began playing clubs in Toronto, stretching organically to surrounding cities, and then into Quebec. By mid 2017 it was clear that the band members were ready to make a full-time commitment. Wine Lips released their self-titled debut LP on indie label Fried Records and set out on their first 5-province tour east to the Maritimes. And they haven’t looked back since. //// A chance meeting resulted in an April 2018 tour of Hong Kong and China, where they were received by enthusiastic audiences. //// Never ones to let the dust settle, the band released their follow up LP “Stressor” in March 2019 and toured North America relentlessly until early 2020. The release of Stressor along with endless tour dates earned the band an ardent following and saw some of the album tracks featured prominently on television and Netflix. //// The band spent most of their free time in 2020 writing and recording their phenomenal third full length record “Mushroom Death Sex Bummer Party” at The Sugar Shack in London, Ontario with Simon Larochette. //// “The record is crazy! We really spent a lot of time getting the songs to sound exactly the way we wanted. I think this is the best stuff we’ve recorded and I’m super stoked with the end result!” says Cam //// Wine Lips is Cam Hilborn on Guitar and Vocals with Aurora Evans on Drums, Jordan Sosensky on Guitar and Charlie Weare on Bass."		1:40:54 (Pop-up)
Wine Lips	Fried IV "Fried IV" by "Wine Lips"	Super Mega Ultra	Wine Lips	2024	March 15 saw the release of Wine Lips' second advanced single, "Fried IV", from the forthcoming (April 5) album "Super Mega Ultra" --- It has a new video, too! Wine Lips - Fried IV (Official Video) +++++++++ "Cam Hilborn (vox, songwriter, guitar) shares, “I’ve written a version of “Fried” on every record we put out so naturally I had to add a “Fried IV” to this album. The record had about 14 songs in the works and I was having a hard time coming up with an idea for “Fried IV,” so it was looking like it might not happen this time around.“ //// I was very transfixed on a riff from a song we decided to cut from the record so I just ended up reworking the whole song into something I was stoked about. It was the last song recorded for the record, I hadn’t even rehearsed it with Aurora (drums) before going to the studio and I pieced the lyrics together right before recording them. We pretty much worked that song out on the spot with our engineer, Simon, and it became one of my favourite tracks on the record. //// Super Mega Ultra is an absolute beast. Recorded by Simon Larochette at The Sugar Shack in Ontario, the album is jam-packed with 12 ramped-up supersonic ear-scorching auditory delicacies. SMU is probably Wine Lips’ most ambitious undertaking to date, exploring new thematic territory while firmly maintaining their signature psych garage punk rock panache." ++++=++++ Is there also a tour?

It was released on 16 October 2000 by Mute Records. The album is essentially two mini-albums fused together, as half was written and performed by Ann Shenton and Steve Claydon, while the other half was written and performed by Barry 7, with occasional help from Dean Honer from The All Seeing I.

Last month, Jane Weaver announced a new album, Love In Constant Spectacle, which the British musician worked on with producer John Parish. “I wanted to write a really over the top love song, it’s kind of tongue in cheek and about romance and brief encounters with a wonky synth,” she shared. “It’s based on a ‘real life’ date after meeting online, how this changes from generation to generation and how romance is perceived now.”	*	1:57:26 (Pop-up)

	🏝 ♥ 8:11pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Roberto @8:09 We're trying to teach him how to shovel... It's been a light winter snow-wise... Apparently our worst day of Winter snow may be here at the beginning of Spring. Figures.
	8:11pm laurapanic: feeling beachy folks!

	8:19pm Tyler: WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeen!
	8:20pm laurapanic: I love the Stallion Suite!!! Arrggh! Don't caress the weasel
	♥ 8:20pm Roberto: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:18 Or just rip a big'n!
	🏝 ♥ 8:20pm ultradamno: Also, a severed head of an intern on a pike outside your cubicle really sends a message
	8:21pm laurapanic: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:18 this seems like an excellent strategy. "Scott the wellbeing officer says fuck off"
	♥ 8:21pm DJ Babs: Oh I've got things to say about Ween. A lot of things. Where Derek is like the Fall expert. I was obsessed with Ween for the first 5 records.
	8:21pm laurapanic: ↳ DJ Babs @8:21 there is a lot of corossover in fandom I reckon. A couple of months ago I just listened to all the parts of the STallion Suite in order every day.
	🏝 ♥ 8:22pm Scott_Oz: ↳ laurapanic @8:21 You can add a "please" if you deem it appropriate mate!?

	🏝 ♥ 8:37pm Tom P: Great stuff guys!
	🏝 ♥ 8:37pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Tyler @8:33 I love how these Indirect Enquiries are somehow the same song... Wire are something special.
	♥ 8:38pm DJ Babs: ↳ DJ Blush @8:25 Wow those are seriously the same song?
	🏝 ♥ 8:38pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Roberto @8:32 Meep Moop is good radio when he actually says something into the mic... Otherwise it's a lot of waiting.
	♥ 8:38pm DJ Babs: Good goddess this is harrowing..pleasantly so mind you!
	♥ 8:38pm DJ Babs: ↳ Tom P @8:37 Thank you Tom!
	♥ 8:39pm DJ Babs: It's very quiet here....

	♥ 8:39pm Roberto: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:34 What's your secret?
	8:39pm Tyler: ↳ Derek Westerholm @8:37 Never content to stay on auto-pilot. Two of my favourite Wire songs never appeared on any of their albums: Culture Vultures (only on a Peel Session) & Underwater Experiences (only demoed until recently re-recorded).

	♥ 8:46pm DJ Babs: It's true when I go away I prefer to come back with wine or cheese.
	♥ 8:46pm Kristine: @laura great question. i lost the good one in montreal.
	♥ 8:46pm DJ Babs: boooo! :-(
	♥ 8:46pm Kristine: i went to montreal via ottawa so i DID come back with good cheese!

	♥ 8:47pm DJ Babs: It's very peppy this version!
	♥ 8:48pm DJ Babs: This is most relaxing I will say.
	8:48pm John07928: ↳ DJ Babs @8:48 interesting tune
	8:48pm Tyler: The food in Quebec on all levels is amazing. When Metro Supermarkets first came to Ontario I was excited thinking we would get some of the amazing food they carry in Quebec. No such luck :(
	♥ 8:48pm DJ Babs: Can one be both peppy and relaxed? To me that's the holy grail of edibles...one that does that.
	🏝 ♥ 8:48pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Tyler @8:39 Ohh... So many radically different versions of Underwater Experiences...
	♥ 8:49pm DJ Babs: I prefer not to leave Quebec without havng had some sugar pie. That shit is amaaaazing.
	🏝 ♥ 8:49pm gsdoubleu: ↳ Tyler @8:48 same with Simon's. not as good as in Quebec
	♥ 8:49pm DJ Babs: OOOOHHH AIR!!!!!
	🏝 ♥ 8:49pm ultradamno: Riverdale, man mastodon.social...

