Jerry Reed	Lord Mr. Ford "Lord Mr. Ford" by "Jerry Reed"	Lord Mr. Ford	RCA	1973	Funny how the problems of 1973 are the same issues we have 50 years later. Also funny how we keep electing the same kinds of governments who happily pave through farmlands, make money for oil families & buy off the car owning public with money that was meant to go to healthcare. Oh well. At least it keeps the song current. I know this song better than many other songs in my life, my dad had it on many mixtapes & I heard it many times over the years.		0:01:31 (Pop-up)

Crass	Big A Little A "Big A Little A" by "Crass"	Best Before 1984 (Crassical Collection)	Crass Records	1980 / 1986	The B-Side to 1980's Nagasaki Nightmare, later released on the "Best Before 1984" compilation of 1986. One of my favourite songs of theirs.		0:05:24 (Pop-up)
Arcadia [-- Wrong Speed --]	Election Day (An Early Rough Mix) [-- Wrong Speed --]	The Flame / Flame Game / Election Day EP	Capitol / EMI	1985	3 members of Duran Duran in their 1985 side-venture "Arcadia", just before Duran Duran became 3 members anyway. Eventually they'd sort it out. Pitching this to a different speed helps. (A bit.) It's election day here in the province of Ontario. The warped and woozy mood is accurate.		0:11:38 (Pop-up)
Slagheap	Horsey Girl "Horsey Girl" by "Slagheap"	Slagheap	Spurge Recordings	2019	The band name was a toss-up between Slagheap and Solar Anus. Catherine, the band's bassist, claims she came up with the winning title, but Sadie, the group's guitarist and synth player, isn't sure. "There's another Slagheap," adds Lydia, the band’s other guitarist, "and their song goes: Slagheap stands for fun and friends. And I'd agree with that. Energetic post punk nonsense from four women in their pants. Melodic, naive and raucous songs from Bristol.		0:20:27 (Pop-up)
Dog	Daddy Got Pony "Daddy Got Pony" by "Dog"	Daddy Got Pony Single	Dog	2022	This is the second single we've played by London's Dog. This second single from the South East londoners, is beginning to cement their reputation as deconstructive musical raconteurs. Here are nifty arrangers whose will is bent to wang you full-steam through their absurdo mindfuck portals. Like laboratory madcaps encircled by phials upon phials of gauchely coloured fluids, Dog mix and mangle chemicals with sardonic experimentalism. We like this Dog.	*	0:22:51 (Pop-up)
Beige Banquet	Wired/Weird "Wired/Weird" by "Beige Banquet"	Beta	Just Step Sideways	2021	London Post Punk band made up mostly of one guy, his name being Tom Brierley. Formed in 2020 or ‘The Year That Shall Not Be Named’ London-based Beige Banquet play drum-machine-driven and self-produced outsider/weirdo/art punk. ‘Wired/Weird’ is the first in an ambitious collection of tracks written, tracked and produced in a dank East-London bedroom during the first part of 2020. Forced by circumstances familiar to many musicians, Tom had to switch focus from performing to recording, and these tracks were the result.		0:27:23 (Pop-up)
Spread Joy	Discomfort Is Palpable	II	Feel It Records	2022	In just 14 minutes, the Chicago band blasts through 10 delightfully unfussed tracks, thriving on simplicity, spontaneity, and some good old fashioned moxie. It is in many ways the perfect COVID record—a hedonistic escape and reminder of a time where everything wasn’t quite so dour and serious. Oddly fitting then that the record almost certainly wouldn’t have happened at all if not for the pandemic. According to both vocalist Briana Hernandez and guitarist Raidy Hodges, Spread Joy the album was their plan B when it became clear that gigs were no longer an option. Re: Short Songs..the band says "It wasn’t necessarily a rule but there’s a certain point where everyone gets it and once you get past that moment, I don’t see a point in continuing. I feel like everyone has a short attention span these days and I do too. It’s ok! And even if it’s the bad stuff, at least it will only last 60 seconds! Just hang tight!"		0:31:11 (Pop-up)
Chemtrails	Eternal Shame "Eternal Shame" by "Chemtrails"	Eternal Shame Single	PNKSLM Recordings	2022	The garage-punk and acid-corroded new-wave outfit that is Chemtrails first emerged as a 5-piece in 2016, having started life as the lo-fi bedroom recording project of romantic partners Mia Lust and Laura Orlova. Sung in her native German tongue, prayer, lamenting that the world would be better without life in it. Mother Nature responds to the prayer with love and kindness but it falls on deaf ears.	*	0:32:22 (Pop-up)

The Ex	From The Top Of My Lungs "From The Top Of My Lungs" by "The Ex"	From The Top Of My Lungs (Split 7")	Jvtandt	2015	"The Ex started playing in 1979. Using guitars, bass, drums and voice as their starting point The Ex have continued to musically explore undiscovered areas right up to the present day: collaborations with jazz musicians and an Iraqi-Kurdish band, Kamagurka, Tom Cora, Sonic Youth, Han Bennink, Jan Mulder, Shellac and Wolter Wierbos. In 2002 The Ex set up a lively musical exchange with Ethiopia." The Ex on Bandcamp		0:46:49 (Pop-up)
Gong Gong Gong 工工工	Ride Your Horse 騎你的馬	Phantom Rhythm 幽靈節奏 (幽霊リズム)	Wharf Cat Records	2019	"Guitar and bass duo Gong Gong Gong (工工工) charge out from Beijing’s underground scene with a distinct vision and uncompromising sense of purpose. The duo taps into a wavelength uniting musical cultures, drawing on inspirations ranging from Bo Diddley to Cantonese opera, West African desert blues, drone, and the structures of electronic music. Gong Gong Gong’s debut LP, Phantom Rhythm, is their mission statement: between the locomotive chug and banjo twang of Tom Ng’s guitar and Joshua Frank’s thumping bass harmonics, an aura of ghostly snare hits and timpani overtones emerges. Over Frank’s enigmatic melodies, Ng sings in Cantonese, piecing together abstract tales of absurdity and doubt, desire and lust. Formed in 2015, the band’s earliest shows were in Beijing underpass tunnels and DIY spaces. Ng and Frank are both outsiders who call the city their home: Ng, who was born in Hong Kong, defiantly sings in his native tongue, while Frank, originally from Montreal, has lived in Beijing on and off since childhood. (He is the English translator of Ng’s lyrics, adding another layer to the duo’s close collaboration). A compact, almost telepathic unit, Gong Gong Gong use their minimalistic tools and idiosyncratic playing style to challenge the notions of rock n’ roll, stripping the form down to its bare essentials: rhythm, melody, and grit." gonggonggong.bandcamp.com		0:51:07 (Pop-up)
Luge	Centrifugal Horse "Centrifugal Horse" by "Luge"	Actual Rock 'N' Roll	826321 Records DK	2018	We interviewed this Toronto band two weeks ago. It's probably a good idea to share the like to this -> Luge Video for Centrifugal Horse --- Also, be sure to see them live on Saturday June 4 in Toronto for FREE at the Dundas West Street Fest, on The Garrison Stage.

