"Minty Rainy Day" by three berry icecream. clowntronics Thu Feb 3 with ameena on WPRB Princeton 103.3 FM

Evening!

hey andy!

hi ameena!

That Pardon Kimura is getting some airplay recently.

hey erica!!

have any other djs been playing it? i think i'm only aware of myself and dante

he should be spread across the station...

this is a cool version. i haven't heard it played. do you recall who played it, andy (and hi BTW!)

hiiii ~ this song is wonderful

hi hiii

love that waterboys cover!

I hadn't heard it, nope. first time hearing it on yr show. good stuff!

it issss

okay, this song reminds me of the chiller levels of katamari damacy

the rest of the album is quite different but also incredible

@ameena - I gotta check it out asap! after yr show!

heheh

Sounding like an episode of from the notebook in here

& esoterica assigned viewing the fog starring adrien barbeau in an earlier chat :)

Ahh I was just gonna ask about if anyone has ever played Katamari damacy music on wprb before

twigggyyyyy

neeeeeeeddd

such flipper's guitar vibes in the previous track

flippy's guitar...

i thought that too!

@Tyler B - Listener Mark & I were talking about J Carpenter's The Fog too, in my chat just before clowntronics ...I wonder how many ppl are gonna watch that/rewatch it in this foggy night

the fog was co-written by Debra Hill, who went to my high school!

oooooh, I love this one. that intro!

that's right, mark! the fog assigned viewing, but instead i am re-reading hamlet tonight, alas

love the intro...

Great show tonight thank you all. And lizbot I was driving earlier so i couldn't chat but had a great time tuning in

@eso followed by Joel cohens macbeth ?’

thanks for tuning in tonight~

@mark, i do want to see that new coen!

@Eso & Mark - so do I! Argh! I wish I could go to a theater! I wanna see the new Almodovar that just came out too

It is mad foggy here in Phila suburbs, too

@Tyler B - thx for listening during yr drive!

no fog over here, been rainy lately though

I think Bryce may have played some Kimura on WFMU.

I think lizbot recommend of bill morrison will be my rabbit hole tonite :)

still LOL at your thought about 80& 90s film restoration!

Here's another rabbit hole, search Youtube with just emojis in the search bar... and brace yourself.

cool, andy! i want to dig further into that pardon kimura

i want to see the new almodovar, too! @liz

@Mark - this eerie night is a perfect time to watch films decay!

That "three berry" cover looks like a vintage Danish children's construction set.

it's epic...

@lizbot quite a bit on you tube to view !

Some films are cinematic decay itself, like "Begotten"

Fog Noir

cinematic decay i hear?

there’s doc about making film the fog on YT I’m gonna watch w ameenas great playlist as back drop

@lizbot it includes debra hill footage

Mark I'm gonna have to watch that later too, thanks for the heads up

perpetual magma man...

@Mark- ooooh, nice! Gonna have to watch that soon. Almost watched the fog with the kid in October, but we had a very solid long list of spooky films to get through

@DSM - Fog Noir! Ha

@Ameena - the aforementioned cinematic decay is in Bill Morrison’s “Decasia” with ambient score by Michael Gordon- I’ve played that score before on my show a long time ago. The whole thing is projected decaying film reels that weren’t stored/restored. It’s hynotizing. Actually, WPRB did a DJ-only screening of it in like...2004..? I remember Jannon Stein and maybe Dan Ruccia were there

ooo that sounds incredible!!

it’s good stuff!

@lizbot the 27 minute doc is pretty good fyi the movies promotional poster says person under 15 not admitted - you’ve been warned !

Nice Japanese music with rnb and jazz, Ameenatronics

i've sort of kept up an interest in.... decaying photographic/film technology for a while and have been exploring it for my visual arts thesis

although i guess more as in using the decaying tools to make things

Ameeeeeeeeeeeenaaaaa ◽▫️◻⬜◻▫️◽⬜

hey jimbeaaaaauuuuux

Ooh a cyperpunk bop

indeeeeed

i guess i haven't thought of cyberpunk for it before...

@ameena - been listening while eating dinner, so was away from the chat and seeing yr post re yr thesis now- I love that sort of thing. I hate to see film lost to time and rot, but decay itself is beautiful.

@ameena - As far as decaying photographic/film tools, I feel like my house is a shrine to decaying tools (with archaic cords/adapter entrails) after living through too many format changes!

