WFMU: Krys O's Free-Form Roller Coaster: Playlist from March 30, 2024

Listener comments!
	12:55pm Krys O.: Greetings, all!
	👻 1:03pm fred: Hello Krys and all
	1:03pm Krys O.: Welcome, fred!
	👻 1:06pm fred: The only times I had heard Beyoncé before was to check out talk she ripped off Pipilotti Rist (not really) and Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker (most definititely, for sure, totally)
	1:10pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:06 I heard the chatter about that sort of thing, but never really held it against her. Not sure why that is. I've always been in awe of her voice. This album is goosebumps inducing while under headphones IMO.
	👻 1:12pm fred: But I love Beyoncé because I'm a Unicode advocate. Whenever some music executive type says "who cares about these funny characters" I can say "right, who cares about Beyoncé"
	1:17pm Krys O.: Only on WFMU can we go from Beyoncé to former Swell Maps members.
	👻 1:19pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:10 I don't hold it against her (she probably has no idea who De Keersmaeker is), and it spurred ATDK to release her choreography to another part of the same piece for people to do on their own. But it was still brutal, one of the biggest choreographers today being not even a speck compared to the power of the queen
	👻 1:20pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:17 Only on WFMU is a common theme
	1:22pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:19 I wonder how much of that sort of situation is due to those around the megastar. Supposedly U2 were unaware of the legal action taken against Negativland, at least that was what they claimed after word went public about the devastation it left on Negativland.
	👻 1:27pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:22 I'd say a lot to all of it. Beyoncé's choreographer did a total rip off and knew they had the power to get away with it. U2/Negativland was different, Negativland did poke the bear (good for them)
	1:34pm Michael 98145: Hello, Friends. Just say yes
	1:35pm Krys O.: Yes, hello, Michael 98145!
	1:36pm Michael 98145: 🌸🐰
	👻 1:37pm fred: A couple of years ago a young composer at work had a Negativland-inspired show (he gave kazoos to the audience, a great move), but he opened by saying "I know none of you know about Negativland" So I had a chat with him a week later. He was dismissive at first, then started taking notes. I mean, the guy hadn't even heard of People Like Us! What are they teaching in art/music school?
	1:39pm Krys O.: Just took a moment to read this article about De Kersmaeker's reaction: www.hollywoodreporter.com...
	1:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: Libertie Egalitie Beyoncé
	1:41pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:37 That sounds awkward. He shouldn't have been so dismissive.
	1:42pm Krys O.: Hi, Ken! Oddly enough Cowboy Carter made me think of SAULT and Frank Sinatra's Watertown album, plus some of the psychedelic era albums with drop-ins in the 60s and 70s.
	👻 1:43pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:41 He, making mistakes is the best way to learn (for me, at least)
	1:43pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:43 Ultimately, yes.
	1:45pm Michael 98145: Is Monday a holiday in the EU?
	👻 1:46pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:39 I'm slightly biased there: I have seen De Keersmaeker's work over 70 times
	1:47pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:46 I see her genius.
	1:50pm Krys O.: ↳ Michael 98145 @1:45 Looks like it is in Italy, Ireland, Spain, Germany, Netherlands, Poland, Egypt, and New Zealand.
	1:51pm Michael 98145: ↳ Song: "Ants" by "David Lynch" DumbLand ... ?
	1:52pm Krys O.: ↳ Michael 98145 @1:51 en.wikipedia.org...
	👻 1:53pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:50 It is one in France (I took two weeks off because Sonic Protest and Banlieues Bleues)
	1:57pm Krys O.: My mom used to splash us with a little water on Easter Monday. It's part of a Polish tradition. The full story is rather scary though: en.wikipedia.org...
	2:00pm tom tom the pipers son: hello krys and people...
	2:01pm chresti: Hi Krys and coasters!
	2:01pm Krys O.: Hi, tom tom, chresti!
	2:01pm spodiodi: greetings, Krys O. and all!
	2:01pm doctorjazz: Hi Krys and those riding the Roller Coaster!
	2:02pm Krys O.: Hey, doctorjazz!
	2:02pm Krys O.: Hello, spodiodi!
	2:03pm tom tom the pipers son: oooh that set sounded so good....
	2:04pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:03 Thanks kindly.
	2:05pm chresti: hi spodi !\\//
	2:06pm Krys O.: Gawd, Arlene Smith's vocals make me melt.
	👻 2:06pm fred: One of the main driving forces in experimental music in Paris is Polish
	2:07pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:06 I used to hear a lot of Polish spoken when I walked the streets of Paris in 1981.
	2:07pm tom tom the pipers son: i'm definitely going to archive, i see the set before, nikki sudden, jowe head etc... i meant sounded so good in your description ha....
