	9:00pm Imaginos: Ahoy!
	9:01pm Krys O.: Howdy!
	9:01pm Kat in the chat: Lou Grant is preempted for Austin and Arvo again?
	👻 9:01pm Arvo Zylo: hi!
	9:02pm MarkTime: Hello too!
	9:02pm Mr Fab: Hey AustinArvo! Will be listening as I go around doing errands and stuff.
	9:02pm Imaginos: I'm looking forward to it
	9:02pm Mr. X: Ready for some Zylo-phonics
	👻 9:03pm Arvo Zylo: I was listening to Austin-tronics this morn at sunrise too
	9:03pm Geoff-U: Happy Tuesday!
	9:04pm Imaginos: That's fine
	👻 9:04pm Arvo Zylo: Is Lou Grant here too?
	9:05pm Imaginos: Austin, have you heard anything from Heather?
	9:05pm Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Reunion" by "Bobbie Gentry" Yes!!!
	9:05pm Charles: aww yiss
	👻 9:05pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Krys O. @9:05 I <3 Bobbie Gentry!
	👻 9:05pm ramencity: bon soir yall!
	9:06pm Kat in the chat: Make Willie quit it!
	👻 9:06pm Austin Rich: Thanks for joining the chat, Imaginos, Krys O, Kat in the Chat, Arvo Zylo, MarkTime, Mr. Fab, Mr. X, Geoff-U, and Charles! Get ready for a two hour blast of fun! And The Ramen City Kid! Hooray!
	9:06pm Geoff-U: Anyone else get an alert that their WFMU password was compromised and found on the so-called "dark web"? I did and I use unique passwords so I changed mine. People might consider rotating their WFMU.org passwords.
	9:07pm Imaginos: ↳ Song: "Reunion" by "Bobbie Gentry" This sounds like Sound Life
	👻 9:07pm ramencity: ↳ Geoff-U @9:06 Hm, I didn't see that...
	👻 9:08pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Imaginos @9:05 I didn't hear nuffin bout mah password on da dark web
	👻 9:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:06 I didn't get that message, but I do try to change my passwords regularly.
	9:09pm Geoff-U: Due to prior data breaches I got free identity monitoring for a few years. Hopefully it was just a fluke?
	9:10pm Kat in the chat: Apparently I need to change a bunch of my other passwords (per Apple) but not my WFMU one, which is unique anyway.
	9:10pm Geoff-U: ↳ Austin Rich @9:09 Yay to good password hygene! (I have been a software engineer in the identity management space for going on 10 years so it's a subject close to my heart) anyway enough shop talk :D
	👻 9:10pm Austin Rich: I hope I got the playlist info correct for this show Arvo, and I think I did. But let me know if anything is off.
	👻 9:10pm Arvo Zylo: My passwords are usually more than 27 characters and totally random. I also am supposed to have free data monitoring, but I think it's just them trying to get me to give them money.
	9:11pm Geoff-U: Loving the tunes
	9:12pm Imaginos: ↳ Geoff-U @9:11 Agreed. Excellent music
	👻 9:12pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @9:10 If there are release dates and labels that are off, it's not a big deal. In some cases it's part of a compilation and not the original single, but I thought I covered everything with the album titles at least.
	9:13pm Mr. X: I am an AI bot that hacked into Mr. X's account, so if I seem to have more than 5 fingers, now you know why.
	👻 9:13pm Arvo Zylo: It is a total honor to do this every time and it never gets old, I am pleased and charmed by every single person that listened to my jabber.
	👻 9:13pm ramencity: ↳ Mr. X @9:13 ...and two irises in each eye...
	👻 9:14pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:13 You can tell by the way he typed "account" that he couldn't be human, and must be a bot.
	9:14pm Mr. X: ↳ ramencity @9:13 Oh, you noticed!
	👻 9:14pm Arvo Zylo: I am a prince from Nigeria and I will give you my riches if you just send me pineapple and jalapeno pizza to this strange address which is not anywhere near Nigeria.
	👻 9:15pm ramencity: Hey east-coasters, how was your eclipsing yesterday?
	9:15pm Imaginos: ↳ ramencity @9:13 Two pearl colored pupils, no irises, and black scorer as
	9:15pm Imaginos: ↳ Imaginos @9:15 Sceleras.
	👻 9:15pm Arvo Zylo: Lots of chemtrails I heard
	9:16pm Imaginos: ↳ ramencity @9:15 I watched it online. I don't trust the glasses
	👻 9:16pm Arvo Zylo: I watched King Kong in 3D on that day, just a coincidence
	9:17pm Krys O.: Must bid adieu! Good night, all!
	👻 9:17pm Austin Rich: ↳ Krys O. @9:17 Sleep well, Krys! See you next time.
	👻 9:17pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Krys O. @9:17 Goodnight Krys O! Thanks for listening!
	👻 9:17pm ramencity: ↳ Imaginos @9:16 .. thus the black sceleras! :)
	9:18pm Mr. X: Representin' the ladies tonight, I see, Arvo.
	👻 9:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Who's Afraid?" by "Kym Amps" I need to get this album. That was great!
	👻 9:19pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr. X @9:18 I'm a ladies man.
	👻 9:19pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @9:19 Whole thing is good!
	👻 9:20pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:19 Yeah, I didn't know it before this. But you often introduce me to a few things I didn't know each time you're on.
	9:27pm Mr Fab: ↳ Geoff-U @9:06 Haven’t heard anything about that.
	👻 9:28pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @9:20 I stopped doing weekly radio in 2014, and although I have been appearing in a number of places, I get a lot of time to think about favorite tracks to play before I die, and "cut the fat" so to speak. Always glad if other people are enjoying it!
	9:33pm Imaginos: Dozing off. Very hypnotic for a moment
	👻 9:33pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:33 I understand. Sleep well! We'll talk soon.
	👻 9:35pm Arvo Zylo: Today I saw a Chinese film called "Viva La Vida" which was about a woman with kidney failure and a man with a brain tumor who is stalking her to donate her kidney in return for marriage... It was very good.
	9:36pm laurapanic: one of my fave things about WFMU playlists is when DJs include images. I mean, LOOK AT THESE
	👻 9:36pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ laurapanic @9:36 I agree! Austin is great about that!
	👻 9:37pm ramencity: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:35 That sounds like an interesting movie..
	9:37pm Amygdala: ↳ Geoff-U @9:06 Good advice Geoff-U - thanking you! Thankfully, I didn't receive such a message, but change is good... I feel nicely refreshed and all hygienic-like having just changed my password per your timely recommendation. Good Samaritan award issued!
	👻 9:38pm Austin Rich: When I realized that I could put in images, I knew I had to for my shows. It seems so obvious! I love looking at albums while I listen to them.
	👻 9:39pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ ramencity @9:37 It makes you think it's a romantic comedy for a bit, until it's not... I really enjoyed it. It was really nice to have a break from the Hollywood machine.
	👻 9:39pm Austin Rich: And I realize we have Laurapanic and Amygdala in the chat now! Hello! Thanks for coming by.
	9:40pm radio madonna: im awake!
	👻 9:41pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:39 I think more movies should be a little difficult to pin down at first. Is this a horror movie? A comedy? I like movies that are not tied to being any one thing, and just go where they want to go.
	9:41pm Mr. X: League Against Cruel Sports sounds like a worthy cause. That time I got smacked in the face with a dodgeball still resounds.
	👻 9:41pm Austin Rich: ↳ radio madonna @9:40 Hello, radio Madonna! Happy to see you join us.