Erase Errata	The White Horse Is Bucking	At Crystal Palace	Troubleman Unlimited	2003	"Erase Errata was a band from San Francisco, California. They often named experimentalists such as Captain Beefheart, The Fall, and the Minutemen as inspirations. The group favored improvisation as a compositional tool and each of their performances were a unique manifestation of established songs."		0:57:54 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Add N To (X)	Ann's Eveready Equestrian	Avant Hard	Mute	1999	It seems we really have been the only show to play this track on WFMU, Rather than taking that as a "sign", we are doubling down & playing it twice in a matter of months, all to maintain a "horse" kind of vibe. We're going to talk over it, anyway. Also, this is an excellent time to let you know about Cameron Pretendre's excellent "Six Degrees Series", Episode 6 streaming this Sunday night 8 PM – 9:30 PM EST on Facebook: Six Degrees Series: Episode 6 - Add N to (X) to Neneh Cherry		0:59:20 (Pop-up)
Acid Klaus ft. Maria Uzor	Party Sized Away Day	Party Sized Away Day Single	Zen F.C.	2022	Adrian Flanagan is the hardest working musician in North England, without a doubt. This is his newest project, with vocals from Maria Uzor of Sink Ya Teeth. Flan's other projects include Moonlandingz, Eccentronic Research Council, International Teachers of Pop, Adult Entertainment, and of course the OG Kings Have Long Arms. He is a pal of Phil Oakey, Fat White Family, and also performed a show with the Fall back in the day. This guy never stops. Fun fact: Flan also has a Jack Russell terrier whose name is Klaus.	*	1:06:45 (Pop-up)
Decius ft. Fat White Family	Look Like A Man - Trashmouth rmx	Look Like A Man EP	Decius Trax	2022	Decius the project of Fat White Family’s Lias Saoudi, Paranoid London’s Quinn Whalley, and Trashmouth Records’ Luke and Liam May. The group has been recording tracks since 2014, Saoudi having been inspired by the depraved (yet artistically liberating) experience of a night dancing/fucking/taking substances at the Berghain nightclub in Berlin.		1:11:54 (Pop-up)
Trashmouth Records/Decius/Taman Shud	The Hex Inverted - Decius Vs. Trashmouth RMX.	Trashmouth Records 10 Years Still Not Dead	Trashmouth Records	2021	Also...this story must be told: It was Quinn’s idea to start booking some early live shows, the most pivotal of which was at 2019’s Glastonbury Festival. One of the people behind the festival’s high-concept clubbing area Block9, Gideon Berger, had been one of those early fans of ‘Come To Me Villa’, and he booked Decius for a brief live slot at the zone’s central queer club The NYC Downlow, which was modelled after New York’s legendary 80s venue Paradise Garage. It did not go quite as planned. The magic mushrooms Lias was using to calm pre-show anxiety at the time had not arrived as he’d planned, so he broke his own code to never take cocaine before a gig. “I was really nervous,” he recalls. “It was a club, everyone was super hip, it wasn’t my patch. So I just did way too much Charlie.” With Luke, Liam and Quinn playing behind him in custom-built black boxes, he strode out onto the catwalk stage in a gold suit, doing his best to impress the “disgustingly beautiful people absolutely everywhere” as he strutted, but when it came time to sing his first note, he instead vomited all over the stage and audience. Nevertheless, Lias styled it out. “You just quietly curse the day you were born until it’s over, channel that self-despising energy, and then it’s the end,” he says. “It went down really well!”		1:15:27 (Pop-up)
The Umlauts	Um Politik "Um Politik" by "The Umlauts"	Ü	Prah Recordings	2021	The genesis of The Umlauts resides in Stroud, where the group’s song writing duo Alfred Lear and Oliver Offord grew up and started writing together in the Gloucestershire town’s SVA Artspace. Treating the space as something of a refuge in which they could experiment, the pair delved deep into synthesisers and record collections alike, drawn to The Fall and other first generational post-punks like X-Ray Spex, as well as the likes of Bjork and The Knife. It's at art college in London and the addition of lyricists and vocalists Annabelle Mödlinger and Maria Vittoria Faldini that’s crystallised them as a band. Their debut EP is a tightly hewn mix of mechanical synth-pop, spiky no wave and bristling post-punk, with Mödlinger and Faldini’s multilingual lyrics giving it a razor-sharp focus.		1:19:34 (Pop-up)

Sun's Signature	Underwater "Underwater" by "Sun's Signature"	Sun's Signature	Partisan Records	2022	"Sun’s Signature—the new project from Cocteau Twins’ Elizabeth Fraser and her partner Damon Reece—have shared a new song called “Underwater.” It’s the latest single from the group’s self-titled debut EP—due out physically on June 18 via Partisan. “Underwater” follows Sun’s Signature’s first single “Golden Air,” Fraser’s first proper new music in 13 years. The pair has been working on the record since Cocteau Twins broke up in 1997; the project’s current form was inspired by an invitation from ANOHNI to perform at the Meltdown Festival at the Royal Festival Hall in 2012."	*	1:33:48 (Pop-up)
Kuunatic	Desert Empress Pt. 1 "Desert Empress Pt. 1" by "Kuunatic"	Gate of Klüna	Glitterbeat Records	2021	"KUUNATIC is a thrilling Tokyo based tribal-psych trio bolstered by diverse global sonics and powerful female vocals. Drawing on the members’ different musical and cultural perspectives, their music explores ritual drumming, pulsing bass lines, atmospheric keyboard sounds and Japanese traditional instruments. Having previously released an EP (“Kuurandia” / 2017) as well as a split 7” (with Taiwanese fuzz psych garage band Crocodelia), “Gate of Klüna” is KUUNATIC’s much awaited debut album. Produced by Tim DeWit (Gang Gang Dance) the record reveals a mesmerizing soundworld that transcends genres and hemispheres and succeeds in being both boldly experimental and wildly catchy. KUUNATIC are Fumie Kikuchi on keys and vocals, Yuko Araki on drums and vocals and Shoko Yoshida on bass and vocals. ---------” Kuunatic Bandcamp		1:40:31 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Kuunatic	Desert Empress Pt. 2 "Desert Empress Pt. 2" by "Kuunatic"	Gate of Klüna	Glitterbeat Records	2021	"---------- Creating a world has many advantages. Notions of time and space can be bent, Urizen-like, to the will and reasoning of the creator. Although formed in Tokyo in 2016, a city that is very much on this planet, Kuunatic first looked to another heavenly body to shape their project. In interviews the band have cited that their name is drawn from kuu, the Finnish word for the moon; inspired in part by original Finnish guitarist, Sanni. Keyboardist Fumie helps guide the uninitiated. “Kuunatic’s musical concept is a fantasy. Our first EP’s title ‘Kuurandia’ is the name of the fantasy planet we live on. The EP was a prologue. And this [debut album] is a concept album about how the planet began, evolved and was explored. It consists of eight songs and each song has a story to tell.” Kuunatic Bandcamp		1:46:53 (Pop-up)
DEADLETTER	Line The Cows "Line The Cows" by "DEADLETTER"	Line The Cows Single	M.A.D. Records	2022	For London-based label Make A Dance’s third release they’re doing things a little different. Their first few outings – both original material and the label’s own M.A.D edits – have been more focused on the realms of house, old school electro and synth-driven disco, but now they’re taking things down the post-punk route. Says their singer: "I can remember becoming infatuated with John Cooper Clarke when I was about 15. I think his acerbic Northern delivery slotted perfectly alongside my angsty teenage brain. The same can be said for Mark E Smith. I’d put ‘Twat’ on in my room and write out the lyrics as JCC spoke them in the hope of being able to one day recite it at a dinner or a family gathering. Alas, I’m still to be presented with an opportunity to do so. Hopefully one of my nearest and dearest will have a child soon and I can ruin the christening"		1:52:18 (Pop-up)
moa moa	Information "Information" by "moa moa"	Information Single	Incredibly Bland	2022	“Information is about exploring sexuality in an age of online promiscuity,” singe James Ratcliffe explains. “After all the scandals about the NSA snooping and trading our nudes, I expected the culture to change around nudes, but it didn’t. Dick pics from strangers are like pocket change on Grindr, and I get it… I feel unperturbed knowing that random NSA employees may be trading genitals like baseball cards, and when I’m talking to a pretty girl or boy about private things, I just accept it’s not private - even though I wish it was.”		1:55:50 (Pop-up)

