Favoriting Mid-Valley Mutations with Austin Rich: Playlist from July 12, 2022 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.

I realized yesterday that I could have even squeezed out a sixth Monkey show next week, if I wanted, and still wouldn't be COMPLETELY tapped for Ape Songs, either. But five weeks seems like a good run. I can always return to the subject next summer.

I don't have all of them, but I remember that first one they put out I played the HELL out of. I think I got one or two of the others, but they never got as much play.

I should check them out, now. I'd probably dig them even more.

Gotta love Jad! I accosted him once at SxSW, and he was so lovely and put up with my questions.

Speaking of my early radio shows... it was basically a love-letter to Jad Fair and Daniel Johnston... with some weird cut up mixes occasionally.

This song is an obvious pick, but certainly harkens back to my High School years, when everyone I knew played it over and over, and I loved it so very much. Still has a little nostalgia for me, but I don't listen to this as much as I used to. I probably should. Maybe that's my problem?

Mr. Fab: you are right. I don't know why I don't listen to it more, now. Maybe that'll be my summer goal? listen to albums I've sort of put to bed...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:25pm
Will a Sound Guy:

Thanks Austin, I went to 'a' instead of 'the' because I think some people were thinking I'm with the station. I would help out with sound if I could and was asked. I just felt like some people thought I had something to do with the station, and I didn't want to mislead anyone.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:25pm
Krys O.:

Oh, yeah. Jad is super sweet. I had a radio crush on him too in my time at the mothership. He came to play live on someone's show and I nearly plotzed. Later met him and got to know him a bit more. He and my ex recorded an album together via emailed files. Then we'd meet up with Jad when he played locally. Will never forget hanging out with Jad and Lumberrob at the now defunct Maxwell's.

Monkey Gone to Heaven always helps.

I'm a bit of a nerd for the Captain, but certainly this is the album I don't know as well in his catalog. I was surprised to find this song, and probably haven't heard it since I got the album.

I think I should give it another chance. If this song is any indication, I might like it a lot, these days.

(If you use a Mac: "On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility , then click Spoken Content. Select the “Speak selection” checkbox. By default, your Mac speaks text when you press the keyboard shortcut Option-Esc.")

I went "all-in" on Mac stuff in 2004, when I started going to College, and the student store had a shockingly good deal on a Mac and iPod combo. And when I met my wife, she was all Mac too, so it made back-ups and stuff easy for both of us. So now we're just a Mac house.

There were a lot of choices for which "Monkey" song I should pick for TMBG. But I think both Heather and I independently came to the conclusion that this one made the most sense.

Never had a iPod, let alone a Mac. Used em at Arts Uni. They gave me the shits. Don't like the implied scarcity, elitism & Mac Only accessories crap. That Apple perpetuates to this day. Apart from the EU telling them to adopt a Universal Charger!

I have no memory of Grape Ape whatsoever, which surprises me. I was a lil old for cartoons at that point but I should still have heard of it!

I think Grape Ape was from 75? My parents said they liked it when they were dealing with me as a wee child, so when it was still on when I was growing up, they loved that we could all watch it together.

Nice to keep in touch with Rodney, I keep in touch with Joe. You can catch many of Joe Jack Talcum's hilarious tracks on my show. He's got a show coming up at the Hart Bar in Brooklyn on July 24th.
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 10:32pm
Austin Rich:

I love a lot of Dub Narcotic stuff, but this tape is TOTALLY the best thing they released.

Joe is the best! I've always wanted to chat with him for the show. (I did a great interview with Rodney a few years ago... he was a delight, though we sort of never got around to talking about the Milkmen. We spent more time talking about Springsteen and Yes.
