Listener comments!
	10:15am Rob Marvin: Won't be around tonight, but wanted to see if you can post before a show starts and say godspeed
	🎸 ♥ 7:26pm Austin Rich: Good Hello, and thank you Rob!
	♥ 8:55pm Imaginos: Ahoy. Nice image reference to Explorers
	🎸 ♥ 8:56pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @8:55 One of my all-time faves.
	♥ 8:57pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @8:56 Indeed. Mine, too. That, D.A.R.Y.L. and Mio in the Land of Faraway
	🎸 ♥ 9:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Let’s Go Trippin’" by "Dick Dale & His Del-Tones" I know this is not the first time I have opened my show with this song. But, hopefully, no one minds?
	9:01pm Geoff-U: Hullo!
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:01 Geoff-U! Thanks for droppin' in.
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Kat in the chat: Is the volume low? I've got the AC going so I can't tell for sure
	♥ 9:02pm Imaginos: The bears in the 70s preferred donuts
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:02 I think it's good? Anyone else feel like it's too quiet?
	♥ 9:02pm MarkTime: The bears love pic-a-nic baskets
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm univac: Hello, there. There.
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm Kat in the chat: Probably me. I'll adjust on my end!
	9:03pm Geoff-U: I'm having a completely sh*t-tastic day so please fix it with your awesome show. No pressure. :D
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm univac: Why do I have to solve Math when I post. I am logged in as I think you can see...?
	♥ 9:03pm Imaginos: ↳ MarkTime @9:02 Yogi, Booboo, and Cindy
	🎸 ♥ 9:04pm Kat in the chat: ↳ univac @9:03 That's really weird!
	♥ 9:04pm Imaginos: Awesome!
	🎸 ♥ 9:04pm Krys O.: Hi! Thought that was intentional droning.
	9:04pm Geoff-U: I like the MVM Opening Theme - good stuff
	🎸 ♥ 9:05pm Krys O.: John Dehner popped up recently when The Fastest Gun Alive with Glenn Ford was on TCM.
	🎸 ♥ 9:05pm Kat in the chat: It has been a spell. I'm more distractible in the warmer months!
	9:06pm ramencity: greetings from the basement!
	♥ 9:06pm Imaginos: Ouch! Dry or humid?
	♥ 9:08pm Imaginos: Sounds great here
	🎸 ♥ 9:08pm univac: Yay!
	♥ 9:08pm Imaginos: Is that a casio?
	🎸 ♥ 9:08pm Kat in the chat: Yeah the AC cycled off and it seems fine now
	9:08pm Mr. X: Hello from Hellmouth.
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:08 Mr. X! Nice to see you.
	🎸 ♥ 9:13pm Austin Rich: I think we are finally on the other side of the "heat." But that only means that it's no longer a three digit temperature.
	9:13pm Geoff-U: Today was day 5 of over-100°F weather... +24°F over seasonal over the seasonal average.
	9:15pm Geoff-U: Yay Sonic Youth! I saw S.Y. open for (or more accurately blow them off the stage) REM on their rather flaccid Monster tour
	🎸 ♥ 9:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Puzzles & Pens" by "Chris Phinney & Ed Drury" Chris Phinney is an experimental artist that has been trading tapes since the early 80's, and is still at it, but mostly through bandcamp and cdrs, now. Chris has been undertaking a huge re-issue project, digitizing all the many, many releases he put out in the 80's and 90's, for digital consumption these days. A very unique artist!
	♥ 9:15pm Imaginos: ↳ Geoff-U @9:13 Oh gods, that's when you think about visiting Hell to cool off
	🎸 ♥ 9:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:15 I got to see them a couple times before they broke up, and they put on a great show! I loved them, but I was also very fond of those albums.
	9:16pm Geoff-U: ↳ Imaginos @9:15 Yep and Oregonians have a mean operating temperature of about 55°-75° degree :D
	🎸 ♥ 9:17pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:16 Seriously! I am not used to this "+80 bullshit."
	9:18pm Geoff-U: I saw Nirvana open for SY at Melody Ballroom (or was it Starry Night?) and that was one hell of a show. Nirvana came out with a fury, was amazing
	🎸 ♥ 9:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:18 I noticed there's been a lot of Nirvana nostalgia the last week or so. Did I miss some sort of reunion announcement, or a re-issue disc or something?
	9:20pm Geoff-U: Austin you would probably enjoy the record "At Dusk" by Brian Ellis - reminds me of this Phinney/Drury a bit (and I really like it!)
	🎸 ♥ 9:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Riddles Riddling Me" by "Jandek" Through the magic of Radio trips to SxSW, I have managed to see Jandek play live three times. For an artist that was famously reclusive from the late 70's to 2005, and never played in front of people until then, I'm astonished that it happened at all. His shows are very strange and wonderful... really unlike anything else I've seen before.
	🎸 ♥ 9:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:20 I will check that out! Thanks for the tip.
