Short interview with Sifunk and Garmunkle followed by mixes from the boys. Garmunkle takes you through something like a babysitter’s unreality, a collection of voices, howls, warnings, and backwards gestures, all blowing through an expanse of deep psychedelic, funk and other-otherly grooves. Afterwards, you can come up for air with Sifunk’s mix, which feels like what you might hear wandering along a Miami Beach after a Double Duce concert at Studio 183, the half-heard echos of an after-party somewhere on the strip, a DJ throwing down inside a two-room cabana packed with one-hundred-and-ten sweaty, inebriated creatures. Brighter, up-tempo, sensual, boogie music.

You can check out Sifunk and Garmunkle’s new record, “Blooperz” at Astro-Nautico: http://astro-nautico.blogspot.com/2009/08/blooperz.html

Aluminum Riding (re-up'd)

The other day I was listening to "Aluminum Riding" on headphones and realized it was only coming out of one headphone. This was probably because I recorded it in Mono but exported it in Stereo. I re-exported it in Mono this morning and it should play in L and R channels now.

Here is ALUMINUM RIDING, surround sound...

Sunday someway

Inactivity, activity. Headache. Head clear. If you want to be closer with me than I want to be closer with you.

The academic experience is either the mimicking of your professor to impress him/her or the recycling of someone else's ideas, or often a combination of both. What about the re-imagination of cultural items? Can this be thought of as the re-imagination/reinvention of certain ideas?

Since beginning school three years ago, I've taken mostly courses in history and philosophy, film theory and production and writing workshops. Each year my interest in radio and experiments in audio in general has deepened and evolved, at times often crowding out my other interests, like filmmaking, for instance, which I don't become dis-interested in, it's just that - next to the other stuff, it's gets put off or forgotten for however long. Writing has been more complimentary to some of my radio/audio pursuits. With my senior work, I'd like to try to draw on these three areas: radio/experimental audio, film and writing. The goal is to, through a project of some sort, be it a piece of creative (interactive) writing, a film, an audio piece or an installation, "articulate" my "education" over this four-year period in my life. The ways in which I found education, at three different schools - in libraries, on bus rides, alone in houses, with/without loved ones, in a recording studio - wherever it was found. Articulate that, play that, see that education, see how I grew or shrunk in certain situations, what school was or was not doing for me, what other experiences were working and not working.

Hopefully, I can come away with a piece of work which is not an imitation of one of my professors, nor a recycling of someone else's ideas. Instead, can it be a re-imagination of the narrative of "my life" over the past four years? A partially non-fictional, partially fictional restaging of my reality? Understanding things that happened not necessarily...well, what I mean is, watching things happen again not necessarily within the narrow scope of their circumstances and merely their circumstances, but instead, re-playing these things within a broader range of understanding incorporating maybe what I now know about the larger formation of things in "my life."

This one’s all VINYL. Thus, the general SOUND is pretty ROUND. Music is R&B, Disco, Pop, New-Wave, Afro-beat and African Pop. I should mention that I do veer outside of ordinary RM50 territory with this one for two tracks – the Bhundu Boys and Ebeneto Koto tracks are from the Tim Dalton years. All the rest in bona fide Rog’, though…enjoy.
