Did you think while you're up there playing, because what genre of music is this? Yeah, what would you call? It's like rock, but- It's a rock band, right?
Starting point is 00:03:55 But not like hard rock. It's mid-2000s radio-friendly pop rock music. Yeah. Well, did you ever have the feeling when you were up there with your keyboard, like, I can frigging throw some settings on this? did a little bit put it through an an effects pedal yeah i did some a little bit more abrasive things than i used to do back then i i did a little stinky stuff oh all right there but i'm not too much you know i try not to go too crazy yeah yeah but what do you play again a whirlitzer i thoughtitzer? I thought you were going to say the drums Kurzweil

Starting point is 00:04:43 We played for like an hour and a half An hour and a half an hour and a half yeah was there an encore yeah we had a two-song encore yeah well well how long between ending the set walking off stage till you came back oh you know it's funny wait wait what's the question how long until that's over thank you everybody we're fucking omni so you thank you fucking and then they walk off okay and then the crowd's like oh you will say you what is the how long did that happen before they came back on and played two more songs probably one minute because we went to the green like i said there was a crowd but it wasn't like there there wasn't like a huge
Starting point is 00:05:21 like it wasn't a sold-out show but it was enough people. People were screaming and yelling and stuff. And then we were in the green room. And then we heard it start to go down. And then we're like, we got to go back out. Yeah, now it's time. I got to ask you about the green room, Jamie. Yeah, me too. I was just about to ask about the green room.
Starting point is 00:05:36 Is it green? Is it green? You know what they say about car accidents that you never remember the color of the car? It's always close to your house. I don't remember the color. Oh, yeah, it always close to your house. I don't remember the color. Yeah, it's close to your house, too. That's a good statistic. So you live near the green room?

Starting point is 00:07:51 The PA cut out during your set, but it was a wonderful set. It was rigged. Someone time-rigged the PA so it would go off as soon as the downbeat came in.

Starting point is 00:09:22 Kicking it old school. What is this? The Stranger Things font on the shelf? I i think it might be you can't just use that this looks tight though i do like the blue paper with the blue uh naroko case and i wish the tape was blue what is there's a scary face i was waiting for you to see it so you get scared i love this scary face where's the scary scary face? I didn't see it. You didn't see it? No. You own the tape? I own it. It's very hard to see because the cover. Oh.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Ooh. Very dark. Boo, boo, boo. But you see some eyes and some sharp teeth coming out. It's very scary. Very scary. And what is this, a tour tape? I'm not quite sure, but it's so hot right now that it's not even on the band camp yet,
Starting point is 00:10:03 and it's not on Discox. I bet you're losing your mind. Yeah. The night he came home. Have you texted him about it yet? No. Or sent an email? No, I'll probably put it on Discogs in the coming weeks, if it's not on there.
Starting point is 00:10:13 I figure you would have texted Discogs by now. Texted Discogs. Dear Discogs, Jamie again. Am I being detained? You've probably been wondering where I've been. Well, I doubt they've been wondering, because he's constantly there. Yeah, he is. It's disgusting, and everyone hates it another message from me another message from old jamie orlando here hot off an omni-soul reunion show noticed you haven't updated i noticed you have not updated the omni soul page to include our recent reunion show okay here we go
Starting point is 00:10:47 okay cool bad trips that would be a pretty good website it's like discogs but shows what do you mean so you'd search uh bad religion and it listed every show they've ever played oh that's gotta exist right yeah yeah does that exist i think that's setlist.fm setlist.fm that's right that soundsfm That sounds fake Let me look that up Do I have to look that up on your wifi here? Yeah setlist.fm The setlist wiki
Starting point is 00:11:12 You can look up Mr. Bungle They got all the Mr. Bungle setlists That sounds like you've been doing that a lot It seems like you already knew that I think you just went to a A bookmark yeah actually the tab's already open what do you guys want to 1995 that was the golden year for bungle at the fillmore setlist.com yeah setlist.fm slash mr bungle is his home love on the event horizon
Starting point is 00:11:38 cold war by a siege chemical marriage violenza. Okay, Joe B. So he's playing this Bad Trips tape. Yeah, right. Are they still on tour right now, by the way? I'm not sure.
Starting point is 00:11:50 Or was it kind of like a short little... At this point, it was 13 days ago, so... We're just fucking around and doing a little fuck walk up the East Coast.
Starting point is 00:12:00 Name me, Matt's got all fucking bloody synthesizers. We're going to take a little fuck walk up the East Coast. Wait, Me and me mates got our fucking bloody synthesizers. We're going to take a little fuck walk up the Haste. No, their set was tight, though.
Starting point is 00:12:13 You know what's funny about their set is like, no, there's a drummer, a guitar player. Hold on, sorry. And a bass player. You know what's funny about their set? What? There's a what? Guitar player, a drum player, and a bass player. Oh, so they're a rock band.
