	8:13pm Samfiman: 4 songs for each year for the 10 year revue? beyond the abyss, forward da bass!
	8:14pm Flash Strap: ↳ Samfiman @8:13 i thought about that, but so early in the new year i may have to look more forward, as you say, BEYOND
	🥁 8:14pm chresti: ↳ Flash Strap @8:05 Happy 424th!
	8:15pm Flash Strap: ↳ chresti @8:14 thanks Chresti!
	8:15pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "Spook Train" by "Roger Roger & Nino Nardini" very fond memories of this library dive, what a great label. full of revelations
	8:20pm Doug Schulkind: ↳ Flash Strap @8:12 You don't look a day over 423, Flash!
	8:20pm Flash Strap: ↳ Doug Schulkind @8:20 oh Doug you know just what to say
	🥁 8:22pm chresti: Queen Ma ma ma ma...
	8:23pm Flash Strap: I will never, ever, ever stop playing Errol Brown's Treasure Isle dubs. That is an Explorers Room promise and not a hound or stallion in hell can drag me to break it
	🥁 8:23pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Ballistic Queen" by "Errol Brown" Ok gonna test whether I learned anything.... King Tubby?
	8:24pm Flash Strap: ↳ Alex from Media @8:23 alas no, it's a personal favorite of mine, Errol Brown. Duke Reid's nephew, commissioned after Duke's death by the great Sonia Pottinger to do a bunch of dubs of Treasure Isle's back catalog
	🥁 8:25pm Alex from Media: ↳ Flash Strap @8:24 More listening to do. That echo fooled me, thought he was involved.
	8:25pm Flash Strap: ↳ Flash Strap @8:24 i did a whole show dedicated to this special case: wfmu.org...
	8:26pm Flash Strap: ↳ Alex from Media @8:25 i think it was a good guess mate
	🥁 8:27pm chresti: ↳ Alex from Media @8:23 Ha I've been listening since the 80s and I still can't always tell!
	8:28pm Flash Strap: Tubby in particular can be very hard to pick out, everyone sounds like him, he sounds like everyone sometimes, and half the time "he" is Jammy or someone else from his crew
	8:28pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Flash Strap @8:28 Hello Flash, and flashers!
	🥁 8:29pm Alex from Media: ↳ Flash Strap @8:28 Was basing it on the effects. Obviously identifying him is a deeper pursuit. Will listen to the Errol Brown show.
	8:30pm Flash Strap: ↳ Alex from Media @8:29 some of the most delightful dubs of the most wonderful music ever made, imo!
	8:31pm Samfiman: ↳ Flash Strap @8:25 that show looks deep! Not sure if you want to discuss this here, but earlier this year someone asked if you ever play Scientist. I've been curious that with your affinity for ET and Joe Gibbs, haven't heard any Culture? baldhead bridge is falling down! But not to distract from these glorious Takeshi Terrauchi torrents
	8:33pm Flash Strap: ↳ Samfiman @8:31 i dropped a bunch of Scientist tracks in the next show after that comment! I guess i just don't listen to that much Culture, we all have tastes and blind alleys and the evolution never stops so I don't sweat it too much
	8:34pm Samfiman: ↳ Flash Strap @8:33 right on!
	8:34pm Flash Strap: the only way i can be 100% i'm hearing a Tubby dub and not someone with a similar set of moves is if he does his double-time drum thing, and that's no guarantee
	🥁 8:36pm Alex from Media: ↳ Flash Strap @8:34 Thanks for the clue!
	8:36pm Samfiman: ↳ Flash Strap @8:33 to me the culture LP baldhead bridge is similar to the ras michael love thy neighbour LP, but it's probably a more subjective association on my part because of the london bridge song!
	🥁 8:37pm chresti: ↳ Flash Strap @8:33 I love your notes they are positively maniacal!
	8:38pm Kat in the chat: ↳ chresti @8:37 I love them too, just signed in to see them!
	8:38pm Flash Strap: ↳ Samfiman @8:36 I'm gonna give it a spin on this recommendation, i have no memory of it!
