French Weirdness #3

Well, it looks like we've got two more installments in the "French Weirdness" series... or at least 1.5... I put together the rest of the artists that I haven't touched upon from the list and it definitely beckons more than a single show, though not an entire second show, so I'll have to come up with something for the last 40 minutes or so of the final French installment to fill with... Oh, and as of next week, I'll be switching to a time slot two hours earlier... that's 10PM Pacific to midnight.

Women

Women.... AHHHhhh...... wommmen. WHO doesn't love 'em?! So I've decided to give the French Weirdness series a break for a week (only one more left anyway) to explore the WOMEN on the list. And I'm devoting 3 hours to it as well! SO many wonderful voices (exceptyokoono), I didn't even know where to begin! So sit back, relax and enjoy a special 3 hour installment of the show featuring the gobs and gullets of all (or most) of the girls on the list!

French Weirdness #1

As I was putting together tonight's theme of odd tracks from the Blue, White and Red, I realized that there is about as many French artists on the list as German (50-ish) and many of them are too good to pass up..., so... I've decided to break the French up into multiple iterations... two or three... and this week reveals the 1st. A lot of diversity in the list tonight. Jazzy, proggy, concrete, a good amount of shouting in French (of course) and I've included several tunes with a sub-theme of acts involving Philippe Besombes...

Humorous and weird...

A good number of the names on the list have senses of humor... Frank Zappa, Ron 'Pate, Bruce Hampton to name a few. Others are funny because they're.... oh, well... odd.

Rock ~N~ Jass

NWW List A-Z Installment #35

This last installment of our A-Z extravaganza features only four tracks (as that's all the artists left here), but I'm including a special piece that inspired the Beatles at the end to fill the final hour. So we've got one of the several bands that was also a commune/cult, a Yuyulating Yoko (by FAR the most irritating if not inaccessible piece I've yet to offer), French weirdness and finally we end with a Krautrock group...

NWW List A-Z Installment #34

With the tune count pulling in at FOUR, this week's show sees the absolute fewest tunes I've played in a single show... probably ever. The first hour brings three 20 minute bits (some eastern flavored kraut, noisy concrete and French weirdness) and the last hour is a single, fuzzed-out operatic bit of krautrock distortion!

Noisy noisy NOI-sy assed show this time around... All long tunes again as well except for one and less melody than concrete and distortion, though many of the tunes are low key and sluggish. Tucked into the middle of it all is one of my favs from the 60's the Velvet's classic tune about a drag queen dressed as a nun at an orgy......

NWW List A-Z Installment #32


Two more shows left after this one... at least for the A-Z trek we've spent most of the year on. In November I'm considering beginning a weekly tie in thread for the set list... All Kraut, all French, all people Zappa's worked with, all Jass... Thinking about tweaking the format as well. Maybe change up the bookend tunes, alter the tone perhaps. Not sure yet, still considering options. Speaking of bookends, this week's fare showcases three concrete-y pieces being book-ended by two Kraut tunes. Interesting mix...

NWW List A-Z Installment #30

As I'm running out of bands to play A-Z material from, I've decided to extend for the last 30 groups the limit I've imposed of 10 minutes or as close as I can get per title, to the maximum song length I have available..... just to milk this excursion length-wise as much as I can, so this week's set is only comprised of 6 tunes rather than my "usual" 8-12... So we got a little Kraut including a Holger side project, some French weirdness and all-in-all, like last week's alphabetically dictated kismetic selection, this week's fair is very mellow....VERY mellow, so sit back with your favorite herb and/or whatever else will tranquilize your mind and get ready for a long strange journey...