	♥ 9:24pm Imaginos: No comic books?! Noooo!
	🎸 ♥ 9:24pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:24 In an all-sound world, there wouldn't be anything visual.
	9:25pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "We Got To Get Out of This Place" by "Fear" With a name like Lee Ving, one can assume he is getting out.
	♥ 9:26pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:24 So you still have access to Superman, Blue Beetle and others.
	🎸 ♥ 9:26pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "We Got To Get Out of This Place" by "Fear" The drummer for Fear lives in Portland. He got bored, living there, taking care of his mom, so he answered an ad for a local punk band, and now plays drums for Nasalrod, a punk band that RULES.
	🎸 ♥ 9:26pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Mr. X @9:25 good point
	🎸 ♥ 9:28pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Get Out And Get It" by "The Black Lips" I loved this album so much when it came out. And then I didn't listen to it for a long time. The lesson: don't do what Austin does. LOVE YOUR RECORDS OFTEN.
	🎸 ♥ 9:30pm Krys O.: G'night, all!
	9:30pm Geoff-U: I never checked out Nasalrod while I was living in PDX but heard tons of great things. I really miss seeing Gaytheist, and The Latter Day Skanks, speaking of awesome PDX punk bands
	🎸 ♥ 9:30pm Austin Rich: ↳ Krys O. @9:30 Sleep well, Krys O!
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Kat in the chat: Goodnight Krys!
	♥ 9:31pm Imaginos: At least you didn't have to try to convince a bunch of animals to chat with a lion
	9:31pm Mr. X: WC's diction has improved.
	🎸 ♥ 9:32pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:31 That's the "Next Time" bot's voice. (It sounds like a fancier version of the Weather Computer. Like, an English version.)
	♥ 9:36pm Imaginos: Looking forward to working on Lost Christobel again in the future
	9:36pm Geoff-U: Listening to the music and between-song dialog, chatting the chats, looking at the album covers, has seriously improved my day. Shakin' the blues off...
	♥ 9:38pm Imaginos: Disembodied voice? Gargravar?
	🎸 ♥ 9:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:36 That's good to hear! It's been a hell of a weird month. I'm going camping tomorrow morning, so a lot of this show was sort of shaded with that knowledge.
	🎸 ♥ 9:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:36 Me too!
	🎸 ♥ 9:39pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:38 Sort of?
	♥ 9:39pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:39 Welcome to the Vortex?
	9:39pm Geoff-U: ↳ Austin Rich @9:38 Camping sounds delightful... good timing haha
	🎸 ♥ 9:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Another Trip Around The Sun" by "Instagon" Instagon moved to the desert in Arizona, and now manages a lot of cool experimental stuff down there. This boxed set was available as nine separate albums, that you could get individually. But if you bought the "boxed set," it came with an extra album, and a nice box.
	🎸 ♥ 9:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Another Trip Around The Sun" by "Instagon" Instagon is all improvised, in the moment, and takes. a number of forms. (Harsh noise, jam band, electronic noodling, performance art.) I got to play with Instagon once, though I don't think it was my strongest performance with a group. Regardless, it wound up on the only Instagon vinyl release.
	♥ 9:42pm Imaginos: ↳ Geoff-U @9:39 Camping is fun. Unless you're in a tent in New Hampshire and forget your mattress. Then it becomes abundantly clear why its called the Granite State
	🎸 ♥ 9:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:42 Yeah, I have a checklist. And a nice little cot that I like, that folds up pretty small.
	9:43pm Mr. X: ↳ Imaginos @9:42 Might explain why I always take New Hampshire for granite.
	9:44pm Geoff-U: ↳ Imaginos @9:42 Haha I can imagine. I forgot my air mattress one year and was about to try to sleep in an inflatable kayak when someone discovered they'd brought a flat rectangular floaty and it work perfectly!
	🎸 ♥ 9:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Journey To The Stars" by "The Ventures" This album, where the Ventures do a lot of music inspired by outer space, is essentially the blue-print for Man... Or Astro-Man? (And, MOAM have covered a lot of the songs on this Ventures record, over the years.)
	🎸 ♥ 9:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Flaming Star (Live)" by "Thee Headliners" Recorded live on my show, in 2005.
	🎸 ♥ 9:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Flaming Star (Live)" by "Thee Headliners" Thee Headliners were a Portland rock band. Holly and JT dated, on and off again, during the time the band was together. I loved their shows, and they were a ton of fun. One of the first shows I ever saw in PDX after I moved there, was seeing Holly's band, The Newly Deads, and I've had a crush on her ever since.
	♥ 9:47pm Imaginos: The strangest end song for any movie was Benson Arizona from Dark Star
	9:47pm Mr. X: Some friends of mine in a band had to change the first word of their band name from "the" to "thee" because they found out some other band already had the same name. I guess that happens a lot.
	🎸 ♥ 9:48pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Flaming Star (Live)" by "Thee Headliners" I have a full live set, and interview with them, from 2005. I think it's online somewhere, but I should make sure.
