And I was thinking, like,
Starting point is 00:01:28 I was doing it for 10 years. You know what I'm talking about. We've had this conversation before. Why are there a lot of episodes? Because, well, a lot of them I record, it's just me alone, and I don't release them out of fear that people won't like them. That's scary.
Starting point is 00:01:40 That's for the Patreon. That's for the Patreon. You need to see what I'm saying. Don't bully me. Joe B., there was a little mix-up last time. I know. Honestly, I'm so sorry. I don't know how I goofed.
Starting point is 00:01:54 I mean, it's not because we talked about it. But then you text me at like 8.15 and said, are you coming? And I'm like in my jammies. And I was like, oh, my God. You don't apologize. I totally messed up. I biffed. And I'm like in my jammies and I was like oh my god. You don't apologize. I totally messed up. I biffed. And I'm not a biff man. No you don't normally fail. I don't usually biff.

We got, and it's a special time, because later on, we're going to, Max Allison from Hasu Mountain is going to join us. What's he got, two first names? Max Allison. I know, I know, I know. I'd already considered that.
Starting point is 00:02:50 Or is he Al's son? I think that's what it is. I think the last name is A-L apostrophe S, and then next word, capital S-O-N. Yeah. Well, you don't capitalize S because it's not a proper... Maxwell is Al'sN. Yeah. Well, you don't capitalize S because it's not a proper book. Maxwell. His son.
Starting point is 00:03:07 Maxwell. It is funny. It is funny how people get their names, isn't it? Names are funny. It is funny how people get their names. Do you know what
Starting point is 00:03:15 my last name means? B. It's just the letter B, right? B. It's a bug. It's a bug. They make honey. I learned a lot.

Starting point is 00:05:00 They've released Sarah Laughs. Have they released... New Age Hillbillies label? That they released New Age Hillbillies? That sounds like New Age Hillbillies related to it, I think. Oh, really? I believe so. Look it up on Discogs. Cover up our Harris Rosenblum. Can you please hand it to me?
Starting point is 00:05:16 Layout by Miles Engel Hallbrecher. Look at me, Joe. Just look my hands out. I'll show you in a second. I like the cover because it's like a 3D sculpture of maybe someone that lives in hobbiton where uh frodo lives i think it's called hobo oh okay from lord it looks like a hobbit let me see this thing well it's dark as hell a proud foot proud feet what is that thing it's a hobbit no this thing on the
Starting point is 00:05:43 cover yeah it's a hobbit that's a hobbit yes it's a hobbit's head it's a hobbit no this thing on the cover yeah it's a hobbit that's a hobbit yes it's a hobbit's head it's a hobbit or it looks like a hobbit huh you said it looks like a hobbit it looks and you're saying what is it yeah what is it exactly it looks like a hobbit i don't know it's a sculpture of a hobbit sounds like you're coming here with absolutely no dedication jr tolkien no you don't know what you're talking about. Sarah Lest Records. This came out in 2021. No clue who runs the label, by the way.
Starting point is 00:06:12 Oh, you still haven't figured that out? There's a track on here called Swangin' if you want to play it. Oh, I might play that one. It's called Swangin'. There is a New Age Hillbilly tape on this label. They're also Human Host. Dwayo. Superflower. Yes, Selma.
Starting point is 00:06:32 Is this all Baltimore stuff that you're saying? I think so. I recognize the Baltimore accent now. Yeah. Natty Bo. Delaware Dan. Delaware Dan. Hell yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:43 All right. Well, then, so is the artist Dirty... No, they flipped it. The artist... Artist. Yeah, what was that? Artist. Why'd you say it like that? Is...
Starting point is 00:06:53 Somalian drip. Somalian drip. Somalian drip. Got it. Got it. All right, Jamie, what do you got? You gotta pronounce both P's. All right.
