James White And The Blacks	(Tropical) Heat Wave	"Off White"	ZE Records	1979	R.I.P. James Chance. (nee James Siegfried") "Off White is a 1979 album by American no wave band James White and the Blacks. //// In late 1978, ZE Records co-founder Michael Zilkha approached James Chance and offered Chance $10,000 to record a disco album. Zilkha gave little direction and asked the band for its own take on the genre. Anya Phillips, Chance's manager and girlfriend, came up with the idea to rename James Chance and the Contortions to James White and the Blacks for the album. An alternate name, James White and His Blacks, was rejected by Zilkha. Phillips and the band put together outfits resembling 1960s soul singers. //// Chance said that he was interested in the monotonous sound of disco music because it "doesn't have beginnings and ends". His persona is an homage to soul and funk musician James Brown. Chance was also intrigued by the shock value of a punk group embracing disco. He received disco records for free and passed time listening to a record for several seconds before throwing it out a window. Chance wrote a piece for the first issue of East Village Eye, praising disco and denouncing "outdated, cornball 'new/no wave' drivel". //// Off White includes contributions from Lydia Lunch, Robert Quine, and Vivienne Dick. The band spent most of their budget recording the album's first side and used instrumentals for the second side. The album often discusses racial issues, and most of its titles are references to race. Some responded to the Off White with accusations of racism. Chance later responded, "I was the one that brought black music onto the whole punk scene, and I took a lot of shit for it…I was just playing with my whole image of a white person doing black music." //// James White and the Blacks promoted the album with a February 1979 performance at Club 57 in the East Village, Manhattan. ZE rented Irving Plaza for the album's launch party, where the band lip synced its songs. The band's live performances included two teenage dancers called the Disco Lolitas. //// The band released "Contort Yourself" as a 12" vinyl single. The song originally appeared on Buy, and the group re-recorded it with a disco beat. Chance observed that the tempo was too fast to be played in discos, so ZE labelmate August Darnell created a remix of it. Darnell used a slower tempo and wrote a new guitar part. James White and the Blacks' version of "Contort Yourself" was later included in ZE's 1981 Mutant Disco compilation, its 2003 NY No Wave compilation, Strut Records' 2008 Disco Not Disco 3, and ZE's 2009 compilation for its 30th anniversary.""		0:00:00 (Pop-up)

Dine had previously been a member of Adventures in Stereo. Martey was for a time the singer in Morcheeba.

Iggy Pop & The Trolls	Here Comes The Summer	Skull Ring	Virgin Records	2003	Skull Ring is the fourteenth studio album by American rock singer Iggy Pop, released in November 2003. Every track on the album features guest performers. The performers are The Stooges, The Trolls, Green Day, Sum 41 to name a few. The performers on most of the tracks on the album are The Trolls, Iggy's band from the Beat 'Em Up era. Members of his original band The Stooges also appear on some of the tracks. This album was pretty much universally panned..and for good reason...but this tune is a standout and the Trolls are doing their best...		0:09:49 (Pop-up)
The Forgotten Rebels	Surfin' On Heroin	Surfin' On Heroin	Restless Records	1988	A raged group of youth from Hamilton Canada in the late 70s were to bring a decidedly more offensive level, more in your face, and more obscene than anyone had ever dared, and the Forgotten Rebels spend the next 20 plus years influencing many new bands and making a mark that was there’s alone. Although it was done as a “let’s just get any reaction” statement, the tongue and cheek humor of the band was to be their Achilles heel forever. They have shared bills with The Clash, Ramones, Iggy Pop, The Cramps, and many others. "I can only speak to the late 70’s but it was an exciting time. Hamilton always had a strong, independent music scene. There were lots of cool bands of inspired people at that time, who picked up an instrument and learned to play. We had no lessons, but just tried to nail the sound of bands like The Stooges, New York Dolls or the Ramones. Hamilton was a lot like Detroit. We were a steel town rife with bikers and rednecks, but with that came a rawness that you could hear in the music."....		0:14:35 (Pop-up)
Parquet Courts	Sunbathing Animal "Sunbathing Animal" by "Parquet Courts"	Sunbathing Animal	What's Your Rupture?	2014	Sunbathing Animal is Parquet Courts' Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain, a record that focuses more on structure as the band deploys melodic tricks with greater subtlety and precision....it sounds like the work of long-distance pavement-pounders who have learned when to store up energy, and when to release it. As an album, it's impeccably structured, with the slow-burn cuts placed in just the right places to break up the band's steady crunch. "Sunbathing Animal" is four minutes of impassioned fury that doubles as a solid punk tune and as a speed-addled take on pre-Beatles rock'n'roll—but forget the video, all you need is the lyric sheet to tell that Savage is singing from the perspective of a housecat. "I want to flee/ But I can only stare," he laments furiously, one of many times that he and Brown get lyrically weird on Sunbathing Animal.		0:17:22 (Pop-up)
Sleaford Mods	Air Conditioning "Air Conditioning" by "Sleaford Mods"	Divide and Exit	Harbinger Sound	2014	Sleaford Mods snap at you, lumber at you, insult you, your friends, probably some of your family too. They’re a force of nature, of testosterone and English crossness; of bile and humour. Divide And Exit is a record that demands you sit up and pay attention, unable to do anything else while it’s on, a ticker-tape of frustration and smart tension blocking out peripheral vision...Sleaford Mods force you to confront your own fecklessness, your own role and contribution to the English malaise. Sleaford Mods’d probably think I was a twat, and that’s what I love about them. Sleaford Mods force you to confront your own fecklessness, your own role and contribution to the English malaise.

The Go-Go's	Beatnik Beach "Beatnik Beach" by "The Go-Go's"	Vacation	IRS	1982	Vacation is the second studio album by American rock band the Go-Go's, released on July 20, 1982, by I.R.S. Records. The album reached number eight on the Billboard 200. "Beatnik Beach,” gives us all serious surfer vibes with the heavy drums and guitar tunes that sound as if they rode the waves and came straight to us from California. One of the most instrumentally driven out from the whole album, “Beatnik Beach” is a straight up rocker....		0:23:42 (Pop-up)
The Undertones	Here Comes The Summer	The Undertones	BMG	1979	"Here Comes the Summer" is a song originally written and recorded by Northern Irish band the Undertones. The song was inspired by the Ramones and was written in 1978 by the band's principal songwriter, John O'Neill. It was included, initially as an album track, on their eponymous debut LP, which was released on 13 May 1979. A faster version of "Here Comes the Summer" was recorded in mid-1979 and released on 13 July, reaching number 34 in the UK Singles Chart on 4 August that year.[4] It was the Undertones' fourth single and, at just one minute and 45 seconds long, is their shortest single.		0:26:34 (Pop-up)
The Dead Milkmen	Beach Song "Beach Song" by "The Dead Milkmen"	Big Lizard In My Backyard	Golf Pro Music	1985	The Dead Milkmen is an American punk rock band formed in 1983 in Philadelphia. The band distinguished itself in the hardcore punk scene of the early 1980s through its jangly punk sound and sardonic humor delivered with thick Philadelphia accents.The band enjoyed international success on the strength of "Punk Rock Girl", a single from their 1988 Beelzebubba album which entered into MTV rotation. After an ill-fated stint with major record label Hollywood Records, health problems and industry frustrations in the wake of their success led to the group's 1995 breakup.		0:28:13 (Pop-up)

The Fall	Get A Summer Song Goin' "Get A Summer Song Goin'" by "The Fall"	Your Future Our Clutter	Domino Recording Co.	2010	(Thus far only available as an exclusive track on the vinyl version of the album) --- It officially turned to summer just a few hours ago here in our EST. We generally have a policy of trying to avoid playing the same song twice (if we can help it), but making an exception for this song which is turning out to be one of the rarer Fall tracks around. To my knowledge it's not been on any other format, compilation, live album, or anything other than the original double vinyl from 2010. Alllllsoooo... This harkens back to our very first show on July 8, 2021. Three summers flying by... Incidentally, this happens to be a killer Fall song, too. The final Fall guitarist Pete Greenway counts this song amongst his favourites he'd performed... "PG: My favourite songs from my tenure in the band are from the albums Your Future, Our Clutter, and the last LP New Facts Emerge, namely "Hot Cake" and "Chino" with its woozy bass line. "Get a Summer Song Goin'," which we all thought would be a summer hit but was relegated to the vinyl only version of the release (Your Future, Our Clutter)."