Brian Destiny	Feed The Horse "Feed The Horse" by "Brian Destiny"	Brian's Got Talent	Dash The Henge	2022	Brian Destiny is a seeker. Brian Destiny is truth. Brian Destiny has nothing left to sacrifice.Songs about duality and self-discovery seem to be a common theme with Destiny. On “Feed the Horse,” distorted, churning rhythms back the tale of a sobering revelation: “I never knew/I never could guess/the shadow of life/is the shadow of death.” The voyage culminates in an outsider intellectual’s increasing discontent with the general population’s blind conformity to societal expectations. “Everyone’s driving/Some people are flying/Where’s my horse?” Destiny sings, segueing into the unforgettable line, “Where’s my motherfucking giddy-up?” It’s a serious, heavy, song, but not so much so as to deny us a laugh. Brian Destiny is Nathan Saoudi, brother of Lias Saoudi of Decius, who we played earlier. And that kids, is how we tie everything up with a tidy, neat bow.		2:04:05 (Pop-up)

	8:29pm ultradamno: On last week's Hearty White playlist we talked about True Grit, specifically a passage where Mattie forgives horses for their part in her father's death (but still finds wickedness in cats) and how it foreshadowed Rooster riding her pony to death to save her life www.wfmu.org...

	8:56pm Alli B: Why don’t I see Shelliiii
	8:57pm Tyler: Centrifugal Horse is a great song title!
	8:57pm DJ Babs: @WR we could not miss posting that set, it was so much fun and actually really neat to do a re-record...i think we recaptured some magic and you may appreciate the differences. the best part was when I was super tired and said that Alan Wilder had died instead of Andy Fletcher and then proceeded to call him Alan Fletcher LOLZ
	8:57pm DJ Babs: *was not even drunk at the time
	🏝 8:58pm Scott67: You two first introduced me to Luge. Now I fucken love em!! 🍻😎🤙❤️❤️

	9:02pm datafreq: I’ll have to check Luge out !
	9:03pm Tyler: Hi datafreq Dave - Britt Blush - Cameron Pretendron!

	9:04pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Hey Tyler- What’s shaking’?
	9:04pm datafreq: Hey Tyler !
	9:04pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Hey datafreq.