Starting point is 00:07:00 You gotta kind of... They gotta... You gotta hit them. They got this one out of the mailbag. Out the mailbag. Thank you so much for of the mailbag. Out the mailbag. Thank you so much for the people who send stuff
Starting point is 00:07:08 to the mailbag. Yeah, and this is a label I was not familiar with. It's a scene I'm not familiar with. It's kind of the, like,
Starting point is 00:07:14 drum and bass jungle breakbeat. It's real fast, real energetic. What's in there? What is it? This label is called Doom of Dome
Starting point is 00:07:24 or something like that. Dome of Doom. Dome of Doom. It's where I get my haircut. Yeah. It's a split. I'm going to play the A side. This artist is Daedalus.
Starting point is 00:07:33 I saw you send that in the text, and I was like, there's a Daedalus tape? This is the producer Daedalus? I don't know. I'm not familiar. Is this someone you know, Joe? I'm not familiar with the name either. Daedalus is famous. I think it's the name of a Greek god or something like that.
Starting point is 00:07:46 Yeah. Do we have the same person? I don't know. I would hate to think that Joe B. is going to listen to this thinking it's a famous person. This is a long one, Jamie. There's a lot of tape on here. I think it's
Starting point is 00:08:03 45 minutes on each side. Yeah. C-90, they call it. lot of tape on here oh yeah i think it's i think it's uh like 45 minutes on each side yeah that's i was gonna say that too c90 they call the kids call it this is nice don't where you got this in the mailbag you said yeah just listen to it today my three-year-old was was dancing the artwork looks like for like a flyer for like a 90s rave and the tape looks like it's got like full color print on there too or is that a sticker on the tape itself? Oh, on the tape. It's a sticker.
Starting point is 00:08:29 So this is your classic sticker. It's looking beautiful, though. Yeah. But I don't want this to be not the famous person, and then Joe B. hears it and is in kind of like a zone to hear a famous person make music, and then it's not a famous person. Is it Alfred Weisberg Roberts, Joe? You know what?
Starting point is 00:08:43 I'm not sure. That's what we need to figure out. He's got a lot of releases. Daedalus is like, yeah, I mean, I've never really listened to Daedalus' music before. Daedalus has like a pedal or something out or like a module? Is that this? I don't want to listen to this person.
Starting point is 00:08:58 I don't want to keep guessing. It probably is because I think I'm stupid. There's a lot of releases and been around the block. I'm just not familiar with this scene, so's a blind it's a musical blind spot well then we need it right now why like electronic music yeah this is jungly this is is there is this music made with electric yes you're telling me and what's the label who put it out dome of doom i tried to make a jungle track a couple weeks ago yeah yeah All I was able to do was just loop the jungle break. I got that.
Starting point is 00:09:28 Did you get hurt? Did you at least? No, I got it. Okay, well, I think that's a good start. But I didn't know what to do next. I would say from there, take a break, make a sandwich, maybe watch a few episodes of, like, 30 Rock or something. I just did.
Starting point is 00:09:40 Yeah. That's jungle. You know what? I was doing it wrong. This is jungle? Do it one more time. Yeah, that's jungle. You know what? I was doing it wrong. This is jungle? Yeah. Do it one more time. Yeah, that's jungle. Monkeys, birds, insects, water on the leaf.
Starting point is 00:09:52 Water. Yeah. Okay. This is what it was in my day. Oh, that's why you didn't recognize him. Yeah. I love how this... Turn the jungle down, please.
Starting point is 00:10:01 I love how the logo for this label is actually like a little dome. It makes me wonder what's going on in there. Thunderdome. How many enter, how many leave? Yeah, and this label's got a lot of releases, cassettes and vinyl. I don't know any of the artists. Probably a lot of more famous people that you don't know. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:10:18 I'm dying to know this person's name. Will Smith. Oh, wait, Jamie, you know what? Go to domeofdooms.org. domeofdooms.org slash product slash where slash the slash day slash takes slash the number two. I'll just send you the link. Hold on. I'm on their band camp right now.
