David Nance Live from Montgomery Hall 7/30/17 Rebroadcast
Sunday, August 20th, 6am - 9am
on Burn It Down! with Nate K.
One of the most exciting rock songwriters to emerge from the more
obscure corners of the American indie underground of late, David Nance
brought his talents to Montgomery Hall a few weeks back. Equal parts
ragged-glory guitar heroics and avant rust belt eccentricities, Nance's
live performances take the tracks from his new album Negative Boogie to
new heights. If you missed it, fear not, Burn It Down! with Nate K. has
you covered and will be rebroadcasting Nance's set Sunday, August 20.
Dustin Wong & Takako Minekawa
Tuesday, August 22nd, Noon - 3pm
on Liz Berg's show
It's a collaboration made in experimental pop heaven: Dustin Wong
(former guitarist of Baltimore's Ponytail and a fabulous solo artist in
his own right) is teamed up with the legendary Takako Minekawa (great
solo work along with collaborations with Kahimi Karie, Cornelius,
Ryuichi Sakomoto, etc) for a third album release, entitled "Are
Euphoria," recorded in Tokyo and released on Thrill Jockey this year.
Dustin Wong's dodging, weaving guitar loops play tag with Takako
Minekawa's beats, electronics, and vocals, leaving you dizzy,
lightheaded, and in a happier place. We'll catch up with them for a live
set during a rare U.S. visit, and you should also jump at the
opportunity to see them live at Baby's All Right in Brooklyn on
Saturday, August 19th.
Guest DJ Tom Lax from Siltbreeze Records
Tuesday, August 22nd, 3pm - 6pm
on Brian Turner's show
The annual visit from our pal Tom Lax, bringing up yet another
assortment of obscuro and extremely special 7" singles wax from
Siltbreeze headquarters in Philadelphia. If you've checked out this
special in past years you know that you will certainly be hearing a lot
of DIY/post-punk and general oddball stuff you will probably not hear
anywhere else (and see as well, as we will be posting the sleeve art on
the playlist page live). Not to be missed!
Tom Wilson's Music Factory #24 - Bret Morrison
Wednesday, August 23rd, 3pm - 6pm
on Irwin Chusid
In 1967 and '68 the charismatic record producer Tom Wilson hosted a
free-form radio program called "The Music Factory," sponsored by
MGM-Verve Records. The series quickly came and went, but Irwin is
reviving the series on alternate Wednesdays at 4pm (Eastern). On our
August 23rd episode, Wilson welcomes to the Music Factory Bret Morrison,
a voice actor who portrayed "The Shadow" on radio during the 1940s and
'50s. Wilson and Morrison discuss pre-TV radio, and spin tracks by
Appletree Theater, The Fabulous Farquahr, Harumi, Alan Lorber, the
Beacon Street Union, and others. Paul Shalmy of Eye Magazine joins
Wilson to discuss the trend in power rock trios, such as the Jimi
Hendrix Experience and Cream.
The Exquisite Course: A Brief History of a World (Perhaps, This One), An Audio Exquisite Corpse
Saturday, August 26th, Midnight - 3am
on Inflatable Squirrel Carcass with Rich Hazelton
Dear Listener,
For this evening’s redefining of the word entertainment, the Inflatable
Squirrel Carcass has invited nine fellow DJs to contribute five minutes
of audio continuing the story begun by the person before them. ‘Tis a
tale of lust and love, you are about to hear, murder and mayhem, 0s and
1s, rice and beans, fahrenheit and centigrade. ’Tis a brief history of a
world (perhaps, this one).
Tune in from 12am–1am and embrace your inner trilobite.
P.S. It is hoped by all participants that said audio shall:
a) remain somewhat coherent over the course of 50 minutes or so
b) remain somewhat incoherent over the course of 50 minutes or so
c) none of the above
d) be successful enough so that we can consider doing an exquisite copse for Arbor Day
Veteran Soul Singer Winfield Parker
Saturday, August 26th, 11am - 1pm
on Michael Shelley's show
Michael welcomes soul singer, songwriter and saxophonist Winfield Parker
to discuss his 60th year in show business - which has included backing a
slew of artists (including Little Richard) at Carr’s Beach, a
segregated summer resort near Annapolis, and recording great soul sides
for Ru-Jac, Spring, Wand, Calla, ATCO, GSF, P&L and Arctic and his
upcoming October gig in New Orleans at The Ponderosa Stomp.
Tin Foil
Sunday, August 27th, 6am - 9am
on Burn It Down! with Nate K.