Interesting I'm at dinner too, while listening and watching random shows(fairly odd parents)

@liz yess agree... there's something profound about being able to really see something used up until it quits right in front of you... i also love using early digital cameras which has resulted in acquiring an absurd amount of different memory storage formats

not floppy disk though.....

Hi OSsy! I played the intro theme to the game Shadow of the Beast for the Amiga 500 (1989) tonight and thought of you!

Any Iomega "Click" drives, lol.

@Ameena - I wish all my photos/videos from my early adulthood weren’t trapped on old formats like that! I have so many mini DV tapes lost in the fray of many house moves, dead external hard drives with content I want trapped on them, DATs I recorded bands on, the list is endless! I have an entire wall of chonky old VHS tapes, hundreds of them, with home-recorded stuff from my old camcorder!

yeahhh they're all really inconvenient

Hey Liz! Thanks for the reminder of me playing throwback games! Brings DJ Milky Way vibes! Also played some of Twilight Princess and Wind Waker back and forth!

and got phased out and replaced too quickly to remain usable right now

it seems especially hard to get stuff off of tapes now...

Last year I finally finished transcribing over 500 VHS tapes of Stars End to mp3. Never thought I'd get that done.

@Ameena - I documented so many events/shows/etc but then maintaining and accessing an archive over endless format change feels impossible. I deeply resent planned obsolescence, so I tend not to switch to newer formats until it’s virtually unavoidable!

@Andy Wing - oooooof. Yeah, I gotta get on top off transcribing my tapes. Some surely are too damaged by this point. I have stuff going back to the late 70s/early 80s Old clamshell VHS tapes and neither of my two VCRs currently work

Soothing Sounds for Non-Babies!

oops that transition was NOT healing...

@Andy Wing - I’m pissed DVD-Rs & CD-Rs I wrote on with sharpie deteriorated quicker! Nevermind the “stamped” discs- remember CD stampers?! And forget my mini-discs! Those were always inconvenient- couldn’t play in an optical drive and I always had Macs, so 🤷🏻‍♀️

me when i'm healing...

I’ve been digging this show, far-out far-flung sounds that are new to me

@ameena - I am healed!

healing time...

I remember the "dissolving" CD-Rs, argh!

always happy to fling far for new show material :o)

dissolving CD-Rs....

I still have two working VCRs, one is a workhorse Mitsubishi I got 30 years ago.

need aurora so bad rn

Healing With Feeling

@Ossy - re: twilight princess and wind walker - Sounds like you played a lot of gamecube. I never had one of those, but played Cubeivore on a friend’s cube 20 years ago. That game was hilarious

This keyboard “fretless bass” is like a flourescent singing elephant in an animation fest short

That's why its wprbience especially the Ichiko Hashimoto view from earlier.

Gosh, don't remind me about my hoard of obsolete media...including 8-tracks!

hahahah

Healing dreamscapes rounding out the girls night out. Cool! :)

@george going to imagine the elephant while healing now....

@george - 😂 🐘 That’s like Takako Minekawa’s video for Maxi On! Floating elephant girl drifting over buildings

I forgot to mention the elephant is floating through the air and slowly flipping

R.I.P. Milky Elephant art collective

Or

Maybe just tilting

@George - I misread that as glitching at first and was trying to imagine a slow glitch

You know

the decasia/ morrison clips are really interesting working well w ameenas soundtrack underneath their music

Dumbo was a flying elephant. Man those were different times.

@Liz Bot - I'm actually new to them, since being on the lockdown pandemic. I hadn't finished them yet, but TP(for the Wii I'm playing) is so long, intense and dark, but still fun. Wind Waker is magnificent with the gameplay and animation. I played and completed Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 and currently in Sonic Heroes. I played little of Smash Bros Melee on schoolmate's gamecube.

@mark - oh yeah, this would work well scoring Decasia! 🤔 Various PRB shows set to Decasia! Now we’re onto something!

Pachy-glitchy-derm 🐘

Saw Google images of Cubivore, and looks kinda Minecraft and those early 3d cartoons! Currently been playing handful of Nintendo 64 games, Liz

This current song sounds kinda some Zelda music mixed with the Japanese 🌸🌺💠

Love Decasia!

@Ossy - Yeah, come to think of it Cubeivore is totally Proto-Minecraft! I love the cubic sun and moon, which drop to the ground with a clunk!

