Why another exquisite corpse of course. Nine of WFMU’s crack team of investigative DJs report from the frontlines of the annual struggle of one Kris Kringle to maintain some dignity during an onslaught of vile reconfigurings of the meaning of this finest of shopping seasons.

A typical Cotton Candy set list will likely consist of voice renditions ranging in duration from a few seconds to perhaps an entire minute — with said lineup likely comprising TV commercials, radio jingles, public-service announcements, station IDs, and all sorts of media flotsam and jetsam lovingly re-created exclusively by Mark and Evelyn's a cappella vocal stylings.

Everything and More: A Debsey Wykes Retrospective
Sunday, January 7th, 2018, 8pm - 10pm
on Gaylord Fields's show
The entirety of this two-hour show will be devoted to the thoughts and songs of one of Gaylord Fields's favorite musical artists, Ms. Deborah "Debsey" Wykes. This unique program will look back at the career of the London-born, Cambridge-raised singer, songwriter, and bassist — best known as a creator of the breathtakingly perfect postpunk pop of the all-female '80s trio Dolly Mixture. The show's musical selections will span four decades and bands that also include Captain Sensible, Coming Up Roses, Saint Etienne (with whom Debsey records and tours), and the resplendent adult pop of Birdie, her most recent group with musical and life partner Paul Kelly (ex–East Village). Interspersed among the shimmering songcraft will be a chat recently conducted with Debsey in London that will explore her life in music in her own words and memories. To quote a Dolly Mixture title, being able to produce this special program is a "dream come true."

He also composed for Mike Mills' "Thumbsucker" and "Beginners," Marc Forster's "Stranger Than Fiction," and the "Friday Night Lights" and "Hannibal" TV series. Brian's 2014 solo album "Auto Music" was comprised of conceptual and textural experiments created in preparation for scoring projects.