	🎸 ♥ 9:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:47 There's technically another band called, "The Short Pockets," so if we ever do anything official, we'll have to do something like that.
	♥ 9:51pm Imaginos: Getting sleepy.
	🎸 ♥ 9:51pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:47 I love that, though. That movie is so great.
	🎸 ♥ 9:51pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:51 Sleep well! There's always next week.
	♥ 9:51pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:51 Agreed
	9:52pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "We Travel the Spaceways" by "Sun Ra And His Myth ... Sun Ra has such an extensive catalog, it's hard to choose favorites. But this is a good one!
	♥ 9:52pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:51 I will be there
	🎸 ♥ 9:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "We Travel the Spaceways" by "Sun Ra And His Myth ... As a youth, I just thought Sun Ra was a weird Jazz Guy. But as I get older, I keep hearing more stuff that he does where a musical phrase, or some rhythm pattern, will stick out, and I realize, no, he was really making something unusual and different but great, too. I find his albums very listenable.
	9:54pm Geoff-U: ↳ Austin Rich @9:53 Fun stuff... I need to experience more Sun Ra
	🎸 ♥ 9:54pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "The Furthest Stars" by "Shot Reverse Shot" I need to take the re-mastered tracks that Tim Maloney made for me, and do a proper re-issue of this album. It's not really available, and I didn't do an official "digital" release, ever.
	🎸 ♥ 9:59pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Space travel w/ changing choral textures (1983)" ... This compilation was a great introduction to Experimental electronic music, when I first got it in 2004. Before that, it was all stuff I had to hunt down through recommendations and word of mouth.
	10:00pm Mr. X: I'm starting to reach the age where I'm beginning to doubt that I'll ever have the opportunity to be a space tourist.
	🎸 ♥ 10:00pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:00 I know. That has been a hard pill to swallow. Along with all the pills I have to swallow just to stay healthy in the modern age.
	10:02pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:00 It's all I ever really wanted out of life. Oh well...
	🎸 ♥ 10:03pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:02 To swallow hard pills? Oh, good, because I have more. This calcium one I take, for example.
	10:03pm Geoff-U: My father-in-law had some VHS tapes of a funky Canadian sci-fi series called "The Starlost" and I think these sounds were half their sound effects library. And by "funky" I mean the space sideburns and space mustaches were very well represented, as was the style at the time
	10:04pm ramencity: You just have to become besties with a billionaire!
	10:05pm ramencity: ↳ Geoff-U @10:03 "In space, no one can hear you Canada!"
	10:05pm Geoff-U: How it's going is temps have plummeted to 90°F so I'm going to grab my thickest scratchy wool sweater
	10:06pm Geoff-U: ↳ ramencity @10:05 Hahaha only hosers in space anyway, eh?
	10:07pm ramencity: ↳ Geoff-U @10:06 "Fleshy-headed mutant, are you friendly eh?" "No way, eh. Radiation has made me an enemy of civilization!"
	10:07pm Barno (from Akron): Lurking, fellow kids.
	🎸 ♥ 10:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Barno (from Akron) @10:07 Thanks for joining us, Barno!
	🎸 ♥ 10:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Paperback Romance" by "Cathead" Here's some embarrassing juvenilia: my first band, with a song I wrote? Oh no...
	🎸 ♥ 10:10pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Austin Rich and mutants
	🎸 ♥ 10:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:10 coelacanthø! Now it's a party.
	🎸 ♥ 10:12pm Austin Rich: I guess I've always been obsessed with Romance Novels. (I've now written a few songs about them, over the years?) I'm not exactly sure why. They seem so ridiculous to me... and yet... they are more popular than anything I'll ever do, so...? What do I know?
	10:15pm Barno (from Akron): Thank you, Austin.
	🎸 ♥ 10:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Smokable Birth Control" by "Men's Recovery Project" I think about this song every day.
	🎸 ♥ 10:16pm Austin Rich: In a way, vaping is a sort of birth control unto itself, so I guess it did come true?
	10:16pm ramencity: You should write a romance novel!
	🎸 ♥ 10:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @10:16 One without the sexy parts? I'm not sure it would sell.
	🎸 ♥ 10:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Ego Tripping at the Gates of Hell" by "The Flamin... I'm a real sucker for this band. They have an album for almost every era of my life, and they are one of the few bands that really has aged with me as I have, in really great ways.
	10:23pm ramencity: Do Flaming Lips become Black Lips if you don't extinguish them?
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @10:23 Pretty much.
	10:24pm ramencity: If Mitch had a spin-off show, what would the concept be?
	🎸 ♥ 10:26pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @10:24 We had a show where it was established that Mitch likes to listen to machine noises, so they would probably do a short-show, about 15 minutes long, of different machine sounds each week.
	🎸 ♥ 10:26pm Austin Rich: And Mitch would probably complain each episode about how even 15 minutes is too long, because they have "stuff to do."
