Music behind DJ: 工工工 (aka Gong Gong Gong)	Some Kind of Demon 某一種惡魔 (Yu Su Remix)	Phantom Rhythm Remixed = 幽靈節奏	Wharf Cat Records	2021	[Feat. Yu Su (Vancouver/Kaifeng)] "In 2019, Montréal/Beijing duo Gong Gong Gong 工工工 delivered globetrotting no wave on their debut full-length album, Phantom Rhythm 幽靈節奏. They homed in on their Chinese roots with [the 2021] remix album, Phantom Rhythm Remixed, via Wharf Cat Records/bié Records. // Each of the 10 remixes finds a different electronic artist with ties to China giving beat-heavy interpretations of the original album's rickety, percussion-less rock tracks, transforming Tom Ng's guitars and vocals and Joshua Frank's bass into myriad new forms. // Paying tribute to their Chinese-Canadian origins, the first remix revealed from the album is courtesy of Kaifeng-born, Vancouver-based producer and bié Records founder Yu Su. "Some Kind of Demon 某一種惡魔 (Yu Su Midnight Express Dub)" finds Yu Su chopping up Ng's vocals before dousing them in reverb and placing them atop lightly vaporwaved synths and bass. // Said Frank in a press release, "Yu Su was the first person to send us a Phantom Rhythm remix. She worked on it after finishing a tour that went all across China — which was also when we met. The pandemic had just started to get severe outside of China, and Yu Su was stuck at home in Kaifeng, while I was stuck in my apartment in New York." // The track's accompanying video features footage of Gong Gong Gong's 2018 tour of China." gonggonggong.bandcamp.com		0:00:00 (Pop-up)
Vintage Crop	The North "The North" by "Vintage Crop"	Serve To Serve Again	Upset The Rhythm	2020	Vintage Crop are an Australian music group from Geelong. Their burly, brusque yet supple songs have evolved from the garage rock of 2017’s TV Organs album into the post-punk panic attack of last year’s Company Man EP. Now they’ve sculpted their sound further, the barrage now offset with robust songwriting, their full-pelt bounce tempered with flailing guitar lines and sardonic commentary. Bringing to mind Wire tackling tracks from early 7”s by The Yummy Fur, it’s an inspired approach, both striking and effortlessly mirthful. Vintage Crop still dish-up plenty of commanding stomp, their lyrics remain as keen-eyed as ever, but now they’re unafraid to mess with the tempo and drive their point home.		0:04:50 (Pop-up)
Bad Pelicans	PARIS "PARIS" by "Bad Pelicans"	Eternal Life Now	Geographie Recs	2023	Eternal Life Now is packed full of gems, plenty of which do what they say on the tin with no attempt to put up an illusion. Opening with Paris, the trio introduce themselves through this piece of their identity, with throbbing riffs that cause you to wade through the track instead of rush through head first. Paris is captured through the warped lens of BAD PELICANS – statuesque and seriously monochrome.		0:07:40 (Pop-up)
Hierophants	Autofocus "Autofocus" by "Hierophants"	Spitting Out Moonlight	Anti-Fade Records	2019	Hierophants are an Australian quartet who play jittery, nervous post-punk/new wave-inspired indie rock. Their simple, catchy songs feature buzzing organ and a thin layer of echo, along with lyrics expressing stress and frustration. If this project is reminiscent of Parsnip and School Damage...that's because it features members of both bands. Does everyone play with everyone in Australia?		0:10:41 (Pop-up)
DAF	Essen Dann Schlaften "Essen Dann Schlaften" by "DAF"	Die Kleinen Und Die Bösen	Mute	1980	Die Kleinen und die Bösen is the second album by Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft, released on 13 June 1980. It was the first album ever released on Mute Records. Side A and the first track of side B are studio recordings produced by Conny Plank. "it helped not merely in establishing the group's cachet, but the label's and, in turn, the whole genre of experimental electronic music in the '80s and beyond."		0:12:54 (Pop-up)
The Staches	Fake Stomach Ache "Fake Stomach Ache" by "The Staches"	This Lake Is Pointless	Bongo Joe	2019	In Geneva, God and Satan share the same restaurant table. They even have the same cocaïne dealer. But it was better before ! The city had several squats. The city had its little island of freedom in the paradise of money and lies. Within this procession of rich, arrogant, famous people, Geneva kept a certain idea of resistance. The Staches are part of it with their garage rock high in vitamin. The Staches are antiscorbutic. The Staches are a fix of vitamin c in your tired veins. The Staches are fresh and bitter like grapefruit juice. The Staches keep Geneva’s body alive, inseminate energy in its inner cells, avoid its mutation into a rotting corpse.		0:14:04 (Pop-up)
Parsnip	Dummkopf "Dummkopf" by "Parsnip"	Health EP	Anti-Fade Records	2017	Health is the first single from everybody’s new favourite band Parsnip. The track is lifted from their debut self-titled 7”...Parsnip are four girls from Melbourne.		0:17:43 (Pop-up)
BEEF	D.N.A "D.N.A" by "BEEF"	D.N.A - Single	Feel It Records	2022	BEEF is from Cincinnati, OH. He says "BEEF SAYS LISTEN TO THE MUSIC AND GET EDUCATED." BEEF is Ally, John, Sam, and Takoda. The full length is slated for release sometime this year...		0:19:12 (Pop-up)
Snõõper	Waste "Waste" by "Snõõper"	Waste - Single	Electric Outlet	2023	Hooray! A brand new track from Nashville's Snõõper, which has kicked off their tour (still going) and what was likely a most triumphant SXSW appearance. More to come, to be sure...Also there is a video for this track and it's great!	*	0:21:23 (Pop-up)
Beta Máximo	Purpurina y Botes de Gomina	Contra el vicio español	GRABACIONES BONICAS / Discos Bora-Bora	2023	Here are the ingredients that makes Spanish band Beta Máximo’s such a blast: * One drum machine that operates at 200BPM or higher; * killer pop punk melodies; * synthy egg punk weirdness; * a primitive recording device; * a bedroom to record the songs in.		0:22:46 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: The Panthers	Khatak "Khatak" by "The Panthers"	Folk Tunes Of Pakistan (On Sitar & Electric Instruments)	Unknown	1969	In Pakistan only a privileged few got to record their material and the vast majority only got to cut a single or an EP, with instrumental versions of old folk songs and Urdu film tunes were about all they were allowed to record. Not much is known about the Panthers other that they were Pakistani band was formed in the late 1960’s in Karachi.		0:24:17 (Pop-up)

WITCH	Message from WITCH "Message from WITCH" by "WITCH"	Message from WITCH [Single]	Desert Daze Sound	2023	At the vanguard of the Zamrock movement from the 70's, Zambia's WITCH have returned to tour and make new music in 2023. This song speaks to the legacy of Zamrock. In response to a question regarding whether the situation back home has changed for musicians, Emmanuel "Jagari" Chanda had this to say: "Very little has changed. A musician depends on two things: The population of his country and the economic situation of his country. Your country shouldn’t be struggling between buying a CD and buying a meal. Even though I’ve seen some improvement with the young musicians that are coming up, a lot of musicians are struggling because we don’t have an industry per se. There’s no record shop. The only one that was there closed down, and I don’t know how they’re selling their music — maybe online or something. In Nigeria, they are a population of about 200 million. There, if you make one good hit song, maybe at least a million people can buy a record and it gives you time and space to create more, instead of you waking up in the morning and thinking, “Where do I get my next meal?” Or looking for people who can help you survive. There are very few musicians of my generation that are living on music today. Most of them were good musicians, but they never recorded their works. We did what we could. We were surrounded by countries that were fighting for their political freedom and we were the frontline state. South African authorities would come and bomb freedom fighters in Zambia. And then the president of the time declared curfew and blackout. That means if you go to a show at six in the evening, you can’t come out until the following day. If you’re a band, you can’t manage that, so we sometimes performed during the afternoon, and since there’s no beer and it’s only for youngsters, you didn’t get as good a crowd as if you played at night. Then AIDS came in and took a lot of people, not just musicians. It’s easier to say musicians died because they’re more famous than soldiers and teachers, but every aspect of life was affected by that scourge. Now there are very few musicians living from back then, so it’s difficult to carry the genre of Zamrock. If they were around, we would’ve showcased what was happening there in its original form. But nevertheless, we are still representing the era." WITCH (Bandcamp)	*	0:37:36 (Pop-up)
La Jungle	Another Look To The Woman In The Gloom	Ephemeral Feast	Gideon Chase / Black Basset Records	2022	"La Jungle is a techno/transe noise-rock duo from Belgium." "While definitely a child of noise rock, La Jungle takes bits-and-bobs from the whole music spectrum and loop them live with the aim to create compulsive and repetitive sequences. Hypnotic, spontaneous and willingly throbbing, sometimes bordering on an endless groove, their music may even include brief oriental doom pulses or metal diversions bang in the middle of some kraut rock epic trip."