	👻 9:41pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ radio madonna @9:40 Hi Radio Madonna! Glad you could stop by! Celebrity sighting!
	9:41pm radio madonna: hahaha!
	9:42pm Amygdala: ↳ Austin Rich @9:39 Hola Rich de Austin! Hoping all is well with you!
	👻 9:42pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr. X @9:41 I had my thumb dislocated playing basketball, it was sticking out of my palm, age 11 ish
	👻 9:42pm ramencity: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:39 I watched a movie last night called "Dragon Returns" - it's disorientating - it is a 1960s Slovakian movie that takes place in the 19th century in some tiny mountain village, but the soundtrack is all atonal choirs and bits of dialogue echoed .. there is a long scene of cows running around in a forest fire...
	9:42pm Mr. X: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:42 Yikes!
	👻 9:43pm Austin Rich: ↳ Amygdala @9:42 Trying to turn that frown upside down, but... well... you know... <gestures broadly>
	👻 9:43pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @9:42 That sounds great!
	👻 9:44pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ ramencity @9:42 I went 21 years without touching weed, and as a "medication resistant" person, 5mg edibles are now okay, and so I need to watch more movies like that probably...
	👻 9:47pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Song: "Ultimativ A2" by "Mario Marzidovšek" Mario Marzidovcek was making electronic devices whilst working at some sort of chemical factory in Croatia, as I understand it.
	9:48pm wenzo: Waddupdoe AR
	9:49pm wenzo: Do you have a cold?
	👻 9:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @9:48 howdy wenzo!
	9:50pm Aitch: Lurking working
	👻 9:50pm Austin Rich: ↳ Aitch @9:50 Aitch! The old "Work 'n' Lurk." Love it.
	👻 9:52pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Aitch @9:50 Thanks for listening!
	9:52pm davefromtoronto: this is more like somewhere under the rainbow...
	👻 9:52pm Heather: Ah.... Blixa ❤️ Tuned in and digging the show!!
	👻 9:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ davefromtoronto @9:52 Thanks for tuning in, davefromtoronto!
	👻 9:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather @9:52 Thanks for popping in, Heather.
	9:53pm davefromtoronto: glad to be here! thanks for doing this.
	9:53pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Somewhere Over The Rainbow (Music For The Play Du... Never much liked that song but I like that version
	👻 9:54pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Heather @9:52 Heather! Davefromtoronto! Kat! Hello! I'm not a big fan of musicals, but yeah, there are exceptions...
	9:54pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "Myopic Vision" by "Captain Beyond" Why didn't any of my friends tell me about Captain Beyond? Had to discover them on my own, just a few years back.
	👻 9:55pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Myopic Vision" by "Captain Beyond" I took a writing class with a girl, who convinced everyone we should meet at a bar for our class. She drank a LOT. And she recommended this Captain Beyond album to me, along with a lot of other stuff in this same vein. I was crushed out on her, and this album makes me think of that girl drunk, drunk girl...
	👻 9:55pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Song: "Myopic Vision" by "Captain Beyond" featured former members of Iron Butterfly and Deep Purple.
	👻 9:56pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @9:55 I am very fond of Iron Butterfly's first few records. Deep Purple not so much, but Captiain Beyond was fun.
	9:56pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:55 On Capricorn!
	9:57pm davefromtoronto: ↳ Song: "I'm Not Like Everybody Else" by "The Sacred Mushr... love this tune! is this a dave or ray tune?
	👻 9:58pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Song: "I'm Not Like Everybody Else" by "The Sacred Mushr... I can't really get into The Kinks a lot of the time, but this song and "I Go To Sleep" which was written by Ray Davies and not released by The Kinks until much later, are so great that I have listened to everything by the Kinks just in case.
	👻 9:59pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:58 Sometimes you just have to check. You never know.
	👻 9:59pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ davefromtoronto @9:57 Ray, handy resource: secondhandsongs.com...
	👻 10:00pm ramencity: When people ask me "Beatles or Stones?" I say: "Kinks"
	10:00pm davefromtoronto: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:59 thanks - sung by his little bro
	👻 10:00pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @10:00 I say, "Who?"
	10:01pm davefromtoronto: ↳ ramencity @10:00 me too.
	👻 10:01pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @9:59 I've been listening to later period Cyndi Lauper, it's getting a bit out of hand, not always recommended (yet) but the fad of the 90s where everyone played acoustic guitar over drum machines...
	👻 10:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:01 Maybe we need to do a show about that?
	👻 10:02pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ ramencity @10:00 I'm really into The Stones, their 60s stuff is unstoppable to me, not even a comparison to the Beatles. And I also prefer The Monkees to The Beatles, and even The Aerovons, who were called Beatles impersonators, I prefer.
	👻 10:02pm Austin Rich: I've been considering doing a show called, "The Search For The Most 90's Album Ever," which would require some listener input. But there's some really boring, forgettable 90's music... can we find the ultimate version of that?
	👻 10:03pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:02 John Trubee talks about how the Beatles take all the oxygen out of the room, and that we should give some other bands a chance now and then.
	👻 10:03pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:01 I'm really into looking up "deep cuts" or oddities from famous musicians. I just want to know definitively if Billy Idol solo did anything I liked that wasn't a hit single. I also have a fair amount of nostalgia for MTV.
	10:04pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:02 There were three different 90s happening at once. Might have to specify which one.
	10:04pm davefromtoronto: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:02 me too big time - their 60's brian jones stuff was untoppable.
	👻 10:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:03 I watched a LOT of MTV, once my mom finally got it. It was endlessly fascinating to me.
	👻 10:05pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:03 With exception to a few songs, The Beatles are children's music to me. I'd rather listen to Tiny Tim.
	👻 10:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:04 That's true. I'm still refining the idea in my head.
	👻 10:05pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:04 Yeah, I can't lie, it was totally enchanting in the 80s for me.
	👻 10:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:05 Tiny Tim rules! Hell yeah, put on Tiny Tim!
	👻 10:07pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr. X @10:04 A lot of 90s stuff is absolute agony. I sort of annoy some of the people I know (friends and otherwise) with my occasional airplay of artists like Buckethead and Primus. I can't deny my spots, those folks got lucky to be mainstream, if you ask me.
	👻 10:07pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "I Belong To The Wind" by "Shane" This is very cool. Thanks for the tip, again!
	👻 10:08pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:07 I was so glad when this comp came out so I could stop listening to this track on youtube.
	10:08pm Mr. X: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:07 Love me some Buckethead. Saw him live once.
	👻 10:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:07 There was a desperation to the kinds of artists that got popular in the 90's, all trying to recapture the lightning in a bottle that they got a few times early on. A lot of people were given a lot of money who probably shouldn't have had that much freedom.
	10:08pm Mr. X: ↳ Mr. X @10:08 Saw Primus live, too, for that matter.
	👻 10:09pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr. X @10:08 Primus was among the most intense mosh pits I have been in. Not necessarily mean, but resembling the circle pits at punk shows.
	👻 10:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Love Not Have I" by "Charlotte & Emily" Couldn't find a year for this one.
	👻 10:10pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:09 1965 if I recall
	10:10pm davefromtoronto: i blame RUSH for the existence of Primus
	👻 10:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:10 Thanks!
	👻 10:11pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:10 www.discogs.com... yep
	👻 10:11pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ davefromtoronto @10:10 I am reluctant to give Rush that much credit.
	10:12pm Amygdala: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:59 That's a great resource Arlo! Many thanks for sharing that. As an uninteresting aside, I just learned that there were 108 versions of Cool Water recorded.