Th' Faith Healers	Moona Inna Joona	Mr Litnanski	Too Pure	1992	Seemingly impossible to find online other than on low-quality streaming YT, but beggars can't be... It also seems to have escaped my physical collection, which is surprising to me, since I know it so well & always thought I had it somewhere. Also appeared on the non-European edition of "Lido". /////////////// ---> "Th' Faith Healers were an English indie rock band who were originally active between 1990 and 1994. They recorded multiple EPs and singles along with two full LPs. //// The members of the group were Roxanne Stephen (vocals), Tom Cullinan (guitar and vocals), Ben Hopkin (bass), and Joe Dilworth (drums). //// Cullinan, who handled the bulk of the songwriting, went on to help form the band Quickspace. Signed to Too Pure in the United Kingdom, their albums were released by Elektra in the United States. Both albums feature clear krautrock influences, most evident in their cover of Can's "Mother Sky", from Lido. //// Since their initial break-up in 1994, the band have reformed intermittently. They embarked on a short reunion tour in 2006 in conjunction with the release of their compilation Peel Sessions the previous year. The band reformed in 2009, playing at the All Tomorrow's Parties music festival twice, first in May (curated by The Breeders) and then again in December (curated by My Bloody Valentine)."		0:41:53 (Pop-up)
Veronica Falls	Beachy Head "Beachy Head" by "Veronica Falls"	Veronica Falls	Slumberland Records	2011	"Veronica Falls were a British indie pop band that formed in London in 2009. The band consisted of Roxanne Clifford and James Hoare, both on vocals and guitar, Marion Herbain on bass guitar and Patrick Doyle on drums and backing vocals. The members of the band were formerly in the bands The Royal We and Sexy Kids. The band released several singles in the United Kingdom and the United States throughout the 2010s. //// Veronica Falls came to prominence with the release of their self-titled debut album in 2011. //// In 2009, Roxanne Clifford and Patrick Doyle from Sexy Kids teamed up with James Hoare of Your Twenties. Clifford and Doyle met Hoare at a Comet Gain show. After a meeting with Hoare, their friend Marion Herbain accepted to join the band to form Veronica Falls as it is now. //// In 2010, Veronica Falls released two singles, "Found Love in a Graveyard" and "Beachy Head", on the American label Captured Tracks. //// After releasing their first two singles, the band recorded with veteran producer Guy Fixsen.

Primal Scream	Beautiful Summer "Beautiful Summer" by "Primal Scream"	Beautiful Future	B-Unique	2008	"Beautiful Future is the ninth studio album by Scottish rock band Primal Scream. It was released on 21 July 2008 by B-Unique Records. It peaked at number 9 on the UK Albums Chart. It was promoted with the single "Can't Go Back", and was produced by Björn Yttling and Paul Epworth. //// According to the press release, "the album displays a heady mix of genre crunching taking in Philly soul, dark electro, accelerated rock'n'roll riffs and pure British pop, all given that particular Scream edge." The album features special guest appearances from Lovefoxxx (of Cansei de Ser Sexy), Josh Homme (of Queens of the Stone Age) and folk legend Linda Thompson. With the extended edition of Beautiful Future, as well as the album featuring two extra songs ("Urban Guerrilla", "Time of Assassins"), the album also includes the video for the single, "Can't Go Back". //// It is the first album not to feature the guitarist Robert "Throb" Young, who left after the release of their previous album Riot City Blues in 2006 due to his retirement for personal reasons, and it is also the last studio album to feature the bassist Mani, who departed after Screamadelica Live in 2011, and then re-formed his past band The Stone Roses in the same year."		0:47:30 (Pop-up)

Music behind DJ: A Man Called Adam	The Longest Day (Piano Rerub Album Version)	Love Forgotten - Oddities & Rarities Part 2	Other	2021	"A Man Called Adam’s Sally Rodgers and Steve Jones have been making pioneering electronic music since the late 80s. Exploring diverse musical influences but always sounding recognisably themselves, they defy categorisation and yet have produced defining tracks in genres such as Acid Jazz, Balearic House, Ibiza Chill Out and Nu British House. Respected by peers and fans alike, they are endlessly curious and never stand still. Returning to popular consciousness in 2019 with their acclaimed album Farmarama, they performed live at various festivals including Gilles Peterson’s We Out Here and Kala Festival in Albania. They also commissioned remixes from young talent like Carlos Gualda, DJ Aleksandir and Felipe Gordon as well as established names like Prins Thomas for their popular Farmarama remix series. In 21/22 they compiled 2 colossal compilations – Love Forgotten, Oddities and Rarities Parts 1 & 2 – from the hidden corners of their catalogue as well as Special Edition releases of previously vinyl-only mixes of some of their classic cuts."		0:55:16 (Pop-up)
Grandaddy	Summer Here Kids "Summer Here Kids" by "Grandaddy"	Under the Western Freeway	V2	1998	he history of Grandaddy, who were once hailed as an American answer to Radiohead, is a story of almosts and what-could-have-beens. From the start, Under the Western Freeway established Grandaddy’s deft ability to intertwine warm melodies and wry insights, opening a curtain on their corner of the world...Under the Western Freeway is a melancholy album that doesn’t mope; it’s rooted in the kind of gradual losses that fade into the fabric of a life. Lytle’s reassuring melodies take influence from Jeff Lynne and Neil Young, for a style that still feels wiser than most indie-rock debuts. And the contradictions at this band’s heart—nature vs. technology, electronic vs. organic—have hardly become obsolete over the last 20 years, even if it has arguably become harder to make a career singing about them.		1:04:11 (Pop-up)
Junior Senior	Shake Your Coconuts	D-D-Don't Don't Stop the Beat	Crunchy Frog	2002	D-D-Don't Don't Stop the Beat is the first studio album by Danish pop duo Junior Senior. Originally released in March 2002 in Denmark, an altered edition became available later in the year for the rest of continental Europe, and in 2003, the album was released in both the UK and US. Junior Senior are a party DJ duo, as evidenced by their smash single "Move Your Feet"...which every indie hipster holds a quiet appreciation of because it's...irrististable. DDDDSTB is packed full of goofy dancefloor fun, and Shake Your Coconuts is DEFINITELY the cheesiest of them all.

