	👻 9:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:15 Under very controlled circumstances, I might be able to land a good line. But usually I just appologize in advance.

	👻 9:21pm Austin Rich: Stop robbing those liquor stores? P'shaw. Who does she think I am?
	9:22pm Imaginos: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:20 Doing pretty well. Wrote a song (lyrics) and did some drawing
	👻 9:22pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Erotic Neurotic" by "The Saints" On more than one occasion, I have said this is the greatest rock and roll song ever recorded. That might be true. It feels true.

	👻 9:22pm Austin Rich: ↳ Aitch @9:22 FULL VOLUME
	9:24pm Aitch: ↳ Austin Rich @9:22 Know your product!
	9:25pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Austin Rich @9:16 i think control is the worst thing for me! ...when i don't really care, or am resigned to being unavailable, and just talking like i would to anyone; or best yet if i'm not at all attracted to the person - that's when it turns to gold. well, copper. but i like copper.

	9:34pm Imaginos: ↳ Aitch @9:24 Know Future
	👻 9:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:34 We need to make "Know Future" t-shirts.
	9:36pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:35 That would be a great idea
	9:38pm Imaginos: Someone should do a punk version of Don't Bring Lulu
	👻 9:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Bad Girl" by "Arsenik" As a young man, I would always get crushes on all the heavy metal hotties who were never, EVER good for me.
	9:41pm Aitch: On the verge of seeing a long-lost love. It's been 8 years since last catch-up and I blew it that time. Mixture of anticipation and utter terror.
	9:42pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:38 In my youth I had a crush on Druuna.
	👻 9:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ Aitch @9:41 Oh, damn. Yeah, that's gotta be a mix of all sorts of feelings. Good luck with that! I have blown so many last encounters, and it's nice to get a chance to do things right.
	👻 9:43pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:42 Yeah. I totally get that crush.
	9:44pm postconsumer: very peculiar
	👻 9:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ postconsumer @9:44 I'm into those peculiar girls.
	9:46pm postconsumer: I wish Krys was still here to tell us more stories
	👻 9:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Cover Girl" by "Cheap 'n' Nasty" "Cheap 'n' Nasty" is such a great name for a punk band. It sounds like it's made up for a movie or comic book, but it's real!
	👻 9:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ postconsumer @9:46 Yeah. She needs a show where she just sits around and tells stories from her past.
	9:48pm Imaginos: Austin did you get the lyrics I sent
	👻 9:48pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:48 I saw those, yes!
	9:48pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Aitch @9:41 i understand that excitement/terror...but on the other hand occasionally feel a tinge of terror upon the acknowledgement that i'll very likely never see a particular person (most people) again.
	👻 9:50pm Austin Rich: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:48 Yeah. That one is very hard. I'm still trying to sort that one out.
	9:52pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:48 Any thoughts on improvement?
	9:52pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Austin Rich @9:45 or at the very least a little off-centre! ...and occasionally been disappointed upon getting to know someone better how contrived their peculiarity was!
	👻 9:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:52 Not really. Lyrics are often pretty personal. They seemed good to me.
	9:53pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:53 Thank you
	9:54pm Imaginos: We need Hobbit punk
	👻 9:55pm Austin Rich: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:52 Yeah, that can be the case with a lot of folks. I try to be as genuine as possible, but sometimes I sound like some sort of contrived Gen-Xer.
	👻 9:55pm ramencity: ↳ Imaginos @9:54 sandworm ska...
	👻 9:55pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:54 I wonder if that exists? I found some Blakes 7 folk songs. It's possible...
	👻 9:56pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @9:55 We need to write those songs!
	👻 9:56pm ramencity: ↳ ramencity @9:55 Timelord tangos. "Is this in 3/4 time?" "It's OUTSIDE OF TIME."
	👻 9:57pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @9:56 Planetary Punk!