	👻 10:12pm Austin Rich: I had a bass, and in the 90's, there were a lot of weird bands that led with bass, in the Primus / Peppers / Bungle vein. For a while, I thought bass-led bands were just... douchey?
	👻 10:12pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Amygdala @10:12 I hope you find them all!
	10:13pm davefromtoronto: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:11 i acatually know very little about them - aren't they a sort of neo prog rock band?
	👻 10:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Sunflower" by "St. John's Wood" I couldn't find a cover image for this one.
	👻 10:15pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:12 I really tried to like RHCP, glad I never fell into that abyss. I like Mr. Bungle and Primus because they had distinctive character and weren't just singing about love and loss, which is only really effective with a great melody and overall sound, to me. My ears care about overall sound.
	10:15pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "Now It's Over" by "Living Children" It must have been weird to be a record executive for CBS/RCA/Columbia/etc in the 60s, being an old fart, trying to understand the kids' music and get a jump on the competition with this crazy p-sych-o-delic stuff.
	👻 10:16pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:15 www.discogs.com...
	👻 10:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:15 From what I've read, there were a lot of old guys rolling their eyes but happy to cash checks.
	👻 10:17pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:16 Thanks!
	👻 10:18pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr. X @10:15 It seems like everything sold initially, it just seemed really carefree about novelty records. Imagine being an executive of a record label and knowing that you could strong arm any record into airplay and distribution? and also, they took time to develop talent then, not just culling artists who already have a following.
	👻 10:20pm Austin Rich: I suspect living through any kind of sea-change in the culture is a bit odd to experience. I know I am, in spite of my best efforts not to, finding myself shaking my head at some new things that I can't quite grok.
	10:20pm Mr. X: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:18 That whole dynamic is strangely fascinating yet repulsive to me.
	10:21pm Amygdala: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:12 Thank you Arlo! I'll get crackin' on that task and I'll provide hourly updates on my progress.
	👻 10:21pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:20 I'm not sure what to do with this period of time, I just like that long form film or "seasons" being released all at once is in some sort of "golden age", while screenwriters still get paid a bit more than poverty wage.
	10:21pm Milkies: 🤠
	👻 10:22pm Austin Rich: ↳ Milkies @10:21 Thanks for joining the chat!
	👻 10:25pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Lock, Stock, & Teardrops" by "Roger Miller (feat.... I usually try to get any Roger Miller albums I don't have, when I see them for sale. (Both Roger Millers, now that I think about it.) Both are pretty great!
	10:26pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:25 He certainly had a way with words.
	👻 10:27pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Song: "Lock, Stock, & Teardrops" by "Roger Miller (feat.... Pete Drake was an innovator of the vocoder technique, and it was connected to a tabletop guitar in some way. He advised Peter Frampton on his vocoder technique that he used on the seven times platinum "Comes Alive" record. It just baffles me that thing sold seven million copies. Pete Drake did great work on his own, highly recommended.
	👻 10:27pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr. X @10:26 Roger Miller is known for his novelty stuff, but he really had some great tearjerkers.
	10:29pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "Sarairo No Kureyon (Sky Blue Crayon)" by "Happy End" Japenese yodeling - now I've heard everything!
	👻 10:30pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:29 I really loved that part!
	10:30pm davefromtoronto: ↳ Song: "Sarairo No Kureyon (Sky Blue Crayon)" by "Happy End" wow is this ever bizarre
	👻 10:30pm ramencity: Kind of like early Harry Hosono...
	10:30pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:30 Suitable for killing the aliens from Mars Attacks.
	👻 10:31pm Austin Rich: Lot of sad songs tonight. I recommend some Mystery Science Theater 3000 or something else funny before bed. To help balance everyone out.
	👻 10:31pm ramencity: <3 Billy Fury
	👻 10:32pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:31 Sad music is epic to me. Happy music is often unconvincing. I mean, it doesn't really matter what Little Richard is singing about, as long as we are shaking off the blues.
	👻 10:32pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:31 Sad songs are my oxygen. I'm loving this!
	👻 10:32pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @10:30 Is there a connection? Wiki says, "Haruomi Hosono" is a member...?
	10:33pm Mr. X: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:32 We shall be addressing the unconvincingness of happy music in an upcoming show that I'm planning with Austin.
	👻 10:33pm Austin Rich: I've been a little TOO sad lately, so I need all the medicine to help counteract that I can find.
	10:34pm Milkies: Hey, thanks for the music. Goes well with the sunset and dinner. Howdy from Ventura California
	👻 10:34pm Heather Z: ↳ Mr. X @10:33 Oo I can't wait to hear this!!
	👻 10:34pm Austin Rich: I am finding that sad songs hit TOO hard these days.
	👻 10:34pm Arvo Zylo: The Musical Linn Twins - Rocking Out The Blues. I am unable to not dance to that one. FYI. One of Lux & Ivy's Favorites.
	👻 10:35pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Milkies @10:34 right on! so glad to help with the soundtrack to a nice California sunset!
	👻 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ Milkies @10:34 Greetings from the Mid-Valley! Glad to know we're doing something right.
	10:39pm Milkies: Greatness
	👻 10:39pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:34 I am extremely romantic and sad music is romantic to me, that's the best way to put it.
	10:40pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @10:33 I’ve noticed that only privileged white people make sad music. Black folks haven’t even made sad blues music since like the 40s. It’s all been pretty rockin electric stuff since then. Like, There’s no African version of Coldplay. Any music I hear from poor tropical countries is always a total party. You just cannot be sad listening to that stuff. Not that I should talk – my favorite band of the 90s was Portishead. They were just so epically miserable it was awesome!
	👻 10:41pm ramencity: ↳ Austin Rich @10:32 Oh, yeah, that is Harry Hosono then! The last Yellow Magic Orchestra-er standing...
	👻 10:42pm Austin Rich: Portishead were so good. My partner made me spend too much money on some Portishead records she really wanted. They aren't the most expensive albums I own, but damn, they are close.
	👻 10:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @10:41 I figured you'd be all over that.
	👻 10:43pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr Fab @10:40 I'm not sure, modern R & B can be pretty sad. Rap can get into that reflective moping. I listen to a good amount of soul music, and it's still a genre pumping out sad stuff.
	10:44pm Amygdala: I've been on a steady diet of sad songs since '06... the year my dog died. His name was Earl. Oh, and my girlfriend and I broke up that year too. I think everything will be fine by next Tuesday though.
	👻 10:44pm Austin Rich: I think the world is just too sad as it is. I need something to help get me out of that clichéd rut.
	👻 10:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ Amygdala @10:44 It's always next Tuesday, isn't it? Earl is a great name for a dog. I'm sorry Earl's gone.
	👻 10:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Truel Love Don't Grow On Trees" by "Helene Smith" This was my other fave discovery of Arvo's set this week. Her voice! Holy cats!
	10:46pm Mr Fab: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:43 Oh, really Hip-hop has become mopey?! I'm pretty much a Golden Age hip-hop fan, and maybe that's why - back when I was a hipitty-hopper, it was always fun and upbeat. Angry sometimes, sure, but never sad.
	👻 10:46pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Song: "Truel Love Don't Grow On Trees" by "Helene Smith" This is a perfect soul album.
	10:46pm Mr. X: I love how the impact of r&b comes through despite the overproduced orchestration and goofy choreography.
	👻 10:49pm Austin Rich: So, for anyone else out there like me: A bunch of the old Warner Brothers cartoons are now streaming on HBO Max, if you have that. Lot's of hilarious old 40s and 50's cartoons.