	🏝 ♥ 8:50pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ John07928 @8:44 Awww... Hello John! Glad to see you here!
	8:51pm DJ Blush: Aiiiiiiiiiir
	8:51pm Tyler: ↳ DJ Babs @8:49 The desserts there are works of art. I didn't want to stick my fork into it & ruin the presentation :)
	♥ 8:51pm DJ Babs: ↳ Tyler @8:50 Yeah that tracks. Everytime I go to Quebec I spend waaay too much at the markets.
	♥ 8:52pm Kristine: i went to jean talon market and got the same cheese as i had in my chevre chaud salad. And yes! their food is art! teenagers gush about food there like ours do about music!
	8:52pm Tyler: Sorry, Air - your concert tickets were to rarefied for me to get...
	♥ 8:53pm Kristine: i want to live in mtl. ahhhhhh!
	8:54pm Tyler: ↳ Kristine @8:53 I'd live there if my spoken French was good enough to get a job.
	8:54pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Kelly Watch The Stars (Live On The BBC 1998)" by ... Babs, been watching the struggle for tickets you have endured. Got 'em though!
	🏝 ♥ 8:54pm ultradamno: Don't let them boss you around Kelly, look where you want.
	♥ 8:54pm DJ Babs: THIS IS AMAZING
	🏝 ♥ 8:55pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Kristine @8:53 Hello Kristine! Hmm... If you actually lived in Montreal would you have any ankles left at all?
	🏝 ♥ 8:55pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ ultradamno @8:54 lol
	8:55pm John07928: ↳ Tyler @8:54 can’t speak french, would be shit out of luck
	♥ 8:55pm DJ Babs: ↳ Tyler @8:52 I know that was a tough pill to swallow. They should have added a second show....
	🏝 ♥ 8:56pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Song: "Kelly Watch The Stars (Live On The BBC 1998)" by ... Quite the rockin version!
	8:56pm John07928: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:56 hello scott_oz
	♥ 8:56pm DJ Babs: I love visiting there...but I still love Toronto...even though my goodness they are trying really hard to make it unliveable. You've heard about Doug Ford tossing the multi plex builds? UGH
	8:57pm Tyler: ↳ DJ Babs @8:55 Yeah, definitely. I wouldn't want it to be in any bigger venue, but an added show would have been nice.
	♥ 8:57pm Kristine: ↳ Derek Westerholm @8:55 absolutely not! have you seen the stairs on their triplexes? i already sprained one missing a stair at my sister's in ottawa.
	🏝 ♥ 8:57pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Roberto @8:39 Dunno, good gut flora maybe? Never been able to gross out people with my essence.
	🏝 ♥ 8:57pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi DJ Babs, Derek, and all!!!
	8:58pm Tyler: ↳ Kristine @8:57 Kristine Watch The Stairs :)
	♥ 8:59pm DJ Babs: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:57 ok we need to expand on gut flora here in this chat.
	♥ 9:00pm Kristine: ↳ Tyler @8:58 now people tell me! It also goes along with look where you are going and dont go out in dark spaces without lighting.
	🏝 ♥ 9:00pm ultradamno: I remember when people thought Bananamen were The Cramps (they were the Stingrays) www.discogs.com... There were rumors surrounding Pork Dukes ranging from Steeleye Span to Throbbing Gristle
	9:01pm Tyler: ↳ Kristine @9:00 Watch the stairs or you'll see stars! :)
	🏝 ♥ 9:01pm ultradamno: ...I feel like a consciousness raising effort around that Bananamen single is in order, as psychobilly goes, it's a motherfucker
	🏝 ♥ 9:02pm Derek Westerholm: And there were also all the theories as to who the Residents might be...
	🏝 ♥ 9:03pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Kristine @8:57 Yes! Many crazy stairs in Montreal, not easy in the best of weather, but killer in the winter...
	9:03pm Tyler: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:02 I think there was an urban myth rumour that The Residents were Kideo.
	9:04pm DJ Blush: KIDEO
	9:04pm DJ Blush: I was a big fan.
	🏝 ♥ 9:04pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @8:57 Hello WilltheeSG!!!
	🏝 ♥ 9:04pm ultradamno: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:02 Pen Jillette said he was at a show once where people near him were speculating on the subject and he said all four of their names out loud, which were, of course, of no meaning to them.
	9:04pm Tyler: ↳ DJ Blush @9:04 Kids CAN rock! :)
	🏝 ♥ 9:04pm Tom P: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @8:57 Hey Will!!
	🏝 ♥ 9:05pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ ultradamno @9:04 Haha.
	♥ 9:06pm DJ Babs: Heyooo @Will! :-)
	🏝 ♥ 9:06pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Kristine @8:57 Also, sorry to hear about the ankle, too, Kristine... Heal up!
	♥ 9:07pm Kristine: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:06 thank you Derek!
	♥ 9:07pm DJ Babs: Healing synth waves have magical powers...on ankles AND gut flora!
	🏝 ♥ 9:08pm ultradamno: Speaking of which, I picked up a Fred Frith and late Resident Hardy Fox album last BC Friday, very good klanggalerie.bandcamp.com... New album out from ex-Tuxedomoon Blaine Reininger klanggalerie.bandcamp.com...
	9:08pm Tyler: ↳ ultradamno @9:08 <3 me some Fred Frith!
	♥ 9:08pm DJ Babs: I looove this band! It's like Fall meets B52s
	9:09pm Tyler: ↳ ultradamno @9:08 I was at a record store on the weekend that had the Snakefinger album, but I first need to get my turntable fixed.
	♥ 9:10pm DJ Babs: Scott! Laura! Do you know this band? I can't find anything about them!
	🏝 ♥ 9:10pm ultradamno: Klanggalerie has quite a bit of Snakey stuff on their page too
	9:10pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Fast Bikes" by "VALS ALARM" never heard of them! as usual you find the gems.
	9:11pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Fast Bikes" by "VALS ALARM" looks like they are actually Dutch
	♥ 9:12pm DJ Babs: I' am also wondering if they are Dutch or Swedes and LAURA you got it!!!
	♥ 9:12pm Kristine: ↳ DJ Babs @8:45 its not mild but not catastrophic. The chiro said 'good job young lady' when he saw it.
	🏝 ♥ 9:14pm Will thee Sound Guy: Diggin it
	🏝 ♥ 9:16pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @9:14 Agreed, Babs has surprises for us all, including me... This is great!