The novelty-rock band Barnes & Barnes performed a cover of this song on their 1986 album Sicks. A German version by Margrit Imlau was recorded, titled An-nana-nana-nas-Prinzessin.		1:10:08 (Pop-up)
Skeeter Davis	Please Don't Talk To the Lifeguard	Singin' In the Summer Sun	Sony	1966	Skeeter Davis was an American country music singer and songwriter who sang crossover pop music songs including 1962's "The End of the World". She started out as part of the Davis Sisters as a teenager in the late 1940s, eventually landing on RCA Victor. In the late 1950s, she became a solo star. One of the first women to achieve major stardom in the country music field as a solo vocalist, she was an acknowledged influence on Tammy Wynette and Dolly Parton and was hailed as an "extraordinary country/pop singer" by The New York Times music critic Robert Palmer. Davis penned nearly 70 songs over the course of her career, and earned two BMI awards: for "Set Him Free" and "My Last Date With You"		1:12:31 (Pop-up)

Nouvelle Vague feat. Eloisa	Blister in the Sun	3	Kwaidan	2004	3 is the third studio album by the French band Nouvelle Vague. It was released 16 June 2009 on Peacefrog Records. As with their previous releases, the album consists entirely of cover versions of post-punk and new wave songs from the 1970s and 1980s. The two questions that accompany projects like Nouvelle Vague are: “Are the covers any good?” and “Is this a worthwhile endeavor?” The answer to the first question is by and large yes, with a few caveats. I dunno, I think a proper good lounge cover definitely has a place on Echo Beach!		1:18:12 (Pop-up)
Juniore	Méditerranée "Méditerranée" by "Juniore"	Méditerranée Single	Le Phonographe	2024	Four long years on from their last full-length album release in 2020, French indie rockers Juniore have finally announced a new album, entitled Trois, Deux, Un. The album is due to be released later this year via Le Phonographe but, in the meantime, the band have treated audiences to a blistering new single, ‘Méditerranée’, to whet the appetite of rock and pop obsessives both in France and beyond. The first thing that audiences will notice when it comes to ‘Méditerranée’ is that the Parisian outfit have stuck with their own distinctive sound, storied by heavy basslines and an effortlessly cool vocal performance by Anna Jean. According to the band themselves, the song is “really only about describing the topless ladies at the beach in the south of France, their freedom and carefreeness”, and it certainly succeeds in capturing that atmosphere. The track is soaked in sunshine and the summer months, which makes a change from Juniore’s typically dark and moody sound...	*	1:21:30 (Pop-up)

John Lydon	Sun "Sun" by "John Lydon"	Psycho's Path	Virgin	1997	"Psycho's Path is a studio album by John Lydon, released by Virgin Records in 1997. It is his only solo album. Lydon sang on all the songs and played most of the instruments, with additional guitars and keyboards supplied by Martin Lydon and Mark Saunders. //// The album was mostly recorded in John Lydon's basement studio at his home in Los Angeles. Several remixes from the Chemical Brothers, Moby, Leftfield and Danny Saber were added to the album at the request of Virgin Records to lengthen the album and attract the listeners of the dance-club hit "Open Up" by Leftfield, which was remixed by the Chemical Brothers for the album. //// Virgin Records released the album and gave little, if any, commercial support for its release. A tour supporting the album was started and ended after only a few dates because of Lydon's anger for the lack of support. //// A music video for "Sun" was created with Lydon dancing and lip-synching in front of a blue screen. The video's premise is that of postcards which tell the story of a man who poisons his adulterous wife and ends up dancing on her grave. The Leftfield mix of the song was used for the music video, instead of Lydon’s original. //// Rolling Stone wrote that the album "features [Lydon's] most dissonant noises since PiL's 1981 Flowers of Romance.""		1:42:29 (Pop-up)
Cat Power	Sun "Sun" by "Cat Power"	Sun			"Sun is the ninth studio album by American musician Cat Power. Her first album of all-original material since 2006's The Greatest, it was released Sep 2012... Work on the album initially began soon after the release of The Greatest, with Marshall announcing the album's title as far back as 2006 in an interview with The New York Times, where she also claimed that the entire album had already been written. Marshall decided to finance the recording of Sun herself, following financial difficulties arising from the cancellation of a lengthy tour in 2006 due to her hospitalisation. She was later declared bankrupt, claiming "I had my house in foreclosure and I hadn't paid taxes in two years. So to get away from people second guessing me and wondering what I was going to do with the advance for this album, I said, 'I'm going to fucking pay for this shit myself.' I knew that'd be the only way I could control things. So I cashed out my retirement fund." Recording began sometime in 2007, with Marshall building a studio in her Malibu home to record and produce new songs herself. However, much of the material recorded up to this point was later abandoned when Marshall decided it was "too painful and personal to put out", stating "I was writing all these really slow guitar songs, and my friend said, 'This is like depressing old Cat Power,' which made me feel like I got shot. I didn't work for eight months after that." //// Progress on the album was delayed again with the recording and release of her second covers album Jukebox in 2008, and later by her relationship with Giovanni Ribisi. Following the tour in support of Jukebox, Marshall resumed recording at The Boat Studio in Silverlake, California, where she began work on newly written, electronic material, with Marshall claiming, "I had no fucking idea what to do, but I knew I was not going to even look at a piano or touch a guitar. So I started out with a weird synthesizer. Eventually I had these skeletons of songs, but then I felt like a failure because I thought, 'This is not fucking good, I don't know what I'm doing.' And I didn't know what I was doing. I had lyrics and a beat and notes, but I didn't have anything else. It sounded like a naked, shivering alien." This period of inactivity placed a strain on Marshall's relationship with her label Matador who, concerned by the lack of progress, began pressuring Marshall to work with a producer. Marshall—who hadn't worked with a producer since Ed Douglas recorded both Dear Sir and Myra Lee on the same day in December 1994—resisted, stating "Telling [a musician] they need a producer is like telling someone that they need a nose job. It activates something in you that makes you feel like a loser." //// It was around this time that Marshall regrouped at her home in Malibu with members of her backing band, the Dirty Delta Blues, to start preparation for a tour in the beginning of 2011. Rehearsing many of the "skeletal" new compositions she had written, the band would go on to perform ten previously unreleased songs over the course of the tour; including "Cherokee", "Ruin", "Real Life" and "Human Being", as well as another six that would later be excluded from the album—"Bully", "Brave Liar", "Horizon", "Let Me Go", "Monster" and "Woman of My Word". Hoping to rerecord these songs with the band following completion of the tour, these sessions, according to Marshall, "didn't work out the way [she] hoped", noting that "Ruin" is the only song on the album to feature contributions from the Dirty Delta Blues band. //// Production for the album continued at South Beach Studios in Miami, where Marshall began rerecording the instrumentation from the aborted Dirty Blues Band sessions. After hearing a song from the Beastie Boys album Hot Sauce Committee Part Two on the radio, she contacted that album's mixer, Cassius member Philippe Zdar, in the hope of a potential collaboration. Unable to pay Zdar for his mixing work until the album was finalised and presented to Matador for release, she transferred her work to Zdar's recording studio in France—where he worked pro bono—until sessions for the album finally concluded in April 2012.		1:46:21 (Pop-up)
John Cale	How We See The Light "How We See The Light" by "John Cale"	POPtical Illusion	Domino Recording Co.	2024	"Despite the album’s playful title, Cale’s second album in just over a year still contains the same feelings of fierce and inquisitive rage that were present in 2023 album MERCY. He remains angry, still incensed by the willful destruction that unchecked capitalists and unrepentant conmen have hoisted upon the wonders of this world and the goodness of its people. But this is not at all MERCY II, or some collection of castoffs, as throughout his career of more than six decades, Cale has never been much for repetition. His vanguard-shaping enthusiasms have shifted among ecstatic classicism and unbound rock, classic songcraft and electronic reimagination with proud restlessness. //// And so, on POPtical Illusion, he foregoes the illustrious cast to burrow mostly alone into mazes of synthesizers and samples, organs and pianos, with words that, as far as Cale goes, constitute a sort of swirling hope, a sage insistence that change is yet possible. Produced by Cale and longtime artistic partner Nita Scott, POPtical Illusion is the work of someone trying to turn toward the future – exactly as Cale always has."	*	1:49:41 (Pop-up)
Music behind DJ: Colin Fisher	Acts Of Light "Acts Of Light" by "Colin Fisher"	Suns of the Heart	We Are Busy Bodies	2024	"Suns of the Heart (out July 12th) is Colin's Fisher's follow up to Reflections of the Invisible World and the preceding album V le Pape. //// Suns of the Heart was created as part of the process of building on the relationship of documenting Fisher's live solo process and augmenting it over the course of 3 records with studio compositional ideas. //// With Suns of the Heart, Fisher connected with his good friend David Psutka, who released Reflections of the Invisible World on his label Halocline Trance, to engineer and produce the project. //// The concept for the album was to deconstruct Fisher's live process and apply a studio sampling methodology from hip hop to establish foundational layers for each track. Psutka was the perfect partner for this endeavor considering his long history of electronic music as well as his appreciation for interesting conceptual ideas. //// Psutka essentially became a co-composer for a few tracks and was an indispensable force in constructing this unique document. Together they sampled various sounds, textures, incidental sounds from me on various instruments, reconfigured them in Psutka's daw and then built compositions on top of them. //// Conceptually this is a reflection of Fisher's live process, where he samples and loops sounds in transparent ways and orchestrate textures, sounds, chord changes into fully realized compositions in real time. The freedom in the studio scenario enables complete separation of each sound and texture for mixing, orchestration and composition. The result is a compelling augmentation of his live process with the addition of Psutka's skill and conceptual sense for an entire new synthesis of ideas to something not previously possible or imaginable. //// The album title and track titles were all inspired by the work of Henry Corbin." ////////// >a href="https://colinalexanderfisher.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">https://colinalexanderfisher.bandcamp.com/	*	1:54:24 (Pop-up)
Franco Battiato	Summer on a Solitary Beach	La Voce Del Padrone (Remastered 2021)	Universal	1981	Francesco "Franco" Battiato was an Italian musician, singer, composer, filmmaker and, under the pseudonym Süphan Barzani, also a painter. He passed away at the age of 76 in 2021. Battiato's songs contain esoteric, philosophical and religious themes, and have spanned genres such as experimental pop, electronic music, progressive rock, opera, symphonic music, movie soundtrack, oratorio and new wave. He was for decades one of the most popular singer-songwriters in Italy. His unique sound, song-crafting and especially his lyrics, often containing philosophical, religious, and culturally exotic references, as well as tackling or painting universal themes about the human condition earned him a unique spot on Italy's music scene, and the nickname of "Il Maestro"		1:57:05 (Pop-up)

