Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from July 11, 2019 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

@Flash should clarify that i generally mean the late 70's thru the 80's mostly. (the later stuff can be good too but i don't know it as well). kind of any of the Steve Lacys (esp. Morning Joy (Live At Sunset Paris) or Cecil Taylors. There's a great Coe/Oxley record. The many Pauline Oliveros...I like the Franz Koglman LP. And the McPhees.

Basically in the 70's thru the 80's they put out such great records that if I see one I don't have, I generally snap it up.

GIVE THE DRUMMER RADIO:

Hey there big-eared faithful, just hipping you to the news that the Drummer Stream is expanding once again as we welcome back to the airwaves UNDERWATER THEME PARK, with Meghan. UTP takes up residence on a new day and time beginning tomorrow and every Friday, 7-9am (eastern), immediately preceding Give the Drummer Some.

Also be sure to enjoy our massive nine hours of live radio on Saturday as we officially launch the new program FIVE MILES TO MIDNIGHT. Hosted live from Melbourne, Australia, by the Knave, this new program follows Play Vertigo, Music For a Free World, and Someday Matinee. A wonderful array of marvelous programs!!

As of tomorrow, Give the Drummer Radio will be the happy home to 23 radio shows. (And more are on the way.)

Sonically yours,
Drummer Doug