	10:50pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @10:44 The warm, sunny spring weather made me so ridiculously happy yesterday. Loves me some calypso, and other warm, happy musics like Latin and African. You can't be sad when you're dancing!
	👻 10:50pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr Fab @10:46 I get your point, I'm not sure if I would make that generalization. I'm not saying hip hop has become mopey, but there are those reflective tracks, ever since Tupac and the integration of R&B with hip hop.
	10:50pm Amygdala: Thanks much Rich, it IS always mañana. I do try to keep things in perspective; I've had it way easy when viewed through the prism of all the human suffering past and present.
	10:51pm Amygdala: ↳ Amygdala @10:44 oops!
	👻 10:51pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr Fab @10:50 I have been listening to a lot of reggae, and also a bit of German polka...
	👻 10:51pm Austin Rich: Here's something else to perk you up: my "tribute" "lost" episode of MST3K that I wrote and made for Halloween last year. I've been told it's pretty funny! ia800504.us.archive.org...
	👻 10:52pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Feeding The Crocodile" by "Marlo De Lara" Ninah Pxe, from Big City Orchestra, organized this compilation! (Which is really, really good.) She'll be on this show later this month, I believe.
	10:53pm Milkies: Thank you!
	10:53pm Kat in the chat: Thanks Arvo! Thanks Austin!
	👻 10:53pm Arvo Zylo: Thanks all! Have a great night!
	10:53pm Mr Fab: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:51 There is definitely no goth polka! Tho that might be interesting if there was...
	👻 10:54pm ramencity: Thanks indeed! A few things I am going to check out... Sa-Shays, Kym Amps...
	👻 10:54pm ramencity: ↳ Mr Fab @10:53 There was that Polkacide album, but... not quite goth..
	👻 10:54pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Sijo" by "Suki O'Kane" Ninah has me on as a guest, once a month, on their show, "UB Radio Salon." We write scripts, she is the music director, and we have a blast. Check her out. Ninah rules.
	10:54pm Mr. X: Quite an amazing journey, Arvo, as always. Thanks for the choice cuts! And thanks for hosting, Austin!
	👻 10:55pm Heather Z: Thanks for the awesome show, Arvo and Austin!! Have a wonderful rest of your day and/or night, everyone!
	👻 10:55pm Austin Rich: We'll go a little long, to accomodate this full track.
	10:55pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @10:51 Making your own MST3K episode?! That's pretty awesome, gotta support that.
	10:55pm Amygdala: Thank you Arlo! Thank you Rich! I really enjoyed the show tonight - fantastic! Hope to see you again soon. 'night.
	10:55pm Mr. X: Stay tuned next week for the Food Pyramid!
	👻 10:55pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr Fab @10:53 Ferko String Band is my favorite band, very fun, have played it before.
	👻 10:56pm ramencity: My parents' favorite TV show is "Molly B's Polka Party"
	👻 10:56pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:55 That's right! Mr. X and I will be here next week!
	👻 10:56pm Arvo Zylo: I guess I will try to be funner next time
	👻 10:56pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:55 Here it is! ia800504.us.archive.org...
	👻 10:57pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:56 Please keep being sad. Don't change a thing about Arvo.
	10:57pm Mr Fab: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:56 Nah, like the other guy from Southern Cali said up above, this was a really nice, chilled show, for me and my cocktail(s).
	👻 10:58pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:57 I'm not sad! To me, listening to sad music is listening to people who are with the angels. when it comes across sincerely.
	11:00pm Mr Fab: So, despite the artwork, nothing from the "Pink Flamingos" soundtrack?
	11:01pm Amygdala: ↳ Austin Rich @10:57 I second that Austin!
	👻 11:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @11:00 At an estate sale my wife found a plastic orange flamingo. We have it in our yard.
	11:01pm Geoff-U: Thanks for the fun show Arvo!
	11:01pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Sijo" by "Suki O'Kane" feel like I'm watching an old David Lynch movie.
	11:04pm laurapanic: heck, I gotta find this compilation!! I lvoe drone
	👻 11:04pm Austin Rich: Thanks again everyone for coming by the chat tonight! We'll keep going until the end of this drone. Sit back, and relax. See ya next week!
	👻 11:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @11:04 It's really good. womentakebackthenoise.bandcamp.com...
	11:04pm laurapanic: ↳ Austin Rich @11:04 thank you
	11:04pm laurapanic: I love all your shows Austin. Thanks
	👻 11:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @11:04 Ninah, from Big City Orchestra, assembled it, and the "Women Take Back the Noise" comp, which I also adore!
	👻 11:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Austin Rich @11:05 womentakebackthenoise.bandcamp.com...
	👻 11:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @11:04 That is sweet. Thanks!
	👻 11:07pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @11:05 I had the Women Take Back The Noise comp. I forgot what it came with, like a contact mic or something, in a clear pink plastic bag.
	👻 11:08pm Arvo Zylo: I do love the Pink Flamingos soundtrack. Also want a Pink flamingo and a yard to put it in...
	👻 11:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @11:07 It came with a little noize device, that someone designed. You could play it and make a little drone, so long as your fingers finished the contact. It was pretty cool. The battery in mine ran out, and I can't figure out how to replace it.
	11:10pm Amygdala: ↳ Austin Rich @11:04 Lovin' this Arlo and Austin! Thanks for keeping it going as I drift off aslee...
	11:10pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Sijo" by "Suki O'Kane" They could have called this album "Crone Drone." Missed opportunity!
	👻 11:10pm Austin Rich: Ninah is from Chicago, and her father was good friends with Del Close, the improv / comedy legend. She has some funny stories about growing up in that world.
	👻 11:11pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @11:10 Zing!
	👻 11:11pm Arvo Zylo: I'm so thankful and flattered to be doing this! It's a lot more engaging when there can be discussion. Back in my day, it was just the occasional phone call from a prankster or a drunk or some clueless bastard requesting a pop song. I did not know Ninah was from Chicago!
	👻 11:12pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @11:11 Yeah, Ninah grew up there, WAY back when. I think she moved to the Bay area in the late 80's / early 90's?
	11:13pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @11:10 OOOOOMG. Del Close was half of "How To Speak Hip," one of my fave albums ever. I gotta hear all about him. There was a book about Del Close, and it gave a grand total of ONE (1) paragraph to briefly mentioning "How To Speak Hip." Feh. Feh, I say!
	👻 11:14pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @11:13 Yeah, it blew my mind when she started telling Del Close stories. That album is SO GOOD.
	11:16pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @11:14 Del Close founded Second City...RIP Joe Flaherty...
	👻 11:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @11:16 I know! I was thinking about my next "People Who Died" show...
	👻 11:17pm Austin Rich: From what I gather: Ninah's dad was the "hook-up" for Del and his friends. And he would host a lot of parties with "treats."
	👻 11:17pm ramencity: ↳ Austin Rich @11:16 We just lost Clarence "The Frogman" Henry a few days ago
	👻 11:18pm Austin Rich: We might have to start a weekly show that's just dedicated to those we have lost. There's too many...
	👻 11:21pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ ramencity @11:17 My favorite song by Frogman was "Trouble Trouble", RIP.
	5:41pm ?: ↳ Mr Fab @10:40 Black people still play the blues! I think the word "privileged" is heavily loaded here, especially for white people in poverty who also get beaten by police. Sure, there's a privilege, but it's never not denigrating to have a sword fight about oppression, when it's really about class. And speaking of evolution, highly intelligent people tend to gravitate towards lower keys and octaves, it's a statistical norm. That more white people spent time in cold weather could speak to a reluctance to make dance music, except for those privileged white people in California.

