The Radio Is Broken is a three-hour spelunk through the canyons and fissures of humanity's collective unconscious. It sounds as if a field recording of the Culture Industry were a sonic juggernaut barreling down a rickety track—except that tunnel ahead is just painted onto a sheer cliff wall. With occasional forays into what might pass for "normal" music. Prerequisite journey: Cratedigger's Lung

Released July 6 Bandcamp link "Formica Obscuripes, more commonly known as Western Thatching Ants, are very common in the Northwest of North America. While I was on Vashon Island in Washington state, I found a gigantic anthill that stood nearly 5ft tall. Thousands of ants built this hill with their relentless hard work. I took two piezo contact mics and placed them on the top of the hill with a hard left/right pan to a recorder. I hit record and captured these mighty ants crawling and scratching my microphones. (...) ...This recording is "as-is" without any mastering or effects." |

He was a propagandist, and he knew as much, but he wanted to believe his work was honorable. Yet it was not.
"Feed the troll"...I'm a troll? I am a contrarion, but not (intentionally) a troll. I wish folks wouldn't automatically assume that their views of the world were accurate.

from my Imaginary Sound Events of 2018:
Termite Mound Sounds Termitology (Subterranean 2018)
Termite mounds are actually the junk heaps of dirt the industrious bugs haul out of the ground while digging their cities. Millions of tiny legs and feelers are involved, and movement makes sound. Termites make a tapping noise when agitated, so our intrepid researchers at Termitology agitated some termites to come up with these rhythm tracks.

- I recall when that 1st The Work album arrived- it was an aural eyewash. Yea, Zappa (fer sure).
Has me wanting to revisit that early Copernicus album. & Unrest Work & Play recordings.
The scary thing - the worse it gets, the more it’s starting to grow on me …. 😛
