Xtreme Mindz 1988

Free download/re-issue of 4-Song 1988 Cassette EP by Xtreme Mindz from Montréal, Québec, Canada

In 2009 in a Montreal thrift shop Mingo L’indien and I ran across a local 1980s EP on cassette. Two years later we have located surviving members and with help from friends (notes, art, mastering) we have released the EP for download in MP3, FLAC and WAV format… with full permission from the group.

Tullis & Clark SelectQuote Favorites

It’s a radio commercial. Or was. A conversation between Dan Tullis and Joel Clark. Who? It has something to do with choosing the right insurance and it was repetitively slammed down the ears of many on radio stations from what I gather. Found this thread which gives more background to it all. Here’s another post about it.

Now it’s been mixed up on WFMU! Featuring remixes from: A Great Many, Otis Fodder, Beth Sorrentino, Lane Steinberg, Administrator Der Christer Schytts, T. Gould, Paul Pearson (DJ Paul Shrug), Fran Blanche, Irwin Chusid, Drew Keller, AnAnonymousParty, Rabbit Hash Radio, and others. Program produced and programmed live by Irwin Chusid on December 28, 2011.

If you are a fan of Negativland styled OTE radio shows you may just make it through the whole hour.

Bran Flakes mix it up from the 11:30 to 13:52 minute mark.

The Rabbit Hash Radio Hour

Last month Eric Kilkenny (Martinibomb) asked me if I would be interested in putting together a guest mix for his online radio show/project, The Rabbit Hash Radio Hour. Of course I said yes. You see Eric is not only a pal but a collaborator for many years. He directed/animated a video in 2009 for one of our Bran Flakes songs, I Wonder Where My Grandmother Is?. Plus he released music on the old net label project I headed up, Comfort Stand: SPLIT! (EP release with Coconut Monkeyrocket) + the compilations Two Zombies Later, Comfort Cake, and Wakka Chikka Wakka Chikka.

RABBIT HASH RADIO – EPISODE #50

Sounds for Streaming

Finally got around to jumping on Soundcloud today.

The songs on soundcloud are more of a calling card/introduction than anything else. A quick answer to the question, “what do you sound like”. So here is a bit of what I create (solo and with others) and I hope you enjoy some of it. More to be added in time.