Starting point is 00:12:24 But it was not rock music. Jamie plays drums, right? It wasn't. You play drums, right? I do play drums. I know you play every instrument, Jamie. You're saying it was not rocking? It wasn't rock. Goodbye. Was it skronk? No, it wasn't even skronking. It was more like... Ska. No, it wasn't ska.
Starting point is 00:12:41 Were they doing that a bunch? No, it was more like just... Oh, their circles? Yeah, it was kind of like that. It was kind of like this, too. Oh, that was good. All right, so if you're playing that Bad Trips tape, Joby, I see you're holding a tape,
Starting point is 00:13:10 and one of the people in that band was at the show. I know, that's why I'm playing it. It's called a Segway. Now, this is a Segway. Joby's not like, I got a Segway for something I'm going to play in two episodes. Three years from now. It's a time capsule.
Starting point is 00:13:24 That's a time capsule, Jamie. Look at all that. I'm going to play this Indigo Ranch. Very cool. Love or perish. Indigo Ranch is a duo of Emily Eichelberger and John Pyle. John Pyle was at the show.
Starting point is 00:13:40 Delaware alumni. If you go back in the archives, you'll hear some Tabs Out episodes. He's been on the show. Friend of the show. Big friend of the show. Yeah. Now, that's another... Is that a rock band?
Starting point is 00:13:51 I think they might be a rock band. Guitar, vocals, drum machine, bass, drum machine. They're outsourcing their drums to a friggin' Boston Dynamics, I guess. Got one of those fuckin' dog robots. You try forming a band in Biden's America. You find me a drummer. What is the Indigo Ranch? What is the...
Starting point is 00:14:10 Well, probably gross. Without looking that up, is that like something... You put it on private mode, Jamie. I'm assuming it's like something where like... I bet it's... A cult lived there or something. Maybe it's sketchy. I'm asking.
Starting point is 00:14:23 It's something... Look that up. What is an Indigo... Indigo Ranch typically refers to a property or community with a name that evokes a sense of tranquility and connection to nature. Oh, that's cute. That's not what I thought it was going to be. Search indigo ranch World War II.
Starting point is 00:14:33 Or search like indigo ranch dangerous masturbation. No, no. Dangerous masturbation. No, all jokes aside. I guess this is self-released. that correct mike it looks like it or like um because john pile has like a couple of labels yeah he's got so many labels these days but this doesn't have any um there's no markings no markings no i don't see any ruins i failed my history check give me a um give me an arcana roll all right we need to
Starting point is 00:15:04 have a sound clip of dice rolling before we do that. I would rather die than do that. I would rather die than do that. So this is from... Jamie doesn't like dice. It's gambling, and he doesn't gamble. This tape is from like a few years ago, right?
Starting point is 00:15:16 Oh, well, I'm not sure. I think you're right about that. I thought it was brand new, because I didn't have it. No, I didn't have it either. All this says is that one of the songs, songs written by Emily Eichelberger, recorded, mixed, and mastered by John Pyle. One of the songs, there's an asterisk, Good Bye Horses, written by William Garvey, April
Starting point is 00:15:35 2021, Philadelphia. Okay. I got no information to add to that. I think you stole my pinky. That's all I got. They were really good live, though. I liked it. Very Discogs. Very dreamy.
Starting point is 00:15:47 They had the visuals going. If you're in Philadelphia. I'm not a visual guy. Minimal. It was cold. It was moody. It was kind of like being on an indigo ranch in some ways. Oh, indigo ranch.
Starting point is 00:15:59 So what is this? A self-title tape, you said? Or no. Love or Perish. It was so long ago when you said that. Yeah. I mean, you don't really listen to me. Wellish. It was so long ago when you said that. Yeah. You don't really listen to me. Well, now I need to find one.
Starting point is 00:16:07 No one listens to me. So there's bad... Jamie never listens to me. I'm always doing a lot of things at once. You know what? I think I can... You're right. Everyone does lots of things.
Starting point is 00:16:17 I think I can go in with two of these that fits this whole... The vibe, to use the parlance of the times. So there's Bad Trips. Yeah. Indigo Ranch. Indigo Ranch. Two words. Yellow Swans.

Starting point is 00:42:21 Hi Alright, oh, I wanted to play that the castees, Jamie's mom. Hi. Alright, oh, I wanted to play that Yellow Swans YouTube thing. Actually, I think Jamie's mom's accepting the award. Jamie Orlando couldn't be here tonight, accepting the award on his behalf. Jamie's mom. What's that sound? Hold on, I gotta find where they are
Starting point is 00:42:43 in this video. Who? Yellow Swans. I thought I had it queued up to their conversation. Let's just start from the on, I've got to find where they are in this video. Who? Oh, Yellow Swans. I thought I had it queued up to their conversation. Let's just start from the beginning. I haven't seen it in a while. Put it in there. I don't even know if this is the part.