	8:52pm Tyler: ↳ ultradamno @8:50 Well, that would have to be 'Rowche Rumble'! :)
	8:53pm ultradamno: That's no place for valium!

	9:27pm Alli B: Never heard this version before. Very sultry
	9:27pm DJ Babs: ↳ Tyler @9:26 It's "cool" summer. Wrapped in Linen...lol
	9:28pm v-dawg: ↳ Tyler @9:25 I only visited briefly at the end my Toronto trip. It seemed like a cool place to me.
	9:28pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @9:27 Almost Black, rather (pt 1, I think)
	9:28pm DJ Babs: did you get the kings crown nachos v-Dawg?
	9:29pm Alli B: Omg remember when it was $20 for a Kings Crown and pitcher?! Wasn’t even really that long ago.
	9:30pm Tyler: ↳ v-dawg @9:28 NICE! <3 Sneaky Dee's. Best Nacho's & Wings in town, IMO. And best value around...
	9:30pm ultradamno: Ever hear Aloha Swamp (Messer Chups tiki one off side project)? messer-chups.bandcamp.com...
	9:31pm Tyler: ↳ Alli B @9:29 Alli, everything is half-price on Mondays, and there are individual half-price specials throughout the week. Bless Sneaks, they've been lowering their prices while everyone else is raising theres...
	9:32pm Tyler: ↳ Alli B @9:29 But, yeah, otherwise, King's Crown are $30
	9:36pm v-dawg: This was a long, long time ago. So i do not remember. That Toronto trip was not very good trip, for reasons that i will not explain here.
	9:42pm Tyler: Wow! Haven't heard this one in a while. They used to play it at clubs in the 80's & 90's. Think I have it on one of those Rough Trade Rcords comps..
	9:42pm DJ Babs: Awww that sucks. Well you’ll have to come back and make new memories!
	9:43pm DJ Babs: ↳ ultradamno @9:30 No I will have to check out!

	9:43pm DJ Babs: ↳ v-dawg @9:36 I love minimal synth in the summertime. It works well…
	9:44pm DJ Babs: NICE. NIIIIIIIIIIICE
	9:45pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Song: "Sun" by "John Lydon" That's right... John Lydon's solo album and a song about the Sun (ostensibly)... Am I the only one who loves this (song in particular)? It seems the world didn't care...
	9:47pm laurapanic: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:45 I'm intrigued by the blurb you wrote tho!
	9:47pm v-dawg: ↳ DJ Babs @9:42 The trip was not all bad; it just was not a good vacation. For what it's worth, the idea of visited some surrounding areas was considered, including Hamilton.
	9:47pm Tyler: Haven't heard this Lydon album. This song is pretty excellent!
	9:49pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Sun" by "Cat Power" this whole album is a fave. What happens when you tell a woman that she needs to write a hit album....which she does - I mean top 10 on the US mainstream charts.....but then drop her after it anyway.
	9:49pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Tyler @9:47 Well, it kinda is the standout... The album itself is pretty "uneven", to be somewhat generous.
	9:50pm Tyler: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:49 Thanks, Derek. Will have to give it a listen.
	9:51pm Tyler: ↳ laurapanic @9:49 Classic industry move. :( I believe she's on tour with someone right now, but I can't think of who it is.
	9:51pm DJ Babs: ↳ v-dawg @9:47 Hamilton is super fun!!!!
	9:51pm Alli B: Love Hamilton
	9:51pm laurapanic: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:49 nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
	9:52pm Tyler: I have JC's 'Mercy' but am definitely want to also get this one. Have been impressed with what I've heard from it. JC is a treasure.
	9:53pm Sufferwords: Cale forever
	9:53pm GrumpyTrev: What did I miss?
	9:53pm v-dawg: It would be nice to get back to Canada. I cannot even get out of NJ as often as i would like.
	9:54pm Tyler: ↳ DJ Babs @9:51 I wish the Go Train would go to Hamilton. So difficult to get to if you aren't running a car...
	9:54pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ laurapanic @9:47 Thanks Laura, btw... Technically I didn't write the blurb... It's in quotation marks now... As it should be for a cut&paste...
	9:54pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ GrumpyTrev @9:53 GrumpyT... Really not much.
	9:54pm ultradamno: ↳ laurapanic @9:49 Reminds me of when Chloe Howl was propped up as the next big thing and then just cut
	9:55pm v-dawg: Of course, today, anyone who lives on the Northeast Corridor from Philadelphia to New Haven cannot get anywhere easlily.
	9:55pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Sufferwords @9:53 Sufferwords, hello! And Yes! And nice to see you in the chat!
	9:55pm GrumpyTrev: Hey Derek 🙂❤️
	9:55pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ GrumpyTrev @9:55 Hey Trev!
	9:55pm Alli B: Moon is real purdy
	9:55pm Tyler: ↳ v-dawg @9:55 Is Amtrak having issues?
	9:56pm Scobot: I can’t be the only one who thinks that Depeche Mode was influenced by Cale. Is that far fetched?
	🏝 9:56pm Scott_Oz: Thanks Babs & Derek, great show guys. Now I may go out back & drink wine, eat cheese & catch some rays. In honour of Donald "Oddball" "Hawkeye" Sutherland. 🌏🌞🍷😎🤙🧀🥖❣️
	9:56pm Bob Barth: Hey everybody join me this way into the next hour! wfmu.org...
	9:57pm v-dawg: Oh yeah, i almost forgot. The sun sets after 9:00PM today in Toronto, right?
	9:57pm laurapanic: Bob is the best, everyone should listen.
	9:58pm Tom P in Brooklyn: Excellent show D&B. Thanks!
	9:58pm Bob Barth: Derek & Babs!! YOU'RE THE BEST!!
	9:58pm Tyler: ↳ v-dawg @9:57 Well, sunset should have been after 9, but we had a storm front, so it's been darkish since 7 or so...
	9:58pm v-dawg: ↳ Tyler @9:55 OH YEAH. A circuit breaker malfunction and there are huge problems. There were problems 2 weeks ago and 4 weeks ago too.
	9:59pm GrumpyTrev: Great show... From what I heard of it. 😉😋🙂❤️
	9:59pm DJ Babs: Thank you Trev! Grea to see ya! Thank you EVERYONE for joining in tonight! Always always a pleasure!!!
	10:00pm v-dawg: You guys read my mind...una canzone italiana.
	10:00pm DJ Babs: Have an amazing week and...stay hydrated!!!
	10:00pm Tyler: ↳ v-dawg @9:58 CRIPES! Good times! I have been speaking to my co-workers in Calgary that had a major water-main break right before Stampede, so they're all on a water ration until it's fixed...
	10:00pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Scobot @9:56 Scobot, likely not... And hello!
	10:00pm Derek Westerholm: Thanks for being here all you amazing 'FMU-ers & beach pals!
	10:01pm Tyler: Thanks Derek, Babs & the people on Echo Beach for another good time. Have a good night!
	10:01pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Tyler @10:01 You too, Tyler & all & all!
	10:02pm Tyler: ↳ Derek Westerholm @10:01 Thanks, Derek. Keep cool...
	10:02pm v-dawg: ↳ Tyler @10:00 That sucks. 2 years ago, major water-main break in Newark. Huge problems with pressure and they had to redirect water lines, even from hydrants!
	10:03pm v-dawg: Good night all and thanks guys.

