WFMU: Burn It Down! with Nate K.: Playlist from January 29, 2019

Listener comments!
	9:05pm Marc Francis: Damn.
	9:06pm Marc Francis: It's -10 and snowing up here. This is perfect....
	9:07pm JakeGould: Yes! The Doors!
	9:09pm ultradamno: Snow isn't the issue so much here as ice, freezing rain nearly every other day. You could break out something from that new Residents Eskimo reissue to get in the mood to build igloos
	9:09pm ultradamno: ...the issue here, I meant to say.
	9:09pm Nate K.: @Mark, winter has me down, but I'm getting back up!
	9:10pm medson: Burn It Down vs. The Polar Vortex
	9:10pm Nate K.: And hi, everybody. Thanks for dropping by.
	9:15pm JakeGould: “The Polar Vortex” can’t stop rock and roll!
	9:16pm Nate K.: @Medson, at least for this first set.
	9:18pm CZECHANO: Thanks for the Doug!
	9:20pm dez: evenin!
	9:29pm JetBoy of Brooklyn: Du: Whooooo hooo!
	9:32pm ultradamno: Undertones' "Here Comes The Summer" coming up?
	9:32pm medson: RIP Paul Whaley
	9:33pm Kamp Climax: Isn't it true that the best art has been made by individuals stuck in crappy environments (sold, industrial) and, at times, oppressive. Presently, the USA meets both those standards. Thus, some great art will be made within the next four days or so.
	9:33pm Nate K.: @Ultra, good one, but I didn't pull it. Dang.
	9:33pm JakeGould: Will say this about the cold in NYC: You can at least get a seat on the subway on cold days because lots of people work from home or call in sick.
	9:33pm Kamp Climax: meant "cold" not "sold" but that fits too
	9:35pm I am the Upsetter: These Blue Cheer demos burn! Yes, RIP Paul Whaley.
	9:40pm Nate K.: @Kamp, I respect the positivity.
	9:41pm medson: I always love hearing Mick Collins
	9:41pm javakid: dirt bombs sounding like urge overkill. they are so underrated.
	9:41pm Nate K.: @Upstter, just had a nice chat about Blue Cheer this AM. They rule.
	9:43pm Marc Francis: Thanks for bringing me UP!
	9:48pm Kamp Climax: Nate's show has this flaw: Under the Rock, Rot, and Rules Standard, he only plays those in the "Rules" category, which makes the arc of the show sort of flat. Let's get a little less exceptional every once in awhile. A tad bit of "Rot", a little more of "Rock."
	9:50pm Kamp Climax: I keed, I keed.
	9:50pm Nate K.: @Kamp, all the rot is on the inside.
	9:50pm medson: How did I miss that these guys had new stuff out? Damn
	9:51pm Aitch: I too thought that was an Urge Overkill track (and quite a good one). Been hearing these Strapping Fieldhands a bit lately too, I like it. Stinking hot here in Sydney, we wish we were cold.
	9:53pm twinoak170: Hi Nate and everybody!
	10:00pm Kamp Climax: Nate, don't shake me off again, I'm asking for the slider to the outside corner of the plate. Shake me off one more time, I'm coming out to the mound. Now make the pitch. Captain Beefheart, Zappa, The Fall, Paleface, Daniel Johnston. Make the pitch, dammit.
	10:01pm Kamp Climax: Thank you pitcher man
	10:02pm efd: thanks for reminding me I need to play this Shogun & The Sheets some more, I played it once and then forgot about it somehow
	10:08pm TheJBE: Can't articulate how much I've appreciated your show tonight. It's snowing up here in Northern NE and I just drove home from tutoring a bunch of "privileged" kids at some crappy boarding school. You had me w/ Redd Kross, but then, Blondie, Blue Cheer, and The Dirt Bombs. Holy Christ!! Strapping Fieldhands were a band that I first heard on some comp cassette and I'm like, WTF? Who are these guys? So happy to know they're still kickin' it old skool indie. I'm going to have to pick up the new one. Thanks Nate!!
	10:09pm Marc Francis: Damn. This song!
	10:14pm Marc Francis: @ Kamp Climax: Do you want someone to play those songs that you mentioned? Maybe start your own radio show? Nate and Burn It Down has always been playing nothing but fantastic music. I learn something new every week. Every. Damn. Week. I wouldn't change a minute of it.
	10:15pm ultradamno: I liked that L.O.X. track
	10:16pm spacecowboy: did i miss all the good stuff
	10:17pm ultradamno: Lycanthropes On Xanax?
	10:17pm Kamp Climax: Hell no, Nate's all Cy Young all the Time. All high heat all the time. It's a shut out right now. But he needs a knuckle right about now
	10:17pm blee: Good shit, man.
	10:19pm Kamp Climax: marc, don't worry i'm calling for the curve-slider as we speak, your going to love it.
	10:19pm spacecowboy: sweet nobatternobatternobatter- kelly leak rules- slightly more then tanner
	10:19pm Kamp Climax: here it comes
	10:20pm Kamp Climax: STRIKKKEEEE 333333333333333! Perfect game. Note's the man.
	10:22pm Aitch: Take Note
	10:23pm Nate K.: Apologies, folks. The Internet conked out on me and I got thrown off my game. We're back, though!
	10:26pm Kamp Climax: As your catcher, don't apologize for crap, best knuckle ever thrown on WFMU since Ken from Hyde Park's comment on 12/31/97 at 8:03 AM in response to the playing of 99 Luftballoons.
	10:32pm JakeGould: @Nate: Jim Shepard track: “The track comes from a performance sometime in the early ‘90s at the Milo Arts Coffee House in Shepard’s hometown of Columbus, Ohio.” www.covermesongs.com...
	10:33pm Nate K.: @Jake, much appreciated!
	10:35pm JakeGould: No problem. And the first comment comes from someone who claims to have been the one to record it. I believe him since it’s too specific and esoteric to be a lie: “I actually recorded this on one of those Panasonic boomboxes. It was great it had a condenser mic on the left and right and the sound isn’t too shabby and one of the really great things about these mics minimal hiss. The Milo Coffeehouse was a coffeehouse I started in the kitchen/common area at the Milo Artist Colony. Jim’s performance I believe is from 1991. Along with Jim is Nudge Squidfish (Al Martin) playing acoustic guitar as well. They also performed Sinéad O’Connor’s “Black Boys On Mopeds” and The Doors “Unhappy Girl.” I believe that was the whole set and yes the whole performance does exist I just don’t have that cassette with me here in Cleveland. The funniest and oddest thing is this song has been in the ether long before Matt Horseshit “discovered” it. I in fact call horseshit on that. In fact it is on the first tribute I put together for Jim called “Matter Dominates Spirit” double vinyl record (produced along with Chris Loper) from 2003.”
	10:49pm Aitch: This Ty collaboration worth a listen, there's a couple now by them
	10:57pm Nate K.: @Aitch, probably my favorite thing TS does.
	10:57pm Nate K.: Back on the "sunshine" bullshit for a minute, folks.
	11:10pm ultradamno: Those Venture Bros. albums are great!
	11:18pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Nate and affiliates. Enjoying the sunny sounds tonight.
	11:19pm Carmichael: Heya Nate. Just hanging around.
	11:21pm Carmichael: And you played Cleaners From Venus. You, man ...,
	11:32pm javakid: the chayns and the myrrors in one show. please no stryper trifecta.
	11:32pm javakid: sorry, tryfecta
	11:33pm st Joe: best of Chuck!
	11:37pm javakid: season of the witch anyone?
	11:47pm ultradamno: Did he just work a "that's what she said" joke into his song?
	11:49pm tak: great tunes

