Favoriting Mid-Valley Mutations with Austin Rich: Playlist from December 7, 2021 Favoriting

austinrich's avatar View austinrich's profile Favoriting

A combination of collage, new experimental records and other bits and bobs, Mid-Valley Mutations is a tour through the mind of Austin Rich, who has been broadcasting in some form since 1998. Heavily influenced by Dr Demento, Don Joyce and old fashioned College Radio, Austin creates Audio Essays on a variety of subjects, and even just plays records, from time to time. Sometimes Live music and Interviews will grace the program, helping create a situation where you don't really know what you're going to hear, when you tune in. What you need to know is when you enter the Mid-Valley region, be prepared for the Musical Mutations... in whatever form they take.

Tuesday 9 - 11pm (EST) | On WFMU's Sheena's Jungle Room

This week's program is a bit of a "retrocast." But it's never been heard in this form, and never on Sheena's Jungle Room.

I remember that horridus (of devilsclub) and I had gotten used to doing these live jams on my show (at the time on KMUZ here in Salem, Oregon), and we usually brought in all our own voice samples and what not. For almost a month, these LP was floating around the radio station, and I kept threatening to horridus that I would use it for a show someday. He didn't seem to believe me, so that only made me want to use it more.

Here's the record on discogs:

It sounds even more ominous with the background.
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 9:27pm
austinrich:

We never called ourselves that, but I can see what you mean about the "ominous" sound. We just liked the idea of tuning in late at night and hearing this on the radio.
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 9:30pm
austinrich:

The KMUZ studios are in a building that would have all the AC and other non-essential services turn off at night. However, we would be coming in at 10 PM to do these shows. I remember at least one night, after performing for about two hours straight, where I almost passed out. I was overheating.

There's a lot of backstory behind horridus of devilsclub, but I'm sure they would rather just draw attention to the sounds. It was always fun to jam with them.
