Guten Tag, meine Freude! Wie geht's?

So I was looking up pictures for this blog post, and because I few songs were German, and I've been wanting to go to Heidelberg here in Ann Arbor, I decided to give you many pictures of German bar maids carrying copious amounts of Bier. Magst du das? Auch, wer will trinken viel Bier mit mir am Donnerstag? Vielleicht nicht.

This show (despite being only slightly German), was pretty dark, compared to my usual shows. I blame it on the rain, and honestly, I think it was pretty perfect for a rainy day. I even had a caller affirm my feelings, so thanks dude. There was lots of German schtuff, metal, and lots of weird ambient music, and I had a pretty good time of it. What do you think?

This show was one of those days where I realized when radio is truly relevant in my life, because when you're listening to internet radio, or a CD you like, you can only get a certain feeling. When you're listening to the radio, the DJ can change how they feel at any second, and often will be feeling similar things to what you are feeling, especially in lieu of shitty weather.

Anyway, onto the playlist!

Lady Be Good:

1.  Dögun/Lovers/Lakes Layer/Hafssól: This was probably one of the darkest pieces I've done in a long time, and definitely the noisiest. And when I mean noise, I do not mean that negatively. There was a whole lot of stimulation in this, and I did a lot of playing with the turntable as well, going fast and slow and backwards, etc.
2. Kill Memory Crash: Wow I didn't know I would like this so much. This is beautiful. I want all of it.
3. Rammstein: I love me some Rammstein. This takes me back to high school. I'll have you know I had the speakers turned up as loud as I could stand in the station. 

Lady Be Bad:

1. Goldman: I'm sorry for anyone who liked this, but this is really not my bag. I also think it kind of put the show in a weird lull. What do you think?
2.  Towa Tei: Eh. This was OK. I have a fairly neutral opinion of Towa Tei after I grabbed a bargain CD at the WFMU Record Fair, so maybe I need to reassess my opinions to be unbiased...
3. Freeze Puppy: This wasn't as good as the cover led me to believe, with it's cartoon boy and cartoon boy with a cartoon frisbee playing outside. 

See you next week!