Starting point is 00:42:55 Maybe I'll do this later. Do it later. I'll do it later. This is a segue. I admitted this on the break, but I had never heard Yellow Swans before. That was my first. I had heard of them. I thought you were ahead. But I never heard them, and that was not what i expected them to sound like is that what they
Starting point is 00:43:07 all their stuff sounds like all their stuff sounds exactly like that you can't tell it at all i have a sample for that after a while they all start to sound the same yeah i'm sure no one would be upset at all if we just said that through the immense yellow swans catalog it all sounds exactly this like that yeah no that's cool i like when uh people go through the archives they hone their craft like acdc you don't want them to sound different no no no this is just like acdc yeah have you ever seen that little i'm not going to talk about it in length but that that little clip of rick rubin talking about working with acdc no how it took them like they would just sit around smoke cigarettes and talk for like an hour and then they kept he'd be like let's go and then they'd be like oh one more minute mate studio time's
Starting point is 00:43:53 expensive and then they would just do it okay like perfect they're a great band yeah hold on let me see if this is the yellow swan singer here you ready your system is like a gigantic systemic network that that informs itself constantly and every sound that we put in there um not only do you have that sound but you have everything i want to say right now in the background the other guy in the band visibly frustrated okay that is reacting to that sound i mean you pretentious douche what are you talking oh i've seen this yeah right but it doesn't necessarily have to that sound. You pretentious douche. What are you talking about? Oh, I've seen this, yeah. Right, but it doesn't necessarily have to. That's the thing.
Starting point is 00:44:29 There's nuance control, but I don't think it ever stops being a feedback loop on some level. No, it does. It does. There's total control. No, because I would say that even at a minimum, energetically,
Starting point is 00:44:43 there is this constant chain of events that leads to a new creation of sound. Not necessarily. It doesn't have to be. No, but there is. Absolutely there is. Not at all. Absolutely there is.
Starting point is 00:44:55 Okay, that's the best conversation two noise people have ever had. And they're in the same band. Yeah, and there's... The one dude's like, no, I can do this again. And I feel like... Total control. It's not a feedback loop. It's just same band. Yeah. And there's the one dude's like, no, I can do this again. And I feel like total control.
Starting point is 00:45:05 It's not a feedback loop. It's just constant a stream. Yeah. If you're going to be a noise duo, that is the energy you need to bring. Yeah. Just constant. You're at each other. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:15 Disagreeing about everything. I love it. People who do noise. That's what that's from. If anyone wants to look it up. All right. Next block. Who wants to go?
Starting point is 00:45:23 I'll go. I'm going to play this tape just straight out the mailbag. Know nothing about it. You're doing another one of those, right? Yeah. That always scares the shit out of me when you grab these mailbags
Starting point is 00:45:33 because a lot, I would say like 60% of the stuff that comes in. Yeah, well, this is from anal torture. It's not really, is it? No, no. This is a segue from Jamie. I don't know if he talked about this on air or not. This band No no This is a This is a segue from Jamie I don't know if he talked about this on air or not
Starting point is 00:45:46 This band The group is called Lighter And the tape's called Massage Oh On Crash Cymbals Look at this crispy chicken Okay Nice
Starting point is 00:45:57 Oh it's so hot Hot off the presses Hot off the presses Lighter is Camilla Paget Coles Oh yeah yeah Maya Ibar You know who this is? Yeah because
Starting point is 00:46:08 And Borsha Al-Sandi I know that name from Galta From Galta My label Oh sorry Not my label The label that you I'm a fanboy of
Starting point is 00:46:15 The label you can't shut the hell up Whose label is it Jamie? To say David Lackner Jesus Christ If I would have known that I wouldn't have played this So are these
Starting point is 00:46:23 Is this a Jazz head here? I don't know what this So are these Is this a Jazz heads here I don't know what's going on I think Camilla plays Like singing bowls and stuff At least on the record That I have Okay
Starting point is 00:46:31 Interesting And this is You said it's a trio Trio Three people Three people And that's all I got That's all I know
Starting point is 00:46:42 Yeah because you literally Just took like You opened it up Well you know With crash cymbals. Crash cymbals always hits. Get out of here. It always hits.
Starting point is 00:46:48 I'm only playing it to get listens. I don't know why Jamie's not doing the crash cymbals bit that we always do. Oh, yeah. I have too many soundboards now. It's hard for me to find things. Yep. It's overwhelming. I got my Jordan Peterson soundboard.
Starting point is 00:46:59 Ooh, it's good. Let me ask you, Jordan Peterson. How did you know they were called lighter in the table's massage? Just because lighter's to the left, and that's how I read left to right. But you're guessing? It's not a guess. Oh, no, it says lighter is. It's not a guess.
