UPCOMING SPECIALS ON WFMU:
Brett Milano, author of "Don't Thank Me All At Once: The Lost Pop Genius of Scott Miller"
Wednesday, December 2nd, 9pm - Midnight
on The Evan "Funk" Davies Show
Scott Miller probably needs no introduction to most WFMU listeners, but
let's give him one anyway: leader of the bands The Loud Family, Game
Theory, and Alternate Learning. His sudden suicide in the spring of 2013
stunned longtime fans and close friends alike.
Longtime rock journalist Brett Milano has assembled the story of
Miller's life through conversations with nearly all of his past
bandmates as well as collaborators and admirers such as Mitch Easter,
Steve Wynn and Aimee Mann. Brett will join Evan "Funk" Davies tonight to
discuss Scott Miller's life and share a few stories from the book.
You'll also hear plenty of music from Scott Miller's bands and some of
the songs he loved, plus some exclusive treats! Tune in at 9pm (EST)
Wednesday night December 2 for this celebratory and revelatory look at
the life of a pop genius.
Norman Westberg
Thursday, December 3rd, 3pm - 6pm
on Strength Through Failure with Fabio
Coming to WFMU this Thursday, long time Swans guitarist Norman Westberg
will bring his guitar and treat us to a live in-studio, solo
performance. While his guitar sound for Swans and a few other projects
is legendary, what is less known is his recent work as a soloist,
exploring the sonic qualities of guitar drones.
Johnny Pastorius (Jaco's son) and Robert Trujillo of Metallica
Thursday, December 3rd, 6pm - 7pm
on The Dusty Show with Clay Pigeon
This week's Dusty Show with Clay Pigeon features interviews with Johnny
Pastorius (Jaco's son) and Robert Trujillo (Suicidal Tendencies,
Metallica). Both are in town for the cinematic debut of Jaco: A Documentary Film.

Saturday, December 5th, 3pm - 6pm
on Todd-o-phonic Todd's show

hearts. Get in on the ground floor!
Special Guest DJ Katie Lavoie [LEV-WAH]
Monday, December 7th, 9am - Noon
on Surface Noise with Joe McGasko

on Three Chord Monte with Joe Belock

Hypnolovewheel) and Eamonn Bowles (the Martinets, Fabians).
Streiber
Monday, December 7th, 8pm - 9pm
on Infinite Distortion
Disquieting dreams, phasing in and out of consciousness, losing time,
manufactured memories. Thus is the domain of Western Massachusetts'
Streiber. The ambient project of Love Is The Law label master Erik Brown
(Wish For Skin, Vanitism, Crashing Bores), this enigmatic
journey of hazy electronics promotes a powerful sense of unease, but
also an otherworldly sense of exploration and discovery.
Tom Scharpling
Monday, December 7th, 9pm - Midnight
on The Goddamn Dave Hill Show
Pull your loved ones close for night #1 of “The Best of Both Worlds”,
two magical nights of radio concocted in the back of the Paramus Denny's
by Dave and Tom Scharpling. On Monday, December 7, Tom will return to
WFMU to be a guest on the Goddamn Dave Hill Show. And then the next
night, which is to say Tuesday, December 8, Dave will head over to Best
Show HQ down the road to appear as a guest on the Best Show. Together,
these two nights of scorching hot radio will make for the most
incredible thing that has happened in New Jersey since Venom played City
Gardens at least.
Folking Around with Nath Ann Carrera (Julie fills in for Irene)
Tuesday, December 8th, 9pm - Midnight
on Dark Night of the Soul with Julie
Julie is joined in the earlier dark hours by Musician/DJ Nath Ann
Carrera (Woahmone, Witch Camp, Justin Vivian Bond, The Loser's Lounge
and various solo projects) to traipse melodically through songs and
stories of (mostly) 60s (mostly) English folk musicians like Sandy
Denny, Linda Thompson, Pentangle and Renaissance from the jangly to the
psychedelic. He's promised to bring his guitar so he may even sing a
song or two.
Compactor
Wednesday, December 9th, Midnight - 3am
on Wm. Berger presents My Castle of Quiet
It was in 2012 that New York City's Compactor grabbed many by the throat with Desensitization Reprocessing—a
continuous and irresistible revel of molded, throbbing beats, and
psychiatric-endurance-testing iced soul. From there onward, Derek Rush
released a steady series of releases that have kept Compactor's
thudding, tech-dungeon terror alive. For fans of the most-vintage,
instrumental Throbbing Gristle, and beloved cult artists like Esplendor
Geometrico, Compactor will be especially satisfying. Derek makes his
second visit to WFMU (this time live & in real time) on the My
Castle of Quiet program. Heaps of ugly fun.
Joe Frank - "A Landing Strip in the Jungle"
Wednesday, December 9th, 3pm - 6pm
on Irwin Chusid
One-hour dramas by Joe Frank air alternate Wednesdays at 4pm (Eastern)
on Irwin's program. An episode entitled "A Landing Strip in the Jungle,"
from Joe's Work in Progress series, airs Weds. December 9th. Joe visits
Sri Lanka where he develops an odd relationship with a young beggar.
While living in lower Manhattan, Joe develops an odd friendship with a
junkie who robs him at knifepoint on a regular basis. Later, Joe
presides over the "Survivor of the Year" competition between people who
have survived harrowing experiences.
Jon Spencer
Saturday, December 12th, 3pm - 6pm
on Todd-o-phonic Todd's show
Influential New York musician/performer/socialite Jon Spencer joins
Todd-O-Phonic Todd for 3 hours of chat, records and revelry. The
mastermind behind such combos as Pussy Galore and the Jon Spencer Blues
Explosion will be spinning some wild tunes and talking about his career,
his city and much more!
Consumer Electronics
Monday, December 14th, 8pm - 9pm
on Infinite Distortion
The unyielding fury of Consumer Electronics is delivered with crushing
electronics, jolts of dismembered beats, anguished squalls of feedback,
and white-knuckle language hurled with unparalleled viciousness. Philip
and Sarah Ruth Best are the couple behind the current incarnation of
this long-running project that's come to define the genre of power
electronics as we know it today.
Sam Kulik
Tuesday, December 15th, Midnight - 3am
on The Frow Show with Jesse Jarnow
There is nothing quite like The Broadcast, Sam Kulik's 20-track
recreation of a full nine-inning baseball game set to music with live
commentary, music by an all-star cast of New York improv and jazz
musicians, original advertisements, and accompanying trading cards. Sam,
a New York experimental trombonist mainstay and member of bands
including Escape From Society and Starring, will stop by the Frow Show
to discuss just why and how he created a score to a May 2015
Mets/Marlins game, the time he played a solo trombone version of the
National Anthem at CitiField, the brilliance of Howie Rose, and other
topics. In addition, Sam will call a few innings of a ballgame with
musical color commentary by the local DJ. Can't wait until the spring to
meet the Mets again? Tune into the Frow Show for a mid-winter reprieve.
Matt Bauer
Tuesday, December 15th, 9pm - Midnight
on Irene Trudel's show
Using his whispery-raspy voice and a banjo, Matt Bauer creates
beautiful, thematic albums filled with tales of death and mysterious
circumstances. Bauer embellishes these song cycles with an ensemble of
chamber music players. On Matt's newest, "Dream's End," a sci-fi
scenario unfolds, in which the protagonist is described as "(breaking)
himself apart to find wires and circuits and a body made of glass and
gold." Matt Bauer brings his ensemble to WFMU for a live performance.
Spazz Xmas Fiasco!
Thursday, December 17th, 9pm - Midnight
on Music To Spazz By with Dave the Spazz
All-Star Xmas band The Jingleberries plus legendary one-man band
Bloodshot Bill slide down the WFMU chimney to help wreck the halls on a
very special Spazz Xmas Fiasco!
James Hunter
Saturday, December 19th, 11am - 1pm
on Michael Shelley's show