	🏝 ♥ 9:17pm gsdoubleu: do i hear some Wire in this too?
	🏝 ♥ 9:18pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Always Moving" by "Winston Margery" Only on Spotify?
	🏝 ♥ 9:18pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ gsdoubleu @9:17 Right?! I was just saying that to Babs! Vocal line... Refs a Wire song melody-wise...
	🏝 ♥ 9:19pm northguineahills: lo siento, been watching 'murican footie...

	🏝 ♥ 9:21pm northguineahills: US scored a last second goal to send it extra time. then they scored again. (concacaf nations semis vs jamaica), game still on.
	🏝 ♥ 9:21pm Scott_Oz: ↳ DJ Babs @8:59 We all need to expand out gut flora mate!🦠🍄
	🏝 ♥ 9:22pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @9:21 I guess it was a superbowl ad www.udiscovermusic.com...
	🏝 ♥ 9:22pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ northguineahills @9:21 Ooh... a nailbiter!
	🏝 ♥ 9:22pm northguineahills: (canada got knocked off by jamaica in december)
	🏝 ♥ 9:24pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ ultradamno @9:21 Yes, that commercial is making the rounds here, too... Reminds me I'm a sale-able demographic now... Sigh.
	🏝 ♥ 9:24pm northguineahills: US scores again in 2nd ET!

	9:26pm Tyler: ↳ ultradamno @9:21 I've been complaining about this for a few months now: Expedia - Velvet Underground Scotiabank - Bronski Beat Hotels.com - Stereolab Totally tone-deaf use of these songs!
	9:27pm Tyler: It takes a lot of practice to master the tromboner :)

	♥ 9:33pm DJ Babs: ↳ northguineahills @9:21 You should come up and visit during the World Cup...although I guarantee that it's going to be a fucking shitshow LOL
	♥ 9:34pm DJ Babs: ↳ ultradamno @9:33 I was recently told a story about the MOST ridiculously inappropriate commercial music deal ever and I'm still bewildered as to who thought this was a good idea LOL
	9:35pm Bob Barth: Derek & Babs!! We're back!! Full bodied & ready for trouble! Ya'll are rockin' my socks tonight!

	🏝 ♥ 9:38pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Bob Barth @9:35 Hello Bob, yes, yay! What have you in store for us next in Sheena's on "One Night Stand"?

	🏝 ♥ 9:40pm ultradamno: ↳ DJ Babs @9:38 At the time it was probably a good dog whistle way to seem hip to anyone who recognized him and anyone who would be offended would just think it was an old man. Now, it would probably be a Bud Light situation
	🏝 ♥ 9:41pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ northguineahills @9:39 Nothing wrong with a good, honest, well-intended sports taunting now and then.
	🏝 ♥ 9:41pm northguineahills: ↳ Bob Barth @9:39 Bob. i'd love to be there for the whole thing. i've been ill, and still going to work (new job). So, i'm going to sleep shortly after echo beach. love ya!

	🏝 ♥ 9:50pm northguineahills: ↳ ultradamno @9:45 last april, my trumper brothers, kept mocking bud lite and (trans), it was b/c their friends were around. when i met them in august., i was able to change their position (as their friends weren't around). they like to be seen as alphas. but bend when I use logic (nice people otherwise, and i love my niecs)

Lulu Lewis	Ready? "Ready?" by "Lulu Lewis"	Dyscopia	Illegalia Records	2022	Oh this has EVERYTHING I like. When that twangy guitar comes in? Pfft. Lulu Lewis is Dylan Hundley & Pablo Martin (Tom Tom Club, The Du-Rites). "Think Siouxsie, but also Dinah Cancer, a distinction made to underscore an affinity with punk’s pre- hardcore days, when the form was far less rigidly defined" (The Vinyl District) Their sophomore LP, Dyscopia, ranked Number #1 Album of 2022 by Evan "Funk" Davies of WFMU. "The pandemic and the war are the true starters of the 21st Century. This album was written during these times. This is a conceptual album, although no clear story or characters are presented. You, the listener, are the main character. Dyscopia is the environment you have to walk across. Dyscopia is music; music is an experience. There is disco music in Dyscopia. Dyscopia is not a disco album We are not good at writing happy lyrics. A song in Dyscopia can be bright or dark, depending on what you are paying attention to. You can have the same experience while listening to ABBA. There is no contradiction. Pablo almost died of COVID-19 while making this album; Dylan, lost her sense of smell. One thing wasn't better or worse than the other. It was all temporary. We heard the sirens. We followed the news. We called our friends. We made music."		0:02:41 (Pop-up)
Ryland Bouchard	How Do You Do? "How Do You Do?" by "Ryland Bouchard"	Cowbirds & Cuckoos Pt. 1	Swim Slowly	2009	Again this really makes me miss 2009. Ryland Louis Bouchard (born October 16, 1979) is an American vocalist, musician, and cinematographer. As a musician he has incorporated aspects of folk, electronica, jazz, psychedelia and avant-garde rock. Previously known as the Kill Rock Stars recording artist The Robot Ate Me, he has been labeled by Daytrotter as "One of the most creative and potentially scary minds of our generation" and by Spin Magazine as "purely artistic, baffling, and almost completely uncommercial". Lana Del Rey used Super 8 footage from Bouchard's "Good Life #2" for the original Video Games (song) music video. I enjoy visiting his plane of existence. Very much.		0:05:10 (Pop-up)
Attic Ted	Howdy M'am "Howdy M'am" by "Attic Ted"	Starfish As Man	Atypeek Music	2024	A fresh release from Texas's Attic Ted. I fucking love this nihilistic shuffle. Starfish As Man features 11 songs recorded September 2023 in Astoria, Oregon with Mike Vasquez (Sweatbox Studio) and in Brooklyn, New York with Paul D. Millar (Bug Sound East). It showcases Grady Roper, Coby Cardosa, Chad Allen, and Paul D. Millar. You will hear twangy guitar, Hammond organ bass, Casio rhythm loops, drums, clarinet, a shit ton of synthesizers, and theatrical vocals. It's like Butthole Surfers meet Klaus Nomi with David Byrne and Nina Hagen cheering on the gang !!	*	0:06:41 (Pop-up)
Water Machine	Water Machine Pt. II	Water Machine Single	Upset The Rhythm	2023	Formed in the wake of two years of social isolation, their sound careens between punk, country and alt-rock, underpinned by the unique quality they call “raw liquid power”. Morice’s vocals lead the four piece across genres and an entire spectrum of human emotion - from I Quit’s yelps of righteous indignation to the nostalgic sweetness of Flowers. Gage’s spiky-then-smooth guitar melodies build to danceable pop choruses, and frenetic punk breakdowns are punctuated by Ilgauskaitė’s syncopated cowbells and de Hoog’s offbeat bass. As the pace slows, let violin, synth and three-piece harmonies wash over you. FFO: Pavement, Beat Happening and Courtney Barnett. You get the vibe. Grab a cup and meet us at the water machine.		0:09:24 (Pop-up)
Brenda	Pigs "Pigs" by "Brenda"	Pigs Single	Last Night From Glasgow	2024	Phhhhheeeeeewwwwww. I am musically smitten and beguiled. Angular sassiness, girl gang vocals, post punk PROPER.