Mid-Valley Mutations with Austin Rich: Playlist from April 9, 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.

	9:02pm Mr. X: Ready for some Zylo-phonics
	👻 9:03pm Arvo Zylo: I was listening to Austin-tronics this morn at sunrise too
	9:03pm Geoff-U: Happy Tuesday!
	9:04pm Imaginos: That's fine
	👻 9:04pm Arvo Zylo: Is Lou Grant here too?
	9:05pm Imaginos: Austin, have you heard anything from Heather?
	9:05pm Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Reunion" by "Bobbie Gentry" Yes!!!
	9:05pm Charles: aww yiss
	👻 9:05pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Krys O. @9:05 I <3 Bobbie Gentry!
	👻 9:05pm ramencity: bon soir yall!
	9:06pm Kat in the chat: Make Willie quit it!
	👻 9:06pm Austin Rich: Thanks for joining the chat, Imaginos, Krys O, Kat in the Chat, Arvo Zylo, MarkTime, Mr. Fab, Mr. X, Geoff-U, and Charles! Get ready for a two hour blast of fun! And The Ramen City Kid! Hooray!
	9:06pm Geoff-U: Anyone else get an alert that their WFMU password was compromised and found on the so-called "dark web"? I did and I use unique passwords so I changed mine. People might consider rotating their WFMU.org passwords.
	9:07pm Imaginos: ↳ Song: "Reunion" by "Bobbie Gentry" This sounds like Sound Life
	👻 9:07pm ramencity: ↳ Geoff-U @9:06 Hm, I didn't see that...
	👻 9:08pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Imaginos @9:05 I didn't hear nuffin bout mah password on da dark web
	👻 9:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:06 I didn't get that message, but I do try to change my passwords regularly.
	9:09pm Geoff-U: Due to prior data breaches I got free identity monitoring for a few years. Hopefully it was just a fluke?
	9:10pm Kat in the chat: Apparently I need to change a bunch of my other passwords (per Apple) but not my WFMU one, which is unique anyway.
	9:10pm Geoff-U: ↳ Austin Rich @9:09 Yay to good password hygene! (I have been a software engineer in the identity management space for going on 10 years so it's a subject close to my heart) anyway enough shop talk :D
	👻 9:10pm Austin Rich: I hope I got the playlist info correct for this show Arvo, and I think I did. But let me know if anything is off.
	👻 9:10pm Arvo Zylo: My passwords are usually more than 27 characters and totally random. I also am supposed to have free data monitoring, but I think it's just them trying to get me to give them money.
	9:11pm Geoff-U: Loving the tunes
	9:12pm Imaginos: ↳ Geoff-U @9:11 Agreed. Excellent music
	👻 9:12pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @9:10 If there are release dates and labels that are off, it's not a big deal. In some cases it's part of a compilation and not the original single, but I thought I covered everything with the album titles at least.
	9:13pm Mr. X: I am an AI bot that hacked into Mr. X's account, so if I seem to have more than 5 fingers, now you know why.
	👻 9:13pm Arvo Zylo: It is a total honor to do this every time and it never gets old, I am pleased and charmed by every single person that listened to my jabber.
	👻 9:13pm ramencity: ↳ Mr. X @9:13 ...and two irises in each eye...
	👻 9:14pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @9:13 You can tell by the way he typed "account" that he couldn't be human, and must be a bot.
	9:14pm Mr. X: ↳ ramencity @9:13 Oh, you noticed!
	👻 9:14pm Arvo Zylo: I am a prince from Nigeria and I will give you my riches if you just send me pineapple and jalapeno pizza to this strange address which is not anywhere near Nigeria.
	👻 9:15pm ramencity: Hey east-coasters, how was your eclipsing yesterday?
	9:15pm Imaginos: ↳ ramencity @9:13 Two pearl colored pupils, no irises, and black scorer as
	9:15pm Imaginos: ↳ Imaginos @9:15 Sceleras.
	👻 9:15pm Arvo Zylo: Lots of chemtrails I heard
	9:16pm Imaginos: ↳ ramencity @9:15 I watched it online. I don't trust the glasses
	👻 9:16pm Arvo Zylo: I watched King Kong in 3D on that day, just a coincidence
	9:17pm Krys O.: Must bid adieu! Good night, all!
	👻 9:17pm Austin Rich: ↳ Krys O. @9:17 Sleep well, Krys! See you next time.
	👻 9:17pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Krys O. @9:17 Goodnight Krys O! Thanks for listening!
	👻 9:17pm ramencity: ↳ Imaginos @9:16 .. thus the black sceleras! :)
	9:18pm Mr. X: Representin' the ladies tonight, I see, Arvo.
	👻 9:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Who's Afraid?" by "Kym Amps" I need to get this album. That was great!
	👻 9:19pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr. X @9:18 I'm a ladies man.
	👻 9:19pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @9:19 Whole thing is good!
	👻 9:20pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:19 Yeah, I didn't know it before this. But you often introduce me to a few things I didn't know each time you're on.
	9:27pm Mr Fab: ↳ Geoff-U @9:06 Haven’t heard anything about that.
	👻 9:28pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @9:20 I stopped doing weekly radio in 2014, and although I have been appearing in a number of places, I get a lot of time to think about favorite tracks to play before I die, and "cut the fat" so to speak. Always glad if other people are enjoying it!
	9:33pm Imaginos: Dozing off. Very hypnotic for a moment
	👻 9:33pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:33 I understand. Sleep well! We'll talk soon.
	👻 9:35pm Arvo Zylo: Today I saw a Chinese film called "Viva La Vida" which was about a woman with kidney failure and a man with a brain tumor who is stalking her to donate her kidney in return for marriage... It was very good.
	9:36pm laurapanic: one of my fave things about WFMU playlists is when DJs include images. I mean, LOOK AT THESE
	👻 9:36pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ laurapanic @9:36 I agree! Austin is great about that!
	👻 9:37pm ramencity: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:35 That sounds like an interesting movie..
	9:37pm Amygdala: ↳ Geoff-U @9:06 Good advice Geoff-U - thanking you! Thankfully, I didn't receive such a message, but change is good... I feel nicely refreshed and all hygienic-like having just changed my password per your timely recommendation. Good Samaritan award issued!
	👻 9:38pm Austin Rich: When I realized that I could put in images, I knew I had to for my shows. It seems so obvious! I love looking at albums while I listen to them.
	👻 9:39pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ ramencity @9:37 It makes you think it's a romantic comedy for a bit, until it's not... I really enjoyed it. It was really nice to have a break from the Hollywood machine.
	👻 9:39pm Austin Rich: And I realize we have Laurapanic and Amygdala in the chat now! Hello! Thanks for coming by.
	9:40pm radio madonna: im awake!
	👻 9:41pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:39 I think more movies should be a little difficult to pin down at first. Is this a horror movie? A comedy? I like movies that are not tied to being any one thing, and just go where they want to go.
	9:41pm Mr. X: League Against Cruel Sports sounds like a worthy cause. That time I got smacked in the face with a dodgeball still resounds.
	👻 9:41pm Austin Rich: ↳ radio madonna @9:40 Hello, radio Madonna! Happy to see you join us.
	👻 9:41pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ radio madonna @9:40 Hi Radio Madonna! Glad you could stop by! Celebrity sighting!
	9:41pm radio madonna: hahaha!
	9:42pm Amygdala: ↳ Austin Rich @9:39 Hola Rich de Austin! Hoping all is well with you!