Connie Constance (Feat. Jason Williamson)	Kamikaze (Feat. Jason Williamson)	Kamikaze (Feat. Jason Williamson)	Play It Again Sam	2023	"Connie Constance's new rework of her track ‘Kamikaze’, featuring Sleaford Mods‘ Jason Williamson; which originally appeared on Constance’s 2022 LP ‘Miss Power’ and has been reworked ahead of some UK headline shows. Discussing the track further Connie offers: “It’s about the western beauty standard women are expected to uphold especially those in the media eye. And also the idea that we’re all meant to have it together all the time,” Constance said of the track. “It’s talking about Amy Winehouse and more recently Caroline Flack and how they were treated by the media instead of cared for in a time of need.” Of his role in the reworking of the song, Williamson added: “I love Connie’s energy and message in this track. Although the initial concept was for me to come in as an additional voice from her perspective, i felt it was disingenuous to present myself as someone with first-hand experience of the patriarchy, so I came at it from the other angle: the male counter, the gatekeeper. The tunes banging, I love it.”"	*	0:44:09 (Pop-up)
Shygirl [Björk Remix]	Woe (I See It From Your Side) [Björk Remix]	Nymph [Deluxe]	Because Music	2023	"Last year, in the run-up to her album Fossora, Björk named the British pop experimentalist Shygirl, as one of her favorite current artists. In January, we got to hear Björk and Shygirl on the same track: producer Sega Bodega’s remix of Björk’s single “Ovule.” Today, we’ve got another new Björk/Shygirl team-up, as Björk has released her remix of Shygirl’s 2022 track “Woe.” // “Woe” comes from Nymph, the full-length debut that Shygirl released last year. It’s a woozy club thumper with Shygirl asking, “Why can’t you see it from my side?” On her remix, Björk has taken the track apart completely, turning it into something spacier. Björk also adds her own vocals, turning it into a kind of dialogue with Shygirl, singing that she does see it from Shygirl’s side: “I wish her love to you would suffice/ But those bitches are not meant to satisfy/ They are just part to nursing, crying/ You’re glowing so hard.”"	*	0:46:27 (Pop-up)
Winter, SASAMI [Water From Your Eyes Remix]	good [Water From Your Eyes Remix]	good [Water From Your Eyes Remix] (Digital Single)	Bar None Records	2023	Winter (aka Samara Winter) is an L.A. based shoegaze/dream pop musician. "She has shared a Water From Your Eyes remix of ‘good’, the SASAMI-featuring highlight from her latest album What Kind of Blue Are You? -- “A movie flashes in my mind every time I listen to this remix,” Samira Winter commented in a statement. “The track maintains its hypnotic spell only now with a twist of electrifying chaos that only Water From Your Eyes can bring.”"	*	0:50:13 (Pop-up)
TEKE::TEKE	Gotoku Lemon "Gotoku Lemon" by "TEKE::TEKE"	Hagata	Kill Rock Stars	2023	Released a few days ago in advance of a full-length due out June 9, 2023. "TEKE::TEKE was first an homage to legendary Japanese guitarist Takeshi ‘Terry’ Terauchi and has quickly evolved into a band of its own by blending Japanese ‘Eleki’ with elements of modern music such as shoegaze, post-rock and noise. The band is a cocktail of 7 musicians from well known Montreal projects (Pawa Up First, Patrick Watson, Boogat, Gypsy Kumbia Orchestra and Dynamo Cleoptara)." ////// Lyrics: "GOTOKU LEMON (Lemon enlightenment) "The round eyes, the square eyes, the three eyes / everyone come closer! / Divine effect, immediate remedy for all diseases! / Try these lemons, try them! / Try these magic lemons that wake you up with just one drop! / Sponge-eyes that absorb everything, disappear / Taste these lemons that even glow in the dark! / Wake up tasting these lemons, bright and refreshing! / All kinds of tricks and lies come to see clearly / The mountain is on fire! / Our laughter dances to the sound of belly-drums (To the sound of our belly-drums, we dance laughing)" ----> TEKE::TEKE (Bandcamp)	*	0:55:00 (Pop-up)
工工工 (aka Gong Gong Gong)	Ride Your Horse = 騎你的馬 ("Steel, Mortar, Style, Fun!" by P.E.)	Phantom Rhythm Remixed = 幽靈節奏	Wharf Cat Records	2021	[Feat. P.E. (Brooklyn)] From New Territories, Hong Kong; comprised of a Montréal-Beijing duo. "On Gong Gong Gong’s raucous debut, 'Phantom Rhythm 幽靈節奏,' the minimalist Beijing duo created a drummer-less sound that was more than the sum of its parts, inspired by back-porch blues, Sahelian guitar music, New York no-wave, Cantonese lion dance percussion, and seemingly most incongruously, techno. //// With 'Phantom Rhythm Remixed,' Gong Gong Gong bring to life a concept they’ve planned since the release of their acclaimed first LP, curating their favorite China-connected electronic music producers to remix 'Phantom Rhythm' in its entirety. The globe-spanning collaboration features Yu Su (Vancouver/Kaifeng), Zaliva-D, Simon Frank, Howie Lee (Beijing), Mong Tong, Scattered Purgatory (Taipei), Knopha (Xiamen), Wu Zhuoling (Chengdu), Angel Wei (Copenhagen), and P.E. (Brooklyn). The LP traces a common thread, organically expanding the palette of Gong Gong Gong into ambient club tracks, thumping dance music, cinematic soundscapes, and bit-crushed psych." gonggonggong.bandcamp.com		0:58:52 (Pop-up)

Zaliva-D (Beijing)] "You can call Gong Gong Gong a Canadian band, a Chinese band, or, more precisely, a Hong Kong band. The duo, formed of Tom Ng and Joshua Frank, first started making dark rhythms that sound like the blues run through a post-industrial processor, in Beijing. Since 2015, the pair have been making something on the end of spectrum to noise music, circular guitar hymns written in post-globalization palette of Mandarin and Cantonese dialects.