NWW List A-Z Installment #29

WHAT A CRAZILY MELLOW SHOW this week 'round! If you're in a chillun' mood, this week's podcast will do the trick... I'm doing a little something different this week as well, set-list wise. As I've said before, during this alphabetical excursion, I'm playing the solo artists by order of the first letter of their FIRST name... not last. Thus Frank Zappa is played as an "F" and not a "Z". So I played Malfatti and Wittwer back in the "M"s. I'm starting off this week with the three Steves on the list and thought I'd begin with a Stephan Wittwer (OF Malfatti and Wittwer) SOLO piece as an extra special bonus track for tonight's set  list (because I really like it)... Starting out with some classical and jass, including an orchestral piece by Steve Reich, going to a few rock bits then a couple of avaunt-garde voice based tunes... ending with the MIGHTY Tangerine Dream! I chose a long one for them! ;)

I hate to say it, but...

...no show again this week. Though this should be the last for a while... I almost had to work to cover the boss going camping but he didn't go. What DID happen though was my car needed all but $50 of this paycheck in repairs and I'm out of blank CD's, and as I record the show ahead of time from MP3's on my computer (odds on one disc and evens on the other so I DO still mix it live in the studio, though only with two discs), I literally couldn't afford a new spindle of them, as I have $75 to last two weeks. I can't even re-up my phone minutes either until then, so I have to drive to the studio to let the DJ before me know I won't be in and to kick the automation we use to cover the late night slots on early... *sad day in Mudville*

NWW List A-Z Installment #27

I can't begin to explain the troubles I thought I had with this show, once in the studio.... I say that because when I arrived, too late for the other DJ to wait til I left and came back, I realized that one of the discs I brought was the wrong one, and as I burn the show ahead of time, Odd tracks on disc one and even on disc two, so I DO still mix live, I only had half a show, and every other artist from the alpha list, per my odd/even disc process... So I left, went and got the other disc and had to have security let me into the building as there was no one else there at that time on a Sunday morning........... But the show's a hot one. Nice bit of mistake in my favour bob-ness with per having a wrong burn of the second disc, I had two Sally Timms tunes... one from her now doing alt country and one of her at 19 as Sally Smmit per where her entry on the List stems.

NWW List A-Z Installment #26


I'm really looking forward to the show tonight. After several weeks of really out there inaccessible stuff, the NWW A-Z bogeyman has bestowed upon us a set list of tunes that most of which are upbeat and can be enjoyed by a wider slice of musical palettes. As well, I'm correcting a mistake I realized I made a few weeks ago... On the list, Frank Zappa is listed as a separate act (I assume regarding his solo works) than the Mothers, so as I have them both in the same folder on my HD (under "Frank Zappa"), I played HIM solo in the F's but missed adding THEM to the M list from back in July... So I'm beginning the show with the out of order, Brown Shoes Don't Make It off of Absolutely Free. Maybe this will help me hit the Top 40!

NWW List A-Z Installments #24-25

YES...... I've been skipping weeks a bit lately. I've had mostly good excuses.... except for one or two, "I just don't want to go ins"... But those have been precursed with lack of sleep and headache and such, so they still don't REALLY count as being lazy.... DO THEY????! Anyway, to make up for it I've got TWO shows I'm doing BACK TO BACK this week! One early and unannounced, so peeps may miss it if they regularly listen. But that's GOOD because when they hear they missed one THIS SAME NIGHT, it may be an incentive to visit my BLOG here and listen to it per my PODCAST! hehehehehe!

I'm cramming ALL of the N's into the show tonight along with the final M that I didn't have time for last week... I will not cut if I go over like I usually do, I'll just have a long show if I must. I was short 20 minutes a few weeks back so this can make up for it. As well, this is probably the least accessible play-list I've had in this A-Z excursion yet. Out of 11 pieces, all are rock (Kraut and other  Prog) or Jass except for 3 noise pieces later on... including the supposed world's first noise band: The Nihilist Spasm band, formed in the 60's and from North Canadia... ENJOY!