James White And The Blacks	(Tropical) Heat Wave	"Off White"	ZE Records	1979	R.I.P. James Chance. (nee James Siegfried") "Off White is a 1979 album by American no wave band James White and the Blacks. //// In late 1978, ZE Records co-founder Michael Zilkha approached James Chance and offered Chance $10,000 to record a disco album. Zilkha gave little direction and asked the band for its own take on the genre. Anya Phillips, Chance's manager and girlfriend, came up with the idea to rename James Chance and the Contortions to James White and the Blacks for the album. An alternate name, James White and His Blacks, was rejected by Zilkha. Phillips and the band put together outfits resembling 1960s soul singers. //// Chance said that he was interested in the monotonous sound of disco music because it "doesn't have beginnings and ends". His persona is an homage to soul and funk musician James Brown. Chance was also intrigued by the shock value of a punk group embracing disco. He received disco records for free and passed time listening to a record for several seconds before throwing it out a window. Chance wrote a piece for the first issue of East Village Eye, praising disco and denouncing "outdated, cornball 'new/no wave' drivel". //// Off White includes contributions from Lydia Lunch, Robert Quine, and Vivienne Dick. The band spent most of their budget recording the album's first side and used instrumentals for the second side. The album often discusses racial issues, and most of its titles are references to race. Some responded to the Off White with accusations of racism. Chance later responded, "I was the one that brought black music onto the whole punk scene, and I took a lot of shit for it…I was just playing with my whole image of a white person doing black music." //// James White and the Blacks promoted the album with a February 1979 performance at Club 57 in the East Village, Manhattan. ZE rented Irving Plaza for the album's launch party, where the band lip synced its songs. The band's live performances included two teenage dancers called the Disco Lolitas. //// The band released "Contort Yourself" as a 12" vinyl single. The song originally appeared on Buy, and the group re-recorded it with a disco beat. Chance observed that the tempo was too fast to be played in discos, so ZE labelmate August Darnell created a remix of it. Darnell used a slower tempo and wrote a new guitar part. James White and the Blacks' version of "Contort Yourself" was later included in ZE's 1981 Mutant Disco compilation, its 2003 NY No Wave compilation, Strut Records' 2008 Disco Not Disco 3, and ZE's 2009 compilation for its 30th anniversary.""		0:00:00 (Pop-up)

Iggy Pop & The Trolls	Here Comes The Summer	Skull Ring	Virgin Records	2003	Skull Ring is the fourteenth studio album by American rock singer Iggy Pop, released in November 2003. Every track on the album features guest performers. The performers are The Stooges, The Trolls, Green Day, Sum 41 to name a few. The performers on most of the tracks on the album are The Trolls, Iggy's band from the Beat 'Em Up era. Members of his original band The Stooges also appear on some of the tracks. This album was pretty much universally panned..and for good reason...but this tune is a standout and the Trolls are doing their best...		0:09:49 (Pop-up)
The Forgotten Rebels	Surfin' On Heroin	Surfin' On Heroin	Restless Records	1988	A raged group of youth from Hamilton Canada in the late 70s were to bring a decidedly more offensive level, more in your face, and more obscene than anyone had ever dared, and the Forgotten Rebels spend the next 20 plus years influencing many new bands and making a mark that was there’s alone. Although it was done as a “let’s just get any reaction” statement, the tongue and cheek humor of the band was to be their Achilles heel forever. They have shared bills with The Clash, Ramones, Iggy Pop, The Cramps, and many others. "I can only speak to the late 70’s but it was an exciting time. Hamilton always had a strong, independent music scene. There were lots of cool bands of inspired people at that time, who picked up an instrument and learned to play. We had no lessons, but just tried to nail the sound of bands like The Stooges, New York Dolls or the Ramones. Hamilton was a lot like Detroit. We were a steel town rife with bikers and rednecks, but with that came a rawness that you could hear in the music."....		0:14:35 (Pop-up)
Parquet Courts	Sunbathing Animal "Sunbathing Animal" by "Parquet Courts"	Sunbathing Animal	What's Your Rupture?	2014	Sunbathing Animal is Parquet Courts' Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain, a record that focuses more on structure as the band deploys melodic tricks with greater subtlety and precision....it sounds like the work of long-distance pavement-pounders who have learned when to store up energy, and when to release it. As an album, it's impeccably structured, with the slow-burn cuts placed in just the right places to break up the band's steady crunch. "Sunbathing Animal" is four minutes of impassioned fury that doubles as a solid punk tune and as a speed-addled take on pre-Beatles rock'n'roll—but forget the video, all you need is the lyric sheet to tell that Savage is singing from the perspective of a housecat. "I want to flee/ But I can only stare," he laments furiously, one of many times that he and Brown get lyrically weird on Sunbathing Animal.		0:17:22 (Pop-up)
Sleaford Mods	Air Conditioning "Air Conditioning" by "Sleaford Mods"	Divide and Exit	Harbinger Sound	2014	Sleaford Mods snap at you, lumber at you, insult you, your friends, probably some of your family too.

After an ill-fated stint with major record label Hollywood Records, health problems and industry frustrations in the wake of their success led to the group's 1995 breakup.		0:28:13 (Pop-up)

The Fall	Get A Summer Song Goin' "Get A Summer Song Goin'" by "The Fall"	Your Future Our Clutter	Domino Recording Co.	2010	(Thus far only available as an exclusive track on the vinyl version of the album) --- It officially turned to summer just a few hours ago here in our EST. We generally have a policy of trying to avoid playing the same song twice (if we can help it), but making an exception for this song which is turning out to be one of the rarer Fall tracks around. To my knowledge it's not been on any other format, compilation, live album, or anything other than the original double vinyl from 2010. Alllllsoooo... This harkens back to our very first show on July 8, 2021. Three summers flying by... Incidentally, this happens to be a killer Fall song, too. The final Fall guitarist Pete Greenway counts this song amongst his favourites he'd performed... "PG: My favourite songs from my tenure in the band are from the albums Your Future, Our Clutter, and the last LP New Facts Emerge, namely "Hot Cake" and "Chino" with its woozy bass line. "Get a Summer Song Goin'," which we all thought would be a summer hit but was relegated to the vinyl only version of the release (Your Future, Our Clutter)."