	8:39pm Flash Strap: ↳ chresti @8:37 haha thanks, i do this for every show, it's the only way for me
	8:40pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "Alkaline River" by "Ori Barel" God i love this record, i can't believe how good it is, endless replay value for me
	8:42pm wimpy: Great show so far! Thursday nights on the drummer stream are really great
	8:42pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "Chitinous: b) De Blonck" by "Chitinous Ensemble" written and arranged by the man who introduced Miles davis to the music of Stockhausen, Paul Buckmaster
	8:42pm Franco Twinkie: Flash, your notes are AMAZING!
	🥁 8:43pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Chitinous: b) De Blonck" by "Chitinous Ensemble" I bought this LP after hearing it here. Thanks for playing it Flash!
	8:43pm wimpy: I actually picked up a copy of descending moonshine dervishes the other day cause you played Persian surgery dervishes a few weeks ago, so thanks for turning me onto it
	8:43pm Flash Strap: ↳ Flash Strap @8:42 (playing Hymnen to him on cassette in his lambo)
	🥁 8:49pm chresti: I saw the word polka and then saw polka+dot
	8:51pm flannery: hello!
	8:52pm flannery: love these notes, great handwriting
	8:54pm Flash Strap: hey Flannery! why thank you
	8:54pm Flash Strap: ↳ wimpy @8:43 hey Wimpy! i'm so happy to hear that! what a record
	8:55pm Flash Strap: ↳ Alex from Media @8:43 awesome! really cool cover too
	8:55pm Flash Strap: ↳ Franco Twinkie @8:42 hey Franco!
	8:55pm wimpy: Kind of cliche, but I read 100 years of solitude earlier this year and sought out Colombian music after, and came across these guys. I don’t think I was ready to appreciate their music though, maybe I’ll have to try again cause this is fun
	8:55pm Flash Strap: ↳ chresti @8:49 haha bait & switch
	8:57pm Flash Strap: ↳ wimpy @8:55 definitely try again, they're the best band working today i think, a completely genius catalog... i'd recommend diving back in with Donde estas Maria
	8:58pm Flash Strap: ↳ Flash Strap @8:57 some of their stuff, esp. early on, definitely has a barrier to entry. all worth it though! also really really love Cumbia Siglo XXI
	9:05pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Up Above My Head" by "Al Green" This rules!
	9:06pm Flash Strap: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:05 yer damn right on that score
	9:06pm Kat in the chat: Have mercy indeed
	🥁 9:06pm chresti: ↳ Flash Strap @8:55 made me wonder if they're related!
	9:07pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:06 Hey Kat!
	9:07pm Kat in the chat: heya Franco!
	9:08pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Katakomben" by "Gruppe Between" A little bit of Soul Sacrifice.
	9:11pm wimpy: Thanks for the tip, I’ll have to check that out after little Danny’s show
	9:13pm Samfiman: ↳ Song: "Brudmarsch Efter Florsen I Brus" by "Merit Hemmin... is Merit Hemmingson the vocalist we're hearing on this? beautiful voice!
	9:13pm Flash Strap: ↳ wimpy @9:11 my pleasure, i think you'll dig what you hear
	9:13pm Little Danny: ↳ Song: "Vallåt Från Mockfjärd" by "Bengt-Arne Wallin / Ja... i remember loving this at the time... wow need to follow up on that
	9:14pm Flash Strap: ↳ Samfiman @9:13 vocals, organ, wrote, arranged. she's incredible
	9:15pm Flash Strap: ↳ Little Danny @9:13 that's my favorite of her records, but she had a crazy run of great records, so highly recommended! Sabu on that last one
	9:15pm StringOFperils: 1968. The mind unfolds its solar panels.
	9:16pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "When the Wind Arises" by "The Rokes" watched the amazing Dillinger is Dead and came away completely Rokes-loving
	9:17pm Flash Strap: all music lovers must see Dillinger is Dead
	9:19pm flannery: wow looks great. never heard of it
	9:21pm Flash Strap: ↳ flannery @9:19 you would really dig it, i'd warrant a guess. super cult-musical, super psychoanalytical. possibly the coolest movie ever made
	9:22pm Flash Strap: Desperate to see Ferreri's other films. hard to get ahold of
	9:22pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "Jah Jah Version" by "Bullwackies All Stars" one of the most magical Wackies dubs i think. really good use of the vocal
	9:24pm Flash Strap: ↳ Flash Strap @9:22 +typically fantastic use of guitar
	9:27pm Samfiman: ↳ Flash Strap @9:22 this set has had a real magical yet cohesive sound to me, maybe it's the notes and collage below bringing it all together, or maybe it's just been a magical year in music!
