Radio Recap

Oh hey internet, good tidings to you.

I have been doing a radio show on the School of The Art Institute of Chicago’s free internet radio station, Freeradiosaic.org.  This show is called The Anti-Zabmat Radio Terror Club.  What follows is a series of links to various show archives.  They aren’t classified by individual episode on the site itself, so my descriptions are vaguely necessary I guess to distinguish between episodes/shows.  As it stands right now, shows are only available to stream I think, but if the demand is there (which I can’t imagine it is) I will get the shows in mp3 form and put them up for download.  Later in the week, expect tracklists for these shows.

March 5, 2009 – The Show With My Mom On It

So, my mom came to town and was on my radio station.  This show is mostly soul music and functions in a mellower vein.  Brief interviews with my mom who totally got shy every time I tried to get her to talk on the air.  LISTEN.

March 12, 2009 – Anti-Fascist Summit (feat. Ben Bontempo)

Ben Bontempo, dear friend, bandmate, active member of the Anti-Zabmat underground, guests on this show, recorded after I had an altercation with some airforce douche-bag on the train.  There’s more talking on this show, but it’s pretty good, I tell a good story and Ben improvises some great anti-fascist poetry.  Forgive the volume of the intro-music in comparison to our voices.  A lot of great punk and political-soul on this show.  LISTEN, COMRADES.

March 19, 2009 – The Show That Opens With Metallica And I Make Promises I Don’t Keep

At the beginning of this show, I promise that it will be mostly metal and free-jazz which it turns out not to be, although the two promised genres are included here and there.  This is truly the essence of a good AZRT show;  I play whatever I want, regardless of theme, and it turns out pretty well.  This show is highly recommended.  DARE THEE LISTEN??

March 26, 2009 – Post-Birthday Covers Show, feat. [CENSORED] and a studio full of hungry mutants.

So, [CENSORED] and I got monstrously stoned in the park before this show and I make a lot of idiotic allusions to that while I try to embarrass [CENSORED] by getting her to talk about “the semiotic implications of the Cover Song” while she is space-faced.  This show is mostly covers with a few other songs I had been itching to play thrown in to fuck up the theme a little.  Most efficiently themed show by far, opens with great Biddu Orchestra (non-cover) song.  The booth is eventually raided by a bunch of kids and things get pretty silly.  A good show.  LISTEN, IF YOU’RE NOT A COP.

Enjoy!