	10:27pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "Journey To The Center of The Mind" by "The Amboy ... Back when Ted Nugent was cool.
	🎸 ♥ 10:27pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:27 It wasn't long... but it still burns bright in my mind.
	10:28pm ramencity: He found the muskrat at thee centre of his myyyyynd
	🎸 ♥ 10:45pm Austin Rich: I recently sold a Dean Koontz novella at work, after I finished writing this. Sometimes the world rhymes with your art.
	🎸 ♥ 10:47pm Kat in the chat: yay train ride
	🎸 ♥ 10:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:47 I do love a good train ride. They are very meditative.
	🎸 ♥ 10:48pm Austin Rich: I now have a sub-section in my record collection for LPs that have "train" sounds on them. I think I have about 8 now? I'm sure there are more, but I'm starting to find repeats when I do look at records.
	🎸 ♥ 10:50pm Austin Rich: We'll go about 11 minutes over tonight. Sorry about that!
	10:51pm Mr. X: The train theme after the space theme makes me think of Galaxy Express 999.
	🎸 ♥ 10:51pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Austin Rich @10:48 hounds of Love; shangri-las 65 ...
	🎸 ♥ 10:51pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:51 I need to look that up. I've never seen that, but I know you've mentioned it before.
	10:52pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:51 It's not great, but still kind of foundational to the whole anime genre.
	🎸 ♥ 10:53pm Austin Rich: My dad worked for the railroad - Southern Pacific, when that was a think - for years, until he got hurt, and then was the Union Representative, for his old gang. He worked long hours, was often gone for weeks at a time for work. I would always imagine him, riding the rails, when he was gone.
	🎸 ♥ 10:56pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Cup of Dreams" by "Thinking Fellers Union Local 282" I'm a little obsessed with this band. Again.
	🎸 ♥ 10:58pm Austin Rich: I made a reference to my first tour. When I did my first, Mini-Mutations tour, where I had almost 20 dates across a month, I couldn't drive yet. So I took buses, trains, and the kindness of tour-mates, to complete that tour. A very long train ride, from Sacramento to Salem, was in the middle of that tour, and was very long and memorable.
	10:58pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:56 We warmed up for them in Olympia about 10 years back.
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:58 Nice! I've only seen their spin-off band - White Shark Sivers, which is essentially them, but with a slightly different line-up. Those folks are all VERY good musicians.
	🎸 ♥ 11:00pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Austin Rich @10:58 amazing!
	🎸 ♥ 11:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:00 My two other tours were in my car. I sort of learned how to drive to make touring easier. (And to take the burden off my wife, for always driving me to shows.)
	11:01pm wenzo: Hello Sir Austin
	🎸 ♥ 11:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @11:01 Wenzo! Thanks for popping in.
	🎸 ♥ 11:02pm Austin Rich: This was Marla's contribution to the show tonight. She recorded the snoring sounds that you hear, when I fell asleep one night. I was happy to get that recording forwarded to me.
	11:02pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:59 Someone was taking a video of that show. Would love to get my hands on it.
	🎸 ♥ 11:03pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @11:02 Oh, yeah. I bet that's floating around in someone's archive.
	11:03pm wenzo: Are you gonna post an 8 hour loop of this as a black-screen video on YouTube
	11:04pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @11:02 Still waiting for Marla to produce a Goth show for Mid-Valley Mutations...
	🎸 ♥ 11:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @11:03 That does seem to be what a lot of drone artists do these days. Funny you should make that joke; my Postal Psounds audio postcard this month - which is late - is a 12 Hour ambient recording of my back patio...
	🎸 ♥ 11:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @11:04 I keep asking, but she hasn't been in the mood yet. But she did say maybe this fall or winter.
	11:05pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @11:05 Yay!
	🎸 ♥ 11:06pm Kat in the chat: I like the authentic snores. This has been a really good Mini-Mutation tonight
	🎸 ♥ 11:06pm Austin Rich: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:06 Ahh, thanks. I had fun making this one. I used to say that my radio show was my "therapy" sessions. Sorry to make that real this time!
	🎸 ♥ 11:07pm Kat in the chat: No need to apologize!
	🎸 ♥ 11:09pm WR: Came for the Firesign Nordine Mini-Mutations. Stayed for the snoring on the train.
	🎸 ♥ 11:09pm Austin Rich: Thanks again everyone! See ya next week.
	11:09pm wenzo: Thanks Austin! 🙏
	🎸 ♥ 11:09pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Rich!
	11:10pm Mr. X: Thanks for taking my mind off it being hotter than heater in Hellmouth. Good show, good music, weird rhyming clues, I can feel the heat wave subsiding already.

Mid-Valley Mutations with Austin Rich: Playlist from July 9, 2024

View austinrich's profile

A combination of collage, new experimental records and other bits and bobs, Mid-Valley Mutations is a tour through the mind of Austin Rich, who has been broadcasting in some form since 1998. Heavily influenced by Dr Demento, Don Joyce and old fashioned College Radio, Austin creates Audio Essays on a variety of subjects, and even just plays records, from time to time. Sometimes Live music and Interviews will grace the program, helping create a situation where you don't really know what you're going to hear, when you tune in. What you need to know is when you enter the Mid-Valley region, be prepared for the Musical Mutations... in whatever form they take.