Not much in the form of accessible music this week, so if your palette is sensitive, you might want to have someone strap you to a gurney and inject you with PCP before listening so you can comfortably lose your mind. Experimental, Free Jazz,  Concrete, people droning in foreign tongues... sometimes without even musical accompaniment... This set is NOT for the feint of heart... FUNSTUFF!

Ok, ok, ..., I've been a ba-a-ad blogger. I've ceased writing an intro paragraph and am not being prompt in uploading... I apologize. RL issues + laziness = Ba-a-ad blogger. I'm going to stop that now and go back and write an intro for the ones I've missed. This week's playlist has inspired me into it, actually. It's chock FULL of French weirdness (including the longest piece I've chosen yet... a 40 minute live version of Mekanik Destruktiv Kommando by my arguable favorite minus Zappa and Beefheart name on the list itself, which is why I'm starting this week with such a whopper) as well as a couple of American groups and a Nordic Jass duo...

So, my new job is kicking my butt. You may have noticed I still have to post the links to last week's show. This week I was called in to work at the last minute on my day off because my assistant called in sick and being the supervisor, I had to fill in, so the show did not happen. (4::20 show, missed!!)

We begin with the G's this week. In the forecast this week; a group of many, many saxophonists that play pieces written specifically to be performed in unique, pre-existent public space, sax-ists strewn everywhere with the tones designed to reverberate within that specific architectural environment, about 1/3 scattered Kraut,  a little psychedelic rock... And FYI, I may be switching time slots soon as I have a new job and am not sure what the days will be.

NWW List A-Z Installment #11

WOW, this week brings us an odd, odd group of artists. Mostly ambient pieces and sound collages with only a few bits that are actually melodious. I LOVE IT! Finishing the F's, we have the mighty guitarists Frank Zappa and Fred Frith, a side project from Paul Revere and the Raiders as well as one from Pete Shelley, and of course a couple of Krautrock acts. On a side note, there may be in the coming weeks a few missed sessions here and there, as it looks like I'm getting a job that may interfere with my regular Irregular programming. I hope to remedy this by getting a different one that I am also up for that would hopefully counter this... But if that second gig falls through, I may have to move time slots to something earlier, though I do have an alternative plan that would have me on-air on irregular nights from 2Am to 4AM... We'll see how this all fleshes out. Oh, and as stated last week, I inadvertantly skipped Family Fodder, so I'm starting this week's installment with them, out of order..... ;(

Let me start this post with saying that YES, I made a couple of mistakes... Half way through this week's broad/pod-cast I realized that I had not included Family Fodder and will now just have to do so at the beginning of next weeks' cast... REALLY annoying to me, but, that's the way it goes. Also, I've seen a couple different versions of the list apparently over the years, as I've noticed several artists while putting this together over the last 10 weeks that I had SWORN I've seen included, suddenly NOT included on the several versions of the list online that I peruse. I've caught them in the past and disgarded them, but this week I kinda almost missed one. "Frame", the Kraut band again, I SWEAR was included before and now it isn't. I caught it before playing the tune that I chose, but then began to play it on-air anyway...... I caught it though before the 1st verse and stopped it. Still.... Live radio, what cha gonna doo??

We're (my Homunculus Manitous and myself) finishing the D's AND all of the E's tonight. Only 5 E's and they're all, save a French Jazz act, Kraut groups. In fact 6 of the 10 acts featured tonight are. We also have a little avantgarde experimental noise and really that's about it per genre this time around. Kraut, Noise and a little Jazz... Although technically, Kraut is more of a movement comprised of many different genres' explored by German musicians... but that's splitting hairs. Oh, one of the albums I've drawn from was recorded in the 70's for an unproduced film about the Viking Mars Mars probe and not released until the 00's and one of the acts is of mysterious origins....... (did those two hooks pique your interest enough to draw you in?) .......Should be a fun show.

