Pop music, speeches, live phone calls and spontaneous monologues become ambient loopy layered threads riding the liminal spaces between waking and dreaming. [On hiatus.] (Visit homepage.)

It put someone else to sleep uncontrollably after 48 minutes, and then disoriented them back awake.

Ken!! I was able to listen earlier today! I find it to be a very potent listen, enough i think to last for more than a year into the future, though I will hear more and add to that! I am not sure how to thank you enough, but hopefully this show thanked you for itself: you might have surely been able to experience many of the natures of this collage!

Oh there was a caller right here, but I couldn't get her to agree to be on the air. She had a lot to say about this "CD"
Avatar 5/16/18 5:25pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever):

She wanted to hear the loving kindness talking better
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5/16/18 5:27pm northguineahills:

Uhhh, she was a psycho, and cheated on me a few times, and pretty much only used me a presentable bf for her mother. The silver lining is, I was so devastated that I went on to myspace, did a search for Jodorowsky and Deerhoof (I was drunk), and found my now wife. It took two months for her to respond, but a few months after that, I made friends w/ a musician who was touring NYC (Antigua Automatico Mexicano) who lived in her city (Monterrey, Mexico), and hooked me and my dj partner up w/ gigs there. The rest is history.

Hooray for what we learn from psychos

Now's when I have to turn the volume super low, which is annoying (the high school/college REM trip is too)

@Kenzo: I like early REM, but my resentment for the later stuff tends to creep earlier. That's my problem, not REM's

Document is weird for me. Nobody else in my high school had that record, so that marked me as a weirdo, but also got me some respect. New Order worked too. I guess that set me on the path to WFMU, but those early steps are embarrassing

Considering I didn't listen to REM until the 90s, and only found their early work a few years later.

I was in the hospital for a month after being born so i think i connect with that type of basic soundwave in a specific way! I am not certain what was there, but there must have been some sound-producing devices around.

Avatar Swag For Life Member 5/16/18 6:24pm fred:

I almost died before seeing Glenn Branca for the first time: as I got on a train, my sleeve got caught on something. I couldn't get in, the train left the station and I was stuck. I was thrown off on a foot wide stretch between the track and a railing, to screaming bystanders. I took the next train, got to the venue in time for Branca's wall shaking 8th symphony. Still, a close call. On Halloween, to boot