Listener comments!
	10:15am Rob Marvin: Won't be around tonight, but wanted to see if you can post before a show starts and say godspeed
	🎸 ♥ 7:26pm Austin Rich: Good Hello, and thank you Rob!
	♥ 8:55pm Imaginos: Ahoy. Nice image reference to Explorers
	🎸 ♥ 8:56pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @8:55 One of my all-time faves.
	♥ 8:57pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @8:56 Indeed. Mine, too. That, D.A.R.Y.L. and Mio in the Land of Faraway
	🎸 ♥ 9:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Let’s Go Trippin’" by "Dick Dale & His Del-Tones" I know this is not the first time I have opened my show with this song. But, hopefully, no one minds?
	9:01pm Geoff-U: Hullo!
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:01 Geoff-U! Thanks for droppin' in.
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Kat in the chat: Is the volume low? I've got the AC going so I can't tell for sure
	♥ 9:02pm Imaginos: The bears in the 70s preferred donuts
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:02 I think it's good? Anyone else feel like it's too quiet?
	♥ 9:02pm MarkTime: The bears love pic-a-nic baskets
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm univac: Hello, there. There.
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm Kat in the chat: Probably me. I'll adjust on my end!
	9:03pm Geoff-U: I'm having a completely sh*t-tastic day so please fix it with your awesome show. No pressure. :D
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm univac: Why do I have to solve Math when I post. I am logged in as I think you can see...?
	♥ 9:03pm Imaginos: ↳ MarkTime @9:02 Yogi, Booboo, and Cindy
	🎸 ♥ 9:04pm Kat in the chat: ↳ univac @9:03 That's really weird!
	♥ 9:04pm Imaginos: Awesome!
	🎸 ♥ 9:04pm Krys O.: Hi! Thought that was intentional droning.
	9:04pm Geoff-U: I like the MVM Opening Theme - good stuff
	🎸 ♥ 9:05pm Krys O.: John Dehner popped up recently when The Fastest Gun Alive with Glenn Ford was on TCM.
	🎸 ♥ 9:05pm Kat in the chat: It has been a spell. I'm more distractible in the warmer months!
	9:06pm ramencity: greetings from the basement!
	♥ 9:06pm Imaginos: Ouch! Dry or humid?
	♥ 9:08pm Imaginos: Sounds great here
	🎸 ♥ 9:08pm univac: Yay!
	♥ 9:08pm Imaginos: Is that a casio?
	🎸 ♥ 9:08pm Kat in the chat: Yeah the AC cycled off and it seems fine now
	9:08pm Mr. X: Hello from Hellmouth.
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:08 Mr. X! Nice to see you.
	🎸 ♥ 9:13pm Austin Rich: I think we are finally on the other side of the "heat." But that only means that it's no longer a three digit temperature.
	9:13pm Geoff-U: Today was day 5 of over-100°F weather... +24°F over seasonal over the seasonal average.
	9:15pm Geoff-U: Yay Sonic Youth! I saw S.Y. open for (or more accurately blow them off the stage) REM on their rather flaccid Monster tour
	🎸 ♥ 9:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Puzzles & Pens" by "Chris Phinney & Ed Drury" Chris Phinney is an experimental artist that has been trading tapes since the early 80's, and is still at it, but mostly through bandcamp and cdrs, now. Chris has been undertaking a huge re-issue project, digitizing all the many, many releases he put out in the 80's and 90's, for digital consumption these days. A very unique artist!
	♥ 9:15pm Imaginos: ↳ Geoff-U @9:13 Oh gods, that's when you think about visiting Hell to cool off
	🎸 ♥ 9:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:15 I got to see them a couple times before they broke up, and they put on a great show! I loved them, but I was also very fond of those albums.
	9:16pm Geoff-U: ↳ Imaginos @9:15 Yep and Oregonians have a mean operating temperature of about 55°-75° degree :D
	🎸 ♥ 9:17pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:16 Seriously! I am not used to this "+80 bullshit."
	9:18pm Geoff-U: I saw Nirvana open for SY at Melody Ballroom (or was it Starry Night?) and that was one hell of a show. Nirvana came out with a fury, was amazing
	🎸 ♥ 9:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:18 I noticed there's been a lot of Nirvana nostalgia the last week or so. Did I miss some sort of reunion announcement, or a re-issue disc or something?
	9:20pm Geoff-U: Austin you would probably enjoy the record "At Dusk" by Brian Ellis - reminds me of this Phinney/Drury a bit (and I really like it!)