Burn It Down! with Nate K.: Playlist from January 29, 2019

View Nate K.'s profile

Music for the revolution in my head: choogling punks; power pop, both skinny-tied and long-haired; soul shouters and girl groups; bubblegum and acid rock; global fuzz; weirdos and outsiders, and the Weirdos and the Outsiders; Archie Shepp and J. Geils. Plus, live bands.

Fri. Dec 6th, 9pm - Midnight: Feeling Figures (More info...)
Montreal's Feeling Figures are led by the songwriting duo of Zakary Slax and Kay Moon. The band's second LP, Everything Around You, was recently co-released by K and Perennial, and while it harkens to the sounds of indie rock's golden age, the album and the band aren't that simple to pin down, as Slax and Moon's distinctive songcraft rise above any easy genre signifier. The band dropped by WFMU on their recent East Coast swing, and with a couple of extra Retail Simps in tow (Zak also does time in that band), a good time was had. Tune in Friday, December 6 to check it out.
Fri. Dec 27th, 9pm - Midnight: Count It Down: The Burn It Down! Best of 2024 Special (More info...)
Nate the K. looks back on some of his favorite LPs, EPs, singles, reissues, and archival releases from the year that was. Tracks will be played in no particular order, because to paraphrase Michael Shelley and Hot Chocolate, respectively, they're all number one hits and everyone's a winner, baby...that's no lie.

January 29, 2019: "We can't go surfing 'cause it's twenty below."
