WFMU: Jason Elbogen: Playlist from August 23, 2013

Listener comments!
	6:03am Jason Elbogen: G'morning!
	6:04am Sem Chumbo: Hiya, Jason, and good morning. Your natural voice is an improvement over the robotic-Jason, just my opinion.
	6:07am fred: Good morning Jason and Sem Chumbo
	6:09am Sem Chumbo: HI, fred. Is the country still on vacation?
	6:12am fred: Pretty much, but not me
	6:14am Sem Chumbo: Quel dommage.
	6:16am Berg: greetingz - yes, most of the country is basically shut down for a month, except for Fred and me
	6:16am fred: Though I have to take next week off again. I'd rather get money instead, but this isn't happening this year
	6:19am Sem Chumbo: It is encouraging to know that the essential services of the Republic are in the hands of FMU listeners:)
	6:44am Jason Elbogen: [this Jing-Li song was on the 'almost-made-it' shortlist for my Great Victory comp]
	7:16am MeinWalkmanIstKaput: Hello from Brizzle - Better late than never
	7:18am ausmanx: good evening djelbogen and everyone. i am wondering if Los Issifu is a little ecumenical... are there recordings by L. I. and his Jews, or L. I. and his Christadelphians, or L.I. and his Satanists?
	7:21am Jason Elbogen: Aus-- Maybe the Issifu cover will make the answer clear?
	7:31am ausmanx: well, as that's the Taj Mahal in the corner of the cover, L.I. is quite cosmopolitan, at least... molto ethnic, for sure.
	7:38am Jason Elbogen: I'm not accidentally playing this song twice this set, am I?
	7:44am Thibault: right, chanson éternelle = eternal song (and as for me, I didn't hear the Ubayd Salim song twice)
	7:45am Marmalade Kitty: Ahaha..fezzan.. Fezzov.. Justlike that!
	7:47am Marmalade Kitty: Tommy Cooper! :)
	7:49am fred: Thanks Thibault, I'm a bit distracted today. I found out yesterday that my boss made a typo when emailing me about a submission deadline: it's not 9/30, it's 9/3.
	7:52am -> Ming the Merciless <-: Hey: Drumming for Jesus!
	7:52am Jason Elbogen: quite a bit of it there, ming.
	7:53am MeinWalkmanIstKaput: Nice!
	7:54am Marmalade Kitty: I wonder if Tommy Cooper is known in the States? Hilarious man! www.youtube.com...
	7:57am Jason Elbogen: This unknown Hattie Whittle LP is amazing, I think. Can't find any info about her anywhere--picked up the LP a couple weeks back in NYC.
	8:02am Marmalade Kitty: worst beatle song, eva!
	8:02am hamburger: jason - notice you have a leaning to unconventional singers - are you drawn to the authenticity of the spirit in which those songs are sung - as opposed to the clinical delivery of... lost my train of thought.
	8:06am Marmalade Kitty: lyrically awful, that is.. Nice instrumentally.
	8:11am Jason Elbogen: Hamburgler, I think that 'out-of-tune' voices appeal because the 'in-tune' traditional singing is 99% of what people hear. So, the unconventional singers are, pretty simply, more interesting to me in general? Maybe. I've got nothing against traditionally-great singers, either, but I'm sorta open to everything maybe? Maybe a short attention span? I don't know... Actually I think I'm addicted to hearing/discovering new-t0-me music/sounds...
	8:14am Cheri Pi: what DJ'elbogen said
	8:16am Andrew Waterloo: I have the same addiction
	8:19am hamburger: Ah
	8:21am hamburger: Oh cool - this song!!
	8:21am hamburger: from the movie: www.youtube.com...
	8:34am Berg: chanteuse - :)
	8:35am Cheri Pi: pronounce as "shawn-tooze"
	8:36am Berg: agreed with the "shawn" but not the "tooze" Cheri
	8:37am common: holy shit
	8:37am Berg: but english doesn't have that "eu" sound.. though some say "euphemism" correctly
	8:37am PKNY: When did Dire Straits do a song about AIDS?
	8:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - 'AIDS' sounded like Joe Strummer... - I have wondered out loud if anyone has used Autotune yet to put something out of tune to sound authentic...
	8:42am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Dave Davies of the Kinks said he thot guitar-tuners ruined Rock - much less Autotune...
	8:43am Cheri Pi: You're right Berg, I was trying to keep it simple for him. baby steps.
	8:48am fred: @RevRab: re: autotune. That looks hard to pull off, I guess you could put something exactly out of tune, but you'd have to add some variations to sound authentic. I've seen TG Gondard use autotune pedals live, in part because they won't stay properly configured for long. That adds an element of randomness that I like a lot, though you can't call that authentic
	8:51am Polk Biggins: Good morning, party people! Enjoying the show, Jason.
	8:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I have theorized that just as every Continent / Culture has it's own Metaphysical system (it's own 'Qabbalah', if you will) - they each have their own Musical Scale - in fact corresponding to the Metaphysics ('Music of the Spheres' sort of idea) - hence the use of what 'we' (WesternEuropean cultural tradition) call 'microtones' & such - & the 'blue note' in African-American music that is both/neither Major or Minor (- is it Happy or Sad?) - & in fact this is true for Tonalities / Timbres as well (the desirability of a twang or a buzz as opposed to a 'pure' sound) - so what is 'in tune' is subjective & a big subject anyhow !...
	8:52am SeanG: VAMOS!
	8:53am Polk Biggins: what @Revolution Rabbit Nov63 said about D Davies...
	8:53am fred: @RevRab: as it happens, I'm working on a tonality detection software at the moment. The western kind, for a scientific evaluation campaign
	8:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - I think singers - esp. notable/commonly heard in 'African-American tradtion' - going 'out-of-tune' can correspond to a voice breaking w/ emotion - & 'resonates' for this reason. In Free Jazz horns I hear animal sounds - which calls to mind what Antonin Artaud said the mise en scene & such in 'Theatre & it's Double'...The Music will reflect the Environment & the Psychology... - 'A scientific evaluation campaign' ?
	8:57am common: that cop was either being a dick or...just lookin out. probably a dick
	8:58am fred: @RevRab: www.music-ir.org...
	9:01am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - you can tell someone their fly is open as a favor - but put that uniform on & people become harassment machines...all in how it's done...autotune the cop give him a pleasant demeanor...