Starting point is 00:47:11 Yeah, it's a calculated assumption. No, I want to point out that on the cover, it just says lighter massage, and I would maybe even think maybe the band is called lighter massage. It's not. It's not. No, because lighter's at the top, and massage's in a different font, and it's smaller. Why would you put the band is called lighter massage no it's not it's not lighters at the top and massages in a different font and it's smaller if why would you put the band name smaller the band name you want big up front the guitar player you know i mean okay all right you're right you don't know anything
Starting point is 00:47:34 about rock i don't well also the aesthetics i don't really know much about aesthetics that's what i'm playing jamie you play a tape later massage do i get to go next yeah because james because mike's gonna play five after this all right you play a tape. Later massage. Do I get to go next? Yeah, because Mike's going to play five after this. All right, I got a tape here. What I got about? On a French label. Oh, nope. A freedom label?
Starting point is 00:47:52 Freedom label. We've played this label before. It's called Soon. Actually, I have the pronunciation here. Spell it. And I was DMing the label guy this morning. Oh my God, I'm sure you were. There's a lot of themes. Yeah, you want to read? You can come over and read it read your text hi this is jamie orlando from
Starting point is 00:48:09 tabs out here's the pronunciation just bought a tape on your label soon saw it wasn't oh wait soon soon soon soon is this it's it's a danish, but it's a French label. And the label head is Francesco Ameglio. Francesco Ameglio. Which does not sound like a French name. That doesn't sound like a French name. Wow, international stuff. The Olympics just happened, and this is feeling very... That sounds Spanish?
Starting point is 00:48:35 I don't know. Like from Spain? It's an international, but... What about Italian? It could be Italian. That would be my guess. You guess Italian. Or Spanish.
Starting point is 00:48:43 That's what I said, from Spain. Oh, it's from Spain. Well, I didn't know that. Well, I said it, Jamie. This is another example. You don't fucking guess. You would guess Italian. Or Spanish. That's what I said, from Spain. That's what I'm saying. Well, I didn't know that. Well, I said it, Jamie. This is another example. You don't fucking listen to me when I talk. But it's an international theme, but a local artist. William Fields, our good friend Bill Fields.
Starting point is 00:48:57 World music. Am I allowed to just call him Bill Fields on the show? I don't know. It says William Fields on the thing. I mean, it shows a little bit of respect. Bleed that out. Yeah. I don't know. It says William Fields on the thing. It shows a little bit of respect. If you want to, you can awkwardly text him and ask him
Starting point is 00:49:08 information about himself like you tend to do with some of these artists. What? Red tape. Nothing on it. No label or anything. You gotta put something on it. You gotta put something. Sorry. Not playing it. You know what scares me?
Starting point is 00:49:24 What's this? a variation of the brad pack this like paper pack that it comes in this die it's a chad chad pack oh it's a chad pack is that really what it's called no i've just made that up is this like a custom thing because it's got a little like nub in the back yeah people were like with their like paper covers for their tapes they were like it opens up too easily so they added this like little security measure so you couldn't get in there now these my grandfather invented that it's a security measure these paper things always they always make me afraid because like if it gets wet or something then the whole thing's shot yeah yeah that could happen yeah then the whole thing shot but i also i like uh when a label like that segues into our
Starting point is 00:50:06 sponsor for today's episode paper no it's a spray that you put on paper so it doesn't get wet oh like yeah you know what i do with all these paper cases for cassette tapes i laminate them right away i get a five mil lamination on there right away uh it's a museum grade kind of protection buck gooter yeah uh the the the one dude um now i can't remember his name but uh he would always laminate all his art like drawings oh really you have to keep him safe okay well i bet it worked yeah i bet i kept it safe now joe b what's his name terry turtle terry turtle peace Terry Turtle Now Joe B being as someone who you love Dissecting like the nubs Oh I didn't even look at the nubs
Starting point is 00:50:50 Well there are nubs Yeah that's what I'm getting at So how do you feel about that Well that doesn't even concern me What if the tape jiggles around a little bit too much in the paper case You need the nubs to hold I don't spend any brain power on paper packaging sorry i'm a nub guy can i can i talk about william fields i didn't talk about any of these nubs
Starting point is 00:51:10 from the previous tapes you talk about bill fields i need to investigate these i mean i'll let you know what i find just for our listeners sake talk about bill phil uh william william fields show an ounce of respect sometimes first i'm going to talk about myself oh god so when i was in omni soul jamie well please he was one of the first experimental artists i played even before i played with any of you guys i played with beck fields jamie i've been doing experimental music since no good yeah you played with that field i went to his house and we jammed and did yeah and we made a little recording with that we never released it but um he at it was at the very beginning of like his current music system now so he's developed with using like code and everything and reaper
Starting point is 00:51:49 and a lot of programming knowledge he's made his own music system that he the little sliders that you saw him use on stage the other day the controller device yeah like he used to have that on an ipad but now he has it on a hardware device but that controls it doesn't control like filters it controls randomness okay so his his whole system is based on like different levels of entropy and randomness he's so random it's so random does he know you can just go like hey siri play music yeah and it'll just do it you don't have to do all that shit and uh he um he's a smart guy he released a 24 hour um i build pretty good release on band camp that it's just generative so it's every hour is a different style of generative music where he just hit hit play on his music system and let it just i can do that jamie compose a thing and it
Starting point is 00:52:37 got so much attention that um he was on richard divine's podcast richard divine richard divine warped warped synth guyped. Synth guy. Singular warp. Big time guy. Warped. Warped. He's got some respect in the industry.
