Morning.

Wed. 4/23/08 9:05am England:

afternoon.

Wed. 4/23/08 9:06am Ken:

Hi there JJZ, it's just you and me and England today. And we are joined for the first time by Traktor 3, so prepare yourself for self indulgent noodling. I need to learn..

Wed. 4/23/08 9:06am uta:

sunny afternoon!!!

Wed. 4/23/08 9:07am JJZ:

Any new features we should be looking forward to? Or maybe I should just be surprised.

Wed. 4/23/08 9:08am PMD:

Got any anti-curry songs? Had a bad curry Mon. night and spent all day yesterday, well, .... youdon't want to know.

Wed. 4/23/08 9:08am Ken:

Yes, let's see how many you can identify! No pictures today, sorry about that! Next week though, I'll start posting slideshows hopefully.

Wed. 4/23/08 9:10am north guinea hills:

PMD, i was in your shoes last tuesday, except for the fact i made my own curry and found out that i was allergic to the curry i used. damn, did that suck!

Wed. 4/23/08 9:11am Parq:

Ken, while we're on the subject, what's that thingummy next to your "Ken's Other Playlists" link?

Wed. 4/23/08 9:12am jan:

Excellent. I just realized that this is Kensday morning, the best morning of the week

Wed. 4/23/08 9:12am fern:

They were filming the NEW & IMPROVED Taking of Pelham 1-2-3 in Astoria yeserday. I got a walk-on part (meaning I walked through a scene as they were filming). It's N&I 'cause Denzel Washington and John Travolta are in it. So it'll suck.

Wed. 4/23/08 9:12am JJZ:

I was looking at that. I was thinking that maybe I should get a Digg account finally so I can hit those buttons I always see.

Wed. 4/23/08 9:12am sugarwolf:

Parq, I was just about to ask that!

Wed. 4/23/08 9:14am England:

England would like a step by step demo of the new Traktor features, please

Wed. 4/23/08 9:17am JJZ:

Maybe that backwards bit?

Wed. 4/23/08 9:17am m p:

the eternal buzz brass band do a kickin' pelham cover.

Wed. 4/23/08 9:17am jonathan:

i hate hollywood

Wed. 4/23/08 9:20am dlroth:

whhhhhaaaahhhhhhwooooo - Sweden!

there are only two movies to see - ever!

1) "The Naked Prey"
2) "No Blade of Grass"

ha ha ha ho ho ho he he he

Wed. 4/23/08 9:20am John from Oslo:

MMMMmmmmmm Hollywood, between two slices of rye and jarlsberg, yummy yummy yummy

Wed. 4/23/08 9:22am Parq:

My own prediction is that the new Pelham will suck, but even if it's okay, it won't have any of the original's impact, for all of its CGI wizardry. I'd comment on how Hollywood is out of ideas, but that itself would just be retread.

Wed. 4/23/08 9:24am Torbjorn:

Give waffle-peace a chance !

Wed. 4/23/08 9:24am Charles:

Good morning, Ken. Thanks again for the great radio. Yes, I fondly remember your Traktor training sessions of yesteryear, you and Scott inspired me to get a copy for my PC!

Wed. 4/23/08 9:30am Ken:

That Share thing is to allow you to share this playlist page on Facebook, Digg, Del.icio.us, etc. use it and use it often, for my show and any other FMU shows that have that share tool on them!

Wed. 4/23/08 9:35am Parq:

And if I use it, and select, say, Digg, what happens? Today's playlist gets posted as a Digg blog entry?

Wed. 4/23/08 9:36am uta:

Ken,, that metallic sound before, not the metal track,, was making DATA (my ext HD) sing.. is that another feature of the new traktor?

Wed. 4/23/08 9:45am Vivian:

This set expresses the crap I went through this weekend.

Wed. 4/23/08 9:45am Dickdong (UK):

Hello Ken, Hello England on St George's Day and Shakespeare's birthday. My T shirt has arrived, thank you, it's rather smart.

Wed. 4/23/08 9:46am uta:

There it goes again..

Wed. 4/23/08 9:50am JJZ:

I'm reminded how when I watch DVDs on the train, I often like time compressing them.

Wed. 4/23/08 9:50am John from Oslo:

Ok, so Traktor, does reverb, echo, altered time signatures and sampled overdubs - now we want pitch-shift - ever excellent master didi-j-ken

Wed. 4/23/08 9:53am dei xhrist:

Fashionably late check-in form NH, sorry I wasn't here for the day's setting. Still haven't seen Naked Prey. My movie pusher hasn't manifested a copy yet. Haven't even seen Piano Tuner of Earthquakes and I am such a Quay hag.

