	4:04pm Mr Fab: brrrr Did it just get COOL in here?
	4:05pm Martinibomb: I had to get my over coat on
	4:08pm Mr Fab: sounds like Barry White goofed up on too much cough syrup
	4:10pm Martinibomb: I think playing this song slower is the funniest thing. It's been cracking me up for years.. yeah exactly Barry White never really put my finger on it
	4:10pm Mr Fab: well I'm laffin!
	4:11pm Martinibomb: the music itself even sounds not half bad at this speed
	4:11pm Mr Fab: makes it more funky too
	4:14pm Rich in Washington: Hello, Martinibomb! Hello Mr. Fab!
	4:15pm Martinibomb: I'm gonna miss Mell Brooks when he's gone. He's getting pretty old. Hey Rich!
	4:16pm Mr Fab: What up, Rich! I knew Mel Brook's "Hitler Rap" but not this one. Mel Brooks actually made more than one rap record?!
	4:17pm Martinibomb: That's funny I haven't heard Hitler Rap -- so I guess he did!
	4:19pm Rich in Washington: Oh man. Dr. Demento memories galore.
	4:20pm Mr Fab: a fave of Li'l Fab. Started indoctrinating here at an early page.
	4:20pm Martinibomb: yes, I'd only heard Dr. Demento twice when I was a kid coming in from Ashland via AM radio waves and this is one of the songs I remember hearing
	4:21pm Martinibomb: Bill Paxton was in the music video for Fish Heads so that's why I played Martini Ranch next .. plus this song is awesome
	4:22pm Rich in Washington: His show had a 'top ten' type format, so you would hear the same songs week after week.
	4:22pm Rich in Washington: Martini Ranch also had Devo members aiding and abetting them, which you can really hear on this track.
	4:23pm Rich in Washington: I have a possible 'in' to interview him next week. I'm kind of terrified. I might chicken out.
	4:23pm Mr Fab: Started indoctrinating HER at an early AGE.
	4:24pm Rich in Washington: Dr. Demento, not Bill Paxton. My Ouji board's in the shop.
	4:24pm Martinibomb: yeah it was Mark and Bob2 that produced that song
	4:25pm Martinibomb: @Fab i put fish heads on mix tape for my 6 year old niece
	4:25pm Rich in Washington: I think Devo members also guest on a Jermaine Jackson LP in around '82 or so.
	4:26pm Rich in Washington: And of course Toni Basil's Word of Mouth LP. She and Jerry C. were an item then, I think.
	4:26pm Martinibomb: Oh yeah I have that 12" jeez what's the name.. uh .. let me tickle your fancy
	4:29pm Mr Fab: Ha, I liked that collage-y goodness there.
	4:31pm Martinibomb: thanks! this whole mix is a little like that. I got into playing with the audio as I was DJn using some new tools to remix it live??
	4:33pm Martinibomb: I try to not make it super annoying tho
	4:38pm Mr Fab: This is a groooove!
	4:41pm Martinibomb: Grease is a guilty pleasure for me.
	4:43pm Mr Fab: I like this Frankie Valli. His high pitched scree that practically only dogs can hear that he used in the Four Seasons makes me cringe.
	4:44pm Martinibomb: I must feel the same cause I don't listen to any of that but man I love that Grease track
	4:49pm Mr Fab: Wow, Etta james covered Sonny n Cher?! SO much better than the original.
	4:51pm Martinibomb: She kills everything she touches - soooo good
	4:57pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Funny how I associate this VU loop with Girl talk
	4:58pm Rich in Washington: Girl Talk stole all the low-hanging riffs.
	4:58pm Martinibomb: I was always impressed that he did all that stuff with Audiomulch
	4:59pm Rich in Washington: His crowning accomplishment was that he kept the Illegal Arts label afloat for many years.
	5:01pm Martinibomb: @Rich yeah I always thought he was kinda crass with his sampling.
	5:06pm Mr Fab: I used to call him the Tone Loc of mashups. Mediocre, but for a very brief period hugely popular with a public ignorant of the real stuff.
	5:07pm Martinibomb: People love familiarity and he took full advantage
	5:10pm Mr Fab: Oh man, that was funny! real tv variety show stuff
	5:13pm Martinibomb: That Nashville Rhythm thing yeah totally! Super silly - grand ole oppery style
	5:19pm Mr Fab: Sarah Vaughn in a dubwise stylee? Nice...
	5:23pm Rich in Washington: He's actually quite talented at it, but it's kind of easy to make crowd pleasing, booty-shaking music out of the best bits of crowd pleasing booty-shaking music. He's sort of the Led Zeppelin of appropriation music. He doesn't reframe anything or contextualize anything. It's rarely humorous or ironic. TradeMark G more accurately classifies him as a 'remixer'.
	5:24pm Rich in Washington: REcontextualize, I meant.
	5:25pm Martinibomb: It's boring to listen to for me
	5:26pm Martinibomb: I always thought of him as an ADHD DJ
	5:28pm Mr Fab: I loved "Life on Mars" (orig UK version). I should really check out "The Sweeney."
	5:30pm Martinibomb: Oh yeah! Big fan of that original series of Life on mars. Yeah Gene Hunt is effing awesome!
	5:30pm Martinibomb: I really love the Sweeney series I've watched em all. John Thaw is the original Gene Hunt
	5:31pm Mr Fab: I thought that was Gene 'unt in that sample from 'The Sweeney.'
	5:32pm Martinibomb: May as well be Lol
	5:37pm Mr Fab: My work week actually starts on Wednesdays and goes thru Sundays. In other words, this is my Monday. so i appreciate the invigorating musics
	5:39pm Martinibomb: Yeah I think this mix is good for doing work and tuning everything else out. This Tokyo Cosmonauts is the only Martinibomb on vinyl by the way.. red vinyl :-)
	5:44pm Mr Fab: btw, LA sez: "Portland, you can take your weather back now, please."
	5:45pm Martinibomb: I've been kinda laughing about the rain down there. And it's been super nice and abnormally warm up here.. It's like we switched weather patterns???
	5:51pm Mr Fab: yeah, i've seen guys still walking around in shorts, short sleeves... boogaloo, mi mucho gusto el boogaloo!
	5:53pm Martinibomb: That's about it for this show. But if you stick around past this next song by Ivan Cattaneo I threw some more cutup nonsense in because I had a little extra time.
	5:56pm Mr Fab: this show was da (Martini)bomb, round of applause
	5:57pm Martinibomb: You're too kind!