Ghost Woman	Dead And Gone "Dead And Gone" by "Ghost Woman"	Ghost Woman	Victory Pool	2022	Evan John Uschenko plays his hazy psych pop raw. This is partly an homage to the old ways of DIY — continuing the legacy forged by psychonaunts in small, sweaty spaces around the world since Joe Meek first heard voices in the static — and partly due to the chaotic good mother of invention, necessity. As an integral part of Michael Rault's touring band, Uschenko gained priceless insight during his days sharing the stage with the likes of Jacco Gardner, the Mild High Club, and King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. Honing his studio work with live performance in mind, his play became so incendiary that his rehearsal space caught fire, and whatever gear wasn't burned was later stolen from his van. The world can kick your ass sometimes, but the ever-intrepid Uschenko wouldn't allow himself to get munsoned in the middle of nowhere. Brick by brick, he built the haunted house of Ghost Woman and smudged it with the vibes of a slow-burning Nuggets compilation.		1:15:26 (Pop-up)
Sin Sisamouth	Love Potion # 9 "Love Potion # 9" by "Sin Sisamouth"	ថ្នាំស្នេហ៍លេខប្រាំបួន	The Cambodian Vintage Music Archive	2023	Sinn Sisamouth[a] (c. 1932 – c. 1976) was a Cambodian singer-songwriter active from the 1950s to the 1970s. Widely considered the "King of Khmer Music", and "The Cambodian Elvis", Sisamouth, along with Ros Serey Sothea, Pen Ran, Mao Sareth, and other Cambodian artists, was part of a thriving pop music scene in Phnom Penh that blended elements of Khmer traditional music with the sounds of rhythm and blues and rock and roll to develop a Cambodian rock sound. Sisamouth died during the Khmer Rouge regime under circumstances that are unclear.		1:17:17 (Pop-up)
Orchestra Gold	Koniya "Koniya" by "Orchestra Gold"	Medicine	Orchestra Gold	2022	Hailing from Oakland, CA, Orchestra Gold are a kaleidoscope of sound deeply rooted in the Malian tradition while introducing a genre-bending nod to the future through their rare and artful fusion: African Psychedelic Rock. The music represents this powerful intersection, transcending borders and boundaries to be a force of healing within the community. “When we first started the band, it was really focused on reinterpreting some of the older songs from Mali,” Mariam says, speaking Bambara with Erich translating to English. “But it's really evolved into us trying to create something new that's just more a pure expression of our musical histories and where they intersect.”		1:20:12 (Pop-up)
Kit Sebastian	Şinanay "Şinanay" by "Kit Sebastian"	Şinanay / French Disko (Lagniappe Session)	Mr. Bongo	2022	"We wanted to make a cover of Sezen Aksu for a while. She is one of our favourite Turkish singers / songwriters who inspires us with her effortless mix of different genres, playful lyrics and captivating vocals. The original of Sinanay is a beautiful example of late 80’s Turkish disco pop and the lyrics belong to an important Turkish poet, Melih Cevdet Anday, talking about the ferry that goes to Istanbul’s Princes’ Islands carrying and bringing together different segments and races of society. We liked the idea of transforming it into something more delicate and smooth, with a Brazilian inspired rhythm on guitar and jazz piano lines."		1:24:18 (Pop-up)
Vive la Fête	Touche Pas "Touche Pas" by "Vive la Fête"	Nuit Blanche	Surprise Records	2003	Belgium's Vive la Fête was founded in 1997 when Danny Mommens (then still playing in his former band dEUS ) met Els Pynoo at a party. They recorded a few demo's and released many albums since. Vive la Fête's live shows are energetic outbursts of electronic dance music, rock 'n' roll and the unique voice of Els Pynoo. They were one of the best bands to cross over from French Rock to Electroclash, thanks to Els amazing stage presence and vocals...she was also a muse to Karl Lagerfeld and Chanel in the early 2000's....		1:28:12 (Pop-up)
Film Noir	Erotica "Erotica" by "Film Noir"	Palpitant	Albe Productions	2022	Borrowing heavily from their native France, Film Noir forge a distinctly European-sounding record on Palpitant, an impressively realised debut that opens a portal into the world of post-Brexit rock. The most striking thing about Palpitant is the accessibility, especially as it’s sung in French language, as if plunging listeners back to the days when France Gall and Serge Gainsbourg lit the world up with their jaunty tunes about little nothings enjoyed on the side of France.		1:31:37 (Pop-up)

The C.I.A.	Better "Better" by "The C.I.A."	Surgery Channel	In The Red Records	2023	"Ty Segall has spent the past 15 years building a vast discography of solo releases, side projects, and genre experiments branching into familiar yet distinct phenotypes of the California auteur’s strummy rock’n’roll. The C.I.A., however, is an outlier within the Segall-verse, expanding his scope rather than filling gaps. Formed in late 2017 by Ty, wife Denée Segall, and the Cairo Gang frontman Emmett Kelly, the trio emerged with a unique amalgam of threadbare electronics, tinny bass, and Denée’s snarling spoken word."	*	1:44:13 (Pop-up)
AUS!Funkt, Blake Lambert	Leaders/Losers	Psychosomatic Twitch	Disco DEVIL	2023	"AUS!Funkt is a Toronto-based art-disco-post-punk quartet conceived in the angular jam session neo-laboratory. Rejecting the lyrical and musical excesses of rock music, AUS!Funkt combines the groove of electronic music with the subversive aggression of post-punk. The lyrics, spoken and sung, provoke the mind with their realism and repetition. Electronic beats seduce the body into movement, freeing it from its torpor. On top, the guitar spurts out clouds of noise, while the bass supplies the melody. AUS!Funkt assaults the senses and unease the mind while you dance to its unsettling disco groove. AUS!Funkt started off conceptually as a post-punk project but in the process, we embraced the elements of electronica, dub, disco, garage rock and blues while maintaining grittiness, simplicity and repetitiveness. While the sound palette expanded, the principles remained the same: the notes omitted are more important than the ones played, tension is created by removing elements from the song and when you feel that you want to change the key or play a solo – stop playing and leave some room for the rhythm to breathe."	*	1:45:53 (Pop-up)

	8:13pm Mr Fab: Hey beach bunnies! Just remember: there are NO bad pelicans!
	8:13pm DJ Babs: ↳ Kristine @8:13 Nervous Post Punk is the best post punk. this is an odd record to be sure! The cover art is beautiful!
	8:13pm DJ Babs: Hahaha ! Hello Hello Mr. Fab!
	8:14pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ DJ Babs @8:12 You, Derek, and MeepMoop can start a WD style mosh pit in your studio. 😬😱🙀
	8:14pm Robm: ↳ Your Pretend Boyfriend @8:14 Ha ha ha
	🏝 8:14pm Kristine: DAF!!!!
	8:15pm DJ Babs: Haha It's true! You guys don't know this but me and Derek and Your Pretend Boyfriend found ourselves in a mosh pit on Tuesday night! I was like I AM 50 AND MOSHING...
	8:15pm DJ Babs: It was exhilarating for the 2 minutes I lasted LOL
	🏝 8:16pm Kristine: I lived in geneva, and never heard of the staches. i kind of wish i had.
	🏝 8:17pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Mr Fab @8:13 Apart from the one under my chin mate!🍺
	8:17pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ DJ Babs @8:15 That show was so much fun. The mosh pit, not so much. Lol #sensibleoldguy

	8:18pm DJ Babs: ↳ Tome @8:17 I usually avoid mosh pits at this point but I couldn't help but be right at the front for the Warmduscher show and well...there it was! LOL
	8:19pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Mr Fab @8:13 Hello there Mr. Fab. Fair point. The pelicans thank-you.

	🏝 8:19pm Kristine: @Babs LOL!
	🏝 8:20pm Kristine: More great organ!
	8:20pm DJ Babs: Takes a Swiss to know a Swiss!
	8:20pm ultradamno: Speaking of Swiss postpunk, the Kleenex/Liliput book...a little pricey but worth it, maybe www.thrillingliving.com
	8:20pm laurapanic: Hi team....late! I thought the show started in another hour.
	8:20pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Kristine @8:20 Agreed! Babs has found the vital organs.
	8:21pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Dummkopf" by "Parsnip" Love Parsnip, even more love related band Chook Race
	8:21pm Tome: you cats are the greatest love the show too !<>! and the converstaions !<>!
	🏝 8:21pm Kristine: i bought the kleenex biography twenty years ago...this must be something different though..
	8:21pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ laurapanic @8:20 Hi Laura! There is no time on the beach. We're lost in echoes of all times.

