Yo! Back now for real in 2008! Fresh hard drives to stuff more hard driving drives. herding tapes n round things like records n' discs all into one convenient, if not confusing place. Two resolutions for the new year: i'm hosting a new monthly performance series at the bar down the hill from me in TF and of course, resuming the monthly frothy podcast. Are those resolutions?

megamix of the best music ever - ethiopian soul music from 60s/70s. most of these tracks were pulled from various collections & reissues on the fabulous Buda Musique Label's Ethiopiques Series - get them all, i am trying. "wax & gold" is a lyric form full of double-meanings where seemingly fluffy content hides sentiments of dissatisfaction/protest from the crushing machine of the thought-police. i'd like to pour a few drops out for mister Mohammed 'Jimmy' Mohammed, who left us late in december. The last track, by him, is the only recent material on this mix, from his disc on Terp. i'm dedicating the first song on this mix to him, a beautiful tune by his hero, Tlahoun Gessesse - in english it's called, "The Memory I Will Leave Behind." Although not wax & gold, these lyrics start: "Record my voice so you can cry for me. It will be a memory on the day of my death." "Yene mastawesha" - Tlahoun Gessesse "Ewnètègna Feqer" - Hirut Bèqèlè & Police Orchestra "Aynotché Tèrabu" - Mahmoud Ahmed "Gèdawo" - Ayaléw Mèsfin & Black Lion Band "Tchero Adari Nègn" - Alèmayèhu Eshèté "Amlak Abét Abét" - Assèlèfètch Ashiné & Géténèsh Kebrèt & Army Band "Eté Endénesh Gèdawo" - Muluqèn Mèllèssè "Gubèlyé Mulatu Astatqé "Qotchègn Mèssassaté" - Alèmayèhu Eshèté "Enkèn Yèlélèbesh" - Girma Bèyènè "Mot Adèladlogn" - Tèshomé Meteku "Antchi enen wededjgn" - Mahmoud Ahmed "Mèla Mèla" - Sèyfu Yohannès "Man Yehon Telleq Sèw" - Alèmayèhu Eshèté "Altchalkoum" - Mohammed “Jimmy” Mohammed

Mess O Boops in the 2 double O 7 day two of newyear and here's what we got: one turntable, working tapedeck and the cd player... droppin bromp-style on the fly tapeloops to augment the already clunky edits - with the future goal of totally unpleasant unsmooth mixes. what themes can you make out of this one? tapelabel's mailing address has changed, send jams so i can continually be overwhelmed: Yeay! Cassettes PO box 7 Turners Falls, MA 01376 USA. piece of WAR / this is ruined / tapeloop Nmperign/Jason Lescaleet - trk 7 from "love me two times" selections from Diagram A tape on Open Mouth Reanimator - "mayne is an orange animal" Gastric Female Reflex - chunks of "Nairobi Piece" bits of Rotton Carracas "plant water" tape Scorcher - "chance us" winston riley announcement snippet of Tarantism tape Super Cat - "boops" boops in me tapeloops Nomo - from "one to one" Stark Reality - intro to "shooting stars" Arthur Doyle Electroacoustic Ensemble - "omo" Digital Underground - "the new Jazz (one)" / "underwater" intro tiny excerpt from STEM tape Radioshock - "white noise ain't got no soul" Gregory Isaacs - "i am alright" alright tapeloop piece of Wicked Act's "No Heathen" 12"...

shit. spring cleaning for the winter solstice - this heap is offered to lighten the increasing load and keep the ship afloat. autumn was a fast n deep plummet, with more trying to get in, and so, here, cobbled together, are two failed mixes for your enjoyment/annoyance. no playlist, but MINUTEMEN do rep a few times, so it can't be that bad. regularity, positivity & freshness garanteed for the new jams of 2007.

much to be ecstatic about recently with so much a comin thru and the evenings chillin out. . . life under the flightplan of touring geese is complicated and full of small debris fires and perennial plantings. still, with a great deal of projects way overdue, here is the need to purge the system with a small mix of many friends who've recently performed round these parts (plus a few who i wished would, but may never). these norwegians were planted on our couch, lookit how well they sprouted! Flying Lizards - "herstory" Bhob Rainey - "a desert of consolation" Moscow Mule - "fucking (sex is boring)" Mulatu Astatke - "mulatu" Carlos Giffoni - "aad lion" Chris Corsano - "how do you know where to throw the ball?" Brotzmann/Bennink - "no. 5" nmperign - from pt 2 of "i am sitting in a fucking room" MoHa! - "B3" Matrix - "99 quarter notes" Antibalas - "makossa # 3" Getatchew Mekurya - "aha gedawo" Sword Heaven - "town hag" U Roy - "festival wise" and a lil talking over Big Youth.
