  9:50am
stingy d:

@ cheri- if you are referring to me:
i forget the interview... but he was asked if he was influenced by techno, and he refused to acknowledge its existence, by way of having never heard of it.
  9:53am
Cheri Pi:

So he composes music in a vacuum, denying all outside influences-that's classy.
  9:54am
stingy d:

yea. kinda like how we can't even discuss hip-hop the way jason wants to engage us, because krs-one is the creator of all things, and he does not recognize us as his pupils, thus we do not exist.
  9:55am
postmanpaul:

I used to buy my tapes from The Friday Market, just down from Salaḥ ad-Din's Palace. They were sold beneath the fly-over, between the bird/snake market and fravelling story-tellers' children who would leap thru burning hoops all afternoon...
  9:56am

dc pat:

15. Tottenham 1, West Ham 0
  10:03am
postmanpaul:

That's not so much an answer but more a foregone conclusion dc pat. But you are not wrong, therefore I will accept it.
  10:05am

great show today Jason!
  10:05am
olgu:

amazing show Jason, thankssss!
  10:06am
annie:

16. to reach the other side
  10:07am
postmanpaul:

That would translate into Egyptian Arabic as; Zamelek 1 Ahly 0.
  10:11am
annie:

i've always wondered what contemporary cultures listen to for music.. this has been really great. i've got to get my short wave radio back
  10:11am
jason:

later on we'll hear some contemporary sha'abi music from Egypt and dabke from Syria
  10:12am
postmanpaul:

Jason, an Egyptian artist friend introduced me to this dj's work while I was over there. While not being Egyptian, his music reminds me of trips into the Sinai...

postmanpaul:

Sorry Bad Ronald - the answer to no 17. should have been '40 Days and 40 Nights'.
  10:20am
Bad Ronald:

Dammit, I was gonna say that. Is there a consolation prize?
  10:21am

  10:27am
postmanpaul:

Will be back to mark your paper soon annie. I, aghhm, note that some of your cleverererer class mates may have lent a hand.
  10:32am
annie:

...... so, you noticed the notes being passed?? crap!
  10:36am
jason:

hope everybody's cool with the scratchiness of these records
  10:36am
dc pat:

more scratches!
  10:38am
Bad Ronald:

So I guess PostmanPaul is our Cairo Proctor... *ducks barrage of projectiles**
  10:38am
annie:

oh yeah scratch away!!!
  10:40am
Joe McG:

Bring the (surface) noise, Jason! This sounds amazing.
  10:40am
annie:

BR- that's not as bad as the brick joke, not at all..
  10:41am
Cecile:

Great stuff.
My take on reissuing stuff w/o permission is to try to find the person, and keep trying to find the person, even after the record is issued.

Barring that, keep it in a super-limited edition.
  10:44am
Cecile:

that's what the guys at a couple of labels around here do, and they've done OK by that.
  10:46am
Ne-guh-tor:

Cecile-Agreed. I think the artifact is more important than the artist and, in some cases, will outlive even the artists total existence! Shit. That 'What a Wonderful World' song that Louis A. hated he couldn't even remember. When he was told that it had hit No. 1 he couldn't remember what song it was. After he heard it he was quoted as saying, "Oh, that piece of shit!"
  10:47am
Cecile:

Yes, but there has to be due diligence. And that takes work. I know how hard these guys have worked to find people. It's a respect thing.
  10:49am
dc pat:

this is a KILLER show, thanks Jason
  10:50am
postmanpaul:

Mohammed, hail me a Faluka!
Exceptional sound-scape Jason.
  10:51am
Cecile:

what are record stores like in Cairo? I envision them draped with fabric, a beaded curtain separating the front from the back. Reality's probably a lot different, hunh?
  10:56am
jason:

well this place Mazzika was more of an antique shop, in a mall-ish building with open-air stairwells/hallways, upstairs, a few different rooms. more photos on the way to the playlist
  10:57am
postmanpaul:

As Jason is probably aware Cecile, they do not exist as we know them. If at all.
  11:02am
postmanpaul:

Was the mall Arcadia, op' Zamalek Jason?
We used to catch bands with 'traditional' swarthy young male crooners performing in the cafe upstairs in Maadi... You're excelling yourself Jason.
  11:02am
Rodney:

Ok, this Arabic baby song with the latin backbeat is killing me. Kind of amazing.
  11:03am
Cecile:

Nice, Jason. So, records are just sold with everything else? That sounds like a good way to go.
  11:06am
jk:

hot song!.
I think this is posted on radiodiffusion, no?
  11:06am
Rob W:

Comparing notes - there are certainly music shops and stalls in cities in Morocco but it's all bootleg cds and still some cassettes, and tend to be fairly similar from one to the next. Marrakech actually has a section with larger "distributor" shops. Not all that different from going into an Indian music shop in Jackson Heights or Jersey City, say. There must be similar in Cairo. One question would be whether it's all bootleg or some legit. Turkey on the other hand, at least Istanbul and Ankara, is totally different, more legit shops (not bootleg), shops are more diverse in character and orientation - much more like Europe or here.
  11:10am
umm hafi:

in my experience, egyptians are more of the we-listen-to-music-from-our-cell-phones types, not so much record-buying types (the former is much cheaper for most people), so the only place to find vinyl is in antique shops where people who care about old stuff work.
  11:12am
still b/p:

Loved those organ-ic selections. Have to go back later for tracks missed due to work interference. Nice, nice show.
  11:12am
Cecile:

thanks, that's giving me a much better picture.

This particular song's chorus could be lifted for a great hip=hop hook. Just putting it out there.
  11:18am
fanasonic:

One killer track after another. You would be a gold mine in the Sublime Frequencies catalogue. I am glad you photographed those beat up 45's because this is how they sell them. Beat up therefore overpriced but so worth it. Thank you for sharing.
  11:19am
postmanpaul:

Sony started making in-roads in Egypt a while back... I found some kiosks selling amazing Egyptian street/trad tapes in central Cairo, some market stalls and bootleg music tapes and gamecd's in the newer stores. Umm hafi is right about the listening culture, or culture of listening.
While I was there, internet accessed music kept me in touch with the contemporary outside-Egypt music world. They were pre-me-discovering-'fmu-days :(

I like the scratches scratching!
  11:26am
Rob W:

Jason, you must revisit a few of these scratchy singles for Singles Going Steady week if we do that again at record fair time (just a month away now) - ! And gee, maybe we can recruit Volunteer Olgu to play some more Turkish / Anatolian Rock 45s as she did on Joe McG's show a few weeks ago - !
  11:27am
jason:

Rob -- yes! that was a great Surface Noise w/ Olgu. my plan is to digitize these and post 'em on the blog
  11:30am
Cecile:

oh, that's great, Jason. Looking forward to it.
  11:32am
umm hafi:

yess, these scratchy libyan bedouin jams are my fave!
  11:34am
Rob W:

Jason, I second Cecile, you're a Mensch!
  11:44am
Panda:

Scratchy. :) -- I think the wiry eastern boys, from syria to armenia and angling down to india, are the absolute cutest in the whole world with their shaggy hair and various nose shapes and pretty lips. I'm a girl and I like those cute boys and I want everyone to know about it.
  11:44am