acoustic performance. The James Hunter Six have a new number one hit
album “Hold On” due out shortly on the Daptone label.
The Ar-Kaics PLUS Doug Yule
Saturday, December 19th, 3pm - 6pm
on Todd-o-phonic Todd's show
The Ar-Kaics are Kevin, Johnny, Tim, and Patty. They play troglodyte
teenbeat '60s-style punk. Hailing from Richmond, Virginia they follow in
the great tradition of Virginia garage bands such as The Individuals
and The IV Pack. With over half a dozen singles released and one killer
album chock full of hits, The Ar-Kaics are already a force to be
reckoned with. Be sure and catch them live at Berlin (in Manhattan
underneath the bar 2A on 2nd St. and Ave. A) on the evening of December
19th alongside WFMU faves The Jay Vons and Dirty Fences.
It's a YULEtide Holiday Special! That's right, Todd-O-Phonic Todd
questions Doug Yule of the Velvet Underground in honor of the release of
not one, but two box sets of Velvets recordings that feature Doug.
There is the brilliant 4 cd set of live recordings from Thanksgiving
1969 at The Matrix Club in San Francisco, as well as a 6 cd 45th
anniversary edition of Loaded. Find out in this rare interview if Doug
hung out at Specs' Alder Museum Cafe in between sets at The Matrix!
Worse
Monday, December 21st, 8pm - 9pm
on Infinite Distortion
Members of Pollution, Shoxx and No Power converge yet again to bum out
audiences and service their hunger for disgusting noise rock. Lose some
more of your hard earned self-respect with this degrading adventure into
positively negative music.
New Year's Eve All-Star Cavalcade of DJs Spazztacular!
Thursday, December 31st, 9pm - Midnight
on Music To Spazz By with Dave the Spazz
Blast into 2016 with Music To Spazz By as your drunken, hedonistic, rock
‘n’ roll monkey orgy soundtrack! Your favorite WFMU Top Jocks drop by

Hour Music People
Tuesday, January 5th, 2016, 9pm - Midnight
on Irene Trudel's show
Founded on the mission of creating an album in a weekend, 29 Hour Music
People is a loose collective of musicians fronted by Rob Christiansen.
As they describe their process, the collective "brainstorms lyrics on
Friday, writes and records music on Saturday, sings direct to tape, no
AutoTune, on Sunday, and returns to normal life with their other bands
on Monday, before anyone notices they have been missing. 29 Hour Music
People's just released 3rd album, "Transportation," benefits Sweet
Relief Musicians Fund and they visit Irene's show to play some of it
live.
Norbert Rodenkirchen, Albrecht Maurer and Robbie Lee
Tuesday, January 12th, 2016, 9pm - Midnight
on Irene Trudel's show
Creating non-traditional music with medieval instruments is a passion with Norbert Rodenkirchen, Albrecht Maurer and Robbie Lee.
In Germany Rodenkirchen and Maurer have collaborated on a number of
albums, the most recent being "Loplop's Call" a musical tribute to the
pioneering Dada artist Max Ernst. American multi-instrumentalist Robbie
Lee entered the picture after a few collaboration sessions with
Rodenkirchen on medieval flutes. Robbie and Norbert perform some flute
improvs, then Norbert performs duos with Albrecht on medieval violin for
WFMU.