Starting point is 00:52:49 He does. It's cool to have him in Delaware and it was cool that he played the other night with a label mate, Matthew Riles.
Starting point is 00:52:54 Matthew Riles. Another segue. Another new tape on Svun. Svun. You can just go like, hey Siri, play a version
Starting point is 00:53:01 of Wake Me Up. Wake me up! Thank you Siri. Thank thank you sir and it's done that's like you just triggered siri on my phone when you said that by the way what's my phone doing very funny all right i'll play some tapes here william fields what do y'all know you know what i got one that's also in kind of in a paper case oh look at you so maybe i'll play that this is like it's called the tape is called farming by a duo i got some sounds for that there you go farming duo of mcclure and white are their names it's limited to 29 on a label called long arm artifacts and it's like okay it's not this but this is what it made me think of you know joe b you know when you'll bring like a tape like a dungeon synth adjacent
Starting point is 00:53:51 tape that's like a game that you play it's like an rpg yeah okay so you know how in the gaming world there are like dry games about like agriculture and stuff yeah dave plays those yeah listening to this tape makes me feel it's the equivalent of when you listen to a dungeon synth tape and you think of an rpg you think about going into a cave and like yeah and it's like battling a troll an orc emerges from the smoke so this evokes farming this evokes this makes me think of someone is like reading you the rules and you're about like they got all the game is spread out in front of you. It's like. And they're like it's really easy. It looks. It's really easy. It's like
Starting point is 00:54:29 a resource management. Yes. This tape makes me feel like the way that a dungeon synth tape makes you feel like you're playing Dungeons and Dragons. This makes me feel like you're playing a dry game called farming. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:44 No. Not farting and like i said limited to 29 uh the cover itself while i i would believe that this could be one of the cards from the game what's this an o card it's like a paper o card and yeah this is the this is the cover hey that's the cover and it comes with this insert that you fold out and like there's the pieces invocative of like pieces of a game oh yeah but you'll get what i mean when we play it i'm gonna spend five weeks to upgrade my yeah yeah upgrade my tractor and now i produce two more wheats for every sector there you go yes it'll make you feel like that It'll make you feel like that.
Starting point is 00:55:25 It'll make you feel like you're playing a game like that. Well, I'm going to play Blight, and that cancels your two wheats. Well, I've planted winter wheat, which can't... Uh-oh, a locust swarm. My sorghum will... Sorghum. Okay.
Starting point is 00:55:41 So, now, Jamie, let me show your little... Let's write this game. Yeah. I'm amped to play. I'm going to show your little let's write this game yeah i'm just a half way up to play i'm gonna show your little sweaty flat ass how to do a segue so that's farming and then i'm gonna play a tape of corn synth corn synth this is corn synth by i guess i don't speak french matt rubidow matt rubidow that's another familiar sounding name why do i. Why do we know that name? Matt Rubidow. I don't know why we know it. Is he a cat?
Starting point is 00:56:08 I mean, you could look it up right now. So why is this called corn synth? I didn't completely get to the bottom of that, but I think all the stuff that this person does is classified as corn synth. Okay, because it doesn't say it anywhere on the tape. They've put out stuff on Null Zone, Already Dead, Kendra Steiner Editions.
Starting point is 00:56:25 This is the genre of music that they play. I guess the genre of music is corn synth. I think they're the only ones doing it, and I don't know. Oh, I have. And it's called Matt Robodeau, but it's more than one person? No, I think it's just that person. No, there's three people on the back here. Are they, like, helping?