Starting point is 00:10:36 Go to the website, and you can read this whole thing. What, about me? About Joe B. and what he thinks about it. Yeah, they got it. Somehow they put it all on their website. But apparently Jungle's having a resurgence. It's seemingly been doing so ever since
Starting point is 00:10:49 gaining even modest popularity outside the pirate radio waves. So I don't know if this person is famous though. They're selling this tape. It's sold out now. They were selling it for $20 and it's sold out. They're raking it in. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:05 What do you got, Mike? Maybe they are famous, Joe. You never heard of Daedalus? No. Okay, snake eggs. You guys want to eat some snake eggs? Snake eggs. I feel like you played that artist
Starting point is 00:11:17 on one of the ones with me and Ian where we had a theme of reptiles and then we had to like... Really? I don't know. This was another one this literally came well it came in the mail the other day i opened up the envelope this morning and i only listened to like a little bit of it but i was kind of digging it and i to be honest i just like the name snake eggs yeah alfred weisenberg roberts he is famous famous okay so
Starting point is 00:11:40 this person is famous yeah so i feel like an idiot playing Snake Eggs because this is like some nobody now I'm playing. Never will be anybody. Never will be. So we got, okay. Well, I'll try. I don't know anything about Snake Eggs. I know the label's called Stress Carrier.
Starting point is 00:11:57 And that's all that I have. The art is very simple. I feel like I know what this is going to sound like. You want to take a guess before we play it? I feel like it's going to sound like... But maybe not. You're dead wrong. You couldn't be more wrong.
Starting point is 00:12:12 How about... No, nothing like that. There might be a little bit of singing on it, Jamie. I don't know. Let's listen. That's it. That was it right there. Yeah, but I don't know anything about the artists.
Starting point is 00:12:33 Oh, you know what? I do know something about them. They're from Scranton, Pennsylvania. Oh, nice. That's what. Now it's all coming back to me. I wanted to play Snake Eggs because I thought. The Electric City.
Starting point is 00:12:44 They're from Scranton, Pennsylvania. Maybe they know. But the little cars go in the compact spot, right? That's what I was thinking. See, Jamie played a famous person so I thought maybe Snake Eggs knows Jim or maybe Snake Eggs knows Dwight. Or Pam.
Starting point is 00:12:59 Maybe Snake Eggs knows Pam. Or Roy. Daryl. What about Daryl think about what if snake eggs knows uh marge what i can't remember peg uh but but think about that what if the official like nbc peacock twitter account retweets this episode because snake eggs knows Snake Eggs knows BJ Novak's character or Snake Eggs knows Creed Creed his name is really Creed
Starting point is 00:13:32 there's a lot of cool things about him what if Snake Eggs when he holds up a picture of him in the 60s like the character but it's him oh is it really and then the one episode when they're doing karaoke and he's singing a song, he's singing his music. Okay. So I like that. Is that meta?
Starting point is 00:13:50 Meta. I have no clue. I don't know what meta is. Snake eggs. Whoa! What's that? Snake eggs? Snake eggs, yeah. What if snake eggs knows Kevin? What if Kevin, when he spills the chili, what if there's snake eggs in it? What about Oscar? Oh my god. Could you imagine if snake what if kevin when he spills the chili what about snake eggs in it what about oscar oh my god could you imagine a snake that would be good what about toby aaron aaron
Starting point is 00:14:13 stop stop oh what about what about bob vance it's refrigeration refrigeration i'm still thinking about oscar i know i'm still thinking about Oscar. I know. I'm still thinking about if Snake X knew Oscar. That would be crazy. When he threw the cat in the ceiling. Oh, that's one of my favorite cold opens. Is that a cold open? Alright, let's play these three. Okay.

I've got so many tabs on my computer. And I brought up a story when I played some jungle stuff at work, and they told me to turn it off.