This week we begin (and for all but 5 acts, end) the D's, and I've run into a chunk of groups with the most short pieces offered yet. As I've said before, I'm trying to feature tunes as close to 10 minutes each as I can and have so far been mostly successful. But another weird pattern emerged with this set and it offered me more than half the groups with no songs (that I have anyway) reaching the 10 minute mark... in fact 5 of them are about average length for "normal" radio fare. Another noisey week though with some punk, a piece of sound poetry, a couple of concrete pieces and some free jazz. The first act featured is one of only two on the entire list that has only a single recorded piece in existence. Though to be fair, the other one, Sphinx Tush has two different versions of their lone number, so Dadazuzu is definitely the lone songman, so to speak...

NWW List A-Z Installment #7

So it appears that what happened last week was when I input the 1st blank CD into my DVD ROM drive to burn for the show, I accidentally chose "Burn Data Disc" from the pop-up window without realizing it and the CD drives in the station's on-air studio didn't know what the hell to do with them.... So this week we press on. Finishing the C's, we have a somewhat noisy show tonight with a couple of really long pieces, pushing the 20 minute mark.

NWW List A-Z Installment #6

Still in the C's, this week we have only one Kraut group which is quite rare as over 1 of 6 bands on the list fit that bill. Also one of my favorite American groups on the list, a solo effort by the lead of one of my all-time favorite groups, Magma, two Jazz ensembles, a Czech rock group, two AMAZING female French singers and tunes from 3 albums who's cover art coincidentally feature scrawled images of African animals. Next week we finish the C's!

NWW List A-Z Installment #5

We're in for another great show with a distinct persona this week! Lots of droning and hypnotic stuff including (as usual) a good amount of Kraut (with the flagship Kraut group, Can), some nice electronica, militant homosexual cabaret and the genius vision of Don Vliet aka Captain Beefheart, in perfect timing with the LONG awaited (36 years) posthumous release this coming Monday, of his Bat Chain Puller album by the Zappa Family Trust due to legal crap and hard feelings... In tribute to and celebration of this wonderful event, I'm going to add a song from it in order each week after this until I play the entire thing.

NWW List A-Z Installment #4

Wow, LOTTA jassy tunes this week! Funny how each week's 10 tunes seem to have a discernible 'flavor'; last week was 'weird' prog rock. the week before, harder prog rock and the 1st week, I'd say was more of a European acid influenced rock. Many titular
bands/songs (and/or) albums this week as well. I'd say a lot of French and Scandinavian artists too, but that's pretty much every week. So shines the bumpy road that is the NWW List...

NWW List A-Z Installment #3

It appears we've hit a milestone here at The Irregular Show's NWW List A-Z Blog and Podcast, my homunculus gnomes and myself, Dr. Nothing... This show marks the point where we pass the "A's"... Yes, a list of 29X bands can get pretty bulky, so 3 weeks of A acts are to be expected though. *winces at bad pun* ANY-way, this setlist is really going to be fun, as many of the bands in the latter third of the first letter are some of my favorites on the list... thus assuredly pretty weird. Arbete och Fritid and Archimedes Badkar, both rock bands from Sweden, Henry Cow spin-off, Art Bears with Fred Frith, and of course the seminal Kosmische Musik groups Ashra and Ash Ra Tempel are high points for me, but assuredly all of the NWW List "A" artists are amazing in their own rights... as are the rest of the alphabet's offerings here-in. ENJOY!

...next week, the beginning of the b's... ;)
____________________________________________________________

1. Arbete och Fritid ~ Kalvdans (1979) {Håll Andan}
2. Arcane V ~ Marron Dingue (1979) {Marron Dingue}
3. Archaia ~ L'arche des Mutations (1977) {Archaia}
4. Archimedes Badkar ~ Efter Regnet + Vattenfall (1976) {Archimedes Badkar II}
5. Area ~ MIRage? Mirage! (1974) {Caution Radiation Area}
6. Art Bears ~ In Two Minds (1978) {Hopes and Fears}
7. Art Zoyd ~ La Nuit (1982) {Phase V}
8. Arzachel (Uriel) ~ Clean Innocent Fun (1969) {Arzachel}
9. Ashra ~ Hausaufgabe (2002) {Life in Japan}
10. Ash Ra Tempel ~ Interplay of Forces (1973) {Starring Rosi}
X11. Association P.C. ~ Frau Theunissen's Kegel (1972) {Erna Morena}X