	8:22pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ Song: "D.N.A" by "BEEF" This is cooolll.
	8:22pm DJ Babs: Hello Hello Laura! Glad you're here!!!
	8:22pm ultradamno: ↳ Kristine @8:21 Somewhat "In 1986, guitarist Marlene Marder published a German-language diary documenting her time in Kleenex/LiLiPUT, Zurich’s first all-female band. Thrilling Living is proud to offer a lavishly illustrated English-language edition, featuring over 200 images"
	8:22pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Tome @8:21 Ah, Tome, so happy you are here with us! Yes, we are lucky to have so many wonderful folks here chatting w/ us every week!
	8:22pm DJ Babs: ↳ Your Pretend Boyfriend @8:22 Glad you like YPB!!!!
	🏝 8:23pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:22 Punks*
	8:23pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @8:22 Also "afterword by editor Grace Ambrose and translator Jen Calleja" (that's Jen Calleja of the great Sauna Youth and terrific writer in her own right)
	8:23pm Robm: ↳ Derek Westerholm @8:22 Because it is such a cool station
	8:24pm Tome: glad to be here too Derek trying to "fit in " should I say but loving the tunes also ,, really energizing and the elaborate comments reading also )
	8:24pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ Song: "Waste" by "Snõõper" Love this spelling of the band name. ❤️
	8:25pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Robm @8:23 Robm, agreed. WFMU is an incredibly special station. And Sheena's Jungle is a fantastic Room.
	8:25pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ Tome @8:24 You are fitting in nicely.
	8:27pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Kristine @8:10 Kristine, I see Babs' comment actually mentioned The Yummy Fur, ha! I guess everyone hears it pretty clearly!
	8:27pm Robm: ↳ Derek Westerholm @8:25 Yeah derkek love the fact that you guys can throw f bombs around and the songs don’t have to be bleeped, and the trolls are less on the internet streams
	8:28pm Mr Fab: I’ve been inadvertently caught in the mosh pit (haven’t we all?). Was pretty bummed when i staked out a spot in front of the stage one of the times I saw The Ramones, but as soon as the band started to play, BLAM! I got knocked half back of the hall like a pinball. (Was still a great show tho)
	8:28pm Robm: ↳ Robm @8:27 Derek sorry for misspelling your name
	8:31pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ Robm @8:28 I do like the name DJ Derkek though.
	8:31pm Aitch: Melbin
	8:31pm Tome: Exodus, Pantera, suicidal tendencies , my last crowded most experiences show was metal bonkers fun, but got way out of hand like ~ 1994 )
	8:31pm Robm: ↳ Your Pretend Boyfriend @8:31 Thanks
	8:32pm laurapanic: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:22 Nunchukka are so freaking great - have supported them a couple of times. Buddhadatta are here ina couple of weeks and I'll be trying to check them out.
	8:35pm Robm: @Babs unfortunately a lot of commercials on there
	🏝 8:35pm Kristine: the conny plank one was also on youtube!
	8:35pm laurapanic: Tubi has the Le Tigre doco. It is so good. Beware, some are very bad docos too, where they are B roll and a voiceover. Like a power point presentation. But many are great. I endorse Tubi! The Residents doco is on there....I'm speaking for the Australian Tubi platform. Which does not have as much cool stuff.
	8:36pm laurapanic: ↳ Robm @8:35 I don't find it is a lot of ads. Totally tolerable....less annoying than YouTube ads I reckon
	8:36pm Alli B: Hi everyone!
	8:36pm Mr Fab: I think Babs needs another show here for all her groovy lounge a-gogo talkover music. "Babs' Cocktail Hour." Who's with me?!
	8:37pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Your Pretend Boyfriend @8:31 I also like Derkek... Not a bad misspelling!
	8:37pm laurapanic: There is a fair bit of band member swapping, but no more than anywhere. What I find is that WFMU DJs find pockets of bands that may be closer to eachother, parts of the same scene. And its cool, it makes sense.
	8:37pm ultradamno: That goddamn goji commercial with that annoying "and you're feeling cute in your birthday suit" song has turned me against all vitamins and supplements forever. I have The Residents doc on Blu-Ray ("The Theory Of Obscurity"), it's pretty good.
	🏝 8:37pm Scott_Oz: G like Giraffe. Geelong.
	8:37pm Derek Westerholm: Hello Aitch! Hello AlliB!
	8:38pm Robm: ↳ laurapanic @8:36 You right, plus thy have some good tv shows
	8:39pm DJ Babs: Gee like oh JEEZ ok gotcha! Thank you Scott!!!
	🏝 8:40pm Kristine: this is fabulous!
	8:41pm DJ Babs: ↳ Mr Fab @8:36 Hello Hello Alli! Welcome welcome! Glad to have you with us!!
	8:41pm DJ Babs: ↳ Mr Fab @8:36 Mr Fab if I ever get to leave my day job I will do ALL the shows lol Also yes there's nothing more fun/scary than being in an accidental mosh pit and being pinballed about!! LOL
	8:41pm Alli B: Thank you! So happy to be here!
	8:42pm DJ Babs: YAAAAY! I am definitely in good spirits tonight!!!
	8:42pm Alli B: SMDS (shakin my damn shoulders) shimmy shimmy
	8:43pm DJ Babs: Shimmy shimmy! I've got my steps counter on I will fill you in on how many steps I pulled during this show LOLZ
	8:46pm DJ Babs: ohh I like this!!!!
	8:46pm Alli B: I’ll be starting my dancing very soon, too! I usually average 600 per song!
	8:47pm DJ Babs: lol does it still count if you're running in place with a glass of wine in your hand?
	8:47pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ DJ Babs @8:46 Me too!!!
	8:48pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Kamikaze (Feat. Jason Williamson)" by "Connie Con... wow!
	8:48pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ DJ Babs @8:47 It’s important to hydrate while you put in your steps.
	8:49pm Alli B: I always dance with a drink!
	8:49pm DJ Babs: Exactly! LOL. Derek has us on the HITT program. Bursts of high intensity with low movement breaks. I'm doing some Stevie Nicks swoops to this! Thank god this show is not video LOLZ
	8:50pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ laurapanic @8:48 Laura, right?
	8:50pm Alli B: I love doing the swoops!
	8:50pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Kristine @8:40 Kristine, the Witch? All the new stuff sounds great so far... Looking forward to hearing everything they do!
	🏝 8:51pm Kristine: @derek, yes the witch!
	8:51pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ DJ Babs @8:49 Move over Pilates…swoops are the new sheriff in town.
	8:54pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ DJ Babs @8:49 Didn't know I was playing all HITTs tonight.
	8:54pm DJ Babs: yuck yuck yuck!
	8:59pm Derek Westerholm: The guitar part here shifts this song into a new place altogether!
	8:59pm Derek Westerholm: Just even the smallest bit of chaos generally excites me.
	🏝 9:00pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi DJ Babs, Derek, and all!!!
	9:01pm Derek Westerholm: Hello Will Thee S G!
	9:01pm Derek Westerholm: How are you? What news? What goes on?
	9:02pm Alli B: Hahaha Derek!

	9:07pm ultradamno: Or the band □9
	9:09pm Tome: lovin' it Derek and BaBs keep it going !<>!
	9:15pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Inner Reaches III = 慾望的暗角三 (Zaliva-D Remix)" by "... Hmmm....so if you end a playlist title entry that includes non-english language characters with english, you can still have a clicky star?
	9:16pm Tome: great talk Derek )
	9:19pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Love Potion # 9" by "Sin Sisamouth" SINN!!!!
	9:19pm DJ Babs: Derek is very good at the talkings!
	🏝 9:19pm Kristine: yeah! this is great
	9:19pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Tome @9:16 Thanks Tome! ...Be careful encouraging me to be long-winded, though... haha.
	9:19pm DJ Babs: Hells yeah! This song has been living in my head all week!
	9:20pm Mr Fab: ooh, have they uncovered more Sin Sisamouth?
	9:20pm DJ Babs: Yes they have! It seems there are more reissues coming out! Now if only they could actually uncover him...poor guy things did not end well for him!
	9:20pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ ultradamno @9:15 Ultra, seems so... I would imagine clicky stars are enabled for most anything entered as a song, no?
	🏝 9:23pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:20 If there isn't a single recognizable letter the system wont recognize it to Star.
	9:23pm Mr Fab: man I am diggin this rock-xotica REAL hard.
	9:24pm ultradamno: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:20 As it's been explained to me, unicode reads non latin characters as an image and you don't get an accompanying clicky star with those titles.
	9:25pm DJ Babs: ↳ Mr Fab @9:23 So glad you are having fun Mr. Fab! It's so nice to have you with us in the chat this week! :-) Yes we are having lots of fun here too!!!
	9:25pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ ultradamno @9:24 Ah, as you can see, I have no idea about these things... Guess the power of III circumvented the logic.
	9:25pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Love Potion # 9" by "Sin Sisamouth" www.cambodianvintagemusicarchive.com...
	9:28pm DJ Babs: @MrFab Derek has a special treat planned for you in his set to be sure! ;-)
	9:29pm Mr Fab: ↳ DJ Babs @9:25 Mrs Fab is out of town, so I get to goof off in front of the computer all night, haha.
	9:29pm Mr Fab: ↳ DJ Babs @9:28 Ah, shucks! Heck, this SHOW is a treat!
	9:30pm DJ Babs: ↳ Mr Fab @9:29 hahaaaaaa! I'm sure that Derek can relate! And I do the same to be sure!
	9:31pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Mr Fab @9:29 Mr. Fab, wonderful to have you in the room in your extra-muchly-available form... Tell us a story...!
	9:31pm DJ Babs: I'm at that part of my bottle of wine where I start to get maudlin but I cannot tell you HOW MUCH WE LOVE DOING THIS SHOW and HANGING WITH YOU ALL

	9:53pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Frightened" by "Dead Finks" Top 2 favorite Fall song for me, so I can't fault their taste in covers.
	9:53pm Mr Fab: ↳ DJ Babs @9:52 Haha, right on! I cranked it up as soon as it started.
	9:54pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Mr Fab @9:51 Mr. Fab, yes, I thought so, too... Also they have an EP called "Seven Deadly Sins", re-inverting the "Seven Deadly Finns" ref. Haha. thedeadfinks1.bandcamp.com...
	9:55pm v-dawg: Hey all. I am drinking white wine. I got a "eat your vegetables" anecdote. I ordered some healthy dinner the other night, pre-made lentil patty with vegetable sides (cabbage, carrots, zucchini). I ate the cold patty, but i do not really like those vegetable much (especially raw!). I did not want to waste them so i brought them house. However, i did not know how to cook them. So i said to myself, "White wine and butter usually works". So I bought a bottle of a white California blend. I added the wine, the last of the Italian butter, and spices, cooked the vegetables. Yes, my left over vegetables with left over pasta tasted palatable. I do not care that it is 40°F degrees out. I am gonna have another glass because it tastes good.
	9:57pm laurapanic: our weekly Fall (or fall adjacent) offering
	9:57pm Mr Fab: So wait..this band is NOT Extricate? There are TWO bands out there feat. former Fall folk?

