Favoriting Brian Turner: Playlist from February 16, 2016 Favoriting

Order and disorder in a freeform haze of terribly-played guitars, shorted-out electronics, found audio detritus, strange sounds from strange lands all around. Psych-punk-junk, collage, even pop. Lots of in-studio live performances to boot.

One last story about Willem: Together with Conny Planck, he founded the "Kraut Musikverlag", pioneering (maybe) the Krautrock movement. See www.sr.de... (in german).
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:30pm
coelacanth:

also a consideration with respect to that dj's wishes (which was a whole different situation involving a currently active band) is that "disco duck" and anything of the sort was made solely to capitalize on the disco fad. it was a joke at the time, even to people who bought it.

Parts of this sound texturally like when Jimi burned his guitar.

That reminded me of one time a few months ago when you (I'm pretty sure it was you) were playing something like this and I thought I'd be cute and get on the comments board and say I thought my neighbor upstairs was vacuuming, and you said, no, I cut the turntable in half with a buzz saw. Touche, sir.