Starting point is 00:56:43 Are they, like, any? It's hard to read the text because it's like green it looks cool any ivory black midi accordion chuck johnson pedals the old guitar matt norman plays the baritone and e-drum baritone horn you're a horn guy jamie matt norman played a norwalk bike project before look at that look atlex homan oh and you're not going to believe this i don't know if this is the same chuck johnson it might be a different one but this chuck johnson on discogs is a mixing engineer who worked at indigo ranch studios no way i'm not fucking with you guys there's a lot of connections in this episode i call them segues but i'm segways wow that's such a cool segue it's like a neural network life's crazy do you know that matt
Starting point is 00:57:31 robodeau was in lenny kravitz 3 i did see that yeah what's lenny kravitz it's a duo with matt robodeau and dan mcleod and they have one dan mcleod's uncle Yeah He used to work at Charcoal Pit Was a farmer So the presentation of this Matt Ribbedoo tape Which is called Mush Songs or something It's called
Starting point is 00:57:56 Mush Songs Mesh Songs So the presentation is very impressive Is that what Omni Soul sounded like? No we're a little less butt-rocky It's too butt-rocky and heavy But along those lines You're more like No, that's a little too bubblegum-y
Starting point is 00:58:13 That's too bubblegum-y Like Spin Doctors And it was all yellow Oh, like Coldplay But you rocked a little bit too, right? We we did we had a little bit of edge okay yeah shut up about this god damn edge all right let me explain the presentation of this tape which is very nice not a lot going into it which makes it even better so it's got the norelco case the back of it nice orange tint the tape is clear with black print on one side and green
Starting point is 00:58:46 print on the other which like you see through it it's very hard to read and then on the narako case itself is like a laser etching of a little like cloud or something like that or some kind of i do see it's like a little cloud monster it all comes together very nice and that's how you do a segment jamie is this label called tone the label yeah you're asking me tongue tone there's air tone air tone oh so that's a cloud yeah air tone air tone because it says tone and laser underneath okay yeah so that's the tape i'm gonna play jamie did before we get into this did you want to like text any of these people like pictures like swimsuit pictures of you or anything well i was i'm not sure if i said this already, but I was DMing Francisco Ameglio

All I have is videos, but I could take a screenshot from the video. I like the one where Conrad's playing the flute. Yeah, zoom and enhance. You want to hear it? That was a good show. Yeah. The Nausea Requiem.
Starting point is 01:20:22 Let me see what the logo is. The Nausea Requiem. The band is called The Nausea. The tape is tape is called requiem oh is that what it is yeah because the requiem is really small underneath you know i told you i didn't know how to do that so what do you mean when they use a different font it's a different well it's the same font but it's smaller i don't get it i don't get it this is not this like is this like a band well this is not that punk band nausea. Well, this is the nausea. Were there two? Was there like a cross band and another band both called nausea at the same time?
Starting point is 01:20:51 I don't think so. I feel like there was one nausea on like Slap a Hammer or something. Wasn't there? I think that's the same. No, there might be actually. I feel like there was like, well, this is not that. Because there is a nausea that was like during the time of Agnostic Front. Oh, I know that band.
Starting point is 01:21:08 Agnostic Front? I've heard of them. Yeah, you've heard of them. I haven't heard of any of the other bands you're talking about. The AF, dude. Yeah. Jamie. Not my world.
Starting point is 01:21:15 So this is The Nausea. The Nausea. The name of the album is Requiem. Requiem. And the name of the label is Absurd Exposition. Absurd Exposition. I'll tell you what's absurd is the size of the font on this thing i know i complained about it every year the fonts get smaller and smaller
Starting point is 01:21:29 i can't read that stuff this is anju sing on violin viola cello electronics voids and creative mixing i think this is creative mixing i like when they get creative with it i think this is two labels that put it out all right's the other label? Absurd Exposition and Creative Mixing. And Buried in Slag and Debris. Buried in Slag and Debris? Yeah. I feel like a good name for a label would be Creative
Starting point is 01:21:55 Mixing. I like when they get creative with the mix. You know what I like? When they get nasty with the mixing. Yeah. Me too. Recorded and mixed by Jess Gaddner at Rain City Records. Now, did they get... Who could that be?
Starting point is 01:22:09 Did Jesse get creative with the mixing? Hmm. So this just came in the mail yesterday. I got it out of the mailbox this morning. And I listened to a little bit of it
Starting point is 01:22:20 and I was like, this is pretty good. Why not just play it today? Just play it. Just fuck. Look at all that lobster meat. Sound art and creative mixing they're from vancouver british columbia oh bc anju sing anju sing yeah we're gonna roll the list of all all the fun different instruments they play violin you want to do it again let's go ahead what else we said it already yeah but
Starting point is 01:22:40 go ahead but there's no you know you can fact check me violin viola cello electronics vocals noise oh i didn't list all these sound art i knew you didn't that's why i'm doing it because you didn't all right what else because i didn't know there was sound art on this sound art and creative mixing i love when they get that's all you care about yeah so i'm gonna play a track from this tape i thought there's gonna be a metal tape it looks like it would be a heavy metal tape like a or maybe like a godflesh yeah yeah that's what i was you thought it's gonna be like yeah like slim not i thought it was going to be like Slimpknot. Ladies and gentlemen, the nausea.
