With Mike Lupica
Freeform radio for creative weirdos and deskbound dreamers. A sonic one-stop for Acid Dub, Beardo Bhangra, Micro-Folk Turntablism, Krautdrone, Cambodian Synthwave, Glam Pop, Art-Damaged Metal, Electro-Stoner Jazz, Proto Soul-Punk, DIY Hip-Hop, Psychedelic EDM, Minimalist Power Violence, Pre-Hipster NYC Weirdcore, and Afro-Hillbilly Futurism. Up and down this goddam dial since 1992.
What's up, Wednesday Night Pitcrew. This evening, I address you in puddle/zombie form, thanks to a server at our transmitter site that went kaplooey and took down our webstreams along with our ability to air live broadcasts until earlier this afternoon. Although the problem is now fixed, the fact that this outage occurred during a week when the staff is down to skeleton crew levels means that I've had only the faintest whiff of sleep since Tuesday. Did I mention we've also been killing ourselves to get all of the Fall membership drive packages into the mail for all y'all? Well, that too.
As such, since I've had zero time to investigate any of Britain's latest hitmakers (in the metaphysical sense), most of tonight's selections are of the moldy oldie variety, yanked haphazardly from my large and unspectacular vinyl collection. We'll get back to the business of spinning new sounds next week, but between the tech woes, the frantic packing and shipping, my hosting of the New Music Hour this past Monday, and running the chat on last night's rebroadcast of my show from last week, I need a night of mercy.
But fear not! All of tonight's thoroughly road-tested selections are also 100% Guaranteed and Wednesday Night Pitcrew Approved! So say hello in the chat and please go easy on my because I am literally propping my eyelids open with toothpicks at this point.