BRENDA is Apsi, Litty, Flore_ Drums, guitar, synth_ Tunes_ Glasgow_ post-punk_ dream-pop_ agit-noise_ party music_BRENDA is every woman you’ve ever seen, met, smelled, heard, enjoyed, feared, laughed at, fancied, ran towards, tasted, thought about, taken money from, written to, texted, ignored, followed, drank with, watched from afar, wished you knew, regretted falling out with.	*	0:12:33 (Pop-up)

If you are searching for Good News on the internet DO NOT confuse them for the Christian band with the same name that I will say nothing further about. That bassline? Rubbery goodness. Also are those lyrics what I think they are about?		0:14:44 (Pop-up)
Ruby Karinto	Ai is a Pencil "Ai is a Pencil" by "Ruby Karinto"	Ruby Karinto	Hozac Records	2018	The synths are everything in this song. Chef's kisses all around for Victoria BC's Ruby Karinto. "There’s a lot to absorb with a band like Ruby Karinto...t’s a sensory assault from all angles and it’s just the perfectly refreshing blast of No Wave art-pop you’ve been waiting for." 100%		0:16:27 (Pop-up)
Ween	The Stallion Pt. 3 "The Stallion Pt. 3" by "Ween"	Pure Guava	Chocodog Records	1992	So many feels on this one. Pure Guava is the third studio album and major label debut by American rock band Ween, released on November 10, 1992, by Elektra Records. Many of the songs on this album come from at least two tapes that the band made for friends, including ones titled Springstuff and The Caprice Classic Tape, as stated by Dean Ween on JJJ radio in 1993. Many theories abound of what the meaning of this 4 part epic is about. The consensus seems to be...drugs. Shrooms, DMT, Nitrous. All are plausible in the world of Ween in 1992.		0:18:55 (Pop-up)

Wire	Indirect Enquiries v1 - 5th Demo	Not About To Die (Studio Demos 1977-1978)	Pinkflag	1978 / 2022	The early iteration (recorded & mixed April 1978) of what would later become as one of the most heavily produced albums on Wire's third album from 1979 ('154'). This version is from the 2022 official release of an album with demos for their 2nd & 3rd albums. First released in the early 1980s as an unofficial release on Amnesia according to info accompanying the first official release of the LP in 2022. Some of the material saw its first official release in 1995 on the CD Behind The Curtain (Early Versions 1977 & 78). --- Comparing this version to the later studio version reveals how wildly different a finished product can be vs. the original idea. Wire are masters of this; especially in their early days, where they refused to play their current album, their hit material, or at some concerts any material anyone would recognize at all.		0:33:09 (Pop-up)
Wire	Indirect Enquiries "Indirect Enquiries" by "Wire"	154	Harvest / Pink Flag	1979 / 2006	From the liner notes of the deluxe 2006 version of 154: "'Indirect Enquiries' had been demoes during initial work on [2nd album] "Chairs Missing" the previous year. However, at that stage it had had a brisk arrangement with Newman and Gilbert's interlocked guitars propelling it forward. But by the time of the demos for "154" the band had already started to transform the composition. Not only is 'Indirect Enquiries' the album's slowest piece, it is also its darkest and most disturbed moment. The original tune has been abandoned in favour of an uneasy psychedelic dirge. The rhythm is a somnambulant stagger with guitars creating sheets of caustic noise as Thorne's electronics drone with menace. //// "This was another song which Graham said was too chirpy", says Newman. "So I thought: right, I'm going to make it really, really, really, really unchirpy". The last line of the text is the unsettling phrase 'You'd been defaced' which is first heard at 02:02. Then, in a rich mesh of vocals, Newman repeats the phrase over and over for the next minute and a half, the various versions of his warped and layered voice turning the song into a hail of distorting mirrors. Via vari-speed, some of the vocals have been slowed to a deep crawl. Elsewhere in the sound picture, Newman is shouting or chanting the line. //// If 'A Mutual Friend' employs the layering of multiple vocals to create a sense of joyfulness, then the web of vocals on 'Indirect Enquiries' is used to fashion a deep sense of disquiet and anxiety. Here as elsewhere on "154", headphone listening is highly recommended to fully appreciate the complexity of what has been achieved."		0:34:56 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Add N to (X)	The Black Regent "The Black Regent" by "Add N to (X)"	On The Wires Of Our Nerves	Mute	1998	Lead-off track from Add N to (X)'s "On The Wires Of Our Nerves" album, this song would spawn two sequel songs... Revenge Of The Black Regent & The Regent Is Dead. --- "Add N to (X) were an English electronic music band formed in London in 1994. The original members were Andrew Aveling, Barry Smith (aka Barry 7) and Ann Shenton. Steven Claydon replaced Aveling in 1997. //// After several releases on small labels, they signed to the independent label Mute Records in 1998, and achieved modest commercial success before splitting in 2003. //// Second album On the Wires of Our Nerves was released in 1998, and was described as "like Stereolab/Suicide with a rocket shoved up their rectum". The album was played heavily by BBC Radio 1 DJ Mary Anne Hobbs on her show, The Breezeblock."		0:38:33 (Pop-up)
Metronomy x Pan Amsterdam	Nice Town	Nice Town (Single)	Ninja Tune	2024	Released Mar 12 / Writeup from Mxdwn -- "English electronic music group, Metronomy, has released a new single titled “Nice Town.” //// “Nice Town” holds true to an old-school rap beat while the vocals are being recited. This gives the song a very inviting and danceable vibe to it, grabbing listeners from many genres. Once the break comes in after the lyrics “nice town” are said some synth chords pop into the mix creating the electronic feel that Mentromy is known for. This track also features Pan Amsterdam on the trumpet who is also seen in the music video. The trumpet joins in on the second time “nice town” is said which makes the song seem full of life. It really completes the song. //// This song also has two remixes. One from the band themselves and another one from Alain Ogue. Metronomy’s remix changes the song into a bossa nova-style track with soft vocals and acoustic guitar which cannot be heard on the original track. Ogue’s remix takes a different approach and favors an electronic style. A funky bassline and synthetic melody introduce the song along with risers and minimal lyrics other than the repetitive “nice town.” //// All three of these tracks will be available on vinyl on April 19th. “Nice Town” is also the first track from a follow-up release to Metronomy’s ‘Posse EP Volume 1’ that has yet to be announced.