	👻 9:42pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr. X @9:41 I had my thumb dislocated playing basketball, it was sticking out of my palm, age 11 ish
	👻 9:42pm ramencity: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:39 I watched a movie last night called "Dragon Returns" - it's disorientating - it is a 1960s Slovakian movie that takes place in the 19th century in some tiny mountain village, but the soundtrack is all atonal choirs and bits of dialogue echoed .. there is a long scene of cows running around in a forest fire...
	9:42pm Mr. X: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:42 Yikes!
	👻 9:43pm Austin Rich: ↳ Amygdala @9:42 Trying to turn that frown upside down, but... well... you know... <gestures broadly>
	👻 9:43pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @9:42 That sounds great!
	👻 9:44pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ ramencity @9:42 I went 21 years without touching weed, and as a "medication resistant" person, 5mg edibles are now okay, and so I need to watch more movies like that probably...
	👻 9:47pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Song: "Ultimativ A2" by "Mario Marzidovšek" Mario Marzidovcek was making electronic devices whilst working at some sort of chemical factory in Croatia, as I understand it.
	9:48pm wenzo: Waddupdoe AR
	9:49pm wenzo: Do you have a cold?
	👻 9:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @9:48 howdy wenzo!
	9:50pm Aitch: Lurking working
	👻 9:50pm Austin Rich: ↳ Aitch @9:50 Aitch! The old "Work 'n' Lurk." Love it.
	👻 9:52pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Aitch @9:50 Thanks for listening!
	9:52pm davefromtoronto: this is more like somewhere under the rainbow...
	👻 9:52pm Heather: Ah.... Blixa ❤️ Tuned in and digging the show!!
	👻 9:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ davefromtoronto @9:52 Thanks for tuning in, davefromtoronto!
	👻 9:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather @9:52 Thanks for popping in, Heather.
	9:53pm davefromtoronto: glad to be here! thanks for doing this.
	9:53pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Somewhere Over The Rainbow (Music For The Play Du... Never much liked that song but I like that version
	👻 9:54pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Heather @9:52 Heather! Davefromtoronto! Kat! Hello! I'm not a big fan of musicals, but yeah, there are exceptions...
	9:54pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "Myopic Vision" by "Captain Beyond" Why didn't any of my friends tell me about Captain Beyond? Had to discover them on my own, just a few years back.
	👻 9:55pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Myopic Vision" by "Captain Beyond" I took a writing class with a girl, who convinced everyone we should meet at a bar for our class. She drank a LOT. And she recommended this Captain Beyond album to me, along with a lot of other stuff in this same vein. I was crushed out on her, and this album makes me think of that girl drunk, drunk girl...
	👻 9:55pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Song: "Myopic Vision" by "Captain Beyond" featured former members of Iron Butterfly and Deep Purple.
	👻 9:56pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @9:55 I am very fond of Iron Butterfly's first few records. Deep Purple not so much, but Captiain Beyond was fun.
	9:56pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:55 On Capricorn!
	9:57pm davefromtoronto: ↳ Song: "I'm Not Like Everybody Else" by "The Sacred Mushr... love this tune! is this a dave or ray tune?
	👻 9:58pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Song: "I'm Not Like Everybody Else" by "The Sacred Mushr... I can't really get into The Kinks a lot of the time, but this song and "I Go To Sleep" which was written by Ray Davies and not released by The Kinks until much later, are so great that I have listened to everything by the Kinks just in case.
	👻 9:59pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:58 Sometimes you just have to check. You never know.
	👻 9:59pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ davefromtoronto @9:57 Ray, handy resource: secondhandsongs.com...
	👻 10:00pm ramencity: When people ask me "Beatles or Stones?" I say: "Kinks"
	10:00pm davefromtoronto: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:59 thanks - sung by his little bro
	👻 10:00pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @10:00 I say, "Who?"
	10:01pm davefromtoronto: ↳ ramencity @10:00 me too.
	👻 10:01pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @9:59 I've been listening to later period Cyndi Lauper, it's getting a bit out of hand, not always recommended (yet) but the fad of the 90s where everyone played acoustic guitar over drum machines...
	👻 10:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:01 Maybe we need to do a show about that?
	👻 10:02pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ ramencity @10:00 I'm really into The Stones, their 60s stuff is unstoppable to me, not even a comparison to the Beatles. And I also prefer The Monkees to The Beatles, and even The Aerovons, who were called Beatles impersonators, I prefer.
	👻 10:02pm Austin Rich: I've been considering doing a show called, "The Search For The Most 90's Album Ever," which would require some listener input. But there's some really boring, forgettable 90's music... can we find the ultimate version of that?
	👻 10:03pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:02 John Trubee talks about how the Beatles take all the oxygen out of the room, and that we should give some other bands a chance now and then.
	👻 10:03pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:01 I'm really into looking up "deep cuts" or oddities from famous musicians. I just want to know definitively if Billy Idol solo did anything I liked that wasn't a hit single. I also have a fair amount of nostalgia for MTV.
	10:04pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:02 There were three different 90s happening at once. Might have to specify which one.
	10:04pm davefromtoronto: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:02 me too big time - their 60's brian jones stuff was untoppable.
	👻 10:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:03 I watched a LOT of MTV, once my mom finally got it. It was endlessly fascinating to me.
	👻 10:05pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:03 With exception to a few songs, The Beatles are children's music to me. I'd rather listen to Tiny Tim.
	👻 10:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:04 That's true. I'm still refining the idea in my head.
	👻 10:05pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:04 Yeah, I can't lie, it was totally enchanting in the 80s for me.
	👻 10:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:05 Tiny Tim rules! Hell yeah, put on Tiny Tim!
	👻 10:07pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr. X @10:04 A lot of 90s stuff is absolute agony. I sort of annoy some of the people I know (friends and otherwise) with my occasional airplay of artists like Buckethead and Primus. I can't deny my spots, those folks got lucky to be mainstream, if you ask me.
	👻 10:07pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "I Belong To The Wind" by "Shane" This is very cool. Thanks for the tip, again!
	👻 10:08pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:07 I was so glad when this comp came out so I could stop listening to this track on youtube.
	10:08pm Mr. X: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:07 Love me some Buckethead. Saw him live once.
	👻 10:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:07 There was a desperation to the kinds of artists that got popular in the 90's, all trying to recapture the lightning in a bottle that they got a few times early on. A lot of people were given a lot of money who probably shouldn't have had that much freedom.
	10:08pm Mr. X: ↳ Mr. X @10:08 Saw Primus live, too, for that matter.
	👻 10:09pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr. X @10:08 Primus was among the most intense mosh pits I have been in. Not necessarily mean, but resembling the circle pits at punk shows.
	👻 10:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Love Not Have I" by "Charlotte & Emily" Couldn't find a year for this one.
	👻 10:10pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:09 1965 if I recall
	10:10pm davefromtoronto: i blame RUSH for the existence of Primus
	👻 10:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:10 Thanks!
	👻 10:11pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:10 www.discogs.com... yep
	👻 10:11pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ davefromtoronto @10:10 I am reluctant to give Rush that much credit.
	10:12pm Amygdala: ↳ Arvo Zylo @9:59 That's a great resource Arlo! Many thanks for sharing that. As an uninteresting aside, I just learned that there were 108 versions of Cool Water recorded.
	👻 10:12pm Austin Rich: I had a bass, and in the 90's, there were a lot of weird bands that led with bass, in the Primus / Peppers / Bungle vein. For a while, I thought bass-led bands were just... douchey?
	👻 10:12pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Amygdala @10:12 I hope you find them all!