Music behind DJ: 工工工 (aka Gong Gong Gong)	Some Kind of Demon 某一種惡魔 (Yu Su Remix)	Phantom Rhythm Remixed = 幽靈節奏	Wharf Cat Records	2021	[Feat. Yu Su (Vancouver/Kaifeng)] "In 2019, Montréal/Beijing duo Gong Gong Gong 工工工 delivered globetrotting no wave on their debut full-length album, Phantom Rhythm 幽靈節奏. They homed in on their Chinese roots with [the 2021] remix album, Phantom Rhythm Remixed, via Wharf Cat Records/bié Records. // Each of the 10 remixes finds a different electronic artist with ties to China giving beat-heavy interpretations of the original album's rickety, percussion-less rock tracks, transforming Tom Ng's guitars and vocals and Joshua Frank's bass into myriad new forms. // Paying tribute to their Chinese-Canadian origins, the first remix revealed from the album is courtesy of Kaifeng-born, Vancouver-based producer and bié Records founder Yu Su. "Some Kind of Demon 某一種惡魔 (Yu Su Midnight Express Dub)" finds Yu Su chopping up Ng's vocals before dousing them in reverb and placing them atop lightly vaporwaved synths and bass. // Said Frank in a press release, "Yu Su was the first person to send us a Phantom Rhythm remix. She worked on it after finishing a tour that went all across China — which was also when we met. The pandemic had just started to get severe outside of China, and Yu Su was stuck at home in Kaifeng, while I was stuck in my apartment in New York." // The track's accompanying video features footage of Gong Gong Gong's 2018 tour of China." gonggonggong.bandcamp.com		0:00:00 (Pop-up)
Vintage Crop	The North "The North" by "Vintage Crop"	Serve To Serve Again	Upset The Rhythm	2020	Vintage Crop are an Australian music group from Geelong. Their burly, brusque yet supple songs have evolved from the garage rock of 2017’s TV Organs album into the post-punk panic attack of last year’s Company Man EP. Now they’ve sculpted their sound further, the barrage now offset with robust songwriting, their full-pelt bounce tempered with flailing guitar lines and sardonic commentary. Bringing to mind Wire tackling tracks from early 7”s by The Yummy Fur, it’s an inspired approach, both striking and effortlessly mirthful. Vintage Crop still dish-up plenty of commanding stomp, their lyrics remain as keen-eyed as ever, but now they’re unafraid to mess with the tempo and drive their point home.		0:04:50 (Pop-up)
Bad Pelicans	PARIS "PARIS" by "Bad Pelicans"	Eternal Life Now	Geographie Recs	2023	Eternal Life Now is packed full of gems, plenty of which do what they say on the tin with no attempt to put up an illusion. Opening with Paris, the trio introduce themselves through this piece of their identity, with throbbing riffs that cause you to wade through the track instead of rush through head first. Paris is captured through the warped lens of BAD PELICANS – statuesque and seriously monochrome.		0:07:40 (Pop-up)
Hierophants	Autofocus "Autofocus" by "Hierophants"	Spitting Out Moonlight	Anti-Fade Records	2019	Hierophants are an Australian quartet who play jittery, nervous post-punk/new wave-inspired indie rock. Their simple, catchy songs feature buzzing organ and a thin layer of echo, along with lyrics expressing stress and frustration. If this project is reminiscent of Parsnip and School Damage...that's because it features members of both bands. Does everyone play with everyone in Australia?		0:10:41 (Pop-up)
DAF	Essen Dann Schlaften "Essen Dann Schlaften" by "DAF"	Die Kleinen Und Die Bösen	Mute	1980	Die Kleinen und die Bösen is the second album by Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft, released on 13 June 1980. It was the first album ever released on Mute Records. Side A and the first track of side B are studio recordings produced by Conny Plank. "it helped not merely in establishing the group's cachet, but the label's and, in turn, the whole genre of experimental electronic music in the '80s and beyond."		0:12:54 (Pop-up)
The Staches	Fake Stomach Ache "Fake Stomach Ache" by "The Staches"	This Lake Is Pointless	Bongo Joe	2019	In Geneva, God and Satan share the same restaurant table. They even have the same cocaïne dealer. But it was better before ! The city had several squats. The city had its little island of freedom in the paradise of money and lies. Within this procession of rich, arrogant, famous people, Geneva kept a certain idea of resistance. The Staches are part of it with their garage rock high in vitamin. The Staches are antiscorbutic. The Staches are a fix of vitamin c in your tired veins. The Staches are fresh and bitter like grapefruit juice. The Staches keep Geneva’s body alive, inseminate energy in its inner cells, avoid its mutation into a rotting corpse.		0:14:04 (Pop-up)
Parsnip	Dummkopf "Dummkopf" by "Parsnip"	Health EP	Anti-Fade Records	2017	Health is the first single from everybody’s new favourite band Parsnip. The track is lifted from their debut self-titled 7”...Parsnip are four girls from Melbourne.		0:17:43 (Pop-up)

Snõõper	Waste "Waste" by "Snõõper"	Waste - Single	Electric Outlet	2023	Hooray! A brand new track from Nashville's Snõõper, which has kicked off their tour (still going) and what was likely a most triumphant SXSW appearance. More to come, to be sure...Also there is a video for this track and it's great!	*	0:21:23 (Pop-up)
Beta Máximo	Purpurina y Botes de Gomina	Contra el vicio español	GRABACIONES BONICAS / Discos Bora-Bora	2023	Here are the ingredients that makes Spanish band Beta Máximo’s such a blast: * One drum machine that operates at 200BPM or higher; * killer pop punk melodies; * synthy egg punk weirdness; * a primitive recording device; * a bedroom to record the songs in.		0:22:46 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: The Panthers	Khatak "Khatak" by "The Panthers"	Folk Tunes Of Pakistan (On Sitar & Electric Instruments)	Unknown	1969	In Pakistan only a privileged few got to record their material and the vast majority only got to cut a single or an EP, with instrumental versions of old folk songs and Urdu film tunes were about all they were allowed to record. Not much is known about the Panthers other that they were Pakistani band was formed in the late 1960’s in Karachi.		0:24:17 (Pop-up)