	9:09pm Tyler: This song reminds me of going to NASA on Queen West
	9:09pm DJ Babs: oh man NASA is where I learned how to beatmatch LOL
	9:10pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: @tyler I enjoyed NASA.
	9:10pm Tyler: I probably heard you back in the day. NASA got pretty wild at times, too... :)
	9:11pm Tyler: I just loved that it looked like Space: 1999 & Star Trek inside :) And played music different from most of the clubs on the QW crawl...
	9:11pm DJ Babs: the seats were airplane seats remember!!!
	9:12pm Derek Westerholm: I wonder how many of us were at that Add N to (X) show? Tyler, Babs, Myself...
	9:12pm Tyler: I don't remember many a lost night in their basement :)
	9:12pm Derek Westerholm: Scott, I love that you love Luge! Hurrah!
	9:12pm DJ Babs: I was definitely there!!!
	9:13pm Tyler: @Derek Barbi was there, as well, and a few other of my friends I don't think you would know. It was definitely a rite of passage being at that show...
	9:15pm Tyler: Really liking this song!
	9:15pm DJ Babs: Decius is the singer from Fat White Family.....
	9:15pm DJ Babs: I love this tune!
	9:16pm Tyler: Dancefloor Mass!
	9:16pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Wow…just wow! Love this.
	9:16pm DJ Babs: Re: Decius the singer from Fat Whites went to Berghain and had a life changing experience and fell in love with techno Basically.
	🏝 9:17pm Kristine: Hello!
	9:17pm DJ Babs: @YPB I figured this would be up your alley!!!!
	9:17pm laurapanic: that tale is terrific
	9:17pm DJ Babs: Kristiiiiiiiine!!!!!!!!!!
	9:17pm Alli B: Never heard this song before and I’m living for it!
	9:17pm Tyler: @Babs he saw the LED light? :)
	9:18pm DJ Babs: @Alli THAT IS WHAT WE DO!!!
	9:18pm DJ Babs: lol Tyler..and probably the group sex and drugs helped.
	🏝 9:19pm Kristine: the singer sounds like the singer of Frustrations
	9:19pm Alli B: That is exactly it! I always come away with new music to deep dive into!
	9:19pm datafreq: My first Datafreq live PA was as at NASA ! Just looked it up > May 5th 2004 I started datafreq in 2002, but first show was at NASA 🙂
	9:19pm Tyler: At least his musical conversion seems to be quality and he didn't turn out to be one of those EDM festival douche-bags.
	🏝 9:19pm Kristine: this is really great
	9:20pm Tyler: @ datafreq NASA is the NEXUS of the TECHNOVERSE! :)
	9:21pm DJ Babs: I am very much in love with the Umlauts. Both musically and linguistically
	9:22pm Tyler: DAMN! I want to dance to this!
	9:22pm ultradamno: I bemoan the lack of tilde bands...everyone loves their flashy umlauts...
	9:23pm Tyler: The Queen of Ur and the King of Um :)
	9:24pm ultradamno: I mean, sure, you have the occasion Ximena Sariñana, where it's in a person's name, but no metal bands...
	9:24pm Derek Westerholm: Hi Kristine!!!
	9:26pm Tyler: I've had one eye on the election results but didn't want to bum everyone out. Another FORD years is going to be dreary, but fear, uncertainty & voter apathy has won out. Didn't help that neither of the other 2 major parties nominated a solid candidate :(
	9:29pm Tyler: I connected with some really interesting artists and some of my heroes/heroines on myspace. Too bad it got sold and wrecked.
	🏝 9:29pm Scott67: I have a Jack Russell called Gus!🐶
	9:31pm datafreq: Yeah at least we found out early like ripping that bandaid off and it’s not as if it wasn’t expected sigh But we’re here to find solace and joy in the music ! 🙂
	9:31pm Tyler: @Scott67 - NICE! They can be a handful! Anyone know who Jack Russell is?
	9:32pm DJ Babs: no I figured he was a breeder of little yappy dogs!
	9:32pm datafreq: How does one pronounce MISZCZYK ?
	9:32pm DJ Babs: I know who Nipsey Russell is!
	9:32pm DJ Babs: MIZZZ CHICK
	9:32pm Tyler: @datafreq 'Mischief' :)
	9:32pm DJ Babs: more like Misss Chick
	9:33pm Tyler: MISCZYK was on last week's broadcast. A fellow CZ-er...
	9:33pm ironybread: niiiice
	9:35pm Tyler: CZ is like the Eastern-European umlat :)
	9:35pm Derek Westerholm: Hello IronyB!
	9:36pm Derek Westerholm: Official now, PCs won the province again. Ugh.
	9:37pm Tyler: This is beautiful!
	9:37pm Derek Westerholm: Well, I guess if you like a low minimum wage, lots of concrete & money to contractors, cuts to healthcare & teachers & privatisation, then you've got it. Ugh.
	9:37pm Derek Westerholm: Yeah, this song is fantastic
	9:38pm DJ Babs: I cannot fucking believe this. Thank god for music it is the last bastion of hope that there is goodness in humanity.
	9:38pm Derek Westerholm: Better to play fantastic music in dark times, I guess, haha.
	9:40pm laurapanic: wow this is amazing
	9:40pm Tyler: @derek And bleeding the urban centers dry to feed your political strongholds. DF has wreaked his revenge on Toronto. We didn't want him as mayor but he got the upperhand and is now actively dismantling this city's infrastructure (and probably the province's). Sorry, I shut up about it now and let everyone enjoy the music...
	🏝 9:41pm Scott67: That's fucked guys! We go one way here Federally, & you guys go the other. Sorry to hear. 🍁❤️❤️
	🏝 9:41pm Kristine: wow, i am enchanted by this track.....
	9:42pm DJ Babs: It is amazing. Derek with the win for awesome picks!!!
	9:42pm Tyler: I like the Celtic vibe on this song. Nice pick, Derek!
	9:44pm Derek Westerholm: Thanks, yeah, found a few wild things just prior to the show, new to me, too!!!
	🏝 9:44pm Kristine: yeah i think when i go to europe in august i will just forget to come back, beyond exasperated, dont know how i will get through the next times as a social worker. but music like this is a salve
	🏝 9:45pm Scott67: Tyler, my Gus has a healthy X with a Kelpie I reckon mate. He is larger than normal, pointed ears & smart & switched on. I just say or gesture stuff & he instantly responds, no food rewards ever. He does it out of pure mateship.
	9:46pm Derek Westerholm: Oh Kristine, it would be sad not to have you around. Then again, if you found happiness in Europe, that would make me happy, too!
	🏝 9:46pm Kristine: well, its just jokes really, but damn!
	9:47pm Tyler: @Scott67 sounds like you lucked out with temperment & intelligence with Gus. I had some friends with JRs and they were always getting into creative trouble :)
	9:47pm DJ Babs: i never want to leave Echo Beach....
	9:48pm Tyler: Let's make Echo Beach its own sovereign district :)
	🏝 9:50pm Kristine: yes agreed Tyler
	9:52pm Derek Westerholm: Haha!
	9:53pm DJ Babs: YES!!!
	9:53pm laurapanic: I was reading the other day , Scott, how some dogs need food rewards, but some prefer just being told they are good/patted etc. My dog is that guy. He likes food rewards, but also just as good to be told he is a good boy. Foxy, smart little guy.
	9:56pm Derek Westerholm: We have a siamese cat (as most of you likely know) who essentially is a dog. He gets very rare food rewards and is told he is a good boy often. He follows us around and chats at us all day long. I pretend he's annoyance but he actually makes my heart swell greatly...
	9:56pm laurapanic: music and pets thank you goodnight its all we need
	9:58pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Such a fantastic show again. Thank you.
	9:58pm DJ Babs: it is true the siamese cats are like the dogs of the cat world...and yes. Music and pets is all we need. And good friends! and you are all wonderful friends! And we are grateful. ❤️
	9:58pm Tyler: And.... LASER SHOTS!
	10:02pm ultradamno: Basketball cards thelostcollector.blogspot.com...
	10:02pm Tyler: MEEPMOOP FOR PREMIER!
	10:02pm Alli B: Thank you ❤️
	10:03pm Tyler: Thanks Dereks, Babs and you good people. We'll get through this together, as always. Take care of yourselves and one another!
	10:04pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Thank you.
	10:05pm Derek Westerholm: Thank you all! May excellent sounds live with you always!
	10:06pm DJ Babs: Thank you wonderful friends!! Big hugs all around!
	10:08pm laurapanic: Brian's Got Talent. Hilarious
	🏝 10:15pm Scott67: Thanks Babs & Derek! I got a visitor just before you ended. Fanfuckentastic Sow!🍁❤️❤️

Jerry Reed	Lord Mr. Ford "Lord Mr. Ford" by "Jerry Reed"	Lord Mr. Ford	RCA	1973	Funny how the problems of 1973 are the same issues we have 50 years later. Also funny how we keep electing the same kinds of governments who happily pave through farmlands, make money for oil families & buy off the car owning public with money that was meant to go to healthcare. Oh well. At least it keeps the song current. I know this song better than many other songs in my life, my dad had it on many mixtapes & I heard it many times over the years.		0:01:31 (Pop-up)