Starting point is 00:27:43 Which was rightfully so. It's not good working material. No. Unless you're like on cocaine and you're like, I don't know, maybe like working at the Amazon. I would say unless you're doing something really fast. Unless you work at the cocaine factory, you don't want to listen to that at work. Yeah. No, because actually the cocaine factory might get a little extra.
Starting point is 00:28:03 You got a little wrong. It's really slow work, actually, because you've got to weigh it all out It's got to be perfect It's the break room Because you can't smuggle anything home It's very exacting work, actually Now imagine the office And everybody's naked
Starting point is 00:28:18 Oscar's showing up naked Kevin naked spilling chili Imagine Kevin naked spilling chili Pete Imagine Kevin naked spilling chili. Kelly. Pete. Pete. That's new stuff. I'll take plop.

I didn't do a lot of research. Do you want to mention the yellow leader tape, Joe? Do you want to mention the yellow leader tape? You? Do you want to mention the yellow leader tape?

Starting point is 00:33:39 of stuff like this and one of the things i've been learning a lot about is if anybody has like an instrument that you don't know about like like like tell me when jack wright plays the saxophone on his knee that's extended technique exactly yeah or you just say like name an instrument um guitar he can't do it flugelhorn flugelhorn oh yeah flugelhorn like i like when people do like um like i like seeing like an extended technique like you You go to a small club and you see somebody do an extended technique Yeah, I get it Yeah, I get it

You're not a fan of the... It'd be a good Scrabble word. The equestrian variety? No, I'm not really into... I'm scared of horses.
Starting point is 00:36:33 Oh, yeah, yeah. I believe it's the fine coating of a horse. If a coat has like a... A good Roan? A good... It's like... I think the Roan is like the... Well, it's what it's like having a Roany.
Starting point is 00:36:45 Wait, isn't that like a treat? What's a Roany? That's something you eat, right? At the end of the Vanilla Ice tape, there's that bonus track. Do you remember that? No. What it's like having a Roany.
Starting point is 00:36:58 Jamie, look that up. I kind of remember that now. Google what it's like having... Ninja Day was on Ninja... He was in Ninja Turtles, right? Strawberry Roan. After saving with customized car insurance from Liberty Mutual. I kind of remember that now. Google what it's like. Ninja Day was on Ninja Turtles, right? Strawberry Road. After saving with customized car insurance from Liberty Mutual. Sorry, we had a commercial.
Starting point is 00:37:11 Remember when we had advertisers and stuff? Oh, no, stop. Play this louder. I do remember this, actually. My parents took this tape away from me. What? I have a good tape takeaway story, but I'll tell it later. All fair.
Starting point is 00:37:29 Hmm. But like a strawberry roan is like a horse that's pink. No, you keep that playing the whole time. Actually, I'm going to drop it now. It was body count. That's what they wouldn't let you have? They took it away from me. They took it away from you?
Starting point is 00:37:42 But strawberry roan is the name of the tape, not the name of the artist. I forgot for a minute. I'm sick. The name of the artist is Cole, Pulis, and... Oh, it's not Strawberry Rhone? With Hilary James and Zach Warpinski. The name of the tape is...
Starting point is 00:38:04 Strawberry Rhone. The name of the tape is strawberry run the name the tape is strawberry road it's on oral can it's ambient music this is good though I rather play this yeah we've played stuff on oral Canyon before they're like a New Age label they put They make new age music.

Yeah. That's a big, somebody's having a special birthday. It's a Hasu Mountain birthday. Yeah. That's a big deal.
Starting point is 00:52:47 How many years? Let everyone guess. Jamie, you go first. 14. Joe Big. 8. Max, what do you think? I want to say it's 69 years, baby.
Starting point is 00:53:01 Oh, my God. You're correct. I can't believe you went there. No, but to be fucking... We don't really do that kind of humor anymore. Considering the fact that we no longer do this kind of humor, it's been 10 years since the Hasu Mountain label had begun. How are you celebrating?
