Title: SPECIAL INTERESTS "radio"
Post by: FreakAnimalFinland on November 25, 2012, 08:00:12 PM
Thinking of that older topic of "podcast" and listening some of the MuhMur and Loud/Louder/Loudest.
Giving a try, 30 min episode, related to topic of Japanese noise obscurities. Could follow up with more later on, but possibly another theme for another 30 min program.
Excuse the lame dialogues between track. I personally like to follow stream without need to every time check out who's playing, so few words between.
Intent keep it relatively short, focus on materials that are not easily available (majority of these things can't be found listed on discogs, and I assume not from youtube/whatever..).

NEW VERSION:

Not sure if soundcloud is the best place to upload. Uploaded Wav file and it was transformed to something else by site, and sounded crappier than mp3 what I did and uploaded. Visually sound curves looks as if some tracks would be very loud compared to others, but when actually listening, should be in pretty good balance.

If some further info is needed, ask.

Excellent choice for a theme, I am well versed and deeply enthusiastic about much of classic Japanese noise but because most of the lesser known stuff is banished to very limited small run cassettes that haven't been in print for many years my knowledge of the lesser known stuff is slim. Thanks for the chance to check a chunk of it out.

Very nice!

Is it just me or are all of the tracks except Sinner's Crime ouf of phase? The speeches and track 4 sound all right, others have this OOP effect on them.

yep, I will re-make the whole thing.
I guess the thing was broken cable issue actually. I was thinking why in hell tapes sound much better...  Expect new version online in near future - with heavier and not so out-of-phase sound.. I guess THAT was the main reason why first online version sounded so crappy I tried to correct it with better mp3 transfer... So don't go listen this again yet. Wait for new version announced soon.

So, new version, you can see the difference even visually. Tracks are in better balance. All stuff was ripped again. Some stuff is same as before (Sinners Crime, Colloid, L&S) and others are slightly different selection. Almost the same, but slighly different moment of tape.

Greatly enjoyed the 1st edition.  The frantic vocals on the Love & Sincerity track is superb.
