Literally Can Also Mean Figuratively: Transmission 54, 2013 August 17
Monday Sep 30, 2013
Monday Sep 30, 2013
Another day, another "Test Pattern" in the style of Bombast. As is common with these "extra" episodes, the "Listening Parlour" is closed--Lady Catharsis is tough to wrangle--but there is some "Physical Evidence" to share, a nice piece of it too. Also, we officially enter "retro August" during this program, for better or worse.
When an episode languishes on the shelf for a long time, as this one has, I have trouble recalling the specific circumstances of the program, unless they were extra special. I know that I'd picked up the habit of following DJ Helen's "Hip Hop Don't Stop" program because she didn't enjoy closing down the building by herself. I tried, regularly, to get someone else to do a shift at this time; surprisingly, there was little interest in a Saturday 11pm slot. Since I wasn't going to show up at that hour just to be an escort, I went ahead and did some full programs.
The Clinton House, for those of you who haven't visited, can be somewhat creepy at that hour. It's a big building--it used to be a hotel--and we're typically its only occupant who is active late at night. The exterior doors do lock automatically at a certain hour, but there are lots of places for people to hide. I was alone in the building one night when the power went out--that was fun! And DJ Helen swears that she has seen a ghost walk through one of the building's walls. I have not witnessed such a thing, which I guess proves that I'm not cool enough to hang with ghosts.
Speaking of--man, does that Doing It For The Kids record bring me back. It should come with a trigger warning!
Also--if you don't own the Buick album, you need to get it, yesterday if not sooner. It's even on iTunes, for god's sake, so no excuses.

Gonna Put a Reggae in Your Jeggae: Transmission 52, 2013 August 8
Friday Sep 27, 2013
Friday Sep 27, 2013
A dark and stormy night produces a chill set of tunes, with occasional explosiveness courtesy of Adrian Sherwood and the On-U Sound crew. WRFI was enduring a rough phase with its new transmitter, wherein every patch of rough weather was knocking 88.1 off the air. This particular BOMBAST may always have been a web exclusive, but at least it is now archived.
Listening back through this program, I am well pleased and a bit saddened all at once. Pleased: the selection is tight and makes sense, even for an "overflow" program; good to know that what doesn't "make the cut" for a regular show still passes the quality test. Saddened: it's getting to the point where these "unofficial" programs are actually more fun than the regular show. The regular show is pressure, you guys. I don't know how I managed to do that to myself, but here we are.
Erratum: I was mistaken about Jah Wobble's contribution to the Dub Syndicate track, in that he didn't make one. In my defense, he did play bass on "Overboard," which sits next to it on this record. What's new?

I Got Stuck for Hours, Everywhere: Transmission 63, 2013 September 25
Thursday Sep 26, 2013
Thursday Sep 26, 2013
Fresh off the digital recorder, here is last night's episode. The features are plentiful: a side's worth of The Revolutionaries' "Revival Dub" as "Physical Evidence"; two granola-flavored visits to the "Listening Parlour"; and a choice cut from my techno [but not techno] kid. It was a full, satisfying evening.
Notes: it is true, what I say about my history with Mac Davis; I had the computer turned up, to disastrous effect, because of my new fetish for cramming my program into the designated "timekeeper" slots [that's WRFI jargon]; I found that extended set in the second hour a bit jarring--Brian Eno segueing into The Dub Club segueing into Julia Holter sounded much better in the planning stages than in the actual moment. Ah well.

They Even Say You're Insane: Transmission 50, 2013 August 3
Wednesday Sep 25, 2013
Wednesday Sep 25, 2013
This program happened late at night, on a day that followed another late night. I think it was a pretty "on" show, nevertheless. No "Listening Parlour" but a very good "Physical Evidence"--if you had known me in, say, 1988, you might well have guessed that 25 years later I would be spinning a London Underground record after midnight on a radio station in the middle of nowhere, with about 3 people listening. Nothing sad about that.
[Aside: it seems to me--am I alone in thinking this?--that The London Underground, at least on this record, sound like what would happen if you took the "nutty" sound out of Madness and replaced Langer & Winstanley with Martin Hannett. I mean that in the best possible way. I love that first Madness record.]
Also, hey! This is program 50. I'd explained elsewhere--here, I think--that I am superstitious, in a bad way, about programs that end in "zero." So I celebrate quietly--very quietly, once the day rolls over. The program gets weirder and weirder, especially after I find myself with extra time and have to toss in a few unplanned tracks.
Radio is kind of addictive. You are grateful at first for whatever airtime you get, and then you begin...having needs. I had all this extra material sitting around, and "only" the regular Wednesday night program on which to play it. And we have these empty "Test Pattern" time slots just sitting there, and it's August to boot, so people are going on vacation...it's here that I begin to travel down a dark path.
But enough. It's still "good times" for now.

