We were fortunate to get the opportunity to chat with Brian Turner, the Music and Program Director at the legendary NYC-area freeform station WFMU, for today's Fall Pledge Drive show. Not only was it interesting to talk radio and music with Brian, but to get his take on supporting stations like KMSU. As Brian suggested, supporting a station like ours is even more important now in a time where choice is dwindling. If you haven't done so already, please consider making a pledge to support KMSU as viable choice within our community. You can call the station at 389-5678 or 1-800-456-7810 to make a pledge.
If you'd like to find out more information about WFMU head over to www.wfmu.org. Also, definitely check out the playlists and archives of Brian's show that he hosts every Tuesday from 2-5 p.m.
Below is some Sun City Girls footage as discussed on today's show:

Circle
Tower featuring Verde
[Last Visible Dog Records]
The latest from this Finnish band who are known to hop genres from album-to-album. Tower is a laid back album, guided by jazzy organ textures and a subtle groove that keeps these six tracks in forward motion. Tower could easily fit on such KMSU programs as Maverick Slim's Jazz show or even Echoes. All bliss and drift.

[Counter / Ninja Tuna]
Haven't spent enough time listening to this one to offer anything beyond the obvious retro/T-Rex comparisons. While this may sound somewhat derivative, this album offers enough updates on that sound to keep things fresh. It may not be something you'll be listening to five years down the road, but it's definitely something you should hear now. Here's what pitchfork media had to say.

FFFreakout Record of the Week:
You're Holding Me Down: 30 Freakbeat, Mod & R&B Nuggets
[Castle Music]
This collection offers an excellent point of entry into the sound world of the late eccentric British producer, Joe Meek. While 'Telstar', his most widely known production, is not featured on this compilation, 30 other fuzzed-out, organ drenched jams are packed into this collection, which should warrant any garage-rock obsessive to run to their local independent record store immediately. A good chunk of the material on You're Holding Me Down rivals that of the original Nuggets collection. The Syndicats 'Crawdaddy Simone', which we played on today's show, is a prime example. One listen to the blistering guitar work on this song and you will be mentioning them in the same breath as White Light/White Heat-era VU, which is no small potatoes. Go get it!

FFFreakout Record of the Week:
Panda Bear
Person Pitch
[Paw Tracks]
Panda Bear’s first album The Young Prayer was a stripped down affair, offering up dream-like vocals, layered over randomly strummed acoustic guitar figures. Created in the wake of his father’s death, the album was imbued with a sense of melancholy and loss. With the recent birth of a daughter and relocation to a sunny Euro environment, Panda has reason to rejoice and this certainly shines through on Person Pitch.
Pieced together in a collage-like fashion using a variety of loops and patterns, Person Pitch is an electronic album created with modern ears and a classic 60’s pop sensibility. In fact, it’s hard not to mention the Beach Boys when describing the beautiful vocal harmonies that Panda liberally employs throughout. While his Mac, rather than his acoustic guitar, seems to be his main instrument, Panda has an ear for organic sound sources and classic vocal melodies that overcomes the redundancies of many dancefloor electronic albums. While shorter tracks such as Comfy in Nautica and Take Pills are certainly the strongest, the two 10+ minute songs Bros and Good Girl/Carrot provide enough sonic variation within their extended rhythmic pulse to keep things engaging.
All said, Person Pitch is the perfect album as we head into the summer months. Turn this baby up loud as you are driving around with your windows down.

For those who want to delve deeper:
The Siltbreeze label were purveyors of the lo-fi aesthetic during its heyday in the 90's, releasing albums by such notables as Guided by Voices, the Dead C, and Charalambides among others. After closing down shop for several years, they are back and have released some stellar albums that maintain that same lo-fi goodness. Both Sapat and Pink Reason, whom we played on today's show, are recent releases from Siltbreeze. For more info. check out their website.
After a string of solid albums, the legendary Fall have returned with a new long player entitled Reformation Post-TLC. Mark E. Smith leads an ever-changing new line-up through 13 new songs of the "Fall Sound". Upon initial listening, this album doesn't have the same bite has the last few, but I have never heard a bad Fall album among the lot. Check out the Fall's website for all the happenings in their orbit.

Anyone interested in delving a little deeper:
- Does a Christian cult band from the 1970's who cites its influences as Balinese chant, Venezuelan harp music, Indian raga, African rhythm, Tibetan ritual gong, and American folk music sound intriguing to you? If so, The Christ Tree box set is one wild ride of a listen. Click here for more info.
- Need more soul? The Numero Group label has been releasing some amazing compilations of obscure regional soul labels over the past few years. The Sidney Pinchback track we played on today's show was from the new 2CD collection entitled Twinight's Lunar Rotation. Click here for more info.

Thanks to anyone who has or continues to tune in to our show each week. Not much has changed over the past year other than we can now operate the boards on our own (sometimes at least). Our schedules don't provide us much for pre-show planning and most of what we play is worked out while we are "on air", but this feels like the right way to do it. Besides, it's the music that keeps us coming back each week. So many great albums that keep coming out and so many new paths of musical discovery to be made. We hope that the music keeps you listeners coming back or that maybe we can spark a new interest for you to explore.
Thanks to our friends at Shuffle Function for their on-going support and to Gully for allowing us to stay on the air.
