Do the 'Ahhs' and Do Them Later: Transmission 349, 2017 June 21

This is more or less how I remember the dark months of May and June. It's possible that I have taken my frustration with this particular broadcast and spread it, like butter, over everything else I did in these two months, whether it warranted opprobrium or not. Ill-conceived, lazy, inattentive segues? Come get them. A featured record that skips on 3 out of 5 tracks? This is the place, fren.

Side note: I even manage to feel frustrated with Augustus Pablo, which is not a good look. But explain to me why it's a good thing that the drums are panned hard right in "King Tubbys Meets Rockers Uptown," like some third-rate Big Youth record. It's not even the best tune on the album that bears its name, but it fit.

This was the first program in the season of the year that I like to call #theorycamp, where work for me is best imagined as a 170-tentacled squid. You may break free of some of them, but never all of them--and even if you were to manage it, you couldn't get the experience out of your head, even on dry land. "Scuba Death," indeed! Pretty sure that during the second hour of this program I was doing work emails trying to manage some crisis or other. Apologies--send me snail mail if you want a refund for this mixtape.