Metronomy x Pan Amsterdam	Nice Town	Nice Town (Single)	Ninja Tune	2024	Released Mar 12 / Writeup from their Bandcamp: "Metronomy — esteemed purveyors of some of the world’s best-loved and eclectic indie-electronic pop music — have announced their new single “Nice Town”, released alongside news of the band’s signing to Ninja Tune. //// A collaboration with New York by way of Houston artist Pan Amsterdam, the release marks the first taste of the follow up to Metronomy’s genre-spanning ‘Posse EP Volume 1’ — an entire release of collaborations which saw them working with up-and-coming artists like Biig Piig, Spill Tab, Sorry, Brian Nasty and Folly Group. //// "My collaborations always start out the same way,” explains Joe Mount, Metronomy’s founder, lead songwriter and only permanent member. “I send out a folder of ideas, beats mainly, and see what comes back. Some artists will play around with a number of the tracks, and some will focus just on one thing that works for them. With Pan Amsterdam, it was the latter, one of those tracks that when he sent it back it was like ‘Oh wow’, it just all fell into place.” “It’s sort of an old school rap track,” he continues, “but in the case of Pan he doesn’t just rap, he’s also an incredible jazz trumpet player, who also works with Iggy Pop” //// “‘Nice Town’ deals with my own battles,” adds Pan Amsterdam. “With the internal versus the external or, intangible versus the tangible. I'm always trying to remember that tangibles may applaud my pursuit in attempting to fulfill my purpose but that my purpose is not tangible. Nor is it for my ego to be gratified. A "Town" can be a "Nice" thing to blame during these reckonings with the inner dimensions of one's self. And it's "Nice" to have a new "Town" interrupting this reckoning, and escape to.“" metronomy.bandcamp.com/	*	0:46:05 (Pop-up)
AIr	Moon Safari "Moon Safari" by "AIr"	Kelly Watch The Stars	Source / Parlophone	1998	"AIR have released the 25th anniversary edition of their seminal debut album Moon Safari in a Deluxe audio-video package available via Warner Music France. You can also stream the special edition everywhere now, with a selection of cherry-picked Moon Safari audio rarities. //// The album re-issue (a Deluxe 2CD/Blu Ray Audio-Video) will include a Spatial Dolby Atmos audio version of the original album along with super rare or previously unreleased tracks as well as Mike Mill’s 1998 documentary film ‘Eating, Sleeping, Waiting & Playing’ filmed during the band’s first ever worldwide tour and more… //// AIR’s boundary-pushing album has long been praised for its innovative sonics that have inspired countless musicians to think outside the box, so much so that their influence even transcended their own medium. Since Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoit Dunckel formed the band in 1995, the prolific duo has released six albums in addition to their acclaimed EP Premiers Symptômes, which was followed by the release of the aforementioned classic Moon Safari along with two soundtracks that all together sold millions of copies. AIR garnered an extensive list of worldwide accolades for their unique brand of downtempo electronic music that not only sculpted the sound for the next generation of electronic-influenced pop music but also was able to withstand the test of time in its own right. //// Celebrating its 25th anniversary last year, the release of Moon Safari catapulted Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoît Dunckel to the uppermost rung of electronic music’s ladder and left an indelible imprint on pop culture at the end of the 20th Century. //// Despite being young 20-somethings at the time and having only released one EP to date, Godin and Dunckel’s stars aligned and together they were blessed with the creative skill to make the perfect electronic pop songs. These two students of astrophysics and architecture set about creating their own universe with the confidence and pedigree of seasoned pros. //// Today, the record’s legacy is canonical, but at the time of release, its multi-million success was far from assured. Says Dunckel: “We were a duo doing some electronic thing, dreaming of selling 10,000 copies and being recognised by other musicians as cool. Then suddenly, we met the world.” In no time at all, AIR’s downtempo influence was easy to detect all around."	*	0:49:08 (Pop-up)
Air	Kelly Watch The Stars (Live On The BBC 1998)	Moon Safari Rarities (25th Anniversary Edition)	Warner Music France	1998 / 2024	This 1998 version was also available as a CDr/promo around the time of the 10th Anniversary Edition of Moon Safari. This version/performance of the song is a radical departure from the version the world at large would come to know from the studio album. I hadn't heard this version until this past week when it became available on various digital music streaming sites... Needless to say, this version surprised me greatly, like a hard (and necessary) slap in the face.	*	0:53:00 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Add N to (X)	Revenge Of The Black Regent	Avant Hard	Mute	1999	The second part of the "Regent" trilogy... (Yes, I'm calling it that now...) //// "Barry Smith, Ann Shenton and Steve Claydon['s] command of bulky vintage synthesisers has reached new levels of proficiency. Unlike previous adventures in analogue, they now control the energy which surges through their machines (and, no doubt, their veins) with masterful aplomb and new-found grace. //// The climax occurs during the Wagnerian majesty of the album’s centrepiece, ‘Revenge Of The Black Regent’, a heady procession of orchestral madness and military rhythm which pits former Orbital and Tricky collaborator Alison Goldfrapp‘s psycho-operatics against the might of genetically modified technology.