WITCH	Message from WITCH "Message from WITCH" by "WITCH"	Message from WITCH [Single]	Desert Daze Sound	2023	At the vanguard of the Zamrock movement from the 70's, Zambia's WITCH have returned to tour and make new music in 2023. This song speaks to the legacy of Zamrock. In response to a question regarding whether the situation back home has changed for musicians, Emmanuel "Jagari" Chanda had this to say: "Very little has changed. A musician depends on two things: The population of his country and the economic situation of his country. Your country shouldn’t be struggling between buying a CD and buying a meal. Even though I’ve seen some improvement with the young musicians that are coming up, a lot of musicians are struggling because we don’t have an industry per se. There’s no record shop. The only one that was there closed down, and I don’t know how they’re selling their music — maybe online or something. In Nigeria, they are a population of about 200 million. There, if you make one good hit song, maybe at least a million people can buy a record and it gives you time and space to create more, instead of you waking up in the morning and thinking, “Where do I get my next meal?” Or looking for people who can help you survive. There are very few musicians of my generation that are living on music today. Most of them were good musicians, but they never recorded their works. We did what we could. We were surrounded by countries that were fighting for their political freedom and we were the frontline state. South African authorities would come and bomb freedom fighters in Zambia. And then the president of the time declared curfew and blackout. That means if you go to a show at six in the evening, you can’t come out until the following day. If you’re a band, you can’t manage that, so we sometimes performed during the afternoon, and since there’s no beer and it’s only for youngsters, you didn’t get as good a crowd as if you played at night. Then AIDS came in and took a lot of people, not just musicians. It’s easier to say musicians died because they’re more famous than soldiers and teachers, but every aspect of life was affected by that scourge. Now there are very few musicians living from back then, so it’s difficult to carry the genre of Zamrock. If they were around, we would’ve showcased what was happening there in its original form. But nevertheless, we are still representing the era." WITCH (Bandcamp)	*	0:37:36 (Pop-up)
La Jungle	Another Look To The Woman In The Gloom	Ephemeral Feast	Gideon Chase / Black Basset Records	2022	"La Jungle is a techno/transe noise-rock duo from Belgium." "While definitely a child of noise rock, La Jungle takes bits-and-bobs from the whole music spectrum and loop them live with the aim to create compulsive and repetitive sequences. Hypnotic, spontaneous and willingly throbbing, sometimes bordering on an endless groove, their music may even include brief oriental doom pulses or metal diversions bang in the middle of some kraut rock epic trip."

Connie Constance (Feat. Jason Williamson)	Kamikaze (Feat. Jason Williamson)	Kamikaze (Feat. Jason Williamson)	Play It Again Sam	2023	"Connie Constance's new rework of her track ‘Kamikaze’, featuring Sleaford Mods‘ Jason Williamson; which originally appeared on Constance’s 2022 LP ‘Miss Power’ and has been reworked ahead of some UK headline shows. Discussing the track further Connie offers: “It’s about the western beauty standard women are expected to uphold especially those in the media eye. And also the idea that we’re all meant to have it together all the time,” Constance said of the track. “It’s talking about Amy Winehouse and more recently Caroline Flack and how they were treated by the media instead of cared for in a time of need.” Of his role in the reworking of the song, Williamson added: “I love Connie’s energy and message in this track. Although the initial concept was for me to come in as an additional voice from her perspective, i felt it was disingenuous to present myself as someone with first-hand experience of the patriarchy, so I came at it from the other angle: the male counter, the gatekeeper. The tunes banging, I love it.”"	*	0:44:09 (Pop-up)
Shygirl [Björk Remix]	Woe (I See It From Your Side) [Björk Remix]	Nymph [Deluxe]	Because Music	2023	"Last year, in the run-up to her album Fossora, Björk named the British pop experimentalist Shygirl, as one of her favorite current artists. In January, we got to hear Björk and Shygirl on the same track: producer Sega Bodega’s remix of Björk’s single “Ovule.” Today, we’ve got another new Björk/Shygirl team-up, as Björk has released her remix of Shygirl’s 2022 track “Woe.” // “Woe” comes from Nymph, the full-length debut that Shygirl released last year. It’s a woozy club thumper with Shygirl asking, “Why can’t you see it from my side?” On her remix, Björk has taken the track apart completely, turning it into something spacier. Björk also adds her own vocals, turning it into a kind of dialogue with Shygirl, singing that she does see it from Shygirl’s side: “I wish her love to you would suffice/ But those bitches are not meant to satisfy/ They are just part to nursing, crying/ You’re glowing so hard.”"	*	0:46:27 (Pop-up)
Winter, SASAMI [Water From Your Eyes Remix]	good [Water From Your Eyes Remix]	good [Water From Your Eyes Remix] (Digital Single)	Bar None Records	2023	Winter (aka Samara Winter) is an L.A. based shoegaze/dream pop musician. "She has shared a Water From Your Eyes remix of ‘good’, the SASAMI-featuring highlight from her latest album What Kind of Blue Are You? -- “A movie flashes in my mind every time I listen to this remix,” Samira Winter commented in a statement. “The track maintains its hypnotic spell only now with a twist of electrifying chaos that only Water From Your Eyes can bring.”"	*	0:50:13 (Pop-up)
TEKE::TEKE	Gotoku Lemon "Gotoku Lemon" by "TEKE::TEKE"	Hagata	Kill Rock Stars	2023	Released a few days ago in advance of a full-length due out June 9, 2023. "TEKE::TEKE was first an homage to legendary Japanese guitarist Takeshi ‘Terry’ Terauchi and has quickly evolved into a band of its own by blending Japanese ‘Eleki’ with elements of modern music such as shoegaze, post-rock and noise. The band is a cocktail of 7 musicians from well known Montreal projects (Pawa Up First, Patrick Watson, Boogat, Gypsy Kumbia Orchestra and Dynamo Cleoptara)." ////// Lyrics: "GOTOKU LEMON (Lemon enlightenment) "The round eyes, the square eyes, the three eyes / everyone come closer! / Divine effect, immediate remedy for all diseases! / Try these lemons, try them! / Try these magic lemons that wake you up with just one drop! / Sponge-eyes that absorb everything, disappear / Taste these lemons that even glow in the dark! / Wake up tasting these lemons, bright and refreshing! / All kinds of tricks and lies come to see clearly / The mountain is on fire! / Our laughter dances to the sound of belly-drums (To the sound of our belly-drums, we dance laughing)" ----> TEKE::TEKE (Bandcamp)	*	0:55:00 (Pop-up)
工工工 (aka Gong Gong Gong)	Ride Your Horse = 騎你的馬 ("Steel, Mortar, Style, Fun!" by P.E.)	Phantom Rhythm Remixed = 幽靈節奏	Wharf Cat Records	2021	[Feat. P.E. (Brooklyn)] From New Territories, Hong Kong; comprised of a Montréal-Beijing duo. "On Gong Gong Gong’s raucous debut, 'Phantom Rhythm 幽靈節奏,' the minimalist Beijing duo created a drummer-less sound that was more than the sum of its parts, inspired by back-porch blues, Sahelian guitar music, New York no-wave, Cantonese lion dance percussion, and seemingly most incongruously, techno. //// With 'Phantom Rhythm Remixed,' Gong Gong Gong bring to life a concept they’ve planned since the release of their acclaimed first LP, curating their favorite China-connected electronic music producers to remix 'Phantom Rhythm' in its entirety. The globe-spanning collaboration features Yu Su (Vancouver/Kaifeng), Zaliva-D, Simon Frank, Howie Lee (Beijing), Mong Tong, Scattered Purgatory (Taipei), Knopha (Xiamen), Wu Zhuoling (Chengdu), Angel Wei (Copenhagen), and P.E. (Brooklyn). The LP traces a common thread, organically expanding the palette of Gong Gong Gong into ambient club tracks, thumping dance music, cinematic soundscapes, and bit-crushed psych." gonggonggong.bandcamp.com		0:58:52 (Pop-up)

