	9:11pm Imaginos: The world is burning and I'm providing the marshmallows.
	9:22pm Imaginos: When you look into a mirror, who controls your mind? You, your reflection, or the mirror?
	9:24pm Geoff-U: It's kind of funny, I watched a Black Mirror last night (which I hadn't in a while) and these ambient mind-themes are reminding me of it haha
	9:27pm Imaginos: Have you ever seen the movie MindWarp?
	9:29pm Imaginos: Another good dream song is Dream Away by George Harrison

	9:36pm Charles: Yeah, everything's super
	9:36pm Imaginos: Lost Christobel maybe?
	♥ 9:41pm Austin Rich: It was a real eye opener to re-listen to some of my favorite Over The Edge episodes, and realize that Don would insert a full song that lined up with the theme, to give the mix some chances to breath. I realized I need to do that more.
	9:44pm Imaginos: If the brain rested your heart would stop
	9:47pm laurapanic: I just arrived and the first words are "they were sexually aroused". Oh my goodness! clutches pearls
	9:49pm laurapanic: OK just catching up with what today is about...OK lets gooooooooooo
	9:50pm Geoff-U: That would be a cool band name - "Rapid Eye Movement"
	9:50pm Geoff-U: or just REM for short?
	9:51pm Imaginos: ↳ Geoff-U @9:50 You mean REM?
	9:51pm Imaginos: ↳ Geoff-U @9:50 Jinx
	♥ 9:57pm Austin Rich: Hey! laurapanic's here. Hopefully pearl clutching now and then is okay?
	9:57pm Geoff-U: Boy Band name idea: Rapid Guy Movement
	9:58pm Imaginos: ↳ Geoff-U @9:57 Good one
	♥ 9:58pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:57 I would buy that album!
	10:01pm Imaginos: Chaos at its finest
	10:01pm laurapanic: ↳ Geoff-U @9:57 bwaahahaa
	♥ 10:01pm Austin Rich: wfmu.org...
	10:01pm Heather Z: The scrambling is sounding fantastic!! Been tuned in from the jump and loving the sounds!
	10:04pm Imaginos: ↳ Heather Z @10:01 I agree
	10:07pm Imaginos: The Phoenix Asteroids
	♥ 10:12pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Troubles On My Mind" by "Holly Golightly" In general, there should be more Holly Golightly this year.
	10:18pm David Shortell: ↳ Austin Rich @10:12 I wish she'd go back to rocking like this. I'm not as fond of the Americana she's been doing with the Brokeoffs for several years.
	♥ 10:28pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @10:18 I didn't realize! Here I was listening to her good albums.
	10:29pm Imaginos: Interesting music and segments tonight
	10:31pm Heather Z: If there was a blip, it didn't even register on my ears!
	10:32pm Imaginos: ↳ Heather Z @10:31 I didn't notice either
	10:32pm Johnny Walsh: ↳ Song: "Lavender Vortex / Staircase" by "Dream Waves" nice
	♥ 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ Johnny Walsh @10:32 Yeah, I really like that tape.
	10:41pm David Shortell: ↳ Imaginos @9:34 I'm reading up on it now. I didn't know there was a town in Michigan called Gay.
	10:43pm Heather Z: You might have already thought of this and nixed it, Austin, but Mike Birbiglia's Sleepwalk With Me might be a good source for samples if you're looking for more?
	10:47pm Imaginos: Goblins song The Phenomenon would have been good
	10:47pm Imaginos: ↳ Heather Z @10:43 Was that the one from Sleepwalkers?
	10:48pm Imaginos: Oh that one
	10:49pm Heather Z: ↳ Imaginos @10:48 Yes, he's got a book about his sleepwalking and then there's a movie, too. Probably a stand up special? And definitely an ep of This American Life where he does excerpts. I really think Mike Birbiglia is so talented!!
	10:50pm Imaginos: Just be careful its not a Dread Gazebo
	10:52pm Heather Z: There is a book, too, and it's terrific! It's that time so I'll say thanks to you, Austin, for another great show and I hope everyone out there has a great rest of their day or night!
	♥ 10:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "My Brain Is Hanging Upside Down (Bonzo Goes To Bi... I have been thinking about this song so much this month. What a fucked up time to live through... then and now...
	10:53pm Imaginos: Good night. Pleasant dreams. Enjoy the Blanket Show.
	10:55pm David Shortell: ↳ Austin Rich @10:53 I don't know how the song got past Johnny.
	♥ 10:59pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @10:55 He probably slept through production meetings.
	♥ 11:01pm Austin Rich: Thanks for tuning in everyone! This actually worked, for a last minute, live cut up affair. See ya next week!
	🎸 ♥ 11:50pm Arvo Zylo: Aw man, just missed it. Will have to catch the replay. Delia Derbyshire did a record where she makes music to people recounting their dreams, I may still have a bootleg LP of it. Also, I think FM Einheit did a record where he does music to people recounting their dreams, if I recall correctly. I will try to catch next week!

Mid-Valley Mutations with Austin Rich: Playlist from February 11, 2025

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.