Hooper Crescent	Dog Day Afternoon	Essential Tremors	Earth Libraries	2024	Melbourne based Hooper Crescent channel B52s and Devo, exploring an area of post-punk which is often overlooked. "It's a title that has multiple meanings, and hopefully evokes some other things in others too. Benign Essential Tremors is a genetic nervous system condition that runs in my family that causes involuntary and rhythmic shaking. On one level the title is about coming to terms with that condition and realising that there are things that are passed down to us through our family lineage, that we may not welcome, but end up becoming a fundamental part of who we are. We also liked the idea of describing our songs as "tremors", which I think fits into the kinetic energy that runs through some of our songs. It is also a tongue in cheek reference to those "Essential" compilations that much bigger bands would release in the CD era, and the absurdity of referring to your own music as "essential"."	*	1:01:16 (Pop-up)
The Transisters	Ultraviolet On You	Under Control	Self Released	2008	The Transisters were founded in 2005 and spent the last three years in touring all over Italy. Enrico, Meson, Alberto and Matteo opened many live-shows of such greats as Kaiser Chiefs, the Raveonttes, White Rose Movement, X-wife, Disco Drive, Vincent Vincent and the Villains, One Dimensional Man, The Alps and many more. During all that they even found the time to record two EPs in collaboration with Geoff Turner (New Wet Kojak, Girls against Boys), which were released in July 2005 and September 2007. As influences the four are naming bands as the renowned Joy Division, P.I.L., The Fall, Elvis - what results in their Electromagnetic(New)Wave, as the band call it.		1:04:23 (Pop-up)
Furrowed Brow	Punctual Punk "Punctual Punk" by "Furrowed Brow"	Punctual Punk Single	Notes From Underground	2021	What joy this song brought me this week! I am quite obsessed. Bewildering, nonsensincal, hilarious...bombast. I hate to say it but Fall meets B52s with Monochrome Set? Other critics agree: comes on like a mutant B-52s crossed with The Band of Holy Joy. Strident lead vocals, chaotic backing vocals, an organ that sounds as old as the hills. That’s not to mention the weirdly Western start which may perplex you somewhat but that’s all part of what the band do, that’s part of why they are so good"		1:07:34 (Pop-up)
VALS ALARM	Fast Bikes "Fast Bikes" by "VALS ALARM"	Fast Bikes Single	VALS ALARM	2024	Yaaaaasssss. This screams Australia. It's like Australian fucking electroclash. But it's not. They are Dutch....and that was my third guess after Swedish. Their bikes are so fast they made a time machine. They say..."don't panic". This is where it gets even crazier. If you look them up on the internet, you can't find them. But you DO find footage of a flash mob performing Ravel's "Bolero" in a Swedish shopping mall and that is also....really something else.

Radical Kitten	Mouse Trap "Mouse Trap" by "Radical Kitten"	Uppercat	Cartelle/Modulator	2024	Scratchy and catty, this is MeepMoop approved! “Uppercat” is a classic rrriotpunk track brimming with queer and feminist energy that packs a punch both literally and figuratively. The video, directed by multi-disciplinary artist Bonella Holloway, is boxing themed and plays off the song’s fight-themed lyrics brilliantly. Between the video and the song, Radical Kitten channels the rebellious spirit of riot grrrl acts like Le Tigre and Sleater-Kinney.	*	1:12:59 (Pop-up)
Phil & The Tiles	The Watcher "The Watcher" by "Phil & The Tiles"	Double Happiness	Legless	2024	Melbourne's Phil and the Tiles are a rarity, an organic and genuine reflection of their surroundings.

Music behind DJ: Syd Dale	Convenience Store "Convenience Store" by "Syd Dale"	The Sounds of Syd Dale	KPM Records	2008	Calling your song "Convenience Store" is a ballsy move and this delivers on every front. Syd Dale (20 May 1924 – 15 August 1994) was an English self-taught composer and arranger of big band, easy listening and library music. His music played an important role on television, radio and advertising media of the 1960s and 1970s and is still in use today.		1:18:17 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Syd Dale	Beguine For Trombone "Beguine For Trombone" by "Syd Dale"	KPM 1000 Series: Gentle Sounds Vol. 2	KPM Music Ltd.	1970	His music is still used in productions today. For example, his "Beauty Parade" was used in the SpongeBob SquarePants episode "Spy Buddies", and in The IT Crowd episode "Men Without Women." In the television comedy series Episodes, Matt LeBlanc uses the tune "Two Time" as his iPhone's ringtone. The composition known either as "Man Friday" or "The Penthouse Suite" (from KPM 1049 Chorus and Orchestra, 1969), was used as the theme tune to LWT's Tarrant on TV and was also used extensively in the episode "Speed 3" of Father Ted to introduce libidinous milkman Pat Mustard. Dale's tracks have been widely used by NFL Films over some four decades; his track "Artful Dodger" is given prominent use in such films as the official film recapping Super Bowl V.		1:25:42 (Pop-up)

Wine Lips	Fried II "Fried II" by "Wine Lips"	Stressor	Wine Lips	2019	Sometime (presumably after the debut album), Toronto's Wine Lips decided there must be more fry.., therefore they served up "Fried II". This might have been the first revisitation, but it would not be the last...		1:36:47 (Pop-up)
Wine Lips	Fried III "Fried III" by "Wine Lips"	Mushroom Death Sex Bummer Party	Wine Lips	2021	In for a penny, in for a pound... The act of frying continued on their third album. //// "Toronto based garage punk psych rockers, Wine Lips hit the stage for the first time in the fall of 2015. Initially a part time project between songwriter/guitar player, Cam Hilborn and drummer Aurora Evans, the band began playing clubs in Toronto, stretching organically to surrounding cities, and then into Quebec. By mid 2017 it was clear that the band members were ready to make a full-time commitment. Wine Lips released their self-titled debut LP on indie label Fried Records and set out on their first 5-province tour east to the Maritimes. And they haven’t looked back since. //// A chance meeting resulted in an April 2018 tour of Hong Kong and China, where they were received by enthusiastic audiences. //// Never ones to let the dust settle, the band released their follow up LP “Stressor” in March 2019 and toured North America relentlessly until early 2020. The release of Stressor along with endless tour dates earned the band an ardent following and saw some of the album tracks featured prominently on television and Netflix. //// The band spent most of their free time in 2020 writing and recording their phenomenal third full length record “Mushroom Death Sex Bummer Party” at The Sugar Shack in London, Ontario with Simon Larochette. //// “The record is crazy! We really spent a lot of time getting the songs to sound exactly the way we wanted. I think this is the best stuff we’ve recorded and I’m super stoked with the end result!” says Cam //// Wine Lips is Cam Hilborn on Guitar and Vocals with Aurora Evans on Drums, Jordan Sosensky on Guitar and Charlie Weare on Bass."		1:40:54 (Pop-up)
Wine Lips	Fried IV "Fried IV" by "Wine Lips"	Super Mega Ultra	Wine Lips	2024	March 15 saw the release of Wine Lips' second advanced single, "Fried IV", from the forthcoming (April 5) album "Super Mega Ultra" --- It has a new video, too! Wine Lips - Fried IV (Official Video) +++++++++ "Cam Hilborn (vox, songwriter, guitar) shares, “I’ve written a version of “Fried” on every record we put out so naturally I had to add a “Fried IV” to this album. The record had about 14 songs in the works and I was having a hard time coming up with an idea for “Fried IV,” so it was looking like it might not happen this time around.“ //// I was very transfixed on a riff from a song we decided to cut from the record so I just ended up reworking the whole song into something I was stoked about. It was the last song recorded for the record, I hadn’t even rehearsed it with Aurora (drums) before going to the studio and I pieced the lyrics together right before recording them. We pretty much worked that song out on the spot with our engineer, Simon, and it became one of my favourite tracks on the record. //// Super Mega Ultra is an absolute beast. Recorded by Simon Larochette at The Sugar Shack in Ontario, the album is jam-packed with 12 ramped-up supersonic ear-scorching auditory delicacies.