The members of Tin Foil have been bumming around Detroit playing in one
band or another for over a decade now. And though none of those acts
made it too far out of the environs of the Motor City, with Tin Foil,
the boys are ready for the big time (or, at the very least, to play live
on WFMU). The band released its self-title debut EP—a messy, lo-fi
basher with a deceptive sense of precision and craftsmanship that plays
like a punked-up Buffalo Springfield—earlier in the summer on Almost
Ready Records. Check them out live on Burn It Down! with Nate K. Sunday,
August 27, 6 to 9 am.
Al Margolis
Sunday, August 27th, 10pm - Midnight
on World of Echo with Dave Mandl
On Sunday, August 27th, Dave welcomes Al Margolis for his annual visit
to FMU. Al, who runs the avant-garde label Pogus Productions among many
other projects, will be bringing yet another batch of obscure cassette
recordings, strange and lovely music from all corners of the world, and
sneak previews of upcoming Pogus releases. Sunday, August 27, 10 p.m. to
midnight.
Tropical Trash
Tuesday, August 29th, 3pm - 6pm
on Brian Turner's show
Not to be confused with the waste disposal agency in Hilton Head, South
Carolina, the Louisville version of Tropical Trash liquify the
proceedings with their unique blend of fried hardcore and no-wave
trailerpark anthems. They play live today on the heels of their new
Sophomore Lounge single and expect to headline The Rock's Presidential
Victory concert in 2020.
Joe Frank - "Small World Karma"
Wednesday, August 30th, 3pm - 6pm
on Irwin Chusid
One-hour dramas by Joe Frank air alternate Wednesday afternoons at 4pm
(Eastern) on Irwin's program. On Weds. August 30th, we'll present "Small
World Karma" from Joe's "The Other Side" series. In this episode—lots
of DEATH! Joe believes he triggered the death of his hospitalized uncle
Ben during the 1965 New York City blackout. Debi describes a spiritual
moment while witnessing her father's final moments of life. And at the
end of the program, Joe suggests a miniature tombstone for a tiny murder
victim. Also in the show, Joe draws spiritual meaning from the film
"The Incredible Shrinking Man."
James Hand
Saturday, September 2nd, 11am - 1pm
on Michael Shelley's show
Michael chats with one of the world's greatest songwriters, Texas legend
James Hand, who developed hid utterly unique style in a forty year
career spent mostly in smoky dives and dancehalls performing for a
slowly widening circle of admirers.
The Schizophonics PLUS The Rebel Set
Saturday, September 2nd, 3pm - 6pm
on What's Happening?!?! with Matt M
Today on What's Happening?!?! Matt presents The Wild West! San Diego's The Schizophonics with their high-powered thrilling rock 'n soul. Also, Phoenix's organ driven surf-punkers The Rebel Set will send those tumbleweeds moseyin' down the road. Saddle up partner and don't miss a thing!
Doug Tuttle PLUS Don Winslow PLUS Starcrawler PLUS The Shivas
Saturday, September 9th, 3pm - 6pm
on Todd-o-phonic Todd's show
Massachusetts songwriter Doug Tuttle
has just released his third solo album, “Peace Potato”, on Chicago
label Trouble In Mind. Tuttle’s guitar picking and soloing echoes the
greats of decades prior, Harrison, Thompson, Clarence White, with a
conscious eye to the bedroom and basement weird pop genius of sung and
unsung artists like Harumi, Sixth Station, The Bachs and Jim Sullivan.
The ease at which Tuttle’s songs fold and unfold, suggests something
more than your usual home-recorded musings. “Peace Potato” feels natural
and comfortable in it’s skin. Don't miss Doug Tuttle live at Rough
Trade in Brooklyn on Monday August 28th.
Best-selling crime author Don Winslow
gets gritty with Todd-O-Phonic Todd. Winslow's new novel, "The Force"
is a tour de force exposing the underbelly and moral quagmires of
policing, specifically in Manhattan. Stephen King says “The Force is mesmerizing, a triumph. Think The Godfather, only with cops. It’s that good.”
Los Angeles current rock'n'roll dynamos, Starcrawler
features fearless teenage frontwoman Arrow de Wilde. Their great debut
7" on Rough Trade has gotten them on the playlists of noted dj's such as
Elton John and Todd-O-Phonic Todd. Don't miss Starcrawler's high-octane
live show at Union Pool on Friday Sept. 8th.
The Shivas
are a rock and roll band from Portland, Oregon formed in 2006. In the
10 years since forming they have brought their raucous dance party to
almost all 50 states, and over 25 countries worldwide, meanwhile
releasing five full-length albums and three EPs on labels such as K
Records and Burger Records. They are currently touring across the U.S.
in support of their latest opus Turn Me On (on Burger/Annibale Records)
and will be at Alphaville in Brooklyn on 8/26. Most importantly they
have the Hoboken Jack seal of approval!
