Favoriting Discotech Underground with Kip Brown: Playlist from July 22, 2021 Favoriting

Discotech Underground's avatar View Discotech Underground's profile Favoriting

Discotech Underground is actually two...two...two shows in one!

The first half is a "Happy Hour" of sorts (because it's five o'clock somewhere, right?), spinning the kinds of sounds you might have heard at a real, authentic 1960's DISCOTECH as cool cats and swingin' chicks danced the night away in their mod threads and mini skirts to hard-driving sounds under the flashing lights! The only thing missing are the cage dancers...but we're working on it!

The second half is for when you head home after a wild night, and ease in with the heady, trippy, mind-expanding sounds of a groovy free-form UNDERGROUND rock radio station that digs deep into their library and blows your mind all over again!

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:04pm
Discotech Underground:

In commercial radio you had to backtime to hit the network for news or whatever else. When they started the feed, you had to be there or you clip the beginning or get dead air because you were too soon. It's a lost art.

Julie P-I told my girlfriend about radio...it's like riding a bike...you don't forget! I still have dreams about being on the air behind a mixing board and before I started this show I hadn't done an airshift in over thirty years. (my last radio job I was a production director, so no air shift!)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:22pm

LOL, Kip - I had those dreams too! And they would involve weird situations like an outdoor control room and commercials from the previous day's log.

Julie P-Mine are always about being on the air and nothing is working...all the carts are blank, there are no record or music on cart to play, nothing to just put on the air for a couple of minutes so I can figure out what's going on and how to fix it! Ironically that actually happened to me on the air once!!! I was doing a fill in on Sunday morning and I was not trained and had no clue what to do! Luckily it was at 6am on a Sunday so no one heard it, but I clearly still live with the trauma!!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:25pm
Discotech Underground:

WR- This is a no-filler zone! Thanks for listening! Always great to have you along!

Kip - I still remember one time we were doing local drop-ins on a national telethon, and though the local times were supposed to be slightly fluid, they started to drop to us almost ten minutes early, and we had to do a DefCon 4 scramble to round everyone (including talent) up from all over the building. Good times.

Jan Smithers was once married to James Brolin - I did not know that fact. Loved her character Bailey
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:47pm

Jay - at least they were able to manage it so they could get it released. The music rights for "Murphy Brown" are part of the reason that only the first season has been released on DVD.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:47pm

MOM-Yes, they met on the set of the TV show "Hotel" and were married for a number of years. She gave up acting when they got married and stayed at home and raised their child.

Right Julie - it took forever but they finally got WKRP out...unlike Tim Reid's follow-up show Frank's Place, which music rights stopped cold

northguineahills - some handy references for Florida bands are "Savage Lost" by Jeffrey Lemlich and "Florida's Famous & Forgotten" by Kurt Kurtis.

Buffalo Springfield, the best band named after a steamroller!

@Jay S: during Seven Second Delay, if you want to hear Andy Breckman go on a tirade, suggest, "Hotel California".

Jay S-It's generic and "safe"...inoffensive...that's why they play it.

plagiarizing....man, I can't believe I let that slip by!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:21pm
Jay S.:

"five songs per artist"

It's only through WFMU that I've learned how deep groups like The Hollies and The Kinks really are. What they've done with their restrictive playlists is such a disservice to the artists.

A fave Crosby album of mine
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:23pm
Jay S.:

I get why a public space would play an inoffensive format...but why an individual would settle for it, I don't know.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:23pm
Julie P.:

Kip - you get points back for the correction, though!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:23pm
Discotech Underground:

Crosby and Stills are my two faves from that assemblage.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:24pm
Discotech Underground:

Great way to wake up, eh, Franco!? Welcome!

I want offensive 38 hours a day.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:24pm
Discotech Underground:

Thanks, Julie! Spelling was one of my stronger subjects! I just hit "post" too fast!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:24pm
Julie P.:

Jay - there is a large element of the listening population that has a narrow focus on what they like to hear. Deep cuts need not apply.

@Scott: I have no idea how the tick got me. I was wearing jeans and boots the whole time and went to take shower, and then there was fat and happy tick sucking on my foot. Luckily, it wasn't a deer tick. A friend of mine I drove up there actutally did get Lyme Disease/
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:25pm
Jay S.:

So if they heard a different song by an artist they know and like, their heads would explode. That's pathetic.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:27pm
Discotech Underground:

Julie P-Radio is all driven by the "consultants" who do "research" on what songs the stations should play. If a song doesn't test well, it doesn't get played. That is why oldies and "classic" formats are so boring...they are programmed for people with no depth of interest like people who listen to satellite and internet stream radio do. One of the oldies stations I used to work for had a two day song separation and in some cases you would hear the same song on consecutive days!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:28pm
Jay S.:

There was that radio format that went by some regular person's name, where they claimed "We play anything we want!"...and it was the same old stuff

I likr to hear djs play what I don't like to hear. Hence, why I'm here and in WFMUland (Otherwise, I'd never learn new to me music.)

marpay:

Woof Moo has cured me of that syndrome, LOL! I heard a song from Peter Noone that WASN'T Mrs. Brown or Henery the 8th!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:29pm
Julie P.:

Kip - the flip side of that is in the 60's and 70's a popular record would get played once an hour.
Avatar 6:29pm
northguineahills:

@Jay S: at WoofMoo, dj's can play whatever the bloody eff they want.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:30pm
Discotech Underground:

Jay S-My last long car trip was in a car with Sirius XM and even the "Deep Cuts" channel was dullsville. I ended up listening to the vintage soul channel because it was the only one where I could go more than two songs without turning it off!

I only know the Scorpions of '89. (I was in Japan beforehand).
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:31pm

I have never seen this Scorpions LP.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:32pm

northguineahills-This is their very first LP from 1973.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:32pm

Me either, Julie. This is exactly what we were talking about.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:33pm
Discotech Underground:

Michael Schenker played lead on that first Scorps LP!

Saw that on Wikipedia, Kip. Then he went to UFO.
Avatar 6:34pm
northguineahills:

@Marpay: I read an article about WFMU in 1998. I then went to my office (I was still in uni), b/c they better bandwidth and listened to my first show from FL. I think it's half the reason I moved to NYC.

Lonesome Crow is a 'put it on, let it play, be amazed, repeat' kinda album

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:39pm

Asheville Jon-Yes, absolutely! Volume is essential!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:40pm
Franco Twinkie:

Per the conversation, I suspect that most people who listen to WFMU long ago abandoned hope that conventional radio would provide any type of pleasure whatsoever. I do enjoy the news however, I like to know what's on fire at any given moment.

Do you suppose Tom Scholz heard that one organ chord when Boston was writing "Foreplay/Long Time"?