	9:27pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "Look Over Yonder" by "Ras Clifton" had never heard this one before putting the Wackie's show together and it's been an obsession ever since, incredible track & production
	9:28pm Flash Strap: ↳ Samfiman @9:27 i love to hear it!
	9:29pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Flash Strap @9:21 Anita Pallenberg's in it, I'm interested
	9:30pm headcleaner: ↳ Song: "Jah Jah Version" by "Bullwackies All Stars" Am quite enjoying this interweaving of recent moments
	9:30pm Flash Strap: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:29 yeah exactly! same reaction from me when i saw Michel Piccoli's in it, as well
	9:30pm Flash Strap: ↳ headcleaner @9:30 hey headcleaner!
	9:31pm Flash Strap: probably didn't need to pull 3 tracks from this one show, but man this was one of my favorites of the year
	9:33pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "Polka Dots" by "The Underground Vegetables" a little early dub-meets-Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, what a pleasure it was coming across this one
	🥁 9:33pm tom tom the pipers son: awesome strings
	🥁 9:34pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Polka Dots" by "The Underground Vegetables" Love the old timey mexican strings with the reggae.
	9:34pm Flash Strap: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:33 makes one wonder if it's an uncredited Harry Mudie... if not, who, i'd love to know
	9:34pm Kat in the chat: I like the band name
	9:35pm Flash Strap: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:34 me too, i think it's the Sound Dimension by another name
	9:38pm Little Danny: Love it
	9:38pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "Interludio Swing in Mi" by "Bruno Battisti D'Amario" always reminds me of VU's "I'm Gonna Move Right In"
	9:39pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hey Flash Strap and friends!
	9:39pm Flash Strap: Hey Wendy!
	9:40pm Kat in the chat: Hey it's Wendo!

	9:45pm Samfiman: ↳ Flash Strap @9:44 big time!
	9:46pm Samfiman: have to mention Taj Mahal covers Johnny Too Bad with Robbie on the bass, name of LP escapes me

Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from December 19, 2024

View Flash Strap's profile

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.

	8:15pm Flash Strap: ↳ chresti @8:14 thanks Chresti!

	8:20pm Flash Strap: ↳ Doug Schulkind @8:20 oh Doug you know just what to say
	🥁 8:22pm chresti: Queen Ma ma ma ma...
	8:23pm Flash Strap: I will never, ever, ever stop playing Errol Brown's Treasure Isle dubs. That is an Explorers Room promise and not a hound or stallion in hell can drag me to break it
	🥁 8:23pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Ballistic Queen" by "Errol Brown" Ok gonna test whether I learned anything.... King Tubby?
	8:24pm Flash Strap: ↳ Alex from Media @8:23 alas no, it's a personal favorite of mine, Errol Brown. Duke Reid's nephew, commissioned after Duke's death by the great Sonia Pottinger to do a bunch of dubs of Treasure Isle's back catalog
	🥁 8:25pm Alex from Media: ↳ Flash Strap @8:24 More listening to do. That echo fooled me, thought he was involved.
	8:25pm Flash Strap: ↳ Flash Strap @8:24 i did a whole show dedicated to this special case: wfmu.org...
	8:26pm Flash Strap: ↳ Alex from Media @8:25 i think it was a good guess mate
	🥁 8:27pm chresti: ↳ Alex from Media @8:23 Ha I've been listening since the 80s and I still can't always tell!
	8:28pm Flash Strap: Tubby in particular can be very hard to pick out, everyone sounds like him, he sounds like everyone sometimes, and half the time "he" is Jammy or someone else from his crew
	8:28pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Flash Strap @8:28 Hello Flash, and flashers!
	🥁 8:29pm Alex from Media: ↳ Flash Strap @8:28 Was basing it on the effects. Obviously identifying him is a deeper pursuit. Will listen to the Errol Brown show.
	8:30pm Flash Strap: ↳ Alex from Media @8:29 some of the most delightful dubs of the most wonderful music ever made, imo!
