I literally have crates of cassettes of shows I recorded while I was a DJ at WMFO. And all of them are unlabeled. I’m slowly making my way through them, digitizing them and uploading them to Mixcloud. Since none of the cassettes are labeled I can only upload parts of shows but today’s show is the rare exception! I found both cassettes of my show with guests Daniel Orlansky and Zack Sherzad perfuming on the didgeridoo, which was very big in the mind 1990s. So get ready to go an an audio walkabout into dreamtime. And of course your usual freeform mix of music from dub to exotica.

September 9, 1995 [Part 1] | WMFO 91.5 FM

I hate to keep patting myself on the back but these shows from (almost) 10 years ago are great! A couple tracks from Taratino’s Dusk Till Dawn soundtrack, some dub from King Dub, hip hop from Ice Cube and Boogie Down Productions, mournful epicness from Swans—your usual swinging freeform mix from yours truly. My timing was a little off on some of the segues, so there’s a flaw for you? See, not all perfect.

It gives me a perverse sense of pleasure that my old cassettes of my shows deejaying at WMFO have been digitized and having a second life on Mixcloud. If you’re enjoying the shows, why not share them with a friend who also has excellent taste in music.

Step back into the Wayback Machine as we travel to August 5, 1995! Let me pat myself on the back by telling you how proud I am of the selection of tracks and segues in this show. I’m all over the place but through the magic of segues it all hangs together.

The freeform force is strong with this show: some folk music from Eckert Rinde, some ragtime from the Crumb soundtrack, some jams from Zappa, some electronica and some dub and more, of course.

I’m really digging these old shows of mine. Hearing myself talk is embarrassing but good blog, the music is fantastic! I’m glad I can share them with you on Mixcloud.

Another typical freeform mix, which instantly makes it better than 99% of the crap you hear on the radio. Not so much because I’m the DJ but because the music I selected didn’t come from a spreadsheet that made bean counters happy. Besides, who even listens to radio anymore when you can listen to exactly what you want when you want? So kick back and listen to the jams and enjoy your weekend!

Today the Wayback Machine is set for September 17, 1994. DJ Cruz from Ed O.G. and Da Bulldogs was my guest and he spun a mix of hip hop gems. Cruz even waxed psychedelic with some Jimi Hendrix and—bonus—a live performance from Street Level! There might even have been a dancehall chantreuse but my memory is kind of hazy. Enjoy!

November 5, 1993 | WMFO 91.5 FM

The Wayback Machine takes us way, way back to November 5, 1993. At the time I was into hardcore and punk like any angry young man from the early 90s. Even so, I still had sensitive, melancholy side to me. I was inspired to put together a show where you could turn off the lights, burn a candle and paint your nails black and tell your friends “I’d tell you what I’m feeling but—sigh—you wouldn’t understand.”

The first and last 15 minutes of the show are kind of muffled. When I digitized the original cassette the show was recorded on I discovered those parts of the show were actually playing backwards. I’m not quite sure what happened but it was easy enough to restore those sections to play properly, if muffled.

Secondly, I used a voice modulator during the show and it sounds terrible. I don’t know what compelled me to commit to it but it sounds terrible and for that, I apologize.
