WFMU: Observations of Deviance with David Mittleman: Playlist from December 13, 2022

Listener comments!
	🥁 6:58pm WR: Continuing to observe.
	🥁 7:02pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Greetings, DM and fellow Deviant Observers. Just took an Instacart delivery and found the one inevitable f-up -- thought I ordered a bag of apples; I got one apple.
	7:03pm Observations: We are live, greetings
	7:05pm TDK60: Hi DJ David. Just finished my daily music practice; singing, pickin' and grinnin' (or frownin' --depending on tune!).
	7:12pm rf: My goodness
	7:24pm alanr: You're doin' it right, tonight! Saludos from Mexico city.
	7:25pm Observations: Hola from Tucson!
	7:26pm TDK60: Tucson?! Lived there about a year, eons ago.
	7:37pm Ike: Greetings, humans!
	7:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...lurkin' a minute...
	7:42pm Dean: Pedantic jerk here, not a speaker of German, but I noticed your pronunciation of Brötzmann, and I offer constructive criticism. Like Jeff Golick, you pronounce it as if it were spelled Peter Breutzmann, namely, BROYTZ-mahn. But umlaut o (or oe) is pronounced quite differently. It's hard to capture in transliteration. Instead, say "eee" while pursing your lips into an O. The result almost sound like the o in woman. There are nuances to the r, too, but the sharp OY in BrOYtzmann is way off the mark.
	7:46pm Observations: I studied French in college and grad school. Everything else I just make up as I go.
	7:47pm Dean: I studied Spanish in high school, French in college, and German from Guru Guru liner notes.
	7:50pm alanr: I am imagining everyone on the chat testing out Dean's explanation with our mouths
	7:52pm Ike: I tried it out loud and I sounded vaguely Scottish. Or like I was doing a bad imitation of a Scottish accent.
	7:53pm northguineahills: looks at the clock martin * surman, perfect timing! I've always pronounced brotzmann as dean explained above, but i only know german from cinema and recently, tv (deutsche welle in deutsche is fun for the news when practicing).
	7:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: CHEER
	7:55pm Dean: I'm sure there are real German speakers among the listeners who can provide better guidance than mine. And don't forget: it's Leonard BURN-steen.
	7:56pm Listener Gregory: I am more participating in deviance tonight than observing it. Let me know if this becomes intrusive.
	7:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: We has Amplifierz.
	8:00pm TDK60: Really? Burn-steen? I have wandered thru life sayin' Lennyrd BERNSTINE as in "stein."
	8:01pm Dean: (No, not really.)
	8:02pm TDK60: Oh!, nicht verdad.
	8:02pm northguineahills: @TDK: I always thought it rhymed w/ berenstain bears ;p
	8:04pm TDK60: Ha..
	8:05pm Listener Gregory: @TDK, don’t fall for that one! You are correct.
	8:06pm northguineahills: let's not get too fricative o'er here!
	8:09pm alanr: OMG! it's like another Seinfeld routine...
	8:12pm Dean: I gotcher glottal stop right here.
	8:16pm northguineahills: how apical of you, Dean!
	8:18pm Dean: If I had a nickel for every r I rolled...
	8:29pm doctorjazz: Ahhhh, arrived in the nick of (Threadgill) Time) Hi!
	8:34pm Listener Gregory: You have just played cuts from two albums I have, and yet I don’t recognize either song (Iyer and Threadgill)! Doc, is there room in the dementia ward for a new patient?
	8:34pm doctorjazz: Catching up with the rrrrrroutines....
	8:34pm Dean: Digging the Annette Peacock inflections.
	8:37pm northguineahills: i know you're going to do it, ñ ?
	8:38pm Dean: ñever! you iñsult me!
	8:39pm doctorjazz: @LG, you sound like a classic case of Too Much Incoming Music-itis...I often get ready to purchase something I heard on WFMU (thank you Bandcamp "you own this" warning), or do actually repurchase it. Too much music, too little time...
	8:41pm Listener Gregory: Is it curable?
	8:42pm Listener Gregory: This (La Barbara) sounds like the Tuva Space Program.
	8:43pm northguineahills: well, şhit, i'll çust stop right there,
	🥁 8:44pm WR: RE: the Joan La Barbara track you played: "All of the sounds on this record are created by my natural voice, layered to create different textures. No electronic manipulation was involved in the making of this group of pieces."
	8:44pm Dean: A rap artist, right? C Dilla?
	8:46pm northguineahills: well, j dilla was a brilliant producer...
	8:47pm Dean: and Cedille is marvelous record label, owned and operated by RBG's son
	8:51pm northguineahills: that's right that's right! (I knew you would tie this extemporaneous spirant sidebar together)
	8:56pm DL in LA: David, been getting into your show lately. Thanks for your efforts!
	8:58pm Observations: I appreciate your support DL!
	9:06pm Listener Gregory: That sounded more traditionelle than nouvelle to me.
	9:12pm Dean: I thought I had that Ocora, but no. I have a different one from Vietnam. This Company is spectacular.
	9:18pm doctorjazz: Like Aries!
	9:20pm Listener Gregory: This Yang had me stumped. I was thinking v early Cecil Taylor, with a touch of Keith Jarrett. Whoever they are, this is good.
	9:23pm Dean: Gotta split for a poetry workshop. I'll be reading a thing I recently wrote, Fractal Soap.
	9:25pm Listener Gregory: The poem never really stops... it just gets more and more granular.
	9:33pm TDK60: Haven't heard this Hathaway in a spell!
	9:36pm doctorjazz: Gotta run, thanks,David, laters all!
	9:51pm Listener Gregory: @TDK60 (or anyone) do you have any idea who played that electric piano solo on The Ghetto?
	9:53pm TDK60: Listener Gregory, not sure, likely Donny. He also often played acoustic piano. I'm not sure if there were both on that..
	9:58pm Listener Gregory: Thx!
	9:59pm TDK60: Fine show, good night, DJ David.
	9:59pm Listener Gregory: Great show, David. Have a good week and thanks!
	🥁 9:59pm WR: Thank you! David!
	10:01pm Observations: Thanks one and all, see you next week