Crass	Big A Little A "Big A Little A" by "Crass"	Best Before 1984 (Crassical Collection)	Crass Records	1980 / 1986	The B-Side to 1980's Nagasaki Nightmare, later released on the "Best Before 1984" compilation of 1986. One of my favourite songs of theirs.		0:05:24 (Pop-up)
Arcadia [-- Wrong Speed --]	Election Day (An Early Rough Mix) [-- Wrong Speed --]	The Flame / Flame Game / Election Day EP	Capitol / EMI	1985	3 members of Duran Duran in their 1985 side-venture "Arcadia", just before Duran Duran became 3 members anyway. Eventually they'd sort it out. Pitching this to a different speed helps. (A bit.) It's election day here in the province of Ontario. The warped and woozy mood is accurate.		0:11:38 (Pop-up)
Slagheap	Horsey Girl "Horsey Girl" by "Slagheap"	Slagheap	Spurge Recordings	2019	The band name was a toss-up between Slagheap and Solar Anus. Catherine, the band's bassist, claims she came up with the winning title, but Sadie, the group's guitarist and synth player, isn't sure. "There's another Slagheap," adds Lydia, the band’s other guitarist, "and their song goes: Slagheap stands for fun and friends. And I'd agree with that. Energetic post punk nonsense from four women in their pants. Melodic, naive and raucous songs from Bristol.		0:20:27 (Pop-up)
Dog	Daddy Got Pony "Daddy Got Pony" by "Dog"	Daddy Got Pony Single	Dog	2022	This is the second single we've played by London's Dog. This second single from the South East londoners, is beginning to cement their reputation as deconstructive musical raconteurs. Here are nifty arrangers whose will is bent to wang you full-steam through their absurdo mindfuck portals. Like laboratory madcaps encircled by phials upon phials of gauchely coloured fluids, Dog mix and mangle chemicals with sardonic experimentalism. We like this Dog.	*	0:22:51 (Pop-up)
Beige Banquet	Wired/Weird "Wired/Weird" by "Beige Banquet"	Beta	Just Step Sideways	2021	London Post Punk band made up mostly of one guy, his name being Tom Brierley. Formed in 2020 or ‘The Year That Shall Not Be Named’ London-based Beige Banquet play drum-machine-driven and self-produced outsider/weirdo/art punk. ‘Wired/Weird’ is the first in an ambitious collection of tracks written, tracked and produced in a dank East-London bedroom during the first part of 2020. Forced by circumstances familiar to many musicians, Tom had to switch focus from performing to recording, and these tracks were the result.		0:27:23 (Pop-up)
Spread Joy	Discomfort Is Palpable	II	Feel It Records	2022	In just 14 minutes, the Chicago band blasts through 10 delightfully unfussed tracks, thriving on simplicity, spontaneity, and some good old fashioned moxie. It is in many ways the perfect COVID record—a hedonistic escape and reminder of a time where everything wasn’t quite so dour and serious. Oddly fitting then that the record almost certainly wouldn’t have happened at all if not for the pandemic. According to both vocalist Briana Hernandez and guitarist Raidy Hodges, Spread Joy the album was their plan B when it became clear that gigs were no longer an option. Re: Short Songs..the band says "It wasn’t necessarily a rule but there’s a certain point where everyone gets it and once you get past that moment, I don’t see a point in continuing. I feel like everyone has a short attention span these days and I do too. It’s ok! And even if it’s the bad stuff, at least it will only last 60 seconds! Just hang tight!"		0:31:11 (Pop-up)
Chemtrails	Eternal Shame "Eternal Shame" by "Chemtrails"	Eternal Shame Single	PNKSLM Recordings	2022	The garage-punk and acid-corroded new-wave outfit that is Chemtrails first emerged as a 5-piece in 2016, having started life as the lo-fi bedroom recording project of romantic partners Mia Lust and Laura Orlova. Sung in her native German tongue, prayer, lamenting that the world would be better without life in it. Mother Nature responds to the prayer with love and kindness but it falls on deaf ears.	*	0:32:22 (Pop-up)

Using guitars, bass, drums and voice as their starting point The Ex have continued to musically explore undiscovered areas right up to the present day: collaborations with jazz musicians and an Iraqi-Kurdish band, Kamagurka, Tom Cora, Sonic Youth, Han Bennink, Jan Mulder, Shellac and Wolter Wierbos. In 2002 The Ex set up a lively musical exchange with Ethiopia." The Ex on Bandcamp		0:46:49 (Pop-up)
Gong Gong Gong 工工工	Ride Your Horse 騎你的馬	Phantom Rhythm 幽靈節奏 (幽霊リズム)	Wharf Cat Records	2019	"Guitar and bass duo Gong Gong Gong (工工工) charge out from Beijing’s underground scene with a distinct vision and uncompromising sense of purpose. The duo taps into a wavelength uniting musical cultures, drawing on inspirations ranging from Bo Diddley to Cantonese opera, West African desert blues, drone, and the structures of electronic music. Gong Gong Gong’s debut LP, Phantom Rhythm, is their mission statement: between the locomotive chug and banjo twang of Tom Ng’s guitar and Joshua Frank’s thumping bass harmonics, an aura of ghostly snare hits and timpani overtones emerges. Over Frank’s enigmatic melodies, Ng sings in Cantonese, piecing together abstract tales of absurdity and doubt, desire and lust. Formed in 2015, the band’s earliest shows were in Beijing underpass tunnels and DIY spaces. Ng and Frank are both outsiders who call the city their home: Ng, who was born in Hong Kong, defiantly sings in his native tongue, while Frank, originally from Montreal, has lived in Beijing on and off since childhood. (He is the English translator of Ng’s lyrics, adding another layer to the duo’s close collaboration). A compact, almost telepathic unit, Gong Gong Gong use their minimalistic tools and idiosyncratic playing style to challenge the notions of rock n’ roll, stripping the form down to its bare essentials: rhythm, melody, and grit." gonggonggong.bandcamp.com		0:51:07 (Pop-up)

Erase Errata	The White Horse Is Bucking	At Crystal Palace	Troubleman Unlimited	2003	"Erase Errata was a band from San Francisco, California. They often named experimentalists such as Captain Beefheart, The Fall, and the Minutemen as inspirations. The group favored improvisation as a compositional tool and each of their performances were a unique manifestation of established songs."		0:57:54 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Add N To (X)	Ann's Eveready Equestrian	Avant Hard	Mute	1999	It seems we really have been the only show to play this track on WFMU, Rather than taking that as a "sign", we are doubling down & playing it twice in a matter of months, all to maintain a "horse" kind of vibe. We're going to talk over it, anyway. Also, this is an excellent time to let you know about Cameron Pretendre's excellent "Six Degrees Series", Episode 6 streaming this Sunday night 8 PM – 9:30 PM EST on Facebook: Six Degrees Series: Episode 6 - Add N to (X) to Neneh Cherry		0:59:20 (Pop-up)
Acid Klaus ft. Maria Uzor	Party Sized Away Day	Party Sized Away Day Single	Zen F.C.	2022	Adrian Flanagan is the hardest working musician in North England, without a doubt. This is his newest project, with vocals from Maria Uzor of Sink Ya Teeth. Flan's other projects include Moonlandingz, Eccentronic Research Council, International Teachers of Pop, Adult Entertainment, and of course the OG Kings Have Long Arms. He is a pal of Phil Oakey, Fat White Family, and also performed a show with the Fall back in the day. This guy never stops. Fun fact: Flan also has a Jack Russell terrier whose name is Klaus.	*	1:06:45 (Pop-up)
Decius ft. Fat White Family	Look Like A Man - Trashmouth rmx	Look Like A Man EP	Decius Trax	2022	Decius the project of Fat White Family’s Lias Saoudi, Paranoid London’s Quinn Whalley, and Trashmouth Records’ Luke and Liam May. The group has been recording tracks since 2014, Saoudi having been inspired by the depraved (yet artistically liberating) experience of a night dancing/fucking/taking substances at the Berghain nightclub in Berlin.		1:11:54 (Pop-up)
Trashmouth Records/Decius/Taman Shud	The Hex Inverted - Decius Vs. Trashmouth RMX.	Trashmouth Records 10 Years Still Not Dead	Trashmouth Records	2021	Also...this story must be told: It was Quinn’s idea to start booking some early live shows, the most pivotal of which was at 2019’s Glastonbury Festival. One of the people behind the festival’s high-concept clubbing area Block9, Gideon Berger, had been one of those early fans of ‘Come To Me Villa’, and he booked Decius for a brief live slot at the zone’s central queer club The NYC Downlow, which was modelled after New York’s legendary 80s venue Paradise Garage. It did not go quite as planned. The magic mushrooms Lias was using to calm pre-show anxiety at the time had not arrived as he’d planned, so he broke his own code to never take cocaine before a gig. “I was really nervous,” he recalls. “It was a club, everyone was super hip, it wasn’t my patch. So I just did way too much Charlie.” With Luke, Liam and Quinn playing behind him in custom-built black boxes, he strode out onto the catwalk stage in a gold suit, doing his best to impress the “disgustingly beautiful people absolutely everywhere” as he strutted, but when it came time to sing his first note, he instead vomited all over the stage and audience. Nevertheless, Lias styled it out. “You just quietly curse the day you were born until it’s over, channel that self-despising energy, and then it’s the end,” he says. “It went down really well!”		1:15:27 (Pop-up)
The Umlauts	Um Politik "Um Politik" by "The Umlauts"	Ü	Prah Recordings	2021	The genesis of The Umlauts resides in Stroud, where the group’s song writing duo Alfred Lear and Oliver Offord grew up and started writing together in the Gloucestershire town’s SVA Artspace. Treating the space as something of a refuge in which they could experiment, the pair delved deep into synthesisers and record collections alike, drawn to The Fall and other first generational post-punks like X-Ray Spex, as well as the likes of Bjork and The Knife. It's at art college in London and the addition of lyricists and vocalists Annabelle Mödlinger and Maria Vittoria Faldini that’s crystallised them as a band. Their debut EP is a tightly hewn mix of mechanical synth-pop, spiky no wave and bristling post-punk, with Mödlinger and Faldini’s multilingual lyrics giving it a razor-sharp focus.		1:19:34 (Pop-up)