	2:08pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:07 Still appreciated.
	👻 2:10pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:07 Some villages were outright transplanted to the Somme area, Polish remains a first language there
	2:10pm doctorjazz: Visiting Poland ths summer...
	2:11pm Michael 98145: ↳ Krys O. @1:57 Heh. <<Dyngus, dyngus, po dwa jaja; nie chcę chleba tylko jaja ("Dyngus, dyngus, for two eggs; I don't want bread, only eggs").>>
	2:11pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:10 My mother's cousin lived in Paris. I met her son. I think there were some who left Poland during the Soviet crackdown of the late 70s.
	2:11pm Michael 98145: ↳ doctorjazz @2:10 Only been to Southern Poland. It is beautiful.
	👻 2:12pm WR: Hi Krys and folks. My usual Saturday afternoon, listening while shopping, etc.
	2:12pm Krys O.: ↳ doctorjazz @2:10 Where will you be going? Do you have friends or family there?
	2:12pm Krys O.: Howdy, WR!
	2:13pm doctorjazz: ↳ Krys O. @2:12 Going to Lodz and Klodowa (mom was from Lodz, dad from Klodowa), roots-type trip. Also some depressing WWII places...
	2:14pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Now Available" by "C.W. Vrtacek" This is cool!
	2:14pm tom tom the pipers son: ah interesting beyonce talk in the chat....
	👻 2:15pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:11 Migration from Poland to Northern France is way older I think, but I don't know why it happened
	2:15pm tom tom the pipers son: actually isn't this kaw liga?
	2:16pm Krys O.: ↳ doctorjazz @2:13 Salt mine territory. I saw photos of the salt mines. They are impressive.
	2:16pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:15 It's an homage to the Residents.
	2:17pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @2:16 ah thx
	2:19pm doctorjazz: ↳ doctorjazz @2:13 I think Cracow is also on the itinerary.
	2:20pm Krys O.: ↳ doctorjazz @2:13 My mom was from the defunct Kielce Voivoideship. Dad was from Wilno which went back and forth between Lithuania, Poland, and Belarus.
	2:20pm tom tom the pipers son: is c w vrtacek a real name or does it translate into something residents-y?
	2:21pm Michael 98145: ↳ doctorjazz @2:19 Good! Enjoyed Kraków .
	2:21pm tom tom the pipers son: cracow is supposed to be very beautiful
	2:22pm doctorjazz: ↳ Krys O. @2:20 Wilno, also known as Vilnius or Vilna...
	2:22pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:20 is name polish?
	2:22pm doctorjazz: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:21 That's what I hear as well.
	2:23pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:21 Allison Anders went to Krakow for a film festival years ago and shared some lovely photos including her hotel which was from the 17th century.
	2:24pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:20 It's a nom de plume for the late Charles O'Meara.
	2:25pm tom tom the pipers son: don't mind this xtc, but as i related elsewhere, xtc usually repels me like water on a newly waxed car
	2:25pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @2:24 ah thx for 2:24 2:23
	2:25pm doctorjazz: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:25 (Can't remember the last time I had a newly waxed car...)
	2:25pm Krys O.: ↳ doctorjazz @2:22 en.wikipedia.org... There was also this sticky situation: en.wikipedia.org...
	2:26pm Michael 98145: ↳ Song: "Lined Up" by "Shriekback" good to hear this again -
	2:28pm Michael 98145: How nice that dictators could just redraw national borders
	2:28pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:25 ah i saw barry andrews with league of gentlemen when i was in h.s.... in a small club
	2:29pm Krys O.: ↳ Michael 98145 @2:28 It was impossible to keep track of things and it wreaked havoc, most assuredly.
	👻 2:30pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:20 I came so close to going all VVVVOOOIIIDDDOOODDD!!!, but this is not the right place
	2:30pm Michael 98145: My people left Slovakia when it was still Austria-Hungary
	2:31pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:30 HA! Trust me I said that to myself when I read about Voivodeships many years ago. Here is an explanation of the Polish migration to France in the 19th century: en.wikipedia.org...
	2:33pm Krys O.: ↳ Michael 98145 @2:30 Interesting. I worked with a woman whose family was Slovak. So much shared history.
	2:34pm TDK60: Hi Krys O. I recall McKendree Spring. From Ohio as I recall.
	2:35pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "By This River" by "Alessandra Celletti" these songs so good, wonder if possible to do a bad job covering, wish they were covered more
	2:35pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "I Should Have Known" by "McKendree Spring" Boy, I haven't hear this in a while...
