..there’s a pinch of the Sisyphean doing this thing everyday… so why do it? cuz, i gotta! when it comes right down to it, it’s for me, not you. the fact you’re out there is a bonus.i’m that guy two stalls down from the guy shoeing horses , right next to the print shop, handcrafting segues
it’s a tangy selection of oddments and antiques tossed in a light audio dressing with fresh and pickled studio to turntable, local produce and imports from the music stands of the world… by a fellow with nothing better to do everyday. and i mean that in the best of ways. meet me at the einstein-rosen
somewhere where notes aren’t exactly notes…that nuanced thing called the quarter tone…somewhere near the beat but not quite ,an off beat thing called syncopation…simultaneous improvisation …vamping…tradin’ eights…that’s frank and me…it’s jazz , really. the allison transmission-made fresh daily cygnusradio.com Kid A The Punch Brothers Tom Sawyer (feat. Chris Thile) Brad Mehldaur Frankieee rev.1 Live Through
HUH?, that marvelous palindrome of a word shows up in most human languages. (I swear I’ve heard dogs say it too) and in terms of reactions to this freeform radio style vanity project, if you say HUH? at least once in my two hours ,i’ll consider my job done for the day. the allison transmission-made

Isaac Asimov said: “The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not ‘Eureka!’ but ‘That’s funny…’.” that’s why here I leave the mistakes in. it’s not what I’m looking for that necessarily makes my day, it’s often the unexpected. when one thing leads to another expectations are limitations