Sun's Signature	Underwater "Underwater" by "Sun's Signature"	Sun's Signature	Partisan Records	2022	"Sun’s Signature—the new project from Cocteau Twins’ Elizabeth Fraser and her partner Damon Reece—have shared a new song called “Underwater.” It’s the latest single from the group’s self-titled debut EP—due out physically on June 18 via Partisan. “Underwater” follows Sun’s Signature’s first single “Golden Air,” Fraser’s first proper new music in 13 years. The pair has been working on the record since Cocteau Twins broke up in 1997; the project’s current form was inspired by an invitation from ANOHNI to perform at the Meltdown Festival at the Royal Festival Hall in 2012."	*	1:33:48 (Pop-up)
Kuunatic	Desert Empress Pt. 1 "Desert Empress Pt. 1" by "Kuunatic"	Gate of Klüna	Glitterbeat Records	2021	"KUUNATIC is a thrilling Tokyo based tribal-psych trio bolstered by diverse global sonics and powerful female vocals. Drawing on the members’ different musical and cultural perspectives, their music explores ritual drumming, pulsing bass lines, atmospheric keyboard sounds and Japanese traditional instruments. Having previously released an EP (“Kuurandia” / 2017) as well as a split 7” (with Taiwanese fuzz psych garage band Crocodelia), “Gate of Klüna” is KUUNATIC’s much awaited debut album. Produced by Tim DeWit (Gang Gang Dance) the record reveals a mesmerizing soundworld that transcends genres and hemispheres and succeeds in being both boldly experimental and wildly catchy. KUUNATIC are Fumie Kikuchi on keys and vocals, Yuko Araki on drums and vocals and Shoko Yoshida on bass and vocals. ---------” Kuunatic Bandcamp		1:40:31 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Kuunatic	Desert Empress Pt. 2 "Desert Empress Pt. 2" by "Kuunatic"	Gate of Klüna	Glitterbeat Records	2021	"---------- Creating a world has many advantages. Notions of time and space can be bent, Urizen-like, to the will and reasoning of the creator. Although formed in Tokyo in 2016, a city that is very much on this planet, Kuunatic first looked to another heavenly body to shape their project. In interviews the band have cited that their name is drawn from kuu, the Finnish word for the moon; inspired in part by original Finnish guitarist, Sanni. Keyboardist Fumie helps guide the uninitiated. “Kuunatic’s musical concept is a fantasy. Our first EP’s title ‘Kuurandia’ is the name of the fantasy planet we live on. The EP was a prologue. And this [debut album] is a concept album about how the planet began, evolved and was explored. It consists of eight songs and each song has a story to tell.” Kuunatic Bandcamp		1:46:53 (Pop-up)
DEADLETTER	Line The Cows "Line The Cows" by "DEADLETTER"	Line The Cows Single	M.A.D. Records	2022	For London-based label Make A Dance’s third release they’re doing things a little different. Their first few outings – both original material and the label’s own M.A.D edits – have been more focused on the realms of house, old school electro and synth-driven disco, but now they’re taking things down the post-punk route. Says their singer: "I can remember becoming infatuated with John Cooper Clarke when I was about 15. I think his acerbic Northern delivery slotted perfectly alongside my angsty teenage brain. The same can be said for Mark E Smith. I’d put ‘Twat’ on in my room and write out the lyrics as JCC spoke them in the hope of being able to one day recite it at a dinner or a family gathering. Alas, I’m still to be presented with an opportunity to do so. Hopefully one of my nearest and dearest will have a child soon and I can ruin the christening"		1:52:18 (Pop-up)
moa moa	Information "Information" by "moa moa"	Information Single	Incredibly Bland	2022	“Information is about exploring sexuality in an age of online promiscuity,” singe James Ratcliffe explains. “After all the scandals about the NSA snooping and trading our nudes, I expected the culture to change around nudes, but it didn’t. Dick pics from strangers are like pocket change on Grindr, and I get it… I feel unperturbed knowing that random NSA employees may be trading genitals like baseball cards, and when I’m talking to a pretty girl or boy about private things, I just accept it’s not private - even though I wish it was.”		1:55:50 (Pop-up)
Sounds Of The Ocean	Beach Sounds "Beach Sounds" by "Sounds Of The Ocean"	Ocean Sounds	Sounds Of The Ocean	2016			1:59:50 (Pop-up)
Brian Destiny	Feed The Horse "Feed The Horse" by "Brian Destiny"	Brian's Got Talent	Dash The Henge	2022	Brian Destiny is a seeker. Brian Destiny is truth. Brian Destiny has nothing left to sacrifice.Songs about duality and self-discovery seem to be a common theme with Destiny. On “Feed the Horse,” distorted, churning rhythms back the tale of a sobering revelation: “I never knew/I never could guess/the shadow of life/is the shadow of death.” The voyage culminates in an outsider intellectual’s increasing discontent with the general population’s blind conformity to societal expectations. “Everyone’s driving/Some people are flying/Where’s my horse?” Destiny sings, segueing into the unforgettable line, “Where’s my motherfucking giddy-up?” It’s a serious, heavy, song, but not so much so as to deny us a laugh. Brian Destiny is Nathan Saoudi, brother of Lias Saoudi of Decius, who we played earlier. And that kids, is how we tie everything up with a tidy, neat bow.		2:04:05 (Pop-up)

	8:21pm laurapanic: I'm down for clip clop and weird feelings
	8:21pm laurapanic: I was a horse girl
	8:22pm DJ Babs: Ontario does NOT like him. Rural people, racists and boomers love him. So do antivaxxers. Unfortunately we have low voter turnout in key areas soooooooo...

