Something a little bit different today - a bit more evocative, and very relaxed :-)
More of a soundscape :-)

Bit of background - this is a sound album recorded in 1973 qas part of a wider project at the Simon Fraser University in Vancouver. Similar albums were made as part of the project around the world, to asses sound pollution but also to preserve a sense of place. :-)

Here's a HOOO from me too! Just worked my first midnight-8:30 am supermarket shift, and I'm still awake! This is quite nice and relaxing, my muscles need this.

Hi Mr Fab! Glad it went well :-) How have people been there? Nice and polite I hope :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:19pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

It's actually written as just "ho" in the poem, but that kept cracking me up so I had to do it a bit piratical ;-)

The store is closed most of the night so we can stock shelves and whatnot, but at 7 they let in the oldsters so they can shop with more safety. Hopefully.

I've gone a bit Resonance FM this week ;-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:20pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

@Mr Fab - that's good. :-) A number of markets here are trying to do that, so seniors don't feel so stressed and intimidated.
Avatar 3:21pm
Mr Fab:

You're breaking from the library music format! Which fine, it's great that you can experiment with the form.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:22pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

It's kind of, sort of classified as library music, just because it's not really a popular genre or anything like that. ;-)

Domenic:

This oldster went food shopping at 5:30 AM. ( Open early For people over 60.) I saw one pretty woman and mentioned she should have been carded. Told me she was 67! ...Was i hitting on the senior chicks this morning?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:23pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

But it's nice to experiment a bit every now and then ;-) Keeps me on my toes! :-)

Martinibomb:

Fab & GG something I've run into recently helping young DJs that you will laugh at. We are in a post-mp3 world now. Where the MP3 is like a cassette tape to some people who have only grown up with streaming services.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:24pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

@MB - what's replaced the mp3??? I'm so old!! lol
Avatar 3:24pm
Mr Fab:

@Domenic: Va-va-voom! Older and bolder!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:24pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

@Dom - you saucy thing! ;-)
  3:24pm
Martinibomb:

I've been trying to help DJs make mixtapes since we can't broadcast and MANY of them are like how do I do that? HOw do I get the sound of Spotify?
  3:25pm
Martinibomb:

Spotify & Youtube have replaced the MP3
Avatar 3:25pm
Mr Fab:

You gotta be kidding. Don't they get stuff off iTunes, Amazon, etc?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:25pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

That's crazy.
  3:25pm
Martinibomb:

None of them know where to download ANYTHING it's hilarious.
  3:26pm
Martinibomb:

I've been asked like 15 times.. "where do you get mp3's from?" hahah
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:26pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

More for us ;-)
  3:27pm
Martinibomb:

maybe they get stuff off itunes or whatever.. but i think it just downloads to their phone and they have no connection with the file if it's an mp3 or what it is..
Avatar 3:28pm
Domenic:

Wow Martinibomb. Trying to wrap my head around that. I was speaking to a veteran announcer last week who used to slice radio programs on reel to reel. rotate them slowly to get to the right spot. Special tape...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:28pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

The one and only time I've ever fished was off Vancouver harbour, on a field trip with my school.
  3:28pm
Martinibomb:

It's just so funny to me seeing this now a little over 20yrs from the Napster days when everyone was freaking out about Mp3s
  3:28pm
Martinibomb:

And I'm old enough to remember when cassettes were going to ruin the record industry
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:29pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

It's staggering just how rapidly the music industry has changed in a really short space of time
Avatar 3:30pm
Mr Fab:

I had an uncle who used to take us out on his little boat to fish. Which i didnt really have any interest in. I just liked being on a boat in the ocean.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:30pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Apologies to anyone listening on headphones for this track! ;-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:32pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Well, I caught some tiny little fish and felt horrible about that. And I had to take it home in a little milk carton and kept it shut tight because I was so freaked out, so of course the poor thing suffocated. I presented it to my mother, and it was belly up in there!
  3:32pm
Martinibomb:

@Fab I'm with ya I hate fishing but I love the ocean/water. I got really into surfing when I was younger and also scuba dive.
Avatar 3:33pm
Domenic:

Paid Spotify accounts are legal. So they can use it on air, right? Per FCC.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:34pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Ah - rain and the Pacific Northwest ;-)

BC Sterrett:

Very nice
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:35pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Thank you, BC! :-)
  3:37pm
Martinibomb:

@Dom technically no it's illegal to use Spotify in that way. But try explaining that to someone who only understands it as the way they listen to music. How else would they do it? I expect at some point companies like Spotify will have some kind of digital audio watermark that can be detected if played on air etc..
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:37pm
Photocopy Cha Cha:

I missed the napster craze completely. did not have even a computer then. and no internet connection of my own until late 2013.although around 2005 I went nuts about mp3 blogs, downloading all kinds of music whenever I was online, using any public internet access(university, library etc.) and as a result have stacks of cd-r full of mp3's and other files - and I feel like a human relic.
  3:37pm
Martinibomb:

yeah 2005 might have been the peak of mp3 blogs.. I miss those days now.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:38pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

There was so many amazing mp3 blogs then. I do miss those as well.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:39pm
Photocopy Cha Cha:

some mp3 blogs still exist, just like some fools - like me - insist on using a "Dumb" phone.

Was? Were. My grammar's slipping ;-0
Avatar 3:39pm
Mr Fab:

Anyone remember one blog called Music For Maniacs?
  3:39pm
Martinibomb:

yeh so I'm kinda seeing this world where mp3's go away.. I wonder if they will become collectible?

DJ GeorgyGirl:

Yes!!!! I remember that well! :-)

music for your eyes was an interesting one, it had old music videos like 13th floor elevators, scott walker etc. and then youtube killed the blog's raison d'etre