	9:58pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:55 Not punk but there is Hobbit rock. youtu.be...
	10:00pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:56 It could be done with the words of the Litany Against Fear and the Mentat Mantra
	10:03pm postconsumer: ↳ Austin Rich @9:47 yes, you're still trippin me out
	👻 10:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @10:00 Totally! I was working on an essay about Dune Part Two earlier today. I quite enjoyed it! (Minus some small nits that I pick...)
	👻 10:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Love Comes In Spurts" by "Richard Hell & The Void... Richard Hell has also written some of the greatest rock songs of all time. That guy rules.
	👻 10:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Post-War Glamour Girl" by "John Cooper Clarke" This seems like it might be a bit of a jab at disco.
	10:15pm Imaginos: Susie really has a lot of people singing about her
	👻 10:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @10:15 She's fairly popular, as I understand it. All that running around.
	10:16pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @10:15 Though she apparently will soon be married and wants to know where winds come from
	👻 10:17pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Magazine Girl" by "Rousers" I'm a sucker for hand claps.
	10:18pm Imaginos: ↳ Imaginos @10:16 Mind you things ended tragically when she met that excitable boy
	👻 10:20pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "She's a Worky Ticket" by "Toy Dolls" Everyone loves the Toy Dolls, right?
	10:22pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Imaginos @10:18 Suzy's headbangin' days are over
	👻 10:29pm ramencity: (predictable comment from me, but) There is a Half Man Half Biscuit song called "Joyce"
	👻 10:31pm Heather: Ana Ng!
	👻 10:32pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Sex Beat" by "The Gun Club" I recall one of the few times that the record store clerk ever complimented something I bought, it was this Gun Club album. "You bought the best album in the store."
	👻 10:32pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather @10:31 But of course!
	👻 10:33pm Heather: ↳ Austin Rich @10:32 There may be more. Racking my brain now!
	👻 10:33pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Sex Beat" by "The Gun Club" Kid Congo Powers has a biography out, where he talks about his time in The Gun Club, among other things. I need to get that book!
	👻 10:34pm ramencity: ↳ Austin Rich @10:32 My favorite record-shop employee comment was (me with a stack of ... I think Sun Ra, Alice Coltrane, and Eric B. and Rakim): "Yo! This pile's got JUICE!"
	10:35pm Imaginos: Just sent a short list. Also Don't Bring Lulu is one
	👻 10:35pm ramencity: ↳ Imaginos @10:35 aww yiss - let's make this happen!
	👻 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @10:34 "This pile's got JUICE!" That's amazing!
	👻 10:36pm ramencity: "Karen" by the Go-Betweens...
	👻 10:37pm Austin Rich: Robert at House of Records saw me buy Double Nickels, Nation of Ulysses and Generic Flipper, and said, "You're gonna have a good afternoon." Those are the only two times the clerks ever complemented my purchases.
	10:37pm postconsumer: So what's the secret, Max?
	👻 10:42pm Austin Rich: This is the blog that hosts the "Once Upon A Time" compilation series, a 100 disc set of "punk singles" sorted by region, and presented chronologically. (Or, as best as possible, in some cases.) disorderareyouexperienced.blogspot.com
	👻 10:43pm Austin Rich: (There's also a lot of other stuff on that blog, but the stuff I'm playing tonight is explicitly from that series.)
	👻 10:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Redhead" by "Plebs" I am a sucker for a redhead.
	10:45pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @10:44 Even Grill Sutcliffe?
	👻 10:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @10:45 I'm not familiar.
	10:46pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @10:45 Look up Black Butler
	10:48pm Imaginos: images.app.goo.gl...
	10:49pm Imaginos: Grell
	10:51pm Imaginos: Good show tonight
	10:52pm Imaginos: Do you remember Rhythm Box?
	10:54pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Austi Rich! 'night all
	10:55pm Imaginos: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:54 Night
	👻 10:59pm Austin Rich: Good Night everyone! Have a great night, and I hope you all get really great dates! Or, not, if that's how you roll. You do you!
	11:00pm postconsumer: Austin, I've been listening closely tonight and coming to a better understanding. Radio. wow. Goodnight!

