Listener comments!

Tony Coulter:

This show will feature three French Magma-influenced prog/fusion bands: Xalph, Troll, and Xaal. Two of the tapes are unreleased demos, so if you're a Zeuhl fan, be sure to tune in. (The show won't be archived.)
  11:57am
MrFab:

So does that mean that these bands will sing in their own invented languages, too?
Avatar 11:59am
Tony Coulter:

Sadly, no. (Heya, Mr. Fab!)
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 12:02pm
listener james from westwood:

Good Tuesday, Tony and all! I read that as "unreleased demons," but maybe that's correct, too. We shall see....
  12:02pm
MrFab:

And they claim to be Magma-influenced? Death to false Zeuhl!

(Heh heh, howdy Tony.)

I take it Troll was Tolkien influenced. Maybe not to the point of Bo Hansson.
Avatar 12:07pm
Tony Coulter:

Hey ho, Listener James, DCE, and Kay!
Avatar 12:09pm
Tony Coulter:

All 3 bands today have the patented throbbing, hiccuping Magma-oid bass sound.

DCE:

I think I'm really going to enjoy this version of Tape Hiss...
Avatar 12:11pm
Tony Coulter:

Well, I can guarantee there'll be plenty of hiss.
Avatar 12:20pm
Tony Coulter:

By the by, K7 (as in the title of this tape) is just the French abbreviation for cassette.

Rev. Turnip Druid:

Just getting here. Greetin's..
The electric piano is giving this Xalph a nicely Muffins-esque vibe..
Avatar 12:25pm
Tony Coulter:

Heya, Turnip!

Yep -- Magma on a muffin!
Avatar 🥁 12:28pm
Rev. Turnip Druid:

ah, missed the explanation comment at top. But of course... There is a bit of a Muffins/Magma connection as well. One big happy zeuhly family..

Hi Tony, all...very magmanimous of you to share these tapes with us.
Avatar 12:37pm
Tony Coulter:

Ha! I vander if there's a pun in there somewhere. (Hola, Jeremy!)

listener james from westwood:

Really glad I'm in the office today. Would have hated to miss this. All hail the Tony Coulter Tape Vault!
Avatar 12:51pm
Tony Coulter:

Thanks, James! I was a little worried that this show would be too narrowcast -- but I suppose it's not a bad thing to dig deep into one style occasionally.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 12:54pm
listener james from westwood:

Hey, one person's "narrow" is another person's "focused" or "spotlight." Viva la freeform!

Tony Coulter:

Heya, Uncle Michael! My next show will be nothing but blank tapes and the spaces between songs.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:02pm
Uncle Michael:

How about making a C-0.5 and playing it in an auto-reversing deck for three hours?
Avatar 1:03pm
Tony Coulter:

That'll be my talk-over music.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:03pm
Uncle Michael:

Better still, a C-0.5 and a C-0.6, both in auto-reversing decks and mixed...
Avatar 1:05pm
Tony Coulter:

Sounds like early Minimalism -- Hiss Phase Patterns.
Avatar 1:16pm
Tony Coulter:

Oops -- I think the track on now is actually "Gya Tei."
Avatar 1:18pm
northguineahills:

I must be asleep, I never noticed the mic break. I was wondering how long this tape side was going to be.
Avatar 1:19pm
Tony Coulter:

And here, finally, is "Xessandereleph."
Avatar 1:20pm
Tony Coulter:

Greets, NGH! This side of the tape is long -- around 47 minutes.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:24pm
Uncle Michael:

For the last six weeks or so, when at work, I listen to music in mono and only in one ear. I wonder what effect this will have on my brain.
  1:26pm
Magmafied:

This is Zuehlicious.
Avatar 1:26pm
Tony Coulter:

@ Uncle Michael: One ear will grow to be much larger than the other. And your brain will slide, like jello, to one side of your brain pan.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:28pm
Uncle Michael:

What's the advantage of that, Tony? How can I leverage this to my benefit?
Avatar 1:31pm
Tony Coulter:

Maybe start a line of headphones for one ear only? Eventually Apple will buy you out and you'll be a billionaire.
Avatar 1:34pm
Tony Coulter:

Guess I should have said "a line of headphone."
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:40pm
Uncle Michael:

Beat
Avatar 1:40pm
Tony Coulter:

By the way, the abrupt end to the last Xalph track is just the way the cassette cookie crumbles.

Also, do not fear: Troll doesn't spend too much time trying to be funky.

The Hiss Army could use a few more good prog fans for this particular show. Arise from the woodwork, proglodytes!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 2:05pm
listener james from westwood:

^^^ would fave that comment were it a tweet.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 2:08pm
listener james from westwood:

I just tweeted that folks have this chance to snag the last hour. Hoping the prog fans have their #prog hashtag ears on (or ear on, if they've also been spending time listening mono).
Avatar 2:10pm
Tony Coulter:

Ha! Thanks, James! I am not a tweeter-bird myself -- FB is all I can handle when it comes to social media.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 2:15pm
listener james from westwood:

Someone's already retweeted me, so I also tweeted the fact that every other week's an unarchived show, but that the regular shows have been known to speak prog, too. Hope folks join in this week or next!
Avatar 2:16pm
Tony Coulter:

Thanks much!

@ listener james - good source to gather proggers on FB is "Crusie To The Edge", too - FYI!

the CTTE Group on FB, that is!

Enjoying you (quietly) in the dentist's lobby while my daughter gets a cleaning. Hi Tony!

Doug, anything good in last October's "Highlights?"

listener james from westwood:

Geez, Doug, some graduation present!
Seriously, wish her my best. She's the luckier of the two people I know having dental work today (the other is surgery), but still, dental visits only reach a certain apex of fun.

listener james from westwood:

UM, I was always more of a "Cricket" kid. (This may explain my introversion.)

Doug's probably catching up on Field & Stream. Great piece on sighting scopes from February 2011.

Fine show today, Tony. I'm gonna miss this headspace.

Thankers, UM!

thanks Tony! this was great!

I'd be starring this show if I could, Tony! Many thanks for the hissage!
