Favoriting Mid-Valley Mutations with Austin Rich: Playlist from February 14, 2023 Favoriting

austinrich's avatar View austinrich's profile Favoriting

A combination of collage, new experimental records and other bits and bobs, Mid-Valley Mutations is a tour through the mind of Austin Rich, who has been broadcasting in some form since 1998. Heavily influenced by Dr Demento, Don Joyce and old fashioned College Radio, Austin creates Audio Essays on a variety of subjects, and even just plays records, from time to time. Sometimes Live music and Interviews will grace the program, helping create a situation where you don't really know what you're going to hear, when you tune in. What you need to know is when you enter the Mid-Valley region, be prepared for the Musical Mutations... in whatever form they take.

Mr Fab:

Dating apps are run by businesses that don’t want you to find true love - if you did, you wouldn’t need their app anymore, so how would they make more MONEY??
So: make the apps addictive, and ensure that they rarely fulfill their alleged purpose.
  10:01pm
wenzon:

Tempted to call in for some romantic advice but I can’t knowingly subject my fellow listeners (who I respect) to that inevitable cringe fest. Hopefully somebody else will call in haha

They're also just bad places to be. And yet, I don't leave my home so what's a lady to do?
Avatar 10:02pm
Mr. X:

On average, I've met most of my romantic companions at work, or school, or some sort of ongoing project that lasts a few months. It helps to get used to a person first.

Never had any luck on the apps… agree with that assessment

Like Austin said - going out every weekend. At least Friday and Saturday, maybe more if there’s a holiday or sumthin. Sitting around at home pre-internet was kinda boring. What are you gonna do, watch network tv?

wenzon:

I know a married couple with a kid who met on a dating ap… but there are a lot of things that could explain that… not gonna give the dating ap much credit & it is In these apps interest for some people to hit it off so they have “success” stories to market

In answer to your previous question, Mr. X: Primer Green is sort of a new project. But it's got deep roots. I wrote a few songs for it this year, as my "something new" for 2023.

If I had heard this live I would have told some stories.

There was this one missed connection when a lady on a dating site gave me her number, and I asked her if she is a cannibal and if she wants to eat my organs. Well she blocked me. I was just breaking the ice.