Wed. 4/23/08 9:55am uta:

humm,,, time bending is my fav feature so far..

Wed. 4/23/08 9:57am JJZ:

It sounded pretty good. Smoother than I seem to recall Tatu being, but I might be misremembering.

Wed. 4/23/08 9:59am billyjam:

hey Ken, thanks for the Traktor trailer - whose speed slowing down feature is on my faves

Wed. 4/23/08 9:59am Ken:

And bad news on the tATu front! The movie has been renamed "You and I" instead of "Finding tATu!! How terrible is that!? And no to be released in the US till Spet 1 mow. Possibly straight to video...

Wed. 4/23/08 10:03am dei x:

I find the mashup/mockup Led Zep much stronger than the original. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CO7FPU7a2g

Wed. 4/23/08 10:03am JJZ:

I prefer pancakes over waffles.

Wed. 4/23/08 10:05am lurdan:

I am eating a waffle. Although it is cold as toaster is busted.

Wed. 4/23/08 10:05am Tristram in Brooklyn:

Is it that they're still frozen?

Wed. 4/23/08 10:06am dei x:

obviously your pie-hole still works

Wed. 4/23/08 10:06am Dickdong:

I'm a waffle virgin - I've never had a waffle.
Mind you I don't think I want a waffle

Wed. 4/23/08 10:07am Tristram in Brooklyn:

Or that Billy jam stole it as he still has the munchies after 4/20?

Wed. 4/23/08 10:08am lurdan:

yes. Frozen.

Wed. 4/23/08 10:09am Tristram in Brooklyn:

WFMU are so PC that they banned Microwaves?

Wed. 4/23/08 10:11am megan:

carly, the goth irish chick, sang "jesus christ superstar" on american idol last night, ken. it wasn't as good as your rendition of "heaven on their minds", but it was pretty good.

Wed. 4/23/08 10:17am John from Oslo:

Elakelaiset is playing in Essen Germany today, and Hamburg tomorrow, according to http://humppa.com/humppaenglish.html

Wed. 4/23/08 10:19am Doug:

Hey, this is sort of relevant to the Traktor conversation. Pretty amazing stuff. http://musicthing.blogspot.com/2008/04/echo-nest-website-that-turns-mp3s-into.html

Wed. 4/23/08 10:19am ross:

the only good thing about AI is after she sings some sappy song, they show her weirdo face tatooed husband in the audience...

Wed. 4/23/08 10:20am Negator:

Ken! Ken! Ken! Ken!

Wed. 4/23/08 10:23am Ken:

Wow, I couldn't figure out how to turn that thing off!

Wed. 4/23/08 10:23am ross:

hey! you guys just got a million clams, can't you buy a new cd player?

Wed. 4/23/08 10:28am dei x:

I always expect it's part of the song.

and, positively, http://pem.org/exhibitions/current.php Maori tATus

Wed. 4/23/08 10:42am ?:

You can't eat your Waffle, because you gave it to the Hilary campaign, for a tax deduction?

Wed. 4/23/08 10:44am sugarwolf:

Baccara!!!!! YAY!

Wed. 4/23/08 10:47am dei x:

nihilist spasm band?

Wed. 4/23/08 10:51am Tristram in Brooklyn:

Is there a prize for guessing why Ken can't eat his Waffles?

Wed. 4/23/08 10:53am Webhamster Henry:

How about Traktoring some of the excellent versions of POPCORN that were posted in the blog?
http://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2007/03/79_versions_of_.html

Wed. 4/23/08 10:54am Tristram in Brooklyn:

.....and if he"can't" eat his Waffles, does that mean he's willing to share?

Wed. 4/23/08 10:56am onken:

frenchbloke yes yes yes !!

Wed. 4/23/08 10:58am BillyJam:

hey Tristram in Bklyn - you already guessed right earlier and hence you win a prize which you can claim here on WFMU on Friday afternoon - Hellllloooo Waffle

Wed. 4/23/08 10:58am JJZ:

Maybe there should be a Traktoring of The Brown Whornet.

Wed. 4/23/08 10:58am dei x:

Ken, you "may" eat your waffle?

Wed. 4/23/08 10:58am mouth from the south:

Best thing FMU has done recently: add the "pause comment auto-update" feature for the blog.