Music behind DJ: A Man Called Adam	The Longest Day (Piano Rerub Album Version)	Love Forgotten - Oddities & Rarities Part 2	Other	2021	"A Man Called Adam’s Sally Rodgers and Steve Jones have been making pioneering electronic music since the late 80s.

Grandaddy	Summer Here Kids "Summer Here Kids" by "Grandaddy"	Under the Western Freeway	V2	1998	he history of Grandaddy, who were once hailed as an American answer to Radiohead, is a story of almosts and what-could-have-beens. From the start, Under the Western Freeway established Grandaddy’s deft ability to intertwine warm melodies and wry insights, opening a curtain on their corner of the world...Under the Western Freeway is a melancholy album that doesn’t mope; it’s rooted in the kind of gradual losses that fade into the fabric of a life. Lytle’s reassuring melodies take influence from Jeff Lynne and Neil Young, for a style that still feels wiser than most indie-rock debuts. And the contradictions at this band’s heart—nature vs. technology, electronic vs. organic—have hardly become obsolete over the last 20 years, even if it has arguably become harder to make a career singing about them.		1:04:11 (Pop-up)

The two questions that accompany projects like Nouvelle Vague are: “Are the covers any good?” and “Is this a worthwhile endeavor?” The answer to the first question is by and large yes, with a few caveats.

Juniore	Méditerranée "Méditerranée" by "Juniore"	Méditerranée Single	Le Phonographe	2024	Four long years on from their last full-length album release in 2020, French indie rockers Juniore have finally announced a new album, entitled Trois, Deux, Un. The album is due to be released later this year via Le Phonographe but, in the meantime, the band have treated audiences to a blistering new single, ‘Méditerranée’, to whet the appetite of rock and pop obsessives both in France and beyond. The first thing that audiences will notice when it comes to ‘Méditerranée’ is that the Parisian outfit have stuck with their own distinctive sound, storied by heavy basslines and an effortlessly cool vocal performance by Anna Jean. According to the band themselves, the song is “really only about describing the topless ladies at the beach in the south of France, their freedom and carefreeness”, and it certainly succeeds in capturing that atmosphere. The track is soaked in sunshine and the summer months, which makes a change from Juniore’s typically dark and moody sound...	*	1:21:30 (Pop-up)

John Lydon	Sun "Sun" by "John Lydon"	Psycho's Path	Virgin	1997	"Psycho's Path is a studio album by John Lydon, released by Virgin Records in 1997. It is his only solo album. Lydon sang on all the songs and played most of the instruments, with additional guitars and keyboards supplied by Martin Lydon and Mark Saunders. //// The album was mostly recorded in John Lydon's basement studio at his home in Los Angeles. Several remixes from the Chemical Brothers, Moby, Leftfield and Danny Saber were added to the album at the request of Virgin Records to lengthen the album and attract the listeners of the dance-club hit "Open Up" by Leftfield, which was remixed by the Chemical Brothers for the album. //// Virgin Records released the album and gave little, if any, commercial support for its release. A tour supporting the album was started and ended after only a few dates because of Lydon's anger for the lack of support. //// A music video for "Sun" was created with Lydon dancing and lip-synching in front of a blue screen. The video's premise is that of postcards which tell the story of a man who poisons his adulterous wife and ends up dancing on her grave. The Leftfield mix of the song was used for the music video, instead of Lydon’s original. //// Rolling Stone wrote that the album "features [Lydon's] most dissonant noises since PiL's 1981 Flowers of Romance.""		1:42:29 (Pop-up)
Cat Power	Sun "Sun" by "Cat Power"	Sun			"Sun is the ninth studio album by American musician Cat Power. Her first album of all-original material since 2006's The Greatest, it was released Sep 2012... Work on the album initially began soon after the release of The Greatest, with Marshall announcing the album's title as far back as 2006 in an interview with The New York Times, where she also claimed that the entire album had already been written. Marshall decided to finance the recording of Sun herself, following financial difficulties arising from the cancellation of a lengthy tour in 2006 due to her hospitalisation. She was later declared bankrupt, claiming "I had my house in foreclosure and I hadn't paid taxes in two years. So to get away from people second guessing me and wondering what I was going to do with the advance for this album, I said, 'I'm going to fucking pay for this shit myself.' I knew that'd be the only way I could control things. So I cashed out my retirement fund." Recording began sometime in 2007, with Marshall building a studio in her Malibu home to record and produce new songs herself. However, much of the material recorded up to this point was later abandoned when Marshall decided it was "too painful and personal to put out", stating "I was writing all these really slow guitar songs, and my friend said, 'This is like depressing old Cat Power,' which made me feel like I got shot. I didn't work for eight months after that." //// Progress on the album was delayed again with the recording and release of her second covers album Jukebox in 2008, and later by her relationship with Giovanni Ribisi. Following the tour in support of Jukebox, Marshall resumed recording at The Boat Studio in Silverlake, California, where she began work on newly written, electronic material, with Marshall claiming, "I had no fucking idea what to do, but I knew I was not going to even look at a piano or touch a guitar. So I started out with a weird synthesizer. Eventually I had these skeletons of songs, but then I felt like a failure because I thought, 'This is not fucking good, I don't know what I'm doing.' And I didn't know what I was doing. I had lyrics and a beat and notes, but I didn't have anything else. It sounded like a naked, shivering alien." This period of inactivity placed a strain on Marshall's relationship with her label Matador who, concerned by the lack of progress, began pressuring Marshall to work with a producer. Marshall—who hadn't worked with a producer since Ed Douglas recorded both Dear Sir and Myra Lee on the same day in December 1994—resisted, stating "Telling [a musician] they need a producer is like telling someone that they need a nose job. It activates something in you that makes you feel like a loser." //// It was around this time that Marshall regrouped at her home in Malibu with members of her backing band, the Dirty Delta Blues, to start preparation for a tour in the beginning of 2011. Rehearsing many of the "skeletal" new compositions she had written, the band would go on to perform ten previously unreleased songs over the course of the tour; including "Cherokee", "Ruin", "Real Life" and "Human Being", as well as another six that would later be excluded from the album—"Bully", "Brave Liar", "Horizon", "Let Me Go", "Monster" and "Woman of My Word". Hoping to rerecord these songs with the band following completion of the tour, these sessions, according to Marshall, "didn't work out the way [she] hoped", noting that "Ruin" is the only song on the album to feature contributions from the Dirty Delta Blues band. //// Production for the album continued at South Beach Studios in Miami, where Marshall began rerecording the instrumentation from the aborted Dirty Blues Band sessions. After hearing a song from the Beastie Boys album Hot Sauce Committee Part Two on the radio, she contacted that album's mixer, Cassius member Philippe Zdar, in the hope of a potential collaboration. Unable to pay Zdar for his mixing work until the album was finalised and presented to Matador for release, she transferred her work to Zdar's recording studio in France—where he worked pro bono—until sessions for the album finally concluded in April 2012.		1:46:21 (Pop-up)
John Cale	How We See The Light "How We See The Light" by "John Cale"	POPtical Illusion	Domino Recording Co.	2024	"Despite the album’s playful title, Cale’s second album in just over a year still contains the same feelings of fierce and inquisitive rage that were present in 2023 album MERCY. He remains angry, still incensed by the willful destruction that unchecked capitalists and unrepentant conmen have hoisted upon the wonders of this world and the goodness of its people. But this is not at all MERCY II, or some collection of castoffs, as throughout his career of more than six decades, Cale has never been much for repetition. His vanguard-shaping enthusiasms have shifted among ecstatic classicism and unbound rock, classic songcraft and electronic reimagination with proud restlessness. //// And so, on POPtical Illusion, he foregoes the illustrious cast to burrow mostly alone into mazes of synthesizers and samples, organs and pianos, with words that, as far as Cale goes, constitute a sort of swirling hope, a sage insistence that change is yet possible. Produced by Cale and longtime artistic partner Nita Scott, POPtical Illusion is the work of someone trying to turn toward the future – exactly as Cale always has."	*	1:49:41 (Pop-up)