Music behind DJ: Add N to (X)	The Regent Is Dead "The Regent Is Dead" by "Add N to (X)"	Add Insult To Injury	Mute	2000	Third and last installment of what I am now calling the "Regent" trilogy... //// "Add Insult to Injury is the fourth studio album by British electronic musicians Add N to (X). It was released on 16 October 2000 by Mute Records. The album is essentially two mini-albums fused together, as half was written and performed by Ann Shenton and Steve Claydon, while the other half was written and performed by Barry 7, with occasional help from Dean Honer from The All Seeing I. Early prints of the album came with 'scratch and sniff' panels (it smelt of grass), and stickers."		1:46:26 (Pop-up)
Jane Weaver	Romantic Worlds "Romantic Worlds" by "Jane Weaver"	Romantic Worlds Single	Fire Records	2024	Brand New Jane Weaver? YES PLEASE! Last month, Jane Weaver announced a new album, Love In Constant Spectacle, which the British musician worked on with producer John Parish. “I wanted to write a really over the top love song, it’s kind of tongue in cheek and about romance and brief encounters with a wonky synth,” she shared. “It’s based on a ‘real life’ date after meeting online, how this changes from generation to generation and how romance is perceived now.”	*	1:57:26 (Pop-up)

	🏝 ♥ 8:11pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Roberto @8:09 We're trying to teach him how to shovel... It's been a light winter snow-wise... Apparently our worst day of Winter snow may be here at the beginning of Spring. Figures.
	8:11pm laurapanic: feeling beachy folks!
	♥ 8:12pm DJ Babs: Hello Hello Laura! I hope work is not getting in the way of your enjoyment tonight!!!

	♥ 8:20pm Roberto: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:18 Or just rip a big'n!
	🏝 ♥ 8:20pm ultradamno: Also, a severed head of an intern on a pike outside your cubicle really sends a message
	8:21pm laurapanic: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:18 this seems like an excellent strategy. "Scott the wellbeing officer says fuck off"
	♥ 8:21pm DJ Babs: Oh I've got things to say about Ween. A lot of things. Where Derek is like the Fall expert. I was obsessed with Ween for the first 5 records.
	8:21pm laurapanic: ↳ DJ Babs @8:21 there is a lot of corossover in fandom I reckon. A couple of months ago I just listened to all the parts of the STallion Suite in order every day.
	🏝 ♥ 8:22pm Scott_Oz: ↳ laurapanic @8:21 You can add a "please" if you deem it appropriate mate!?

	🏝 ♥ 8:37pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Tyler @8:33 I love how these Indirect Enquiries are somehow the same song... Wire are something special.
	♥ 8:38pm DJ Babs: ↳ DJ Blush @8:25 Wow those are seriously the same song?
	🏝 ♥ 8:38pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Roberto @8:32 Meep Moop is good radio when he actually says something into the mic... Otherwise it's a lot of waiting.

	♥ 8:39pm Roberto: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:34 What's your secret?
	8:39pm Tyler: ↳ Derek Westerholm @8:37 Never content to stay on auto-pilot. Two of my favourite Wire songs never appeared on any of their albums: Culture Vultures (only on a Peel Session) & Underwater Experiences (only demoed until recently re-recorded).

	♥ 8:48pm DJ Babs: This is most relaxing I will say.
	8:48pm John07928: ↳ DJ Babs @8:48 interesting tune
	8:48pm Tyler: The food in Quebec on all levels is amazing. When Metro Supermarkets first came to Ontario I was excited thinking we would get some of the amazing food they carry in Quebec. No such luck :(
	♥ 8:48pm DJ Babs: Can one be both peppy and relaxed? To me that's the holy grail of edibles...one that does that.
	🏝 ♥ 8:48pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Tyler @8:39 Ohh... So many radically different versions of Underwater Experiences...
	♥ 8:49pm DJ Babs: I prefer not to leave Quebec without havng had some sugar pie. That shit is amaaaazing.

	♥ 8:49pm DJ Babs: OOOOHHH AIR!!!!!
	🏝 ♥ 8:49pm ultradamno: Riverdale, man mastodon.social...

	🏝 ♥ 8:50pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ John07928 @8:44 Awww... Hello John! Glad to see you here!
	8:51pm DJ Blush: Aiiiiiiiiiir
	8:51pm Tyler: ↳ DJ Babs @8:49 The desserts there are works of art. I didn't want to stick my fork into it & ruin the presentation :)
	♥ 8:51pm DJ Babs: ↳ Tyler @8:50 Yeah that tracks. Everytime I go to Quebec I spend waaay too much at the markets.
	♥ 8:52pm Kristine: i went to jean talon market and got the same cheese as i had in my chevre chaud salad. And yes! their food is art! teenagers gush about food there like ours do about music!
	8:52pm Tyler: Sorry, Air - your concert tickets were to rarefied for me to get...
	♥ 8:53pm Kristine: i want to live in mtl. ahhhhhh!
	8:54pm Tyler: ↳ Kristine @8:53 I'd live there if my spoken French was good enough to get a job.
	8:54pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Kelly Watch The Stars (Live On The BBC 1998)" by ... Babs, been watching the struggle for tickets you have endured. Got 'em though!