	🎸 ♥ 9:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Riddles Riddling Me" by "Jandek" Through the magic of Radio trips to SxSW, I have managed to see Jandek play live three times. For an artist that was famously reclusive from the late 70's to 2005, and never played in front of people until then, I'm astonished that it happened at all. His shows are very strange and wonderful... really unlike anything else I've seen before.
	🎸 ♥ 9:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:20 I will check that out! Thanks for the tip.
	♥ 9:24pm Imaginos: No comic books?! Noooo!
	🎸 ♥ 9:24pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:24 In an all-sound world, there wouldn't be anything visual.
	9:25pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "We Got To Get Out of This Place" by "Fear" With a name like Lee Ving, one can assume he is getting out.
	♥ 9:26pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:24 So you still have access to Superman, Blue Beetle and others.
	🎸 ♥ 9:26pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "We Got To Get Out of This Place" by "Fear" The drummer for Fear lives in Portland. He got bored, living there, taking care of his mom, so he answered an ad for a local punk band, and now plays drums for Nasalrod, a punk band that RULES.
	🎸 ♥ 9:26pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Mr. X @9:25 good point
	🎸 ♥ 9:28pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Get Out And Get It" by "The Black Lips" I loved this album so much when it came out. And then I didn't listen to it for a long time. The lesson: don't do what Austin does. LOVE YOUR RECORDS OFTEN.
	🎸 ♥ 9:30pm Krys O.: G'night, all!
	9:30pm Geoff-U: I never checked out Nasalrod while I was living in PDX but heard tons of great things. I really miss seeing Gaytheist, and The Latter Day Skanks, speaking of awesome PDX punk bands
	🎸 ♥ 9:30pm Austin Rich: ↳ Krys O. @9:30 Sleep well, Krys O!
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Kat in the chat: Goodnight Krys!
	♥ 9:31pm Imaginos: At least you didn't have to try to convince a bunch of animals to chat with a lion
	9:31pm Mr. X: WC's diction has improved.
	🎸 ♥ 9:32pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:31 That's the "Next Time" bot's voice. (It sounds like a fancier version of the Weather Computer. Like, an English version.)
	♥ 9:36pm Imaginos: Looking forward to working on Lost Christobel again in the future
	9:36pm Geoff-U: Listening to the music and between-song dialog, chatting the chats, looking at the album covers, has seriously improved my day. Shakin' the blues off...
	♥ 9:38pm Imaginos: Disembodied voice? Gargravar?
	🎸 ♥ 9:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:36 That's good to hear! It's been a hell of a weird month. I'm going camping tomorrow morning, so a lot of this show was sort of shaded with that knowledge.
	🎸 ♥ 9:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:36 Me too!
	🎸 ♥ 9:39pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:38 Sort of?
	♥ 9:39pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:39 Welcome to the Vortex?
	9:39pm Geoff-U: ↳ Austin Rich @9:38 Camping sounds delightful... good timing haha
	🎸 ♥ 9:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Another Trip Around The Sun" by "Instagon" Instagon moved to the desert in Arizona, and now manages a lot of cool experimental stuff down there. This boxed set was available as nine separate albums, that you could get individually. But if you bought the "boxed set," it came with an extra album, and a nice box.
	🎸 ♥ 9:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Another Trip Around The Sun" by "Instagon" Instagon is all improvised, in the moment, and takes. a number of forms. (Harsh noise, jam band, electronic noodling, performance art.) I got to play with Instagon once, though I don't think it was my strongest performance with a group. Regardless, it wound up on the only Instagon vinyl release.
	♥ 9:42pm Imaginos: ↳ Geoff-U @9:39 Camping is fun. Unless you're in a tent in New Hampshire and forget your mattress. Then it becomes abundantly clear why its called the Granite State
	🎸 ♥ 9:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:42 Yeah, I have a checklist. And a nice little cot that I like, that folds up pretty small.
	9:43pm Mr. X: ↳ Imaginos @9:42 Might explain why I always take New Hampshire for granite.
	9:44pm Geoff-U: ↳ Imaginos @9:42 Haha I can imagine. I forgot my air mattress one year and was about to try to sleep in an inflatable kayak when someone discovered they'd brought a flat rectangular floaty and it work perfectly!
	🎸 ♥ 9:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Journey To The Stars" by "The Ventures" This album, where the Ventures do a lot of music inspired by outer space, is essentially the blue-print for Man... Or Astro-Man? (And, MOAM have covered a lot of the songs on this Ventures record, over the years.)
	🎸 ♥ 9:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Flaming Star (Live)" by "Thee Headliners" Recorded live on my show, in 2005.
	🎸 ♥ 9:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Flaming Star (Live)" by "Thee Headliners" Thee Headliners were a Portland rock band. Holly and JT dated, on and off again, during the time the band was together. I loved their shows, and they were a ton of fun. One of the first shows I ever saw in PDX after I moved there, was seeing Holly's band, The Newly Deads, and I've had a crush on her ever since.