Starting point is 00:53:19 I saw something. You guys are doing some weird-ass merch, just hats that say, like, Zone on it or something like that. I thought it was just expensive. You guys like this stuff. So one thing about the merch that I want to say is that I believe I remember hearing in some previous Tabzat thing that you were like, These guys must be raking it in. They got all this merch. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:40 Yeah, I stand by that. But the merch is made to order. So it's like we don't pay anything up front. It's all made by this company. And they only make them when... That's how they do it these days. I love how you... So what are you saying?
Starting point is 00:53:58 You're not selling any of this stuff? Like, what are you trying to say? That we were wrong? No, no, no. What are you trying to say? Hold on, hold on. 10 years? how many different kind of shirts do you have how many different merches do you have okay so that's definitely my point so the the merch 10 years 10 years the merch stuff is like is like very like diversified there's like dresses shirts tank tops hats so we're not we don't have like a box of these at our home they're all stuff that like people order and then it comes to them i learned

Starting point is 00:59:25 Oh, this is exclusive too. Alright. So, in addition to all this reissue and all this merch, we have some other new albums coming out that are
Starting point is 00:59:40 kind of like, I would say like different scales. Like in the same way that we put out those four pro-lapse tapes. I cannot tell you, it's confidential. Those four pro-lapse tapes last year. Those were great, by the way. Thank you so much. We're doing a three cassette box set of Mothcock.
Starting point is 01:00:01 Oh, interesting. And each tape is about an hour each tape is over an hour long so the whole so the whole batch or the whole like box set is like something like three and a half hours and be honest be honest don't talk over me be. How much of it is just they just fall asleep, take a nap? None of it. How much is just them big doons snoring for a nap? It's all killer, no filler. It's all new Mothcog music, too.
Starting point is 01:00:38 So it's basically their new album that is three and a half hours long. Very cool. All of the art is by pat so it has the that mothcock visual art flavor to his collages it looks beautiful we we uh should have those in hand soon we haven't announced it yet but it's gonna be honestly like it's like a big project for us this year it's gonna to be a big thing so i'm excited for that for sure that's huge um how many copies will you send me we'll send you uh maybe three three we'll send you 4.20 copies you're really good with the numbers we should have you on all the time with these numbers yeah yeah max yes what uh what hasu mountain release has scared you the most too scary
Starting point is 01:01:32 oh that's a great question thank you what is scary real scary what did you what did you kind of have to pass off to doug and just say will you finish listening to the rest of this? I'm too scared. There are some scary ones. One of the ones that I think about that's really amazingly dark and scary is that Radiator Grey's tape that we put out.
Starting point is 01:01:56 Josh Levi, his music is dark and amazingly just like, it sounds like you're in some freaky cavern and it's just like, you know, it's harsh, it sounds like you're in some freaky cavern, and it's just like, you know, it's harsh, it's freaky. Thank you. so Thank you. Thank you. what's the most non-scary one what's the best one you look at and you're like and you definitely know you're not it's like your security blanket it's the opposite of scary it's makes you feel right i would say like the dustin wong tape we put out is a very wholesome beautiful unscary like tape that is just like full of like bubbles
Starting point is 01:06:20 and like beautiful you know scenic vistas i'm actually scared of bubbles so yeah so that's kind of fucked up that you would yeah i can't believe i'm scared of bubbles the thing and the monkey yeah it's a great album title fluid world building 101 with shaman bamboo oh i didn't take that class where did you and d meet? Shut the fuck up. No. You're not allowed to do this. Why did you say it like that? So, how did you guys meet?
Starting point is 01:06:53 Where are you best friends and how did it happen? I met Doug at a keg in college. Surprise! Surprise! Surprise! Surprise! Max, what labels are you into, man? What tape labels do you listen to? What do you check out?