Starting point is 01:23:29 Oh, wow. Requiem is really so much smaller. So much smaller. Look at the spine, though. I think you have font blinders. I do have font. Guys, actually, I've been meaning to talk to you about this. I just got back. You can't tell the sizes of fonts.
Starting point is 01:23:41 Oh, you can't tell the sizes. You can tell what they are, though. He knows what they are, but he can't tell the sizes. It's like Times New Roman. Well, actually, not to be a dick, but a Oh, you can't tell the sizes. You can tell what they are, though. He knows what they are, but he can't tell the sizes. It's like Times New Roman. Well, actually, not to be a dick, but a font is the typeface and the size. I disagree with that. I disagree, because the size is like when you're in Word and you can put 12. Eight.
Starting point is 01:23:56 But what you're saying, like Arial is a typeface, and Arial 9. is a font. Oh. So good. It's so good on my lips all right now it's out 199 and then hey hey oh hold on and then this new tiger village tape also just came in uh printing on the tape grid work i know that he went hard with the tape tim thornton that sounded like a very forced response look at all that printing it's the tape. It's because when I showed Joe this tape earlier, and I was like, you want to play this? And he said, no.
Starting point is 01:24:27 I was like, but look at this shell, man. Tim went hard on this shell. And he said, I've seen better than that. Yeah. But I've also seen better than this, but it's still pretty good. It's still good. It's still pretty good.
Starting point is 01:24:38 How you doing? So yeah, this is new stuff from Tim Thornton thornton from ohio who runs sweet 309 309 the label that this is on like i said went hard with the shell imprinting um but actually now that you say it joe i don't like it either yeah i like a minimal i've seen it before i like people who don't try hard you know what i like nothing on it i like that's weird because i don't like that yeah there was a tape in the box but that's too much listen if you're gonna put out a tape do it just right there's a fine line there's a let's go to the let's go and then i'm gonna play he got a virus
Starting point is 01:25:16 sky mines echoes on the shore oh is that strategic tape reserve is that what that is no it's uh did you just pull this out of the mailbag as well i got this uh this is inner islands oh the spine logo looks similar from a distance no you don't know your tape load that's true yeah this is a little doodle of like two uh inner islands say the water and the sun when did you get this you did not gave it to me a couple weeks ago okay so this is like a fairly new one? Fairly new one, yeah. And who is it? This is the one I've been waiting for. Sky Mines. Sky Mines.
Starting point is 01:25:48 Echoes on the Shore, Inner Islands. No other info really besides track titles. Oh man, really trailing off here at the end. Yeah. Well, what? I didn't do any research for this one. I know. Don't worry, just wait for me.
Starting point is 01:26:00 Yeah, wait for Jamie. I'm saving it all for Jamie. I got about 30 minutes of material. He's got a lot of material. I'm keeping my set short. Yeah, we can. This is warm up, man. Let's play some shitty.
Starting point is 01:26:07 The opener doesn't go longer. Yeah. You want to be a closer, man, but you're not. I got a tape. Tiger Village. Don't know much about it. It's brand new. Joe doesn't like the shell.
Starting point is 01:26:16 Joe's got a tape. Sky Mines. It's on a label that looks like another label. He's going to play that. Jamie. Jamie. Jamie. Jamie.
Starting point is 01:26:23 Jamie, please. Now, this is where we... Joe, turn on the fan, by the way. the fan yes you're not here oh but now it's gonna the sound right well it's torn down are people still here are you still with us well they've been waiting since the beginning for this fucking for this thing oh yeah this is where we get to you're about to unload this shit right i'm about to unload i've been taking notes king of slam there's been so many references yeah what have all the segways been let's go over them um all right the person that opened for my band that was on the voice god he won't shut up about this oh yeah i forgot what oh my band omni solo yeah your band omni solo you know not to like how many records did you put out um we put out two full-length albums and two eps nice not to shit on the thing about somebody from
Starting point is 01:27:06 the voice opening but if you could have gotten someone from the mass singer yeah i really feel like i would have went if you got somebody from the best singer to open up sorry this is this is a delaware connection though okay that's fine this is all connected the second reference was we were talking about like i had been texting other people like the person from earth color was texting so i was texting this person from Earth Color was texting. So I was texting this person this morning. Joe earlier asked me about the last book I read, which is related. Somebody said it's an honor.
Starting point is 01:27:33 The word honor is related. And then there was two things during the breaks, which the listeners didn't hear. But somebody, we were talking about a handwritten note. That's a reference. And then we're also talking about negotiating. And that's another note. So keep all those. It then we're also talking about negotiating, and that's another note. So keep all those. It's six distinct concepts in your mind.
Starting point is 01:27:48 I'm confused. So I'm going to take you back now to, let's go back to 1984. 1984. You're in 1984. Return of the Jedi has hit theaters. When cocaine was cocaine. When cocaine. Bolivian white.