Psutka was the perfect partner for this endeavor considering his long history of electronic music as well as his appreciation for interesting conceptual ideas. //// Psutka essentially became a co-composer for a few tracks and was an indispensable force in constructing this unique document. Together they sampled various sounds, textures, incidental sounds from me on various instruments, reconfigured them in Psutka's daw and then built compositions on top of them. //// Conceptually this is a reflection of Fisher's live process, where he samples and loops sounds in transparent ways and orchestrate textures, sounds, chord changes into fully realized compositions in real time. The freedom in the studio scenario enables complete separation of each sound and texture for mixing, orchestration and composition. The result is a compelling augmentation of his live process with the addition of Psutka's skill and conceptual sense for an entire new synthesis of ideas to something not previously possible or imaginable. //// The album title and track titles were all inspired by the work of Henry Corbin." ////////// >a href="https://colinalexanderfisher.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">https://colinalexanderfisher.bandcamp.com/	*	1:54:24 (Pop-up)

He passed away at the age of 76 in 2021. Battiato's songs contain esoteric, philosophical and religious themes, and have spanned genres such as experimental pop, electronic music, progressive rock, opera, symphonic music, movie soundtrack, oratorio and new wave. He was for decades one of the most popular singer-songwriters in Italy. His unique sound, song-crafting and especially his lyrics, often containing philosophical, religious, and culturally exotic references, as well as tackling or painting universal themes about the human condition earned him a unique spot on Italy's music scene, and the nickname of "Il Maestro"		1:57:05 (Pop-up)

	🏝 8:34pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Tom P in Brooklyn @8:02 G'day Tom!🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	8:36pm Tyler: There is a splash zone at Sleaford Mods' shows where if you dare to venture, you may be spit on... :)
	8:37pm Tyler: We almost got the Forgotten Rebels to play our high school until the VP heard their record :)
	8:39pm DJ Babs: Heya Tyler!!!
	8:40pm DJ Babs: ↳ Tyler @8:36 Yeah…we saw the Mods from the back and that was quite adequate. What a fun show they put on!!!
	8:40pm Tyler: Hi There, Babs!

	8:43pm ultradamno: I didn't like Take The Skinheads Bowling either...they kind of ran in together as twee responses to hardcore
	8:43pm Tyler: For some reason, this Fall song reminds me of a dryer in a laundry mat...
	8:43pm DJ Babs: ↳ laurapanic @8:42 HELOOOOOO LAURA!!!
	8:43pm laurapanic: ↳ Tyler @8:42 THAT SONG IS almost perfect
	8:44pm DJ Babs: It’s true it really is a banger!

	8:44pm Tom P in Brooklyn: ↳ Song: "Get A Summer Song Goin'" by "The Fall" Thx for The Fall!
	8:44pm DJ Babs: If we are lucky Derek will tell us the story behind it….oh it’s in the comments LOL

	8:45pm ultradamno: It's hard to imagine The Fall in summer...they are fall and winter made sense....but the rest of the year
	8:45pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Tyler @8:43 " @8:43 Tyler: For some reason, this Fall song reminds me of a dryer in a laundry mat..." Haha... Excellent! Hello Tyler!
	8:46pm DJ Babs: This tune is a rager!

	8:50pm Alli B: I just made the most delectable iced coffee and it’s so good that I felt the need to talk about it 😂
	8:51pm Tyler: ↳ Alli B @8:50 <3 Cheers, Alli! I have me own Iced Coffee going here Con Ron!
	8:51pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Beautiful Summer" by "Primal Scream" Every now and then I recall how one of the e-street band tried to get them over here and got all honked off because they backed out over heroin supply concerns...it's called priorities, man.
	8:52pm Tyler: ↳ ultradamno @8:50 Well, that would have to be 'Rowche Rumble'! :)
	8:53pm ultradamno: That's no place for valium!
	8:53pm DJ Babs: ↳ Alli B @8:50 Mmmmmm I can’t drink coffee at night no way!
	8:53pm DJ Babs: ↳ Tyler @8:51 Mmmmm
	8:54pm DJ Babs: ↳ ultradamno @8:51 The E street band really !? Go figure lol. I do love the scream oh so much.
	8:54pm laurapanic: JAMC were always gonna have a summer song for you. PS: everyone listen to the new album it is great.
	8:55pm Alli B: You guys are annihilating this show
	8:55pm DJ Babs: ↳ ultradamno @8:50 Lol Derek could probably find some random connection lol
	8:55pm Tyler: God Help Me I got my JAMC tickets this week! So many concerts this Fall - always FEAST or FAMINE around here...
	8:55pm ultradamno: ↳ DJ Babs @8:54 Little Steven www.interviewmagazine.com...

	9:16pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Pineapple Princess" by "Annette Funicello" Annette in bondage 1.bp.blogspot.com...
	9:16pm DJ Babs: ↳ Alli B @9:15 I love that she brought the same energy to "The End of the World" as she did to a fluff tune about a lifeguard LOL PROFESSIONAL
	9:17pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @9:16 (off "bound to be a fun night")
	9:17pm DJ Babs: ↳ ultradamno @9:16 phew I thought that was gonna be a very different pic LOL
	9:17pm Feldy: Hi guys!!
	9:17pm Alli B: The End of the World honestly chokes me up EVERY. TIME.
	9:17pm ultradamno: Sadly...just a Goldfoot outtake
	9:19pm DJ Babs: HI FELDY!!!!!!!
	9:19pm DJ Babs: ↳ Alli B @9:17 oh agreeeeeeeed!
	9:20pm Alli B: Perfect! Ugh! This showwwwww

	9:21pm Bob Barth: ↳ Song: "Blister in the Sun" by "Nouvelle Vague feat. Eloisa" This is WILD! Hey D & B!! Great show tonight!
	9:21pm Derek Westerholm: I just poked my head outside... Still glimmers of brown/orange in the non-stormy clouds.
	9:21pm DJ Babs: Hello Hello Bob!!!!!!!
	9:22pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Bob Barth @9:21 Hey BobB... Thanks! What's in store for Sheena's next on your "One Night Stand"?
	9:22pm DJ Babs: ↳ Alli B @9:20 We aim to please!!! ❤️
	9:23pm v-dawg: ↳ Tyler @9:09 Should i assume that this is place is related to Sneaky Dees of Toronto?
	9:23pm ultradamno: There's a Maxxxine bus tour www.fangoria.com...
	9:23pm DJ Babs: This is one for hanging out in the pool on your floaty mattress drinking a cocktail and smoking and wearing sunglasses and a big hat.
	9:24pm DJ Babs: ↳ v-dawg @9:23 It is! The one and only!
	9:24pm Bob Barth: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:22 Derek! Thank you For asking we are DOUBLE STUFFED with greatness tonight We're going to start off with Seth Avett of The Avett Brothers and then we're going to follow that up with a DISCO EXPLOSION!! Plus a whole lot more. Stay tuned folks!