Starting point is 01:07:20 All kinds of stuff. Like what? Obviously, like Howard. Howard Stern? Yeah, Howard Stern's tape label um i love uh i love like in yegi and yegi tapes they do they do lps too i never uh uh knew how you said that how do you say it i don't i don't even know if i'm saying but i think it's in yegi and yegi andi. I think you got it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You got it. I love...
Starting point is 01:07:48 Let me think. Who are the weirdos still buying CDs? Wait, what is... I don't know. What is that audio from? That's from an episode of Saturday Night Live. SNL, they call it. That's so specific.
Starting point is 01:08:03 I love that. I tagged that one when i heard it uh you know it's hard for me to think of like like labels that are like tape tape i love so hell sounds tape tape tape tape issues killing i love uh uh husky pants rallies label does a bunch of tapes that I love. I love Full Spectrum and obviously Astral Spirits.
Starting point is 01:08:34 What kind of Chicago shit's going on that I don't know about? What kind of tape-specific Chicago located stuff that's going on that I know about, but Jamie and Joe don't know about it, so let them know. Tape-specific Chicago shit. Yeah, name one tape label.
Starting point is 01:08:50 That's new and hot. New and hot. It's not even hot yet. It's just warm, but it's waiting, baby. And how did you and Doug meet? I mean, okay, so your question kind of, like, like a truth to it, which is that I don't necessarily know if there's like new hot labels making tapes in Chicago.
Starting point is 01:09:14 You know, like obviously like Lil' Earn has like been grinding along probably just as long, if not longer than us. I'm trying to think of other like new new labels that make tapes and i got nothing a lot of my buds are making just like their own self-release kind of tape type situations you know like my friend jake acosta just made a tape for his group famous laughs um you know I think that like the the tape label scene is also like people understand they can just release their own stuff and not call it a label and it's just like it exists as like a physical item that you know stands alone so to speak I I think. Do you even think, like, compared to when you started the label 10 years ago, the need for even people to have a label to help them out,
Starting point is 01:10:12 do you think it's, like, diminished in a way? Do you think it's changed? Yeah, I would definitely say so. And I would say that if people are in the mindset of needing a physical edition of something then they're not they're not necessarily scared about doing it themselves wait so do you just hit one button and it plays a little stupid sound like soundboard style? I have yeah, I have I just saw you. I saw you hit F or something Can you see my board? I just I just changed the camera to you. No, I don't want him to know what F is
Starting point is 01:10:58 No, I well F is one that I hold Do six and then Do six and then nine. Six and then nine? Go to Joe. To me. No, I have just one of those things that you use to open up your car, and it has one button, and it plays a random sound, so I don't know which one I'm going to get.
Starting point is 01:11:21 So I hit it. Wait, are you talking about like an alarm beeper? They call it a fob. beeper they call it a fob a fob yeah i have a sound i thought you were talking about like a like a car window jack to open your car yeah okay all right okay what we're talking about we're talking about uh whether yeah i think that the decentralization of and the more wider availability of making your own tapes, ordering 100 tapes from NAC or whatever, people know that they can do that. They don't need someone's permission or someone's, you know, like sponsorship to do so anymore. Or they never did. Yeah, they never did.
Starting point is 01:12:11 But yeah. Yeah. So like that doesn't make any sense. So yeah, but it was nice. I guess you don't really have an answer is what you're saying. I'm just saying that. Okay. Also, I would say this goes.
Starting point is 01:12:24 Oh my God. that okay also i would say this goes oh my god this this goes hand in hand with like people feeling more like uh more capable of dropping a digital album on bandcamp that has no label associated with it like that's how i release a lot of mux music it's just on the mux bandcamp digital only because i've just been making releasing so much stuff like like i was trying to think about it recently it's like i could make a tape box set of all the digital only mux albums i've made in the last two years but it would be like nine or ten tapes so it's like is that the way you see hasu going as a label that kind of like like you talked about the prolapse tapes and then you talked about like the smothcock thing and then you bring up the idea of the mucks doing all these releases
Starting point is 01:13:16 as digital and then putting it together as a box set so i do you see that as like a way that like you'd move further to just doing like i don't want to say novelty releases or anything like that, but it would be more of a bigger scale releases. Yeah. Bigger scale, more of a special, it's a treat. You go home and there's a treat there.