	♥ 9:47pm Imaginos: The strangest end song for any movie was Benson Arizona from Dark Star
	9:47pm Mr. X: Some friends of mine in a band had to change the first word of their band name from "the" to "thee" because they found out some other band already had the same name. I guess that happens a lot.
	🎸 ♥ 9:48pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Flaming Star (Live)" by "Thee Headliners" I have a full live set, and interview with them, from 2005. I think it's online somewhere, but I should make sure.
	🎸 ♥ 9:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:47 There's technically another band called, "The Short Pockets," so if we ever do anything official, we'll have to do something like that.
	♥ 9:51pm Imaginos: Getting sleepy.
	🎸 ♥ 9:51pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:47 I love that, though. That movie is so great.
	🎸 ♥ 9:51pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:51 Sleep well! There's always next week.
	♥ 9:51pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:51 Agreed
	9:52pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "We Travel the Spaceways" by "Sun Ra And His Myth ... Sun Ra has such an extensive catalog, it's hard to choose favorites. But this is a good one!
	♥ 9:52pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:51 I will be there
	🎸 ♥ 9:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "We Travel the Spaceways" by "Sun Ra And His Myth ... As a youth, I just thought Sun Ra was a weird Jazz Guy. But as I get older, I keep hearing more stuff that he does where a musical phrase, or some rhythm pattern, will stick out, and I realize, no, he was really making something unusual and different but great, too. I find his albums very listenable.
	9:54pm Geoff-U: ↳ Austin Rich @9:53 Fun stuff... I need to experience more Sun Ra
	🎸 ♥ 9:54pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "The Furthest Stars" by "Shot Reverse Shot" I need to take the re-mastered tracks that Tim Maloney made for me, and do a proper re-issue of this album. It's not really available, and I didn't do an official "digital" release, ever.
	🎸 ♥ 9:59pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Space travel w/ changing choral textures (1983)" ... This compilation was a great introduction to Experimental electronic music, when I first got it in 2004. Before that, it was all stuff I had to hunt down through recommendations and word of mouth.
	10:00pm Mr. X: I'm starting to reach the age where I'm beginning to doubt that I'll ever have the opportunity to be a space tourist.
	🎸 ♥ 10:00pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:00 I know. That has been a hard pill to swallow. Along with all the pills I have to swallow just to stay healthy in the modern age.
	10:02pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:00 It's all I ever really wanted out of life. Oh well...
	🎸 ♥ 10:03pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:02 To swallow hard pills? Oh, good, because I have more. This calcium one I take, for example.
	10:03pm Geoff-U: My father-in-law had some VHS tapes of a funky Canadian sci-fi series called "The Starlost" and I think these sounds were half their sound effects library. And by "funky" I mean the space sideburns and space mustaches were very well represented, as was the style at the time
	10:04pm ramencity: You just have to become besties with a billionaire!
	10:05pm ramencity: ↳ Geoff-U @10:03 "In space, no one can hear you Canada!"
	10:05pm Geoff-U: How it's going is temps have plummeted to 90°F so I'm going to grab my thickest scratchy wool sweater
	10:06pm Geoff-U: ↳ ramencity @10:05 Hahaha only hosers in space anyway, eh?
	10:07pm ramencity: ↳ Geoff-U @10:06 "Fleshy-headed mutant, are you friendly eh?" "No way, eh. Radiation has made me an enemy of civilization!"
	10:07pm Barno (from Akron): Lurking, fellow kids.
	🎸 ♥ 10:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Barno (from Akron) @10:07 Thanks for joining us, Barno!
	🎸 ♥ 10:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Paperback Romance" by "Cathead" Here's some embarrassing juvenilia: my first band, with a song I wrote? Oh no...
	🎸 ♥ 10:10pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Austin Rich and mutants
	🎸 ♥ 10:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:10 coelacanthø! Now it's a party.
	🎸 ♥ 10:12pm Austin Rich: I guess I've always been obsessed with Romance Novels. (I've now written a few songs about them, over the years?) I'm not exactly sure why. They seem so ridiculous to me... and yet... they are more popular than anything I'll ever do, so...? What do I know?
	10:15pm Barno (from Akron): Thank you, Austin.
	🎸 ♥ 10:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Smokable Birth Control" by "Men's Recovery Project" I think about this song every day.
	🎸 ♥ 10:16pm Austin Rich: In a way, vaping is a sort of birth control unto itself, so I guess it did come true?
	10:16pm ramencity: You should write a romance novel!
	🎸 ♥ 10:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @10:16 One without the sexy parts? I'm not sure it would sell.
	🎸 ♥ 10:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Ego Tripping at the Gates of Hell" by "The Flamin... I'm a real sucker for this band. They have an album for almost every era of my life, and they are one of the few bands that really has aged with me as I have, in really great ways.
	10:23pm ramencity: Do Flaming Lips become Black Lips if you don't extinguish them?
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @10:23 Pretty much.
	10:24pm ramencity: If Mitch had a spin-off show, what would the concept be?