(During the show, I decided to not go over and keep Association P.C. until next week, opening the B's with the last A)

NWW List A-Z Installment #2

OK then, week #2 of the NWW List A-Z on The Irregular Show is now here bringing with it the second of three installations featuring the many artists beginning with the letter, "A"; at least the way I'm counting it... As I've said, I'm grouping the solo acts by the first letter of their first name, rather than last, as that's how I have them arranged on my computer's hard drive.
I'd like to thank and give a big shout-out to DJ Jim from Radio Mu Mu found on Chirp Radio out of the windy city who inspired me to actually start a blog and podcast for this show. His playlists are eclectic and ALL over the genre map and he can be found right here on the BlogSpot network at Radio Mu Mu every other Saturday, so please go support independent radio podcasts EVEN MORE by adding him to your listening roster as well.

Podcast upload delay...

Having a few problems finding a host for my podcasts, but this should be rectified soon...

NWW List A-Z Installment #1

Here's the playlist for tonight's first installment of the NWW List A-Z on The Irregular Show. It takes us through just under half of the A's... As I said before, I'm choosing pieces that are as close to ten  minutes as I can. Most artists on the list have pieces close to that, so that's definitely going to be the median point. A few coming in the future (mostly avant-garde and  concrete stuff) have pieces whose shortest time is close to half an hour... an entire album side, so there will be exceptions either way.
________________________________________________________________

1. Achim Reichel and Machines ~ Truth And Probability (A Lexicon Of Self Knowledge) (1971) {Die Grüne Reise}
2. Agitation Free ~ Susie Sells Seashells at the Seashore (1999 reunion) {The River of Return}
3. Airway ~  Live at Lace part one (1978) {Live at Lace}
4. Albert Marcoeur ~ Quest-ce Que ta as? (1974) {split cassette with This Heat}
5. Albrecht/d. ~ Endless Music goes Zen (1985) {Abstract Energy}
6. Alcatraz ~ Simple Headphone Mind (1971) {Vampire State Building}

8. Alternative TV ~ Alternative TG (1998) {Punk Life}
9. Alvaro ~ Drinkin' My Own Sperm (1977) {Drinkin' my Own Sperm}

NWW List A-Z

In 1979 the experimental, "proto-mash-up" trio of Steven Stapleton, John Fothergill, and Heman Patha released their first album, Chance Meeting on a Dissecting Table of a Sewing Machine and an Umbrella, and within the liner notes they included a list of bands that influenced their burgeoning sound collage project which they called, Nurse With Wound. After their second album was released including another roster of acts, the list was complete, comprised of 290+ artists from around the planet, spanning many musical genres; from Krautrock to Musique Concrete, Cabaret to Free Jazz, Psychedelic Rock to French Weirdness. It has since become a shopping list... no, more like a Schindler's list of amazing musical oddities for sound geeks across the globe to collect and enjoy.
This radio show, broadcast from the Erb Memorial Union on the campus of the University of Oregon, Fridays at midnight to Saturdays at 2AM PST, is dedicated to the further propagation of these artists and their works into the ears and minds of the initiated and unaware alike... and beginning on Friday January 13th, 2012, I'll be playing the entire list from A-Z. As many of the artists' music includes titles well longer than the average 3 minute radio-fare, I'm actually aiming to select pieces that are at least 10 minutes long... so this process should take a good part of the year.
To the right is a link to the station's live feed and a count-down timer to the next live show and also links to set-lists and a podcast for consumption after the fact.