	8:31pm Samfiman: ↳ Flash Strap @8:25 that show looks deep! Not sure if you want to discuss this here, but earlier this year someone asked if you ever play Scientist. I've been curious that with your affinity for ET and Joe Gibbs, haven't heard any Culture? baldhead bridge is falling down! But not to distract from these glorious Takeshi Terrauchi torrents
	8:33pm Flash Strap: ↳ Samfiman @8:31 i dropped a bunch of Scientist tracks in the next show after that comment! I guess i just don't listen to that much Culture, we all have tastes and blind alleys and the evolution never stops so I don't sweat it too much
	8:34pm Samfiman: ↳ Flash Strap @8:33 right on!
	8:34pm Flash Strap: the only way i can be 100% i'm hearing a Tubby dub and not someone with a similar set of moves is if he does his double-time drum thing, and that's no guarantee
	🥁 8:36pm Alex from Media: ↳ Flash Strap @8:34 Thanks for the clue!
	8:36pm Samfiman: ↳ Flash Strap @8:33 to me the culture LP baldhead bridge is similar to the ras michael love thy neighbour LP, but it's probably a more subjective association on my part because of the london bridge song!
	🥁 8:37pm chresti: ↳ Flash Strap @8:33 I love your notes they are positively maniacal!
	8:38pm Kat in the chat: ↳ chresti @8:37 I love them too, just signed in to see them!
	8:38pm Flash Strap: ↳ Samfiman @8:36 I'm gonna give it a spin on this recommendation, i have no memory of it!
	8:39pm Flash Strap: ↳ chresti @8:37 haha thanks, i do this for every show, it's the only way for me
	8:40pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "Alkaline River" by "Ori Barel" God i love this record, i can't believe how good it is, endless replay value for me
	8:42pm wimpy: Great show so far! Thursday nights on the drummer stream are really great
	8:42pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "Chitinous: b) De Blonck" by "Chitinous Ensemble" written and arranged by the man who introduced Miles davis to the music of Stockhausen, Paul Buckmaster
	8:42pm Franco Twinkie: Flash, your notes are AMAZING!
	🥁 8:43pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Chitinous: b) De Blonck" by "Chitinous Ensemble" I bought this LP after hearing it here. Thanks for playing it Flash!
	8:43pm wimpy: I actually picked up a copy of descending moonshine dervishes the other day cause you played Persian surgery dervishes a few weeks ago, so thanks for turning me onto it
	8:43pm Flash Strap: ↳ Flash Strap @8:42 (playing Hymnen to him on cassette in his lambo)
	🥁 8:49pm chresti: I saw the word polka and then saw polka+dot
	8:51pm flannery: hello!
	8:52pm flannery: love these notes, great handwriting
	8:54pm Flash Strap: hey Flannery! why thank you
	8:54pm Flash Strap: ↳ wimpy @8:43 hey Wimpy! i'm so happy to hear that! what a record
	8:55pm Flash Strap: ↳ Alex from Media @8:43 awesome! really cool cover too
	8:55pm Flash Strap: ↳ Franco Twinkie @8:42 hey Franco!
	8:55pm wimpy: Kind of cliche, but I read 100 years of solitude earlier this year and sought out Colombian music after, and came across these guys. I don’t think I was ready to appreciate their music though, maybe I’ll have to try again cause this is fun
	8:55pm Flash Strap: ↳ chresti @8:49 haha bait & switch
	8:57pm Flash Strap: ↳ wimpy @8:55 definitely try again, they're the best band working today i think, a completely genius catalog... i'd recommend diving back in with Donde estas Maria
	8:58pm Flash Strap: ↳ Flash Strap @8:57 some of their stuff, esp. early on, definitely has a barrier to entry. all worth it though! also really really love Cumbia Siglo XXI
	9:05pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Up Above My Head" by "Al Green" This rules!
	9:06pm Flash Strap: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:05 yer damn right on that score
	9:06pm Kat in the chat: Have mercy indeed
	🥁 9:06pm chresti: ↳ Flash Strap @8:55 made me wonder if they're related!
	9:07pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:06 Hey Kat!
	9:07pm Kat in the chat: heya Franco!