	2:35pm Michael 98145: Guess i had forgotten Chopin had spent most of his life in Paris
	2:36pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:28 Barry reunited with Andy for the Monstrance album almost 20 years ago. It's a good album, from what I recall. Mostly instrumental. Many people are put off by Andy's full-throated singing, I believe.
	2:36pm Krys O.: ↳ TDK60 @2:34 Hey, TDK60! I used to play them in the 80s. Someone reminded me of them last week.
	2:37pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "I Should Have Known" by "McKendree Spring" I recall this getting a good amount of NY FM radio play back in the day...
	👻 2:37pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:31 There was another wave, the one I'm thinking of was rural, not intellectual
	2:37pm Krys O.: ↳ Michael 98145 @2:35 I visited Chopin's grave in Paris. Took the tour three times.
	2:39pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:37 "Interwar period Another wave of Polish migration, this time in search of manual work, took place between the two World Wars, when thousands of Poles were hired as contract workers to work temporarily in France. Numerous Polish farmers emigrated to the southwest of France in the 1920s, as the mass casualties of World War I left that region critically short of farm labor.[6] After the outbreak of World War II Polish refugees also fled German or Soviet occupation.[7] "
	2:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @2:36 that but, i'm mostly put off by production, i can't find my way into the music
	2:39pm spodiodi: ↳ chresti @2:05 hi chresti!\\//
	2:40pm TDK60: ↳ Krys O. @2:36 I just checked on Wickedpee. It says they were from New York State. en.wikipedia.org...
	2:41pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:39 I've followed them for a long time and I saw different phases with different producers, and band members leaving and joining. I became friendly with guitarist Dave Gregory. He's a sweet gent besides being an amazing guitarist.
	👻 2:41pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:37 I was born in Paris (never could afford to live there) but I'd be the worst guide ever. I do know a lot about the subway, but landmarks...
	2:41pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @2:39 a lot of polish workers now, i believe, in germany to pick asparagus during season
	2:42pm Mxter Baba: Meow!
	2:42pm Krys O.: ↳ TDK60 @2:40 There are some similarities between the Adirondacks and the Rust Belt in Ohio.
	2:42pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @2:41 ah its a more complex situation than what i'm seeing
	2:43pm Krys O.: Hello, Baba!!!
	2:44pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:42 Listening to only Colin Moulding's songs is an interesting approach.
	2:44pm Michael 98145: heroic cats!
	2:45pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @2:44 thx for the advice
	2:45pm Mxter Baba: My cat definitely does not demand an equal place—more like total domination
	2:46pm Krys O.: I'm LOLing right now as my kitties are blissfully asleep through all of this.
	2:46pm Krys O.: ↳ Mxter Baba @2:45 Hence my laughter.
	2:46pm Michael 98145: we are just aliens to cats
	2:47pm Krys O.: ↳ Michael 98145 @2:46 We are the help with opposable thumbs.
	👻 2:50pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:47 A regular on Jesse Dorris' show describes himself as a cat butler
	2:50pm tom tom the pipers son: these keys in the b/g are reminding me of sun ra a bit maybe a wish that he did this soundtrack
	2:50pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:50 The main reason for playing this. I love the music.
	2:50pm Michael 98145: those food cans won't open themselves
	2:51pm Krys O.: ↳ Krys O. @2:50 Typically good production music of the era.
	2:51pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @2:50 ah...
	2:51pm Michael 98145: ↳ Song: "Windmills of Your Mind (Mellan Dröm Och Verklighe... oh! Great show today.
	2:51pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:50 Truth.
	👻 2:52pm fred: I'm setting an alarm to go to a cat food drive tomorrow (I'm not home enough to let a cat own me)
	2:53pm Krys O.: ↳ Michael 98145 @2:51 Thank you very much!
	2:53pm tom tom the pipers son: thank you krys....
	2:53pm doctorjazz: Always been dog folks here (see Liala, our new puppy in my avatar). Partly due to terrible cat allergies in family members (get along with "hypoallergenic" dogs.)
	2:54pm Krys O.: Thanks, everyone for being here! Means a lot to me. Take care!
	2:54pm doctorjazz: Thanks, Krys, dug the show!
	2:54pm Michael 98145: ↳ Song: "Windmills of Your Mind (Mellan Dröm Och Verklighe... the robot translates this as Between Dream and Reality
	2:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks for mazurek and music today, Krys!
	2:55pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @2:52 ever cat sit?
	2:55pm Krys O.: ↳ doctorjazz @2:53 I love doggos too, but I'm quite partial to felines.
	2:56pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:55 I cat-sat for Bryce many years ago. His kitties of yore were sooooo sweet.
	2:56pm Mxter Baba: Thanks-O Krys O!