Ghost Woman	Dead And Gone "Dead And Gone" by "Ghost Woman"	Ghost Woman	Victory Pool	2022	Evan John Uschenko plays his hazy psych pop raw. This is partly an homage to the old ways of DIY — continuing the legacy forged by psychonaunts in small, sweaty spaces around the world since Joe Meek first heard voices in the static — and partly due to the chaotic good mother of invention, necessity. As an integral part of Michael Rault's touring band, Uschenko gained priceless insight during his days sharing the stage with the likes of Jacco Gardner, the Mild High Club, and King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. Honing his studio work with live performance in mind, his play became so incendiary that his rehearsal space caught fire, and whatever gear wasn't burned was later stolen from his van. The world can kick your ass sometimes, but the ever-intrepid Uschenko wouldn't allow himself to get munsoned in the middle of nowhere. Brick by brick, he built the haunted house of Ghost Woman and smudged it with the vibes of a slow-burning Nuggets compilation.		1:15:26 (Pop-up)
Sin Sisamouth	Love Potion # 9 "Love Potion # 9" by "Sin Sisamouth"	ថ្នាំស្នេហ៍លេខប្រាំបួន	The Cambodian Vintage Music Archive	2023	Sinn Sisamouth[a] (c. 1932 – c. 1976) was a Cambodian singer-songwriter active from the 1950s to the 1970s. Widely considered the "King of Khmer Music", and "The Cambodian Elvis", Sisamouth, along with Ros Serey Sothea, Pen Ran, Mao Sareth, and other Cambodian artists, was part of a thriving pop music scene in Phnom Penh that blended elements of Khmer traditional music with the sounds of rhythm and blues and rock and roll to develop a Cambodian rock sound. Sisamouth died during the Khmer Rouge regime under circumstances that are unclear.		1:17:17 (Pop-up)
Orchestra Gold	Koniya "Koniya" by "Orchestra Gold"	Medicine	Orchestra Gold	2022	Hailing from Oakland, CA, Orchestra Gold are a kaleidoscope of sound deeply rooted in the Malian tradition while introducing a genre-bending nod to the future through their rare and artful fusion: African Psychedelic Rock. The music represents this powerful intersection, transcending borders and boundaries to be a force of healing within the community. “When we first started the band, it was really focused on reinterpreting some of the older songs from Mali,” Mariam says, speaking Bambara with Erich translating to English. “But it's really evolved into us trying to create something new that's just more a pure expression of our musical histories and where they intersect.”		1:20:12 (Pop-up)
Kit Sebastian	Şinanay "Şinanay" by "Kit Sebastian"	Şinanay / French Disko (Lagniappe Session)	Mr. Bongo	2022	"We wanted to make a cover of Sezen Aksu for a while. She is one of our favourite Turkish singers / songwriters who inspires us with her effortless mix of different genres, playful lyrics and captivating vocals. The original of Sinanay is a beautiful example of late 80’s Turkish disco pop and the lyrics belong to an important Turkish poet, Melih Cevdet Anday, talking about the ferry that goes to Istanbul’s Princes’ Islands carrying and bringing together different segments and races of society. We liked the idea of transforming it into something more delicate and smooth, with a Brazilian inspired rhythm on guitar and jazz piano lines."		1:24:18 (Pop-up)
Vive la Fête	Touche Pas "Touche Pas" by "Vive la Fête"	Nuit Blanche	Surprise Records	2003	Belgium's Vive la Fête was founded in 1997 when Danny Mommens (then still playing in his former band dEUS ) met Els Pynoo at a party. They recorded a few demo's and released many albums since. Vive la Fête's live shows are energetic outbursts of electronic dance music, rock 'n' roll and the unique voice of Els Pynoo. They were one of the best bands to cross over from French Rock to Electroclash, thanks to Els amazing stage presence and vocals...she was also a muse to Karl Lagerfeld and Chanel in the early 2000's....		1:28:12 (Pop-up)
Film Noir	Erotica "Erotica" by "Film Noir"	Palpitant	Albe Productions	2022	Borrowing heavily from their native France, Film Noir forge a distinctly European-sounding record on Palpitant, an impressively realised debut that opens a portal into the world of post-Brexit rock. The most striking thing about Palpitant is the accessibility, especially as it’s sung in French language, as if plunging listeners back to the days when France Gall and Serge Gainsbourg lit the world up with their jaunty tunes about little nothings enjoyed on the side of France.		1:31:37 (Pop-up)

The C.I.A.	Better "Better" by "The C.I.A."	Surgery Channel	In The Red Records	2023	"Ty Segall has spent the past 15 years building a vast discography of solo releases, side projects, and genre experiments branching into familiar yet distinct phenotypes of the California auteur’s strummy rock’n’roll. The C.I.A., however, is an outlier within the Segall-verse, expanding his scope rather than filling gaps. Formed in late 2017 by Ty, wife Denée Segall, and the Cairo Gang frontman Emmett Kelly, the trio emerged with a unique amalgam of threadbare electronics, tinny bass, and Denée’s snarling spoken word."	*	1:44:13 (Pop-up)
AUS!Funkt, Blake Lambert	Leaders/Losers	Psychosomatic Twitch	Disco DEVIL	2023	"AUS!Funkt is a Toronto-based art-disco-post-punk quartet conceived in the angular jam session neo-laboratory. Rejecting the lyrical and musical excesses of rock music, AUS!Funkt combines the groove of electronic music with the subversive aggression of post-punk. The lyrics, spoken and sung, provoke the mind with their realism and repetition. Electronic beats seduce the body into movement, freeing it from its torpor. On top, the guitar spurts out clouds of noise, while the bass supplies the melody. AUS!Funkt assaults the senses and unease the mind while you dance to its unsettling disco groove. AUS!Funkt started off conceptually as a post-punk project but in the process, we embraced the elements of electronica, dub, disco, garage rock and blues while maintaining grittiness, simplicity and repetitiveness. While the sound palette expanded, the principles remained the same: the notes omitted are more important than the ones played, tension is created by removing elements from the song and when you feel that you want to change the key or play a solo – stop playing and leave some room for the rhythm to breathe."	*	1:45:53 (Pop-up)

	8:13pm DJ Babs: ↳ Kristine @8:13 Nervous Post Punk is the best post punk. this is an odd record to be sure! The cover art is beautiful!
	8:13pm DJ Babs: Hahaha ! Hello Hello Mr. Fab!
	8:14pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ DJ Babs @8:12 You, Derek, and MeepMoop can start a WD style mosh pit in your studio. 😬😱🙀
	8:14pm Robm: ↳ Your Pretend Boyfriend @8:14 Ha ha ha
	🏝 8:14pm Kristine: DAF!!!!
	8:15pm DJ Babs: Haha It's true! You guys don't know this but me and Derek and Your Pretend Boyfriend found ourselves in a mosh pit on Tuesday night! I was like I AM 50 AND MOSHING...
	8:15pm DJ Babs: It was exhilarating for the 2 minutes I lasted LOL
	🏝 8:16pm Kristine: I lived in geneva, and never heard of the staches. i kind of wish i had.

	🏝 8:19pm Kristine: @Babs LOL!
	🏝 8:20pm Kristine: More great organ!
	8:20pm DJ Babs: Takes a Swiss to know a Swiss!
	8:20pm ultradamno: Speaking of Swiss postpunk, the Kleenex/Liliput book...a little pricey but worth it, maybe www.thrillingliving.com
	8:20pm laurapanic: Hi team....late! I thought the show started in another hour.
	8:20pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Kristine @8:20 Agreed! Babs has found the vital organs.
	8:21pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Dummkopf" by "Parsnip" Love Parsnip, even more love related band Chook Race

	8:21pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ laurapanic @8:20 Hi Laura! There is no time on the beach. We're lost in echoes of all times.

	8:22pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Tome @8:21 Ah, Tome, so happy you are here with us! Yes, we are lucky to have so many wonderful folks here chatting w/ us every week!
	8:22pm DJ Babs: ↳ Your Pretend Boyfriend @8:22 Glad you like YPB!!!!
	🏝 8:23pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:22 Punks*
	8:23pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @8:22 Also "afterword by editor Grace Ambrose and translator Jen Calleja" (that's Jen Calleja of the great Sauna Youth and terrific writer in her own right)
	8:23pm Robm: ↳ Derek Westerholm @8:22 Because it is such a cool station
	8:24pm Tome: glad to be here too Derek trying to "fit in " should I say but loving the tunes also ,, really energizing and the elaborate comments reading also )
	8:24pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ Song: "Waste" by "Snõõper" Love this spelling of the band name. ❤️
	8:25pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Robm @8:23 Robm, agreed. WFMU is an incredibly special station. And Sheena's Jungle is a fantastic Room.
	8:25pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ Tome @8:24 You are fitting in nicely.
	8:27pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Kristine @8:10 Kristine, I see Babs' comment actually mentioned The Yummy Fur, ha! I guess everyone hears it pretty clearly!
	8:27pm Robm: ↳ Derek Westerholm @8:25 Yeah derkek love the fact that you guys can throw f bombs around and the songs don’t have to be bleeped, and the trolls are less on the internet streams
	8:28pm Mr Fab: I’ve been inadvertently caught in the mosh pit (haven’t we all?). Was pretty bummed when i staked out a spot in front of the stage one of the times I saw The Ramones, but as soon as the band started to play, BLAM! I got knocked half back of the hall like a pinball. (Was still a great show tho)
	8:28pm Robm: ↳ Robm @8:27 Derek sorry for misspelling your name
	8:31pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ Robm @8:28 I do like the name DJ Derkek though.
	8:31pm Aitch: Melbin
	8:31pm Tome: Exodus, Pantera, suicidal tendencies , my last crowded most experiences show was metal bonkers fun, but got way out of hand like ~ 1994 )
	8:31pm Robm: ↳ Your Pretend Boyfriend @8:31 Thanks
	8:32pm laurapanic: ↳ Scott_Oz @8:22 Nunchukka are so freaking great - have supported them a couple of times. Buddhadatta are here ina couple of weeks and I'll be trying to check them out.
	8:35pm Robm: @Babs unfortunately a lot of commercials on there
	🏝 8:35pm Kristine: the conny plank one was also on youtube!
	8:35pm laurapanic: Tubi has the Le Tigre doco. It is so good. Beware, some are very bad docos too, where they are B roll and a voiceover. Like a power point presentation. But many are great. I endorse Tubi! The Residents doco is on there....I'm speaking for the Australian Tubi platform. Which does not have as much cool stuff.
	8:36pm laurapanic: ↳ Robm @8:35 I don't find it is a lot of ads. Totally tolerable....less annoying than YouTube ads I reckon
	8:36pm Alli B: Hi everyone!
	8:36pm Mr Fab: I think Babs needs another show here for all her groovy lounge a-gogo talkover music. "Babs' Cocktail Hour." Who's with me?!
	8:37pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Your Pretend Boyfriend @8:31 I also like Derkek... Not a bad misspelling!
	8:37pm laurapanic: There is a fair bit of band member swapping, but no more than anywhere. What I find is that WFMU DJs find pockets of bands that may be closer to eachother, parts of the same scene. And its cool, it makes sense.
	8:37pm ultradamno: That goddamn goji commercial with that annoying "and you're feeling cute in your birthday suit" song has turned me against all vitamins and supplements forever. I have The Residents doc on Blu-Ray ("The Theory Of Obscurity"), it's pretty good.
	🏝 8:37pm Scott_Oz: G like Giraffe. Geelong.
	8:37pm Derek Westerholm: Hello Aitch! Hello AlliB!
	8:38pm Robm: ↳ laurapanic @8:36 You right, plus thy have some good tv shows