Mid-Valley Mutations with Austin Rich: Playlist from April 23, 2024

View austinrich's profile

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.

	👻 9:43pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:42 Yeah. I totally get that crush.
	9:44pm postconsumer: very peculiar
	👻 9:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ postconsumer @9:44 I'm into those peculiar girls.
	9:46pm postconsumer: I wish Krys was still here to tell us more stories
	👻 9:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Cover Girl" by "Cheap 'n' Nasty" "Cheap 'n' Nasty" is such a great name for a punk band. It sounds like it's made up for a movie or comic book, but it's real!
	👻 9:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ postconsumer @9:46 Yeah. She needs a show where she just sits around and tells stories from her past.
	9:48pm Imaginos: Austin did you get the lyrics I sent
	👻 9:48pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:48 I saw those, yes!
	9:48pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Aitch @9:41 i understand that excitement/terror...but on the other hand occasionally feel a tinge of terror upon the acknowledgement that i'll very likely never see a particular person (most people) again.
	👻 9:50pm Austin Rich: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:48 Yeah. That one is very hard. I'm still trying to sort that one out.
	9:52pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:48 Any thoughts on improvement?
	9:52pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Austin Rich @9:45 or at the very least a little off-centre! ...and occasionally been disappointed upon getting to know someone better how contrived their peculiarity was!
	👻 9:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:52 Not really. Lyrics are often pretty personal. They seemed good to me.
	9:53pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:53 Thank you
	9:54pm Imaginos: We need Hobbit punk
	👻 9:55pm Austin Rich: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:52 Yeah, that can be the case with a lot of folks. I try to be as genuine as possible, but sometimes I sound like some sort of contrived Gen-Xer.
	👻 9:55pm ramencity: ↳ Imaginos @9:54 sandworm ska...
	👻 9:55pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:54 I wonder if that exists? I found some Blakes 7 folk songs. It's possible...
	👻 9:56pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @9:55 We need to write those songs!
	👻 9:56pm ramencity: ↳ ramencity @9:55 Timelord tangos. "Is this in 3/4 time?" "It's OUTSIDE OF TIME."
	👻 9:57pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @9:56 Planetary Punk!
	9:58pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:55 Not punk but there is Hobbit rock. youtu.be...
	10:00pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:56 It could be done with the words of the Litany Against Fear and the Mentat Mantra
	10:03pm postconsumer: ↳ Austin Rich @9:47 yes, you're still trippin me out
	👻 10:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @10:00 Totally! I was working on an essay about Dune Part Two earlier today. I quite enjoyed it! (Minus some small nits that I pick...)
	👻 10:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Love Comes In Spurts" by "Richard Hell & The Void... Richard Hell has also written some of the greatest rock songs of all time. That guy rules.
	👻 10:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Post-War Glamour Girl" by "John Cooper Clarke" This seems like it might be a bit of a jab at disco.
	10:15pm Imaginos: Susie really has a lot of people singing about her
	👻 10:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @10:15 She's fairly popular, as I understand it. All that running around.
	10:16pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @10:15 Though she apparently will soon be married and wants to know where winds come from
	👻 10:17pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Magazine Girl" by "Rousers" I'm a sucker for hand claps.
	10:18pm Imaginos: ↳ Imaginos @10:16 Mind you things ended tragically when she met that excitable boy
	👻 10:20pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "She's a Worky Ticket" by "Toy Dolls" Everyone loves the Toy Dolls, right?
	10:22pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Imaginos @10:18 Suzy's headbangin' days are over
	👻 10:29pm ramencity: (predictable comment from me, but) There is a Half Man Half Biscuit song called "Joyce"
	👻 10:31pm Heather: Ana Ng!
	👻 10:32pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Sex Beat" by "The Gun Club" I recall one of the few times that the record store clerk ever complimented something I bought, it was this Gun Club album. "You bought the best album in the store."
	👻 10:32pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather @10:31 But of course!
	👻 10:33pm Heather: ↳ Austin Rich @10:32 There may be more. Racking my brain now!
	👻 10:33pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Sex Beat" by "The Gun Club" Kid Congo Powers has a biography out, where he talks about his time in The Gun Club, among other things. I need to get that book!
	👻 10:34pm ramencity: ↳ Austin Rich @10:32 My favorite record-shop employee comment was (me with a stack of ... I think Sun Ra, Alice Coltrane, and Eric B. and Rakim): "Yo! This pile's got JUICE!"
	10:35pm Imaginos: Just sent a short list. Also Don't Bring Lulu is one
	👻 10:35pm ramencity: ↳ Imaginos @10:35 aww yiss - let's make this happen!
	👻 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @10:34 "This pile's got JUICE!" That's amazing!
	👻 10:36pm ramencity: "Karen" by the Go-Betweens...
	👻 10:37pm Austin Rich: Robert at House of Records saw me buy Double Nickels, Nation of Ulysses and Generic Flipper, and said, "You're gonna have a good afternoon." Those are the only two times the clerks ever complemented my purchases.
	10:37pm postconsumer: So what's the secret, Max?
	👻 10:42pm Austin Rich: This is the blog that hosts the "Once Upon A Time" compilation series, a 100 disc set of "punk singles" sorted by region, and presented chronologically. (Or, as best as possible, in some cases.) disorderareyouexperienced.blogspot.com
	👻 10:43pm Austin Rich: (There's also a lot of other stuff on that blog, but the stuff I'm playing tonight is explicitly from that series.)
	👻 10:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Redhead" by "Plebs" I am a sucker for a redhead.
	10:45pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @10:44 Even Grill Sutcliffe?
	👻 10:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @10:45 I'm not familiar.
	10:46pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @10:45 Look up Black Butler
	10:48pm Imaginos: images.app.goo.gl...
	10:49pm Imaginos: Grell
	10:51pm Imaginos: Good show tonight
	10:52pm Imaginos: Do you remember Rhythm Box?
	10:54pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Austi Rich! 'night all
	10:55pm Imaginos: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:54 Night
	👻 10:59pm Austin Rich: Good Night everyone! Have a great night, and I hope you all get really great dates! Or, not, if that's how you roll. You do you!
	11:00pm postconsumer: Austin, I've been listening closely tonight and coming to a better understanding. Radio. wow. Goodnight!