Drastic Plastic: Transmission 62, 2013 September 18
Tuesday Sep 24, 2013
Tuesday Sep 24, 2013
We herewith complete the induction of the mighty Coil into the BOMBAST Hall of Legends. Lady Catharsis even informs me that she enjoyed one of their songs tonight. I told you this was the most beautiful single of the bunch, did I not? As we steadily approach normalcy, we also throw in a host of new tunes and take care of some long-unfinished business.
It seems like we just talked, and I guess we did. There's a sizable backlog of BOMBAST programs, and I'm working my way through them as best I can. I believe this post gets you caught up on the "regularly scheduled" episodes, with the "impromptu" or "fill-in" episodes to come--Cthulu willing, we'll have them all posted by the end of the month.
This episode is a weird, dynamic set. I wouldn't necessarily say it's one of the "best," but it does contain many textures, moods, and energies, which was the original "dream." It's always a strange night when Coil is playing--what would life be without strange nights?

We Are Hour to Hour: Transmission 61, 2013 September 11
Monday Sep 23, 2013
Monday Sep 23, 2013
We inaugurate the new season at WRFI with a fully-loaded program of features and regular stuff. It's mostly rock and techno tonight. The reggae and Afro-pop will come, in time.
Did you miss me? I certainly missed you. Retro August was just crazy. Did you know? I did eight Bombast programs in July, and nine in August. That is entirely too much radio for me, and too much me for radio. I went so far down the rabbit hole that I found myself doing these extracurricular excursions, to be discussed at some other time. At any rate, it is good to be back on the horse, and down to one horse. For now. I think.
Somewhere in the middle of this program, if you listen closely to one of the voice-overs, you can hear raised voices in the background. Radio people: we argue with great frequency! For once, I was not involved. Good times.

Closer, or Is It Closer? Transmission 59, 2013 September 4
Tuesday Sep 10, 2013
Tuesday Sep 10, 2013
The final regularly scheduled BOMBAST of the WRFI summer season is a return to the usual BOMBAST thing, whatever that is--circa January. No "Physical Evidence," not on account of a shortage but instead because I simply couldn't make it work this time around. The "Listening Parlour," however, is open, although Lady Catharsis is not in a talking mood. This show felt good and is good, even if it was a wobbly first step on the road to normalcy.
"Retro August" has taken a toll, physically and mentally. Still, some things remain. I continue to say ridiculous stuff like "a movie ticket giving-away." Perhaps these gaffes will always be with us. I'm beginning to think so.

Rudy Tambala Interview, Part Two
Saturday Sep 07, 2013
Saturday Sep 07, 2013
Here is the second part of an interview I conducted with Rudy Tambala of A.R.Kane. Portions of this conversation appeared in the Hall of Legends special featuring A.R.Kane's music. This is the "full" recording, with everything in its proper context. Part One is available here.
This chat happened via Skype on August 26, 2013, about two weeks after we'd talked the first time. I had some "big picture" questions in mind, some of them perhaps misguided, but that's the sort of thing that happens when you've only read about a thing rather than having experienced it firsthand. As I've written elsewhere, the Bombast program is somehow about making things difficult for myself, and one aspect of that is "looking for sense where possibly there is none."
Still, I think the answers we get in this portion of the interview are worth it. "Long live difficult."
Thanks again to Rudy Tambala for being so generous with his time.

Rudy Tambala Interview, Part One
Saturday Sep 07, 2013
Saturday Sep 07, 2013
Here is the first part of an interview I conducted with Rudy Tambala of A.R.Kane. Portions of this conversation appeared in the Hall of Legends special featuring A.R.Kane's music. Here's the "full" recording, with everything in its proper context.
This is the basic "music interview" material--how the band formed, label intrigue, recording processes, and so forth. However, it does reveal the importance of Janet Jackson and Jellybean Benitez as "influences" (don't take my word for it, just listen) and Rudy shares with us a humorous incident brought on by the band's move to 4AD.
Just so you know, listeners--I passed up a trip to look at eagles, for goodness' sake, and eat delicious local ice cream, so this conversation could happen. Do you see what sacrifices I make in order to bring you this stuff? Rudy, for his part, was late for dinner, which is why we had to cut this off and agree to speak another time--he too deserves your special thanks, for this and of course for the music. Part Two coming soon is available here.
Yes I know I can look at eagles whenever, but still.

Little Annie: Full Interview
Thursday Sep 05, 2013
Thursday Sep 05, 2013
This is the recording of an interview I conducted with Little Annie on August 20, 2013. I was in the control room of WRFI and she was...somewhere else. I wish the phone connection had been better, but it was good enough.
Portions of this interview aired on the Hall of Legends special featuring Little Annie's music. Actually, that's a bit understated--most of it appears there. But here's the whole thing, in order, with everything in its proper context.
It was quite an honor to speak to Little Annie, whose music I have followed for a long time. I hope the conversation is as fun for you as it was for me.