This song has big moody video game soundtrack vibes

@jimbeaux - it’s so mesmerizing! I am glad I grabbed my chance to see it on the big screen

Big mood. 90s Horror computer game

Beautiful music

@lizbot thanks for directing me towards it don’t complain about your decaying media until you hear him talk about nitrate film 🎥:)

@mark - we’re all just snails riding on record players watching the world rot like in a Zed & Two Noughts 🐌

it’s got to be gorgeous on big screen watching it on an iPhone presently

Also this song could be considered high-quality dungeon synth

IMHO

I've heard this melody somewhere. Can't put together where though

@Liz Lmao, like the scary moon from Zelda Majora's Mask

@lizbot had to look up to see that was a greenaway reference

need to go to shiho yabukis's rural healing commune...

@Ossy - Was that the one after Ocarina of Time? I haven’t played any of these but I like their soundtracks!

This is pure holy and gaming sounding, as if its an end credit of Super Mario 64 or Super Mario Galaxy

This sounds like a fever dream one would have about N64 Zelda honestly

Kurtz said I watched a snail crawl along edge of straight razor that’s my dream that’s my nightmare

@Liz Yeah, Majora is the sequel to Ocarina of Time. I played little of it and don't know too much. Wind Waker and Twilight Princess are also after Ocarina in different timelines after centuries, learning the Zelda timeline

really enjoy seeing all the reactions to isotonic sound...

I’d say this is Spooky Cold Medieval (by tone-loc) but it’s more gospel Hammond organ with that rotating speaker for this fluttery sound

I just added these two albums to my "Dreams" playlist I listen to when having sleep troubles

And thought of this from a Kirby game

These synth arpeggios are like the end of Oahu by The 6ths (the track that Miss Lilly Banquette from Combustible Edison sings on)

@mark - poor snail. I’d rather be a hammer than a snail (sliding along a razor blade)

@lizbot are you an apocalypse now fan ? the 40th anniversary directors cut from couple years ago in theater was fantastic

I don't get a game vibe at all from this. More of a "Welcome to Fujitsu Corporation. Your enhancement technician will be with you shortly." While waiting in the lobby thing. But that's just me.

Now playing Twilight Princess with this moment!

I get Blade Runner vibes, specifically the images described during the Roy Batty speech

I’d rather be a razor blade with a snail sliding on me than a snail sliding on a razor blade, yes I would, if I only could

I’d rather have a snail sliding on a razor blade in front of me than a frontal lobotomy

was that a transmission monitored out of cambodia? :)

mmm, gooey fretless bass

played on a giant reel to reel tape by harrison ford

A taco lips now

Pay later

🐌 🌮 snail tacos are the official food of the apocalypse

So artisanal, the snails sliced themselves into the topping

Had escargot as a side at Brother Bruno's in Manhattan once that was really good.

Too artisanal to bespoke of

Me when i am an Elephant taking a nap with a sheep

If I wanted to prevent from depression I don’t think I’d go to a cold windy overcast winter beach

so true...

Gonna pile on heaps of sheeps to sleep tonight

Hero Sheeps of Sushi 🍣 🐑

Almost time for that juxtaposition in a few minutes. Going from this to Flex is going to be hilarious lol love both shows to bits though <3

Pre-vent from depression, post-vent from depression

Do Japan-droids dream of eclectic sheep?

@AndrewT - Just thinking the same thing. lol

Raw sheep

@jimbeaux they have no mouth but they must baa

Raw mutton

Get y’all mittens on raw muttons

Lamb chops in the freezer are calling.

The lion lies down with the lamb in the Peaceable Kingdom, and the sheep lies down with elephant in the PRBcible Kingdom

Bit on the butt by the bitcoin con, my rhymes bitten, royal tease, couldn’t get my cut mon

Goooooooooooood night

Thank you, Ameena, for another great show! Go get some shleep

glad the witticisms started up late night:) lovely show !

Thx ameeeeena!

definitely schleepy time...

goodnight everyone, thanks for tuning in! :o)

Thank you so much for the show, especially this last hour.

Peace

And the lamb lies down in Rahway

Heavenly, real heavenly Ameenatronics, and indirectly got me playing Twilight Princess on the last few hours of those songs. Have a nice night and you too Liz!

gnight!

haha Lizbot you win !!

Sleeping cheaply on the midnight show

@Liz Bot - That one got doing Carteret wheels!
