Deerhoof Tuesday, May 31st, 3pm - 6pm on Brian Turner's show After two amazing live sessions on Brian's show in 2002 and 2003, Deerhoof are back for thirds! Tune in to hear John, Greg, Satomi, and Chris once again re-write what everyone thought they knew in terms of your traditional guitar/bass/vocal/drums melodic noise-pop vocabulary, and ably demonstrate that the bridges between the Shaggs, Who, Anthony Braxton, and Caroliner aren't so far apart. But to peg the sound of Deerhoof is unfair to them and maddening in general; merely tune in and hear one of modern rock's finest at yet another creative peak! |

ah excellent! btw, i got mail from that radio station earlier, and apperantly 5 of us are on probation now and we'll have to do some further work in the next 3 weeks. i'll have to prepare couple of interviews, one gig review, one album review, one playlist and one shorter show about a certain artist or genre or something of that kind. btw, i got that test along as well, so here's that list of people we had to describe :) Roger Waters Steve Albini Alan Vega John Peel Richard D. James Ian Curtis George Martin Martin Hanett Mike Patton Mark Stewart Joe Strummer Don Cherry Chris Cutler Michael Gira Kieran Hebden Chuck D Charlie Patton Malcolm McLaren Bessie Smith Page Hamilton Mike Watt Adrian Sherwood Stefan Betke Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Jim O'Rourke Daniel Miller Genesis P.-Orridge Jimmy Garrison Thelonius Monk Greg Ginn brata Asheton Eddie Vedder Bill Laswell Allan Lomax Simon Frith.

hey, congratulations! i guess you did well, right? there's a lot of my favorites on that list there... but also plenty i have no idea about. seems like a really strenuous exam. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
damn - i couldn't write anything about 18 of those. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ahh, you'd do great!! im certain of that! hmm, let me put those other questions so you'll get the full picture :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, and i really don't know what to ask people in the interviews, that and the gig review are going to be a tough thing for me.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you were able to write stuff about all those? that's incredibly impressive. who else here could do that? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, no way! where did you get that idea :) i don't know 15 from that list :) i knew about almost all domestic poeple though..here's the list: Milan Mladenović Koja Aldo Ivančič Iztok Turk Bratko Bibič Darko Rundek Vlada Divljan DuÅ¡an Hedl Ivan Novak Miha Klemenčič Esad Babačič Primož Habič Brane Zorman Branimir Johnny Å tulić Mira Omerzel - Terlep Igor Vidmar Gregor Tomc |

i think the best interviewers understand who they are interviewing, where the artist is coming from, enough to just have a normal conversation and let it go where ever it leads them. this is usually a much more stimulating read and more interesting for the subject, who is used to getting the same five questions over and over. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
then, what do these stand for: UR IDM EBM CBGB JSBX GYBE DFA MC5 AACM FV 112/15 IASPM REM BPM ReR ELP RIO DAF DIY and these terms: sampling - be-bop - toasting - no-wave - crooklyn - air guitar |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, exactly, but since i only know most of the artist briefly that is going to be a big big problem. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

just study up a little before you meet them - definitely learn what their albums are like and the names of them. then just start them talking about music like you would with a friend. let them just start rambling, then keep asking them new questions based on what they say. then finish with my favorite question, "what was it like to know kurt cobain?" ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, and sorry for messing up the topic :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nah - this is much more interesting than a concert a week from now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
HAHA :) im not exactly sure what these interviews will look like..perhaps it's only going to be fictional..dunno where i'd get two people i'd want to interview in 3 weeks time :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
check out this guy's site: he seems like kind of an uninteresting idiot to me, but his interviews are rather good. he just becomes sort of friends with these folks and you get to read the transcripts. plus he interviews cool people. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha, fantastic! :) i'll have a good look at these, thanks! an excerpt from buzzes interview : "Oh cool! Okay, so you wanna do an interview? Yeah! Whenever you're available. How about right now? Ummm. you have time right now? Right now is really good actually. Oh! Okay. Sure! I don't have any questions though. That's okay - I don't have any answers! Fantastic! Okay, let's do it then. Alright! " :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, it's really a funny take on interviewing - he's very unprofessional. check out the one with shannon from the cows/heroine sheiks. |

"The supremacist popped out of audience and said he was gonna kill me! So I popped him with the bottom of my mic stand and he fell back into the crowd and I didn't hear anything else from him. And there was this big biker in Houston that was standing up front kinda leering at me. And you know how the audience will stop watching the show and start watching the confrontation instead. So finally I said I gotta do something about this guy, so I leaned down, grabbed him by the hair and French kissed him." -- shannon selberg |

haha :) i'll have a better look tomorrow..2.20 am and i have to get up at 8. those interviews will sure help to get an idea of what should it look like, because i don't want any of that conventional boring interviews, although perhaps the radio station has some sort of policy on this and there are certain questions that need to be asked since it's usually for an interview before the gig so i suppose it should be more about their work, to promote the artist for the upcoming gig. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, you can do it in your own style. you could borrow from some of the techniques you like and make it your own interviewing style. and you can write it up however you want. what prindle has is just the raw data, what rolling stone has is someone's pretentious essay with a few quotes. probably you should shoot for somewhere in between. ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, i'll definitelly try a combo of different techniques there.. although i doubt i'd be able to do it in an essay way with someone i know very little or nothing about :) although i think they asign you for interviews of artists you know..i hope! |

this program is starting mere hours from now! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|

||||||||

|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ect? it's not on yet. the program that will showcase them live is coming on in an hour and a half. that doesn't mean that deerhoof will be on right away, though. it might be an hour later or even two hours later. hopefully he will announce when they will start. i'll be listening just in case. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah good! i hope i'll get to hear this :) btw, ect = electroconvulsive therapy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, ECT! right, of course. :) |
||||||||
|

|
|
so he just announced they'll come on in "about an hour". it's 3:23 now... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahah... that's freeform radio - he played this mellowed out xlyophone music followed by a lovely live electric masada jam... now it's some intensely awful "hick hop". ugh... :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok - it's on right now! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