	8:25pm DJ Babs: who would turn down a pony!? One of my coworkers has ponies and she just bought a miniature horse. I WANT TO PET SO BAD
	8:26pm laurapanic: hey Scott yeh....our Magic Dirt support was postponed last week after Adalita got the rona. We have spent the last couple of years getting some good supports....well deserved after 22yrs flogging this town. We are playing to people who say us in high school at hardcore shows when we used to play much much faster....hahahaaaa....NEWCASTLE INSTITUTION WE ARE
	8:26pm ultradamno: (I do not endorse dancing on a pony keg, it looks precarious)
	8:26pm DJ Babs: did you know that baby miniature horses ARE THE SIZE OF A DOG!?
	8:29pm ultradamno: On last week's Hearty White playlist we talked about True Grit, specifically a passage where Mattie forgives horses for their part in her father's death (but still finds wickedness in cats) and how it foreshadowed Rooster riding her pony to death to save her life www.wfmu.org...
	8:29pm DJ Babs: @ultradamno I do not know what horse related songs Derek has picked out!
	8:30pm DJ Babs: ooo thank you for sharing that! Also how can you find wickedness in cats (tho actually they are kinda wicked)
	🏝 8:31pm Scott67: Yeah I saw that Laura! Sucks shit don't it. TRASH CULT was shut last weekend with a Rona round the weekend's gigs. I dodged it somehow, despite being there every opening hour?? They have Gravel Samwidge playing tonight, with new local's Alarms (ex Pile of Sticks). Covid willing?? 🤞😎🤙
	8:31pm ultradamno: Foetus' Hot Horse...I can't recall if it's a stolen horse or just has a fever
	8:32pm ultradamno: "Who has not seen Satan in their sly faces?"
	8:33pm ultradamno: I don't think my cat is trying to corrupt me, but she is threatening
	🏝 8:33pm Scott67: She got my anxiety trying to surface then.
	8:33pm laurapanic: good luck then Scott.....we are all getting used to gig covid flexibility
	🏝 8:33pm Scott67: Crying gets me every time. Even fake crying!
	8:34pm DJ Babs: I love the crying! I do it daily!!!
	8:37pm datafreq: Hey All Since the election results will most likely be decided by the end of the show, do you have alternate ending tracks ? 😆
	🏝 8:38pm Scott67: Prozac means I can't cry properly now. Just feel it hard, but without the cleansing release.💊
	8:39pm shellioh: salut mes amies!!!
	8:39pm laurapanic: oh my god! you poor things, it was an amazing show
	8:40pm laurapanic: I'm autistic and have few emotion shades
	8:40pm ultradamno: The Harmonicats' Sabre Dance is insane.
	8:44pm ultradamno: I suspect this cat of being evil twitter.com...
	🏝 8:45pm Scott67: Laura, I'm beginning to feel the same mate. After working as a Support Worker for 15 years. & feedback from some of my friends & partners. I see likenesses to certain behaviors. 😎🤙❤️
	8:45pm DJ Babs: Hello Datafreq!!!!
	8:45pm DJ Babs: We are committed to the end of the show only because it was absolute serendipitous PERFECTION
	8:46pm ultradamno: Their two albums with Cora are particular favorites of mine
	8:47pm DJ Babs: I'm not holding out much hope here...I think it is a given that Ford has won so I'm going with the theme of DREAD
	8:49pm datafreq: Your selections have been chef’s kiss as always !
	8:49pm DJ Babs: ohhh Scott I was a support worker for many many years. It's a very tough job. It's how I put myself through school, my family was a foster family as well to both developmentally delayed kids and those with severe psychiatric diagnoses...
	8:50pm DJ Babs: Thank you Datafreq! As yours always are as well! I'm going to head into bleepy bloopy territory during my next set and I think there's a few tunes you will like!
	8:52pm laurapanic: Scott yeh so many adults having a hard think about this stuff....I got amongst it after working with my ASD kids for a few years and then went "heyyyyyyyyyyyyyy" and now my whole life, from kid to now, makes sense.
	8:54pm DJ Babs: Honestly I was like, 40 when I realized "hey! I have PTSD!" So I hear ya.
	8:54pm Tyler: Hallo, Beachers!
	8:54pm Derek Westerholm: Ultradamno, absolutely, the Cora albums are fantastic, as is "Turn" and the ones w/ Getatchew Mekurya
	🏝 8:54pm WR: Hello folks.

	8:56pm DJ Babs: honestly guys, PLEASE do yourselves a favour and go watch the video for this tune it is AMAZING!
	8:56pm Alli B: Why don’t I see Shelliiii
	8:57pm Tyler: Centrifugal Horse is a great song title!
	8:57pm DJ Babs: @WR we could not miss posting that set, it was so much fun and actually really neat to do a re-record...i think we recaptured some magic and you may appreciate the differences. the best part was when I was super tired and said that Alan Wilder had died instead of Andy Fletcher and then proceeded to call him Alan Fletcher LOLZ
	8:57pm DJ Babs: *was not even drunk at the time
	🏝 8:58pm Scott67: You two first introduced me to Luge. Now I fucken love em!! 🍻😎🤙❤️❤️
	8:59pm DJ Babs: Luge are so sweet! And we ran into them at the pub last week!! Datafreq they were at your night!!

