soundcrack.net::::roaming radio///Anti-Ear 04.05.07

Yah. The machines do not lie. Many-many-a-patch-cord-and-blinking-led-running-the-spectrum-of-color-and-sound-with-finer-resolution-than-puff-clouds-in-a-blue-sky-later I feel a lucky man to sit in the dimly light room warmed by cocktails and pharmaceuticals whilst the analog robot army marches forward to reign supreme upon my brain. The Anti-Ear coaxes his machines along skewered paths to begin the set, blending his warm drone style with the last vestige of your drained colon sputtering to its final locale. Then a 20-minute sleight-of-hand-picked classics while he disassembles his entire patch and creates something completely fresh and unplanned for set#2, which begins with a beautifully strange percussion and vocal procession before launching into a familiar and very focussed draw on both digital and analog synth movements--it seems he has saved the best for last! It's a short but very sweet second set that leads into a well-picked collection of obscure Brown Whorenet and ot...

soundcrack.net::::roaming radio///Porest 04.01.07

An April 1st treatise: The day began with half my household's clocks leaping ahead an hour as I guess today was the original Daylight Savings before the big Busheroo energy-saver. Frankly--one of these a year is enough for me, but alas, I was fooled once again and had a hard time figuring out what time it was for the first hour of my awake. Things got sorted out and I made my way to Mr. Gergis' apartment in West Oakland. Mark lives directly across from the BART line, so you can grapple-hitch a ride from the 1st story window under the transbay tube into SF. Convenient. When I arrive at his abode, Mark has his Porest setup all ready to go, with 2 microphones, cd players, ipod, a laptop, a mixer, some prepared text, coffee, cigs, etc. For AprilFool Day, I replaced the standard soundcrack.net intro file with the theme song to WKRP in Cincinatti, and then the outro loop to a really long, 4-verse version of the theme song to WKRP in Cincinatti (wanna know the real backstory to ...

soundcrack.net::::roaming radio///Sharkiface 03.13.07

A night of Wine and Tamales (and more wine and beer and liquor and bean burritos.oh dear.) The Sharkilady set up drone machines and sparkle drifters which she casually lays into and out of while mixing in music from Bran(...)tism, Replicock, Pigs in the Ground, Tarantism, Loachfillet, Stin-G Cash, The Dicks, Culturcide, Scratch Acid, as well as several unreleased Sharki recordings. The Tarantism cover of Margaritaville is pure retarded joy and Stin-G's Cash-in-a-box is a square meal of nose drippings to feast on. Occasionally, the insane yammering of a flock of peagulls joins the bin, and ms. Yoshimi steals the show with a yowling lead vocal onslaught while a gaggle of dopey humans provide backup trio. The show moves sharply down your brow starting high and ending way way low . huge fun. 2hr2min. 112mb

soundcrack.net::::roaming radio///Core of the Coalman 03.11.07

whuh. what a day. waking to THE HEADACHE is quite familiar at this 33=year=old point in life but still my least favorite way of starting a day. combined with the loss of an hour today, it all added up to a funky/late start to my heading off to mr. boehringer's home/studio palace. CORE OF THE COALMAN/jorge lives in a strange old live/work loft converted from what looks to be some sort of churchslashshippingwarehouse. his room is scattered with instruments and sound makers/modifiers both acoustic and electronic. jorge had told me his place is "special" and has a unique sound, so we decided to send a mix of room mics and direct signal to capture the room with the performance. this gives the broadcast a really airy but potent sound--quite exciting! was hoping jorge would catapult me out of (self-made) misery and was not in the least bit disappointed. he is one of the most eclectic musicians i know and quite prolific in his ideas, and thus has no problem filling 2 hou...

soundcrack.net::::roaming radio///Loachfillet 03.04.07

Loach sent us to echoplexhell and beyond on this warm sunny sundee of an afternoon. This is a great focussed set from start to finish with a perfect mixture of signature Count Loach selections with his hands-on apploach to never entirely letting the vinyl/tape/digitals do their own thing. "live set" sections begin around 40 minutes in and again at around 1:55 in with special guest Lopey Snapes, but the whole thing crawls from start to finish like a giant metallic snapping turtle happily descending upon PARTY BEACH ISLAND. 2hr15min 124mb. Enjoy your last mohito. playlist in order: Title: Gulbin Cone Artist: Anablebs Peccabus S'pherics Ensemble Album: Synchopation / Nauseous Jukebox (live) Title: The Falsies in Brassieres Artist: Joel Cowan Album: Songs Heard Through a Keyhole / Nauseous Jukebox (live) Title: Incidences / Résonances Artist: Bernard Parmegiana Album: De Natura Sonorum / Nauseous Jukebox (live) Title: Hully Gully Artist: Unknown from Beirut Album...

soundcrack.net::::roaming radio///FACE 02.25.07

a fun day with beautiful music tea chocolate and gum. first actual 'roaming' show. had a few technical snags resulting in FACE's first 2 1/4 songs being wildly un-mixed. but that gets under control and the whole rest sounds quite randy. (plus, i must admit the accidently overdriven guitar in the 2nd song sounds GREAT to me). all music selections by FACE. live FACE starts around 34 minutes in. 1hr.50min. ~100mb. no rain. enjoy. Playlist in order: Title: Gambling Boat Artist: Shirley Q.