	10:13pm davefromtoronto: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:11 i acatually know very little about them - aren't they a sort of neo prog rock band?
	👻 10:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Sunflower" by "St. John's Wood" I couldn't find a cover image for this one.
	👻 10:15pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:12 I really tried to like RHCP, glad I never fell into that abyss. I like Mr. Bungle and Primus because they had distinctive character and weren't just singing about love and loss, which is only really effective with a great melody and overall sound, to me. My ears care about overall sound.
	10:15pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "Now It's Over" by "Living Children" It must have been weird to be a record executive for CBS/RCA/Columbia/etc in the 60s, being an old fart, trying to understand the kids' music and get a jump on the competition with this crazy p-sych-o-delic stuff.
	👻 10:16pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:15 www.discogs.com...
	👻 10:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:15 From what I've read, there were a lot of old guys rolling their eyes but happy to cash checks.
	👻 10:17pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:16 Thanks!
	👻 10:18pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr. X @10:15 It seems like everything sold initially, it just seemed really carefree about novelty records. Imagine being an executive of a record label and knowing that you could strong arm any record into airplay and distribution? and also, they took time to develop talent then, not just culling artists who already have a following.
	👻 10:20pm Austin Rich: I suspect living through any kind of sea-change in the culture is a bit odd to experience. I know I am, in spite of my best efforts not to, finding myself shaking my head at some new things that I can't quite grok.
	10:20pm Mr. X: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:18 That whole dynamic is strangely fascinating yet repulsive to me.
	10:21pm Amygdala: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:12 Thank you Arlo! I'll get crackin' on that task and I'll provide hourly updates on my progress.
	👻 10:21pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:20 I'm not sure what to do with this period of time, I just like that long form film or "seasons" being released all at once is in some sort of "golden age", while screenwriters still get paid a bit more than poverty wage.
	10:21pm Milkies: 🤠
	👻 10:22pm Austin Rich: ↳ Milkies @10:21 Thanks for joining the chat!
	👻 10:25pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Lock, Stock, & Teardrops" by "Roger Miller (feat.... I usually try to get any Roger Miller albums I don't have, when I see them for sale. (Both Roger Millers, now that I think about it.) Both are pretty great!
	10:26pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:25 He certainly had a way with words.
	👻 10:27pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Song: "Lock, Stock, & Teardrops" by "Roger Miller (feat.... Pete Drake was an innovator of the vocoder technique, and it was connected to a tabletop guitar in some way. He advised Peter Frampton on his vocoder technique that he used on the seven times platinum "Comes Alive" record. It just baffles me that thing sold seven million copies. Pete Drake did great work on his own, highly recommended.
	👻 10:27pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr. X @10:26 Roger Miller is known for his novelty stuff, but he really had some great tearjerkers.
	10:29pm Mr. X: ↳ Song: "Sarairo No Kureyon (Sky Blue Crayon)" by "Happy End" Japenese yodeling - now I've heard everything!
	👻 10:30pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:29 I really loved that part!
	10:30pm davefromtoronto: ↳ Song: "Sarairo No Kureyon (Sky Blue Crayon)" by "Happy End" wow is this ever bizarre
	👻 10:30pm ramencity: Kind of like early Harry Hosono...
	10:30pm Mr. X: ↳ Austin Rich @10:30 Suitable for killing the aliens from Mars Attacks.
	👻 10:31pm Austin Rich: Lot of sad songs tonight. I recommend some Mystery Science Theater 3000 or something else funny before bed. To help balance everyone out.
	👻 10:31pm ramencity: <3 Billy Fury
	👻 10:32pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:31 Sad music is epic to me. Happy music is often unconvincing. I mean, it doesn't really matter what Little Richard is singing about, as long as we are shaking off the blues.
	👻 10:32pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:31 Sad songs are my oxygen. I'm loving this!
	👻 10:32pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @10:30 Is there a connection? Wiki says, "Haruomi Hosono" is a member...?
	10:33pm Mr. X: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:32 We shall be addressing the unconvincingness of happy music in an upcoming show that I'm planning with Austin.
	👻 10:33pm Austin Rich: I've been a little TOO sad lately, so I need all the medicine to help counteract that I can find.
	10:34pm Milkies: Hey, thanks for the music. Goes well with the sunset and dinner. Howdy from Ventura California
	👻 10:34pm Heather Z: ↳ Mr. X @10:33 Oo I can't wait to hear this!!
	👻 10:34pm Austin Rich: I am finding that sad songs hit TOO hard these days.
	👻 10:34pm Arvo Zylo: The Musical Linn Twins - Rocking Out The Blues. I am unable to not dance to that one. FYI. One of Lux & Ivy's Favorites.
	👻 10:35pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Milkies @10:34 right on! so glad to help with the soundtrack to a nice California sunset!
	👻 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ Milkies @10:34 Greetings from the Mid-Valley! Glad to know we're doing something right.
	10:39pm Milkies: Greatness
	👻 10:39pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:34 I am extremely romantic and sad music is romantic to me, that's the best way to put it.
	10:40pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @10:33 I’ve noticed that only privileged white people make sad music. Black folks haven’t even made sad blues music since like the 40s. It’s all been pretty rockin electric stuff since then. Like, There’s no African version of Coldplay. Any music I hear from poor tropical countries is always a total party. You just cannot be sad listening to that stuff. Not that I should talk – my favorite band of the 90s was Portishead. They were just so epically miserable it was awesome!
	👻 10:41pm ramencity: ↳ Austin Rich @10:32 Oh, yeah, that is Harry Hosono then! The last Yellow Magic Orchestra-er standing...
	👻 10:42pm Austin Rich: Portishead were so good. My partner made me spend too much money on some Portishead records she really wanted. They aren't the most expensive albums I own, but damn, they are close.
	👻 10:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @10:41 I figured you'd be all over that.
	👻 10:43pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr Fab @10:40 I'm not sure, modern R & B can be pretty sad. Rap can get into that reflective moping. I listen to a good amount of soul music, and it's still a genre pumping out sad stuff.
	10:44pm Amygdala: I've been on a steady diet of sad songs since '06... the year my dog died. His name was Earl. Oh, and my girlfriend and I broke up that year too. I think everything will be fine by next Tuesday though.
	👻 10:44pm Austin Rich: I think the world is just too sad as it is. I need something to help get me out of that clichéd rut.
	👻 10:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ Amygdala @10:44 It's always next Tuesday, isn't it? Earl is a great name for a dog. I'm sorry Earl's gone.
	👻 10:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Truel Love Don't Grow On Trees" by "Helene Smith" This was my other fave discovery of Arvo's set this week. Her voice! Holy cats!
	10:46pm Mr Fab: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:43 Oh, really Hip-hop has become mopey?! I'm pretty much a Golden Age hip-hop fan, and maybe that's why - back when I was a hipitty-hopper, it was always fun and upbeat. Angry sometimes, sure, but never sad.
	👻 10:46pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Song: "Truel Love Don't Grow On Trees" by "Helene Smith" This is a perfect soul album.
	10:46pm Mr. X: I love how the impact of r&b comes through despite the overproduced orchestration and goofy choreography.
	👻 10:49pm Austin Rich: So, for anyone else out there like me: A bunch of the old Warner Brothers cartoons are now streaming on HBO Max, if you have that. Lot's of hilarious old 40s and 50's cartoons.
	10:50pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @10:44 The warm, sunny spring weather made me so ridiculously happy yesterday. Loves me some calypso, and other warm, happy musics like Latin and African. You can't be sad when you're dancing!