	🏝 9:01pm Scott67: My 'formal' Diagnosis is; PTSD, OCD Anxiety & Depression; Possible Bi Polar/Autism. 🍻😎🤙
	9:01pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Thank you…thank you. Blush.
	9:02pm Tyler: ADD N To (X) were incredible live. It was a pretty wild night! I still have my 'Plug Me In' t-shirt from the concert which has an image of people dressed like robots having sex :)
	9:02pm datafreq: I’ll have to check Luge out !
	9:03pm Tyler: Hi datafreq Dave - Britt Blush - Cameron Pretendron!
	9:04pm Tyler: I think Ann's Ever-Ready Equestrian is likely a sex-toy reference :)
	9:04pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Hey Tyler- What’s shaking’?
	9:04pm datafreq: Hey Tyler !
	9:04pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Hey datafreq.
	9:05pm Tyler: @Blush - you still Portugalling?
	9:06pm Alli B: She’s still there!
	9:07pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Such a great track.
	9:07pm datafreq: Hey Cameron
	9:09pm Tyler: This song reminds me of going to NASA on Queen West
	9:09pm DJ Babs: oh man NASA is where I learned how to beatmatch LOL
	9:10pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: @tyler I enjoyed NASA.
	9:10pm Tyler: I probably heard you back in the day. NASA got pretty wild at times, too... :)
	9:11pm Tyler: I just loved that it looked like Space: 1999 & Star Trek inside :) And played music different from most of the clubs on the QW crawl...
	9:11pm DJ Babs: the seats were airplane seats remember!!!
	9:12pm Derek Westerholm: I wonder how many of us were at that Add N to (X) show? Tyler, Babs, Myself...
	9:12pm Tyler: I don't remember many a lost night in their basement :)
	9:12pm Derek Westerholm: Scott, I love that you love Luge! Hurrah!
	9:12pm DJ Babs: I was definitely there!!!
	9:13pm Tyler: @Derek Barbi was there, as well, and a few other of my friends I don't think you would know. It was definitely a rite of passage being at that show...
	9:15pm Tyler: Really liking this song!
	9:15pm DJ Babs: Decius is the singer from Fat White Family.....
	9:15pm DJ Babs: I love this tune!
	9:16pm Tyler: Dancefloor Mass!
	9:16pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Wow…just wow! Love this.
	9:16pm DJ Babs: Re: Decius the singer from Fat Whites went to Berghain and had a life changing experience and fell in love with techno Basically.
	🏝 9:17pm Kristine: Hello!
	9:17pm DJ Babs: @YPB I figured this would be up your alley!!!!
	9:17pm laurapanic: that tale is terrific
	9:17pm DJ Babs: Kristiiiiiiiine!!!!!!!!!!
	9:17pm Alli B: Never heard this song before and I’m living for it!
	9:17pm Tyler: @Babs he saw the LED light? :)
	9:18pm DJ Babs: @Alli THAT IS WHAT WE DO!!!
	9:18pm DJ Babs: lol Tyler..and probably the group sex and drugs helped.
	🏝 9:19pm Kristine: the singer sounds like the singer of Frustrations
	9:19pm Alli B: That is exactly it! I always come away with new music to deep dive into!
	9:19pm datafreq: My first Datafreq live PA was as at NASA ! Just looked it up > May 5th 2004 I started datafreq in 2002, but first show was at NASA 🙂
	9:19pm Tyler: At least his musical conversion seems to be quality and he didn't turn out to be one of those EDM festival douche-bags.
	🏝 9:19pm Kristine: this is really great
	9:20pm Tyler: @ datafreq NASA is the NEXUS of the TECHNOVERSE! :)
	9:21pm DJ Babs: I am very much in love with the Umlauts. Both musically and linguistically
	9:22pm Tyler: DAMN! I want to dance to this!
	9:22pm ultradamno: I bemoan the lack of tilde bands...everyone loves their flashy umlauts...
	9:23pm Tyler: The Queen of Ur and the King of Um :)
	9:24pm ultradamno: I mean, sure, you have the occasion Ximena Sariñana, where it's in a person's name, but no metal bands...
	9:24pm Derek Westerholm: Hi Kristine!!!
	9:26pm Tyler: I've had one eye on the election results but didn't want to bum everyone out. Another FORD years is going to be dreary, but fear, uncertainty & voter apathy has won out. Didn't help that neither of the other 2 major parties nominated a solid candidate :(
	9:29pm Tyler: I connected with some really interesting artists and some of my heroes/heroines on myspace. Too bad it got sold and wrecked.
	🏝 9:29pm Scott67: I have a Jack Russell called Gus!🐶
	9:31pm datafreq: Yeah at least we found out early like ripping that bandaid off and it’s not as if it wasn’t expected sigh But we’re here to find solace and joy in the music ! 🙂
	9:31pm Tyler: @Scott67 - NICE! They can be a handful! Anyone know who Jack Russell is?
	9:32pm DJ Babs: no I figured he was a breeder of little yappy dogs!
	9:32pm datafreq: How does one pronounce MISZCZYK ?
	9:32pm DJ Babs: I know who Nipsey Russell is!
	9:32pm DJ Babs: MIZZZ CHICK
	9:32pm Tyler: @datafreq 'Mischief' :)
	9:32pm DJ Babs: more like Misss Chick
	9:33pm Tyler: MISCZYK was on last week's broadcast. A fellow CZ-er...
	9:33pm ironybread: niiiice
	9:35pm Tyler: CZ is like the Eastern-European umlat :)
	9:35pm Derek Westerholm: Hello IronyB!
	9:36pm Derek Westerholm: Official now, PCs won the province again. Ugh.
	9:37pm Tyler: This is beautiful!
	9:37pm Derek Westerholm: Well, I guess if you like a low minimum wage, lots of concrete & money to contractors, cuts to healthcare & teachers & privatisation, then you've got it. Ugh.
	9:37pm Derek Westerholm: Yeah, this song is fantastic
	9:38pm DJ Babs: I cannot fucking believe this. Thank god for music it is the last bastion of hope that there is goodness in humanity.
	9:38pm Derek Westerholm: Better to play fantastic music in dark times, I guess, haha.
	9:40pm laurapanic: wow this is amazing
	9:40pm Tyler: @derek And bleeding the urban centers dry to feed your political strongholds. DF has wreaked his revenge on Toronto. We didn't want him as mayor but he got the upperhand and is now actively dismantling this city's infrastructure (and probably the province's). Sorry, I shut up about it now and let everyone enjoy the music...
	🏝 9:41pm Scott67: That's fucked guys! We go one way here Federally, & you guys go the other. Sorry to hear. 🍁❤️❤️
	🏝 9:41pm Kristine: wow, i am enchanted by this track.....
	9:42pm DJ Babs: It is amazing. Derek with the win for awesome picks!!!
	9:42pm Tyler: I like the Celtic vibe on this song. Nice pick, Derek!
	9:44pm Derek Westerholm: Thanks, yeah, found a few wild things just prior to the show, new to me, too!!!
	🏝 9:44pm Kristine: yeah i think when i go to europe in august i will just forget to come back, beyond exasperated, dont know how i will get through the next times as a social worker. but music like this is a salve
	🏝 9:45pm Scott67: Tyler, my Gus has a healthy X with a Kelpie I reckon mate. He is larger than normal, pointed ears & smart & switched on. I just say or gesture stuff & he instantly responds, no food rewards ever. He does it out of pure mateship.
	9:46pm Derek Westerholm: Oh Kristine, it would be sad not to have you around. Then again, if you found happiness in Europe, that would make me happy, too!
	🏝 9:46pm Kristine: well, its just jokes really, but damn!
	9:47pm Tyler: @Scott67 sounds like you lucked out with temperment & intelligence with Gus. I had some friends with JRs and they were always getting into creative trouble :)
	9:47pm DJ Babs: i never want to leave Echo Beach....
	9:48pm Tyler: Let's make Echo Beach its own sovereign district :)
	🏝 9:50pm Kristine: yes agreed Tyler
	9:52pm Derek Westerholm: Haha!
	9:53pm DJ Babs: YES!!!
	9:53pm laurapanic: I was reading the other day , Scott, how some dogs need food rewards, but some prefer just being told they are good/patted etc. My dog is that guy. He likes food rewards, but also just as good to be told he is a good boy. Foxy, smart little guy.
	9:56pm Derek Westerholm: We have a siamese cat (as most of you likely know) who essentially is a dog. He gets very rare food rewards and is told he is a good boy often. He follows us around and chats at us all day long. I pretend he's annoyance but he actually makes my heart swell greatly...
	9:56pm laurapanic: music and pets thank you goodnight its all we need
	9:58pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Such a fantastic show again. Thank you.
	9:58pm DJ Babs: it is true the siamese cats are like the dogs of the cat world...and yes. Music and pets is all we need. And good friends! and you are all wonderful friends! And we are grateful. ❤️
	9:58pm Tyler: And.... LASER SHOTS!
	10:02pm ultradamno: Basketball cards thelostcollector.blogspot.com...
	10:02pm Tyler: MEEPMOOP FOR PREMIER!
	10:02pm Alli B: Thank you ❤️
	10:03pm Tyler: Thanks Dereks, Babs and you good people. We'll get through this together, as always. Take care of yourselves and one another!
	10:04pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: Thank you.
	10:05pm Derek Westerholm: Thank you all! May excellent sounds live with you always!
	10:06pm DJ Babs: Thank you wonderful friends!! Big hugs all around!
	10:08pm laurapanic: Brian's Got Talent. Hilarious
	🏝 10:15pm Scott67: Thanks Babs & Derek! I got a visitor just before you ended. Fanfuckentastic Sow!🍁❤️❤️