	♥ 8:54pm DJ Babs: THIS IS AMAZING
	🏝 ♥ 8:55pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Kristine @8:53 Hello Kristine! Hmm... If you actually lived in Montreal would you have any ankles left at all?
	🏝 ♥ 8:55pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ ultradamno @8:54 lol
	8:55pm John07928: ↳ Tyler @8:54 can’t speak french, would be shit out of luck
	♥ 8:55pm DJ Babs: ↳ Tyler @8:52 I know that was a tough pill to swallow. They should have added a second show....
	🏝 ♥ 8:56pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Song: "Kelly Watch The Stars (Live On The BBC 1998)" by ... Quite the rockin version!
	8:56pm John07928: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:56 hello scott_oz
	♥ 8:56pm DJ Babs: I love visiting there...but I still love Toronto...even though my goodness they are trying really hard to make it unliveable. You've heard about Doug Ford tossing the multi plex builds? UGH
	8:57pm Tyler: ↳ DJ Babs @8:55 Yeah, definitely. I wouldn't want it to be in any bigger venue, but an added show would have been nice.
	♥ 8:57pm Kristine: ↳ Derek Westerholm @8:55 absolutely not! have you seen the stairs on their triplexes? i already sprained one missing a stair at my sister's in ottawa.
	🏝 ♥ 8:57pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Roberto @8:39 Dunno, good gut flora maybe? Never been able to gross out people with my essence.
	🏝 ♥ 8:57pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi DJ Babs, Derek, and all!!!

	♥ 8:59pm DJ Babs: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:57 ok we need to expand on gut flora here in this chat.
	♥ 9:00pm Kristine: ↳ Tyler @8:58 now people tell me! It also goes along with look where you are going and dont go out in dark spaces without lighting.
	🏝 ♥ 9:00pm ultradamno: I remember when people thought Bananamen were The Cramps (they were the Stingrays) www.discogs.com... There were rumors surrounding Pork Dukes ranging from Steeleye Span to Throbbing Gristle
	9:01pm Tyler: ↳ Kristine @9:00 Watch the stairs or you'll see stars! :)
	🏝 ♥ 9:01pm ultradamno: ...I feel like a consciousness raising effort around that Bananamen single is in order, as psychobilly goes, it's a motherfucker
	🏝 ♥ 9:02pm Derek Westerholm: And there were also all the theories as to who the Residents might be...
	🏝 ♥ 9:03pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Kristine @8:57 Yes! Many crazy stairs in Montreal, not easy in the best of weather, but killer in the winter...
	9:03pm Tyler: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:02 I think there was an urban myth rumour that The Residents were Kideo.
	9:04pm DJ Blush: KIDEO
	9:04pm DJ Blush: I was a big fan.
	🏝 ♥ 9:04pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @8:57 Hello WilltheeSG!!!
	🏝 ♥ 9:04pm ultradamno: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:02 Pen Jillette said he was at a show once where people near him were speculating on the subject and he said all four of their names out loud, which were, of course, of no meaning to them.
	9:04pm Tyler: ↳ DJ Blush @9:04 Kids CAN rock! :)
	🏝 ♥ 9:04pm Tom P: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @8:57 Hey Will!!
	🏝 ♥ 9:05pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ ultradamno @9:04 Haha.
	♥ 9:06pm DJ Babs: Heyooo @Will! :-)

	♥ 9:07pm Kristine: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:06 thank you Derek!
	♥ 9:07pm DJ Babs: Healing synth waves have magical powers...on ankles AND gut flora!
	🏝 ♥ 9:08pm ultradamno: Speaking of which, I picked up a Fred Frith and late Resident Hardy Fox album last BC Friday, very good klanggalerie.bandcamp.com... New album out from ex-Tuxedomoon Blaine Reininger klanggalerie.bandcamp.com...
	9:08pm Tyler: ↳ ultradamno @9:08 <3 me some Fred Frith!

	9:09pm Tyler: ↳ ultradamno @9:08 I was at a record store on the weekend that had the Snakefinger album, but I first need to get my turntable fixed.
	♥ 9:10pm DJ Babs: Scott! Laura! Do you know this band? I can't find anything about them!
	🏝 ♥ 9:10pm ultradamno: Klanggalerie has quite a bit of Snakey stuff on their page too
	9:10pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Fast Bikes" by "VALS ALARM" never heard of them! as usual you find the gems.
	9:11pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Fast Bikes" by "VALS ALARM" looks like they are actually Dutch
	♥ 9:12pm DJ Babs: I' am also wondering if they are Dutch or Swedes and LAURA you got it!!!
	♥ 9:12pm Kristine: ↳ DJ Babs @8:45 its not mild but not catastrophic. The chiro said 'good job young lady' when he saw it.
	🏝 ♥ 9:14pm Will thee Sound Guy: Diggin it

	🏝 ♥ 9:18pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Always Moving" by "Winston Margery" Only on Spotify?

	🏝 ♥ 9:40pm ultradamno: ↳ DJ Babs @9:38 At the time it was probably a good dog whistle way to seem hip to anyone who recognized him and anyone who would be offended would just think it was an old man. Now, it would probably be a Bud Light situation
	🏝 ♥ 9:41pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ northguineahills @9:39 Nothing wrong with a good, honest, well-intended sports taunting now and then.
	🏝 ♥ 9:41pm northguineahills: ↳ Bob Barth @9:39 Bob. i'd love to be there for the whole thing. i've been ill, and still going to work (new job). So, i'm going to sleep shortly after echo beach. love ya!

	🏝 ♥ 9:50pm northguineahills: ↳ ultradamno @9:45 last april, my trumper brothers, kept mocking bud lite and (trans), it was b/c their friends were around. when i met them in august., i was able to change their position (as their friends weren't around). they like to be seen as alphas. but bend when I use logic (nice people otherwise, and i love my niecs)
	9:52pm Bob Barth: ↳ northguineahills @9:41 I get it. Thats what the archives are for!
	🏝 ♥ 9:52pm northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @9:50 i swear i'm capable of constructing a coherent sentence. /now, where's my cogh syzzzyp?

	🏝 ♥ 9:56pm northguineahills: thanks babs and derek! huggles!
	🏝 ♥ 9:56pm ultradamno: ↳ northguineahills @9:50 So much of the whole thing was performative...down to Kid Rock setting the cans to explode on their own when he 'shot' at them.