	9:08pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Katakomben" by "Gruppe Between" A little bit of Soul Sacrifice.
	9:11pm wimpy: Thanks for the tip, I’ll have to check that out after little Danny’s show
	9:13pm Samfiman: ↳ Song: "Brudmarsch Efter Florsen I Brus" by "Merit Hemmin... is Merit Hemmingson the vocalist we're hearing on this? beautiful voice!
	9:13pm Flash Strap: ↳ wimpy @9:11 my pleasure, i think you'll dig what you hear
	9:13pm Little Danny: ↳ Song: "Vallåt Från Mockfjärd" by "Bengt-Arne Wallin / Ja... i remember loving this at the time... wow need to follow up on that
	9:14pm Flash Strap: ↳ Samfiman @9:13 vocals, organ, wrote, arranged. she's incredible
	9:15pm Flash Strap: ↳ Little Danny @9:13 that's my favorite of her records, but she had a crazy run of great records, so highly recommended! Sabu on that last one
	9:15pm StringOFperils: 1968. The mind unfolds its solar panels.
	9:16pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "When the Wind Arises" by "The Rokes" watched the amazing Dillinger is Dead and came away completely Rokes-loving
	9:17pm Flash Strap: all music lovers must see Dillinger is Dead
	9:19pm flannery: wow looks great. never heard of it
	9:21pm Flash Strap: ↳ flannery @9:19 you would really dig it, i'd warrant a guess. super cult-musical, super psychoanalytical. possibly the coolest movie ever made
	9:22pm Flash Strap: Desperate to see Ferreri's other films. hard to get ahold of
	9:22pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "Jah Jah Version" by "Bullwackies All Stars" one of the most magical Wackies dubs i think. really good use of the vocal
	9:24pm Flash Strap: ↳ Flash Strap @9:22 +typically fantastic use of guitar
	9:27pm Samfiman: ↳ Flash Strap @9:22 this set has had a real magical yet cohesive sound to me, maybe it's the notes and collage below bringing it all together, or maybe it's just been a magical year in music!
	9:27pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "Look Over Yonder" by "Ras Clifton" had never heard this one before putting the Wackie's show together and it's been an obsession ever since, incredible track & production
	9:28pm Flash Strap: ↳ Samfiman @9:27 i love to hear it!
	9:29pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Flash Strap @9:21 Anita Pallenberg's in it, I'm interested
	9:30pm headcleaner: ↳ Song: "Jah Jah Version" by "Bullwackies All Stars" Am quite enjoying this interweaving of recent moments
	9:30pm Flash Strap: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:29 yeah exactly! same reaction from me when i saw Michel Piccoli's in it, as well
	9:30pm Flash Strap: ↳ headcleaner @9:30 hey headcleaner!
	9:31pm Flash Strap: probably didn't need to pull 3 tracks from this one show, but man this was one of my favorites of the year
	9:33pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "Polka Dots" by "The Underground Vegetables" a little early dub-meets-Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, what a pleasure it was coming across this one
	🥁 9:33pm tom tom the pipers son: awesome strings
	🥁 9:34pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Polka Dots" by "The Underground Vegetables" Love the old timey mexican strings with the reggae.
	9:34pm Flash Strap: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:33 makes one wonder if it's an uncredited Harry Mudie... if not, who, i'd love to know
	9:34pm Kat in the chat: I like the band name
	9:35pm Flash Strap: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:34 me too, i think it's the Sound Dimension by another name
	9:38pm Little Danny: Love it
	9:38pm Flash Strap: ↳ Song: "Interludio Swing in Mi" by "Bruno Battisti D'Amario" always reminds me of VU's "I'm Gonna Move Right In"
	9:39pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hey Flash Strap and friends!
	9:39pm Flash Strap: Hey Wendy!
	9:40pm Kat in the chat: Hey it's Wendo!

	9:45pm Samfiman: ↳ Flash Strap @9:44 big time!
	9:46pm Samfiman: have to mention Taj Mahal covers Johnny Too Bad with Robbie on the bass, name of LP escapes me
	🥁 9:48pm Alex from Media: Thanks for the great shows all year Flash! Learned so much, so much more to learn. (Wendy, same sentiment 4 U)