	🎸 ♥ 10:26pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @10:24 We had a show where it was established that Mitch likes to listen to machine noises, so they would probably do a short-show, about 15 minutes long, of different machine sounds each week.
	🎸 ♥ 10:26pm Austin Rich: And Mitch would probably complain each episode about how even 15 minutes is too long, because they have "stuff to do."
	10:27pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "Journey To The Center of The Mind" by "The Amboy ... Back when Ted Nugent was cool.
	🎸 ♥ 10:27pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:27 It wasn't long... but it still burns bright in my mind.
	10:28pm ramencity: He found the muskrat at thee centre of his myyyyynd
	🎸 ♥ 10:45pm Austin Rich: I recently sold a Dean Koontz novella at work, after I finished writing this. Sometimes the world rhymes with your art.
	🎸 ♥ 10:47pm Kat in the chat: yay train ride
	🎸 ♥ 10:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:47 I do love a good train ride. They are very meditative.
	🎸 ♥ 10:48pm Austin Rich: I now have a sub-section in my record collection for LPs that have "train" sounds on them. I think I have about 8 now? I'm sure there are more, but I'm starting to find repeats when I do look at records.
	🎸 ♥ 10:50pm Austin Rich: We'll go about 11 minutes over tonight. Sorry about that!
	10:51pm Mr. X: The train theme after the space theme makes me think of Galaxy Express 999.
	🎸 ♥ 10:51pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Austin Rich @10:48 hounds of Love; shangri-las 65 ...
	🎸 ♥ 10:51pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:51 I need to look that up. I've never seen that, but I know you've mentioned it before.
	10:52pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:51 It's not great, but still kind of foundational to the whole anime genre.
	🎸 ♥ 10:53pm Austin Rich: My dad worked for the railroad - Southern Pacific, when that was a think - for years, until he got hurt, and then was the Union Representative, for his old gang. He worked long hours, was often gone for weeks at a time for work. I would always imagine him, riding the rails, when he was gone.
	🎸 ♥ 10:56pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Cup of Dreams" by "Thinking Fellers Union Local 282" I'm a little obsessed with this band. Again.
	🎸 ♥ 10:58pm Austin Rich: I made a reference to my first tour. When I did my first, Mini-Mutations tour, where I had almost 20 dates across a month, I couldn't drive yet. So I took buses, trains, and the kindness of tour-mates, to complete that tour. A very long train ride, from Sacramento to Salem, was in the middle of that tour, and was very long and memorable.
	10:58pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:56 We warmed up for them in Olympia about 10 years back.
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:58 Nice! I've only seen their spin-off band - White Shark Sivers, which is essentially them, but with a slightly different line-up. Those folks are all VERY good musicians.
	🎸 ♥ 11:00pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Austin Rich @10:58 amazing!
	🎸 ♥ 11:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:00 My two other tours were in my car. I sort of learned how to drive to make touring easier. (And to take the burden off my wife, for always driving me to shows.)
	11:01pm wenzo: Hello Sir Austin
	🎸 ♥ 11:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @11:01 Wenzo! Thanks for popping in.
	🎸 ♥ 11:02pm Austin Rich: This was Marla's contribution to the show tonight. She recorded the snoring sounds that you hear, when I fell asleep one night. I was happy to get that recording forwarded to me.
	11:02pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:59 Someone was taking a video of that show. Would love to get my hands on it.
	🎸 ♥ 11:03pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @11:02 Oh, yeah. I bet that's floating around in someone's archive.
	11:03pm wenzo: Are you gonna post an 8 hour loop of this as a black-screen video on YouTube
	11:04pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @11:02 Still waiting for Marla to produce a Goth show for Mid-Valley Mutations...
	🎸 ♥ 11:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @11:03 That does seem to be what a lot of drone artists do these days. Funny you should make that joke; my Postal Psounds audio postcard this month - which is late - is a 12 Hour ambient recording of my back patio...
	🎸 ♥ 11:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @11:04 I keep asking, but she hasn't been in the mood yet. But she did say maybe this fall or winter.
	11:05pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @11:05 Yay!
	🎸 ♥ 11:06pm Kat in the chat: I like the authentic snores. This has been a really good Mini-Mutation tonight
	🎸 ♥ 11:06pm Austin Rich: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:06 Ahh, thanks. I had fun making this one. I used to say that my radio show was my "therapy" sessions. Sorry to make that real this time!
	🎸 ♥ 11:07pm Kat in the chat: No need to apologize!
	🎸 ♥ 11:09pm WR: Came for the Firesign Nordine Mini-Mutations. Stayed for the snoring on the train.
	🎸 ♥ 11:09pm Austin Rich: Thanks again everyone! See ya next week.
	11:09pm wenzo: Thanks Austin! 🙏
	🎸 ♥ 11:09pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Rich!
	11:10pm Mr. X: Thanks for taking my mind off it being hotter than heater in Hellmouth. Good show, good music, weird rhyming clues, I can feel the heat wave subsiding already.