	🏝 8:40pm Kristine: this is fabulous!
	8:41pm DJ Babs: ↳ Mr Fab @8:36 Hello Hello Alli! Welcome welcome! Glad to have you with us!!
	8:41pm DJ Babs: ↳ Mr Fab @8:36 Mr Fab if I ever get to leave my day job I will do ALL the shows lol Also yes there's nothing more fun/scary than being in an accidental mosh pit and being pinballed about!! LOL
	8:41pm Alli B: Thank you! So happy to be here!
	8:42pm DJ Babs: YAAAAY! I am definitely in good spirits tonight!!!
	8:42pm Alli B: SMDS (shakin my damn shoulders) shimmy shimmy
	8:43pm DJ Babs: Shimmy shimmy! I've got my steps counter on I will fill you in on how many steps I pulled during this show LOLZ
	8:46pm DJ Babs: ohh I like this!!!!
	8:46pm Alli B: I’ll be starting my dancing very soon, too! I usually average 600 per song!
	8:47pm DJ Babs: lol does it still count if you're running in place with a glass of wine in your hand?
	8:47pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ DJ Babs @8:46 Me too!!!
	8:48pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Kamikaze (Feat. Jason Williamson)" by "Connie Con... wow!
	8:48pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ DJ Babs @8:47 It’s important to hydrate while you put in your steps.
	8:49pm Alli B: I always dance with a drink!
	8:49pm DJ Babs: Exactly! LOL. Derek has us on the HITT program. Bursts of high intensity with low movement breaks. I'm doing some Stevie Nicks swoops to this! Thank god this show is not video LOLZ
	8:50pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ laurapanic @8:48 Laura, right?
	8:50pm Alli B: I love doing the swoops!
	8:50pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Kristine @8:40 Kristine, the Witch? All the new stuff sounds great so far... Looking forward to hearing everything they do!
	🏝 8:51pm Kristine: @derek, yes the witch!
	8:51pm Your Pretend Boyfriend: ↳ DJ Babs @8:49 Move over Pilates…swoops are the new sheriff in town.
	8:54pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ DJ Babs @8:49 Didn't know I was playing all HITTs tonight.
	8:54pm DJ Babs: yuck yuck yuck!
	8:59pm Derek Westerholm: The guitar part here shifts this song into a new place altogether!
	8:59pm Derek Westerholm: Just even the smallest bit of chaos generally excites me.
	🏝 9:00pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi DJ Babs, Derek, and all!!!
	9:01pm Derek Westerholm: Hello Will Thee S G!
	9:01pm Derek Westerholm: How are you? What news? What goes on?
	9:02pm Alli B: Hahaha Derek!

	9:07pm ultradamno: Or the band □9
	9:09pm Tome: lovin' it Derek and BaBs keep it going !<>!
	9:15pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Inner Reaches III = 慾望的暗角三 (Zaliva-D Remix)" by "... Hmmm....so if you end a playlist title entry that includes non-english language characters with english, you can still have a clicky star?
	9:16pm Tome: great talk Derek )
	9:19pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Love Potion # 9" by "Sin Sisamouth" SINN!!!!
	9:19pm DJ Babs: Derek is very good at the talkings!
	🏝 9:19pm Kristine: yeah! this is great
	9:19pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Tome @9:16 Thanks Tome! ...Be careful encouraging me to be long-winded, though... haha.
	9:19pm DJ Babs: Hells yeah! This song has been living in my head all week!
	9:20pm Mr Fab: ooh, have they uncovered more Sin Sisamouth?
	9:20pm DJ Babs: Yes they have! It seems there are more reissues coming out! Now if only they could actually uncover him...poor guy things did not end well for him!
	9:20pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ ultradamno @9:15 Ultra, seems so... I would imagine clicky stars are enabled for most anything entered as a song, no?
	🏝 9:23pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:20 If there isn't a single recognizable letter the system wont recognize it to Star.
	9:23pm Mr Fab: man I am diggin this rock-xotica REAL hard.
	9:24pm ultradamno: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:20 As it's been explained to me, unicode reads non latin characters as an image and you don't get an accompanying clicky star with those titles.
	9:25pm DJ Babs: ↳ Mr Fab @9:23 So glad you are having fun Mr. Fab! It's so nice to have you with us in the chat this week! :-) Yes we are having lots of fun here too!!!
	9:25pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ ultradamno @9:24 Ah, as you can see, I have no idea about these things... Guess the power of III circumvented the logic.
	9:25pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Love Potion # 9" by "Sin Sisamouth" www.cambodianvintagemusicarchive.com...
	9:28pm DJ Babs: @MrFab Derek has a special treat planned for you in his set to be sure! ;-)
	9:29pm Mr Fab: ↳ DJ Babs @9:25 Mrs Fab is out of town, so I get to goof off in front of the computer all night, haha.
	9:29pm Mr Fab: ↳ DJ Babs @9:28 Ah, shucks! Heck, this SHOW is a treat!

	9:31pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Mr Fab @9:29 Mr. Fab, wonderful to have you in the room in your extra-muchly-available form... Tell us a story...!
	9:31pm DJ Babs: I'm at that part of my bottle of wine where I start to get maudlin but I cannot tell you HOW MUCH WE LOVE DOING THIS SHOW and HANGING WITH YOU ALL

	9:53pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Frightened" by "Dead Finks" Top 2 favorite Fall song for me, so I can't fault their taste in covers.
	9:53pm Mr Fab: ↳ DJ Babs @9:52 Haha, right on! I cranked it up as soon as it started.
	9:54pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Mr Fab @9:51 Mr. Fab, yes, I thought so, too... Also they have an EP called "Seven Deadly Sins", re-inverting the "Seven Deadly Finns" ref. Haha. thedeadfinks1.bandcamp.com...
	9:55pm v-dawg: Hey all. I am drinking white wine. I got a "eat your vegetables" anecdote. I ordered some healthy dinner the other night, pre-made lentil patty with vegetable sides (cabbage, carrots, zucchini). I ate the cold patty, but i do not really like those vegetable much (especially raw!). I did not want to waste them so i brought them house. However, i did not know how to cook them. So i said to myself, "White wine and butter usually works". So I bought a bottle of a white California blend. I added the wine, the last of the Italian butter, and spices, cooked the vegetables. Yes, my left over vegetables with left over pasta tasted palatable. I do not care that it is 40°F degrees out. I am gonna have another glass because it tastes good.
	9:57pm laurapanic: our weekly Fall (or fall adjacent) offering
	9:57pm Mr Fab: So wait..this band is NOT Extricate? There are TWO bands out there feat. former Fall folk?
