WFMU: Play Vertigo with Mayuko: Playlist from February 29, 2016

Listener comments!
	5:00pm listener james from westwood: Happy Leap Day 2016, Mayuko and all!
	5:02pm Mayuko: Happy Leap Day to you too, james! Thank you for tuning in!
	5:04pm Polyus: Hello Mayuko!
	5:04pm JtotheK: good afternoon everyone.
	5:06pm Mayuko: Here's a very interesting interview of Tsutomu Oohashi aka Shoji Yamashiro, the leader of Geinoh Yamashirogumi, written by a WFMU listener CG Watkins: www.sidianersatzvanes.com...
	5:06pm Mayuko: Hello, Polyus and JtotheK, happy to have you on board!
	5:10pm david: Listening from the laundromat today! :)
	5:13pm Mayuko: A little sightseeing info: 恐山 is a series of mountains in Northern Japan and is an entrance to hell and heaven... this is supposedly the hell... miner8.com... and there's a bloody red pond there: blogimg.goo.ne.jp... & heaven: pds.exblog.jp... Never been there myself but both heaven and hell seems to be quite beautiful places.
	5:14pm Mayuko: dramatic laundry time for david!
	5:15pm Mayuko: (all the socks and shirts suffer in the endless whirlpool... which actually probably ends in 45 min...)
	5:18pm listener james from westwood: That Hell pond is frightening!
	5:23pm Mayuko: I think I heard that it's some kind of algous thing makes it red, but I'm not sure. It really is frightening!
	5:28pm listener james from westwood: Odd, sometimes unique species can thrive in isolated environments like that, so it's entirely possible.
	5:35pm Mayuko: Yah, I think you're right. And there's volcanos and they say it smells so bad/strange all around there in the hell because of sulfur - with that and the red pond, people in the old times must have thought it REALLY was a place with supernatural beings or something like that.
	5:45pm Mayuko: Marewrew is these young Ainu ladies from Hokkaido, the big northern island of Japan: kansai.pia.co.jp...
	5:56pm Carmichael: Heya Mayuko and listeners.
	6:02pm Gaylord Fields: I'm showing a friend how to use the WFMU app, and I'm happy your show is the demonstration.
	6:12pm Rich in Washington: Ice Top rules! Never heard of them until today! Thanks for such an amazing show, Mayuko!
	6:13pm Mayuko: Hello, Carmichael! I'm honored to be the sample, Gaylord! I hope you're well!!!
	6:19pm Mayuko: Thank YOU for listening, Rich in Washington! I was feeling a bit hesitated to play Mongolian hip-hop after reading this article about them on NPR www.npr.org... Because I'm not entirely sure if I want to support the message they are trying to deliver. But For this song Am Asuuy, at least I learned a bit about its context, so thought it was safe. Mongolian hiphop does look interesting though! Mixing their traditional throat singing with it etc.
	6:26pm Mayuko: For those who can read Japanese, the super interesting article about Am Asuuy: synodos.jp... Also there's the youtube video of the song there.
	6:28pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Mayuko and Verts! It is sure an odd sensation that it isn't March 1 today.
	6:35pm Mayuko: Hello, Ken from Hyde Park! Thank you for tuning in. I wish we can have an extra day every week, or at least every month like this.
	6:47pm coelacanth: greetings Mayuko and all ...unfashionably late i am; but did catch that excellent Tom Recchion track at least
	6:51pm Mayuko: Hello, coelacanth, thank you for stopping by! You are always welcomed to walk through the wall of time and check out the archives anyway :)
	6:52pm Rich in Washington: is this Bjork singing?
	6:55pm Mayuko: Yup! It's one of the her bands. Kinda make sense that I seem to remember she said she opened up a show for Einstürzende Neubauten a long time ago (if I remember correctly...)
	6:57pm Rich in Washington: I should track down that album. I didn't realize KUKL sounded that cool.
	6:57pm listener james from westwood: Glad to hear a bit of Bjork to wrap up. Thanks, Mayuko!!
	7:00pm coelacanth: Thank you Mayuko!
	7:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: Dave Hill, you say? Awesome! Have a good week, and thank you.
	7:01pm Mayuko: Thank you all for listening! Have a great week and leap evening, everyone!
	9:41pm zmz: whmm... you played another track from ザ・民謡ベストコレクション4 岩手編 while back. I ordered the CD, haven't got the CD though, looking forward to it. But am I keep buying stuff out from show?
	10:34pm Webhamster Henry: Sorry I missed the live show, Mayuko! Inuit Songs and Games was among the first CDs I ever purchased!
	10:56pm Mayuko: I did play a track from that cd indeed! So many good tracks on that one. So happy that you're digging these folk music from Japan! There's more to come!
	10:58pm Mayuko: That's incredible, Henry, one of the very first CDs you bought?! I wonder what brought you to listen to that stuff so early. Thanks for listening!
	11:51am aliaspail: listening now!
	6:07pm Mayuko: Thanks! Hope you enjoyed it!
	3:23pm fred: What a spectacularly amazing show Mayuko! French translation time: "avec voix chuchotee" means "with whispered voice" I bookmarked what I found about Marewrew, which is not much I can understand, but I'll be lobbying for their coming to France. At first they had sounds reminding me of Mongolian long song, but the end was closer to Yakut, that's very interesting to me how Ainu people might share cultural traditions with Siberian and Mongolian people both Thanks for that amazing article and for playing Geinoh Yamashirogumi. 25 years ago, I got a portable CD player for Xmas. One week later, I got mugged and that gift was gone. I had their Akira soundtrack in there, and I asked the robbers to hand the CD back to me because it was some weird Japanese stuff they wouldn't like anyway. It made so little sense that they did, so I still have that record today. They didn't even throw it out, they took it out and gave it to me before kicking me out of the train And, of course, many many thanks for playing Byambajargal
	2:18am Mayuko: That would be wonderful if people in France get to see Marewrew's show! I'm sure someone at their office speaks English but if there's any Japanese assistance needed, I'd be more than happy to help. I was fascinated by Ainu culture when I was a teenager, and that's how I got interested in all other northern people too. It's very interesting to see (hear) these musical gradation. I'm glad you were ok and they gave you back Geinoh Yamashirogumi - that is kinda funny (although not really!)

I play music that is old and that is new. Some of it is digital while some is analog. It is from many different countries; sometimes it is loud and at other times it is quiet.