Starting point is 01:13:35 There's not, I actually don't think that that's our, our Avenue because like when, when I was, when I was saying that it would take eight to ten tapes to release all this music that's basically me saying that i don't want to do it like that like i don't want that you know what i mean oh you don't want that oh it's a bad thing no yeah it's a bad thing i want someone to buy 10 tapes are you sure buying buying 10 mux tapes in a big, like what would they even look like?
Starting point is 01:14:05 It would be like a, like a, like a trapper keeper full of tapes or something like that. Like, so no. Oh, so that, that's also a bad thing.
Starting point is 01:14:15 You don't like trapper keepers. Okay. So what I want to say is that our label house, you will always continue to release music on physical additions. And, and we haven't been doing LPs lately. It's basically impossible. So we're going to do tapes and CDs for everything,
Starting point is 01:14:37 like, you know, for the, for the foreseeable future. And, and we want to give our artists like, you know, Pozo did the dub we we want to give our artists something of the like is a physical edition that they can hold in their hands that fans can hold in their hands and it's going to be a tape and a cd like that that's just the standard
Starting point is 01:15:01 for us now so so we we will not move to this idea of doing these big box set kind of things those will those will just be special gems within the landscape you know what i mean very cool awesome well max thanks for taking a moment to talk to us big ups for running the label for so long yeah cheers oh cheers. Also, before you go, weren't you, didn't you, were you like a translator for Merzbow when he was in the States one time? Yeah, I was.
Starting point is 01:15:34 Yeah. Could you get him to unblock me on Twitter? Well, Mike, you have to stop making fun of him. Well, it's funny. Okay, so. I think it'd really be worth it for him if he unblocked me. I think he'd kick out of it.
Starting point is 01:15:46 I'll tell you this tale. Red Bull reached out through my friend Jonathan, dear homie of mine, who was working with them on this event. The event was a big, big blowout, like all night long concert in this big warehouse. And like fire tools and towel sounds and a lot of our buds were playing on the bill oh no all kinds of buds and just like coincidentally jonathan hit me up and was like oh yeah i know you speak japanese to do that so so i i basically like was
Starting point is 01:16:29 going to be there anyways because our artists are performing there but mertzbau and steven amelli were the headliners and so i got there like early like on the production schedule. I like met him. And the funny part is that he speaks like great English. He like doesn't, he like doesn't need a translator like at all. Like he was just like, yes, I would like some coffee. I was like,
Starting point is 01:16:57 I was like, tight. I'll get you some coffee. Like sick, man. You had this, break it down. There's only Red Bull there.
Starting point is 01:17:05 I was like, yeah. You had this, break it down, that there's only Red Bull there. I was like, yeah, I was like, yeah, I was like, yeah, I was like, yeah,
Starting point is 01:17:08 I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

Starting point is 01:21:28 Let me finish my tale here, please. So, okay, so we made this account. People started to notice it. It probably got like a thousand followers really fast. And we didn't tweet anything from it. It was just like the at masami akita account and like i think we like retweeted welcome we were treated one tweet from like a franz kafka like bot or something and that was the only tweet on there so it was just like a blank account
Starting point is 01:22:01 people thought that was him followed him and then like it got suspended because it's like you know you don't want to impersonate people or but we weren't even doing that we weren't like posting like funny tweets at like as his persona or whatever like it was just like it was something that we had and And then he officially joined Twitter, got this account banned. I'm looking at it now. It's not around anymore. So there are other ones.
