Playlists and Archives for Do or DIY with People Like Us

Upcoming events:

Monday, July 7th, 7pm - 8pm: RIAA

RIAA is the mashup/sound collage project of Los Angeles dj/musician Mr. Fab and his various friends and cohorts. Fab is an occasional DJ at mashup club event BootieLA, and writes the world's longest running strange-music blog "Music For Maniacs." He beat out 50 other entries to win WFMU's "Remix Rudy" contest. People Like Us presents the first peek at "USA," a massive mix still in progress that attempts the impossible task of painting a sonic portrait of the United States, as seen through the surreal funhouse-mirror view of found sounds.

Monday, July 21st, 7pm - 8pm: Blanketship

Bay Area sound collage sample avant pop composer Jared Blum's Blanketship turns the darker side of 60's-70's pop, warped free jazz, easy listening, random conversations, micro tonal synthesis, sounds of the world, fluttered tape playbacks, disturbing melodies and quiet passages along with some broken turntables into mini 4 minute epics. His most recent release "Teen Sounds" will attest to that. Blanketship returns to the air with a new radio piece created exclusively for DO or DIY.

Monday, August 11th, 7pm - 8pm: Gwilly Edmondez

Since the conclusion of the legendary Radioactive Sparrow (in 2003) Gwilly Edmondez has pranced between multiple solo-act personae, most notably Yesterday In Parliament, Virginia Pipe and Copydex. This exclusive session for Do Or DIY features specially recorded material, updates from the frontline struggle for a one true Gwilly - everything and anything from spazzed-out Dictaphonics, deranged a capella, disobedient breaks, and gambled collage.