Starting point is 01:28:01 You're in 1984. You're in Delaware, the state of Delaware, 1984. I didn't live here here I didn't move here Until 89 Okay I was here Jamie Go ahead What do you need to know
Starting point is 01:28:09 There was a band On the scene Back then Okay And it was a trio And I'm friends Three people Right
Starting point is 01:28:16 I'm friends With two out of the three Of those people You son of a bitch What happened With the third person I'm not friends with him I don't know
Starting point is 01:28:23 Why What happened I don't know who it is You guys were falling out No I just don't. I never met. Okay, so you're friends with these two old guys. And you've been avoiding the third one. I'm going to pass around a tape
Starting point is 01:28:32 real quick. And this is not the tape I'm playing. But the band's name is Honor Society. Oh, Honor Society. The friend that I have that I'm really close with is a guy named Richie Rubini. How close? Well, he produced two of my band's albums um back in the 2000s and um actually in the omni-soul reunion show he was on stage with us playing he
Starting point is 01:28:50 played a song with us and um all right and actually that's another segue i didn't even write down i love his eyes light up but um his daughter is olivia rubini who was on the voice she made it to the semi-finals she opened for us and she also performed with us. Jamie, this says 85 in here, by the way. Oh, there is a year in there? Yep. Because I asked Richie, I texted him,
Starting point is 01:29:10 I said, what year is it? He said 84. This says 85. So now my immersion is totally... He said that he spray painted that tape. Oh, another tie-in is when we saw Bad Trips, it was at Squeezebox Records
Starting point is 01:29:20 and that tape was on sale for $100. $100. You showed this to me. Why? It was on sale for... And I brought it up to the counter. This tape here that Joe had is Honor Society? Yeah. It was on sale for $100. You showed this to me. Why? It was on sale for, and I brought it up to the counter. This tape here that Joe has is Honor Society?
Starting point is 01:29:28 Yeah. It was on sale for $100. It's not even on Discogs. Are you sure it wasn't $10? Nope. So I brought it to the counter. I said, does that really say $100? And he said, yeah, it does.
Starting point is 01:29:37 And I said, is there really a market? No offense to Richie or Dean, who are the two guys I know that might be listening to this. You know, much deserved, but like, how long is that going to be on the shelf until somebody spends $100? I said, I'll give you $25 for it. And he actually said, okay, yeah, $25 sounds good. It's called negotiating.
Starting point is 01:29:56 Negotiating. So I texted Richie and I said, your tape was on sale for $100. And he's like, oh, I spray painted it. He was telling me about the tapes. He spray painted the... Old school. We're not going to play that, but the very next day,
Starting point is 01:30:07 Richie Rubini, he lives in Hocas, in this town that I live in, he dropped this tape off in my mailbox. So this is a compilation tape called So This Is Newark. So Newark is where
Starting point is 01:30:15 University of Delaware is. Wait, so you weren't home? I wasn't home. He came by my house. You came home and you found this in your mailbox? He put it in my mailbox. Oh, what a cool mystery.
Starting point is 01:30:23 Joe, if you open the tape, there is a hand-drawn note in there, which is another segue from i'm saying segues these aren't segues these are just things that you're saying yeah at the cover of the picture of main street yeah isn't that cool that is like if you saw that a record store you would buy that right oh yeah yeah so that's awesome i said oh look at that enjoy with a doodle yeah and that's a doodle of him oh he made this. This is cute. Yeah, he drew himself on it. Is he an artist? Has he ever taken a lesson?
Starting point is 01:30:50 No, I don't think so. That's natural. He's a good friend. Yeah, he can really do faces. I thought that was really generous that he put that in my mail. Because that's the kind of stuff I love. These, like, a tape from 1987 from Delaware. I'll take that. That's your love language. I'd buy that for a dollar.
Starting point is 01:31:04 So, the connections. So, the text message the text message the daughter oh the last book i read you want to know about the last book i do yeah it's a history of newark it's called um the yin and yang of it all and it's by a guy named john fay do you guys know john fay is that name ring a bell no he was the singer from from a band called the caulfields who was signed to a&m in the 90s and richie was the drummer for that band. Remember the song, I'm bigger than Jesus now. The Beatles. That's the quote from the Beatles. There was a 90s
Starting point is 01:31:31 song that was on the radio. The Beatles. That was Richie's band. Richie was in the Beatles? The drummer. And John Fay, the singer. It's actually an excellent book. It talks about a lot of old school Delaware history, which is really fun. So what year did this comp come out?
Starting point is 01:31:48 Look on the spine. 87. 87. And we're going to play the Honor Society track in honor of Richie and Dean. Right. And Dean's been at the Final Friday shows before. Really? He's a cool dude, yeah.