	9:25pm Tyler: ↳ v-dawg @9:23 Yes, indeed!
	9:26pm Bob Barth: ↳ DJ Babs @9:24 Thats Right Babs! You better start stretching! lol
	9:26pm Tyler: This is a summer song for those that never perspire :)
	9:27pm ultradamno: Speaking of James Chance being tasked with doing disco and maybe not getting it...there is a line on Almost White "he's got the moves ...but they ain't right"
	9:27pm Alli B: Never heard this version before. Very sultry
	9:27pm DJ Babs: ↳ Tyler @9:26 It's "cool" summer. Wrapped in Linen...lol
	9:28pm v-dawg: ↳ Tyler @9:25 I only visited briefly at the end my Toronto trip. It seemed like a cool place to me.
	9:28pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @9:27 Almost Black, rather (pt 1, I think)
	9:28pm DJ Babs: did you get the kings crown nachos v-Dawg?
	9:29pm Alli B: Omg remember when it was $20 for a Kings Crown and pitcher?! Wasn’t even really that long ago.
	9:30pm Tyler: ↳ v-dawg @9:28 NICE! <3 Sneaky Dee's. Best Nacho's & Wings in town, IMO. And best value around...
	9:30pm ultradamno: Ever hear Aloha Swamp (Messer Chups tiki one off side project)? messer-chups.bandcamp.com...
	9:31pm Tyler: ↳ Alli B @9:29 Alli, everything is half-price on Mondays, and there are individual half-price specials throughout the week. Bless Sneaks, they've been lowering their prices while everyone else is raising theres...
	9:32pm Tyler: ↳ Alli B @9:29 But, yeah, otherwise, King's Crown are $30
	9:36pm v-dawg: This was a long, long time ago. So i do not remember. That Toronto trip was not very good trip, for reasons that i will not explain here.
	9:42pm Tyler: Wow! Haven't heard this one in a while. They used to play it at clubs in the 80's & 90's. Think I have it on one of those Rough Trade Rcords comps..
	9:42pm DJ Babs: Awww that sucks. Well you’ll have to come back and make new memories!
	9:43pm DJ Babs: ↳ ultradamno @9:30 No I will have to check out!
	9:43pm Tyler: ↳ v-dawg @9:36 We'll show you some good times if you come back around!
	9:43pm DJ Babs: ↳ v-dawg @9:36 I love minimal synth in the summertime. It works well…
	9:44pm DJ Babs: NICE. NIIIIIIIIIIICE
	9:45pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Song: "Sun" by "John Lydon" That's right... John Lydon's solo album and a song about the Sun (ostensibly)... Am I the only one who loves this (song in particular)? It seems the world didn't care...
	9:47pm laurapanic: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:45 I'm intrigued by the blurb you wrote tho!
	9:47pm v-dawg: ↳ DJ Babs @9:42 The trip was not all bad; it just was not a good vacation. For what it's worth, the idea of visited some surrounding areas was considered, including Hamilton.
	9:47pm Tyler: Haven't heard this Lydon album. This song is pretty excellent!
	9:49pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Sun" by "Cat Power" this whole album is a fave. What happens when you tell a woman that she needs to write a hit album....which she does - I mean top 10 on the US mainstream charts.....but then drop her after it anyway.
	9:49pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Tyler @9:47 Well, it kinda is the standout... The album itself is pretty "uneven", to be somewhat generous.
	9:50pm Tyler: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:49 Thanks, Derek. Will have to give it a listen.
	9:51pm Tyler: ↳ laurapanic @9:49 Classic industry move. :( I believe she's on tour with someone right now, but I can't think of who it is.
	9:51pm DJ Babs: ↳ v-dawg @9:47 Hamilton is super fun!!!!
	9:51pm Alli B: Love Hamilton
	9:51pm laurapanic: ↳ Derek Westerholm @9:49 nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
	9:52pm Tyler: I have JC's 'Mercy' but am definitely want to also get this one. Have been impressed with what I've heard from it. JC is a treasure.
	9:53pm Sufferwords: Cale forever
	9:53pm GrumpyTrev: What did I miss?
	9:53pm v-dawg: It would be nice to get back to Canada. I cannot even get out of NJ as often as i would like.
	9:54pm Tyler: ↳ DJ Babs @9:51 I wish the Go Train would go to Hamilton. So difficult to get to if you aren't running a car...
	9:54pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ laurapanic @9:47 Thanks Laura, btw... Technically I didn't write the blurb... It's in quotation marks now... As it should be for a cut&paste...
	9:54pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ GrumpyTrev @9:53 GrumpyT... Really not much.
	9:54pm ultradamno: ↳ laurapanic @9:49 Reminds me of when Chloe Howl was propped up as the next big thing and then just cut
	9:55pm v-dawg: Of course, today, anyone who lives on the Northeast Corridor from Philadelphia to New Haven cannot get anywhere easlily.
	9:55pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Sufferwords @9:53 Sufferwords, hello! And Yes! And nice to see you in the chat!
	9:55pm GrumpyTrev: Hey Derek 🙂❤️
	9:55pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ GrumpyTrev @9:55 Hey Trev!
	9:55pm Alli B: Moon is real purdy
	9:55pm Tyler: ↳ v-dawg @9:55 Is Amtrak having issues?
	9:56pm Scobot: I can’t be the only one who thinks that Depeche Mode was influenced by Cale. Is that far fetched?
	🏝 9:56pm Scott_Oz: Thanks Babs & Derek, great show guys. Now I may go out back & drink wine, eat cheese & catch some rays. In honour of Donald "Oddball" "Hawkeye" Sutherland. 🌏🌞🍷😎🤙🧀🥖❣️
	9:56pm Bob Barth: Hey everybody join me this way into the next hour! wfmu.org...
	9:57pm v-dawg: Oh yeah, i almost forgot. The sun sets after 9:00PM today in Toronto, right?
	9:57pm laurapanic: Bob is the best, everyone should listen.
	9:58pm Tom P in Brooklyn: Excellent show D&B. Thanks!
	9:58pm Bob Barth: Derek & Babs!! YOU'RE THE BEST!!
	9:58pm Tyler: ↳ v-dawg @9:57 Well, sunset should have been after 9, but we had a storm front, so it's been darkish since 7 or so...
	9:58pm v-dawg: ↳ Tyler @9:55 OH YEAH. A circuit breaker malfunction and there are huge problems. There were problems 2 weeks ago and 4 weeks ago too.
	9:59pm GrumpyTrev: Great show... From what I heard of it. 😉😋🙂❤️
	9:59pm DJ Babs: Thank you Trev! Grea to see ya! Thank you EVERYONE for joining in tonight! Always always a pleasure!!!
	10:00pm v-dawg: You guys read my mind...una canzone italiana.
	10:00pm DJ Babs: Have an amazing week and...stay hydrated!!!
	10:00pm Tyler: ↳ v-dawg @9:58 CRIPES! Good times! I have been speaking to my co-workers in Calgary that had a major water-main break right before Stampede, so they're all on a water ration until it's fixed...
	10:00pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Scobot @9:56 Scobot, likely not... And hello!
	10:00pm Derek Westerholm: Thanks for being here all you amazing 'FMU-ers & beach pals!
	10:01pm Tyler: Thanks Derek, Babs & the people on Echo Beach for another good time. Have a good night!
	10:01pm Derek Westerholm: ↳ Tyler @10:01 You too, Tyler & all & all!
	10:02pm Tyler: ↳ Derek Westerholm @10:01 Thanks, Derek. Keep cool...
	10:02pm v-dawg: ↳ Tyler @10:00 That sucks. 2 years ago, major water-main break in Newark. Huge problems with pressure and they had to redirect water lines, even from hydrants!
	10:03pm v-dawg: Good night all and thanks guys.