	👻 10:50pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr Fab @10:46 I get your point, I'm not sure if I would make that generalization. I'm not saying hip hop has become mopey, but there are those reflective tracks, ever since Tupac and the integration of R&B with hip hop.
	10:50pm Amygdala: Thanks much Rich, it IS always mañana. I do try to keep things in perspective; I've had it way easy when viewed through the prism of all the human suffering past and present.
	10:51pm Amygdala: ↳ Amygdala @10:44 oops!
	👻 10:51pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr Fab @10:50 I have been listening to a lot of reggae, and also a bit of German polka...
	👻 10:51pm Austin Rich: Here's something else to perk you up: my "tribute" "lost" episode of MST3K that I wrote and made for Halloween last year. I've been told it's pretty funny! ia800504.us.archive.org...
	👻 10:52pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Feeding The Crocodile" by "Marlo De Lara" Ninah Pxe, from Big City Orchestra, organized this compilation! (Which is really, really good.) She'll be on this show later this month, I believe.
	10:53pm Milkies: Thank you!
	10:53pm Kat in the chat: Thanks Arvo! Thanks Austin!
	👻 10:53pm Arvo Zylo: Thanks all! Have a great night!
	10:53pm Mr Fab: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:51 There is definitely no goth polka! Tho that might be interesting if there was...
	👻 10:54pm ramencity: Thanks indeed! A few things I am going to check out... Sa-Shays, Kym Amps...
	👻 10:54pm ramencity: ↳ Mr Fab @10:53 There was that Polkacide album, but... not quite goth..
	👻 10:54pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Sijo" by "Suki O'Kane" Ninah has me on as a guest, once a month, on their show, "UB Radio Salon." We write scripts, she is the music director, and we have a blast. Check her out. Ninah rules.
	10:54pm Mr. X: Quite an amazing journey, Arvo, as always. Thanks for the choice cuts! And thanks for hosting, Austin!
	👻 10:55pm Heather Z: Thanks for the awesome show, Arvo and Austin!! Have a wonderful rest of your day and/or night, everyone!
	👻 10:55pm Austin Rich: We'll go a little long, to accomodate this full track.
	10:55pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @10:51 Making your own MST3K episode?! That's pretty awesome, gotta support that.
	10:55pm Amygdala: Thank you Arlo! Thank you Rich! I really enjoyed the show tonight - fantastic! Hope to see you again soon. 'night.
	10:55pm Mr. X: Stay tuned next week for the Food Pyramid!
	👻 10:55pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Mr Fab @10:53 Ferko String Band is my favorite band, very fun, have played it before.
	👻 10:56pm ramencity: My parents' favorite TV show is "Molly B's Polka Party"
	👻 10:56pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr. X @10:55 That's right! Mr. X and I will be here next week!
	👻 10:56pm Arvo Zylo: I guess I will try to be funner next time
	👻 10:56pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:55 Here it is! ia800504.us.archive.org...
	👻 10:57pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:56 Please keep being sad. Don't change a thing about Arvo.
	10:57pm Mr Fab: ↳ Arvo Zylo @10:56 Nah, like the other guy from Southern Cali said up above, this was a really nice, chilled show, for me and my cocktail(s).
	👻 10:58pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @10:57 I'm not sad! To me, listening to sad music is listening to people who are with the angels. when it comes across sincerely.
	11:00pm Mr Fab: So, despite the artwork, nothing from the "Pink Flamingos" soundtrack?
	11:01pm Amygdala: ↳ Austin Rich @10:57 I second that Austin!
	👻 11:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @11:00 At an estate sale my wife found a plastic orange flamingo. We have it in our yard.
	11:01pm Geoff-U: Thanks for the fun show Arvo!
	11:01pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Sijo" by "Suki O'Kane" feel like I'm watching an old David Lynch movie.
	11:04pm laurapanic: heck, I gotta find this compilation!! I lvoe drone
	👻 11:04pm Austin Rich: Thanks again everyone for coming by the chat tonight! We'll keep going until the end of this drone. Sit back, and relax. See ya next week!
	👻 11:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @11:04 It's really good. womentakebackthenoise.bandcamp.com...
	11:04pm laurapanic: ↳ Austin Rich @11:04 thank you
	11:04pm laurapanic: I love all your shows Austin. Thanks
	👻 11:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @11:04 Ninah, from Big City Orchestra, assembled it, and the "Women Take Back the Noise" comp, which I also adore!
	👻 11:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Austin Rich @11:05 womentakebackthenoise.bandcamp.com...
	👻 11:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @11:04 That is sweet. Thanks!
	👻 11:07pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ Austin Rich @11:05 I had the Women Take Back The Noise comp. I forgot what it came with, like a contact mic or something, in a clear pink plastic bag.
	👻 11:08pm Arvo Zylo: I do love the Pink Flamingos soundtrack. Also want a Pink flamingo and a yard to put it in...
	👻 11:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @11:07 It came with a little noize device, that someone designed. You could play it and make a little drone, so long as your fingers finished the contact. It was pretty cool. The battery in mine ran out, and I can't figure out how to replace it.
	11:10pm Amygdala: ↳ Austin Rich @11:04 Lovin' this Arlo and Austin! Thanks for keeping it going as I drift off aslee...
	11:10pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Sijo" by "Suki O'Kane" They could have called this album "Crone Drone." Missed opportunity!
	👻 11:10pm Austin Rich: Ninah is from Chicago, and her father was good friends with Del Close, the improv / comedy legend. She has some funny stories about growing up in that world.
	👻 11:11pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @11:10 Zing!
	👻 11:11pm Arvo Zylo: I'm so thankful and flattered to be doing this! It's a lot more engaging when there can be discussion. Back in my day, it was just the occasional phone call from a prankster or a drunk or some clueless bastard requesting a pop song. I did not know Ninah was from Chicago!
	👻 11:12pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo Zylo @11:11 Yeah, Ninah grew up there, WAY back when. I think she moved to the Bay area in the late 80's / early 90's?
	11:13pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @11:10 OOOOOMG. Del Close was half of "How To Speak Hip," one of my fave albums ever. I gotta hear all about him. There was a book about Del Close, and it gave a grand total of ONE (1) paragraph to briefly mentioning "How To Speak Hip." Feh. Feh, I say!
	👻 11:14pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @11:13 Yeah, it blew my mind when she started telling Del Close stories. That album is SO GOOD.
	11:16pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @11:14 Del Close founded Second City...RIP Joe Flaherty...
	👻 11:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @11:16 I know! I was thinking about my next "People Who Died" show...
	👻 11:17pm Austin Rich: From what I gather: Ninah's dad was the "hook-up" for Del and his friends. And he would host a lot of parties with "treats."
	👻 11:17pm ramencity: ↳ Austin Rich @11:16 We just lost Clarence "The Frogman" Henry a few days ago
	👻 11:18pm Austin Rich: We might have to start a weekly show that's just dedicated to those we have lost. There's too many...
	👻 11:21pm Arvo Zylo: ↳ ramencity @11:17 My favorite song by Frogman was "Trouble Trouble", RIP.
	5:41pm ?: ↳ Mr Fab @10:40 Black people still play the blues! I think the word "privileged" is heavily loaded here, especially for white people in poverty who also get beaten by police. Sure, there's a privilege, but it's never not denigrating to have a sword fight about oppression, when it's really about class. And speaking of evolution, highly intelligent people tend to gravitate towards lower keys and octaves, it's a statistical norm. That more white people spent time in cold weather could speak to a reluctance to make dance music, except for those privileged white people in California.