Wed. 4/23/08 10:59am Dickdong:

Ken's unplugged the waffle maker to plug in his laptop, that's why he can't eat his waffle.

Wed. 4/23/08 11:00am Tristram in Brooklyn:

I did? Now I'm confused.....and I was having so much fun!

Wed. 4/23/08 11:04am uta:

I like pie!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3x87Ls2MXpM&feature=related

Wed. 4/23/08 11:04am Parq:

Shut up and keep kissing the babies, Ken.

Wed. 4/23/08 11:04am sahak:

waffles are pancakes with syrup traps....i miss mitch hedberg :(

Wed. 4/23/08 11:07am Carmichael:

Good Left Coast morning, Kenneth and all. Randomly, I just received my dapper WFMU anniversary shirt. I wear with glee. I'm holding out on watching American Idol until Jeff Beck makes his triumphant comeback. Ken, what gave you the inspiration to play the Shangri-Las and Roxy Music back to back? And I missed Nina Simone again! Pancakes are the American breakfast dream, while waffles are a calculated totalitarian invention designed to lure teens into unprotected sex.

WAFF = communist
LES = torture

Wed. 4/23/08 11:09am dei x:

I would like to hear everyone in the studio come in an shoot Andy with rubber bands.

Wed. 4/23/08 11:10am uta:

too busy on the foreign policy to eat his waffles ...?

Wed. 4/23/08 11:11am Negator:

Waffles are Satan's way of destroying my diet first thing in the morning.

Wed. 4/23/08 11:23am ross:

i saw Bubbles the other day, he says "hello"...

Wed. 4/23/08 11:24am -max-:

We should arraign a screening of the tATU movie for all of the Kennesday morning regulars at Andy's swank screening room. And Beth can serve up some waffles.

Wed. 4/23/08 11:25am -max-:

Typo alert! Sorry.

Wed. 4/23/08 11:26am BeeHiver:

Why can't you eat your waffles? Secret service says no because they have all those damn cells. They've been determined (assumed) to be sleepers... tourist sleepers.

Wed. 4/23/08 11:26am Tristram in Brooklyn:

What you need Ken, is a relaxing game of Petanque, to quell your waffle fetish.

Wed. 4/23/08 11:30am Parq:

Why not leave our cake out in the rain?

Wed. 4/23/08 11:31am weiterso:

i need a ticket for Elakelaiset 26. in Berlin (soldout)!

Wed. 4/23/08 11:32am ?:

Why not a throwing pie contest?

Wed. 4/23/08 11:32am JJZ:

Speaking of cake, people should play Portal. It's short, fun and cake-oriented.

Wed. 4/23/08 11:40am sahak:

is ice cream cake concerned cake? i think its just ice cream

Wed. 4/23/08 11:41am sahak:

considered...wow and i go to college

Wed. 4/23/08 11:42am uta:

weiterso,,,, maybe if you post a note in xberg around lido...

Wed. 4/23/08 11:50am billyjam:

wot up Sahak? Why aren't you in college right now? Oh you are cruising in the mom's whip listening to FMU

Wed. 4/23/08 11:50am weiterso:

aus purer Not: uta, do you have a ticket for me?

Wed. 4/23/08 11:51am Ken:

I also need a ticket to Elakelaiset in Berlin. As well as airfare to Berlin. TIckets anybody?

Wed. 4/23/08 11:51am Cecile:

Wow, vinage Floyd!

Wed. 4/23/08 11:51am Cecile:

vintage. Der.

Wed. 4/23/08 11:52am -max-:

Hobos like pie.

Wed. 4/23/08 11:53am Negator:

Ken, this song makes me want to smoke weed. Thanks!

Wed. 4/23/08 11:53am dei x:

Barrett is vintage Floyd - this is just the opening riff to Flash Gordon.

Wed. 4/23/08 11:54am uta:

no ticket for me either ..

Wed. 4/23/08 11:54am sahak:

yo billy jam! im at college doing a research paper on terrorism

Wed. 4/23/08 11:55am uta:

many people like pie!!!!

Wed. 4/23/08 11:55am Parq:

Hearing the Floyd made me feel like I'm college age again - what a horrifying thought. Max, I also prefer pie.

Wed. 4/23/08 11:57am -max-:

We're all hobos on this bus!

Wed. 4/23/08 12:00pm Vicki:

This is my favourite loop ever

Tue. 4/29/08 12:39pm Ozzy Skateboard:

if you eat your waffle everything will get sticky
and that is a no no in the studio!
