SOUNDWAVE : 181 : EXTREME

Today’s guest deejay is Roger Richards, the head honcho of Extreme.

Today’s show was years in the making. Decades.

Last century, I was a deejay at WMFO. I came across a lot of great things in the new bin. One day, I came across a compilation album titled X – X Section that featured tracks from musicians who explored ambient, experimental, and sheer noise. That album contained deep eddies and pulled me in. In particular, I played C-Schulz’s “Firn” over and over again. From then on, I purchased any CD that bore the Extreme label.

When I launched my electronic music show, Solipsistic Nation, I interviewed Roger and played select tracks from his label (you can listen to that show here). I got a thrill talking to the man responsible for so many of the albums I had grown to love over the years. Naturally, I had to have Roger on Soundwave. We’re all busy people, Roger especially. Still, after a couple of years, he’s agreed to come on the show and feature music from Extreme. It’s quite the mix, and I know you’re going to love it as much as I do.

If you want more Extreme music, Rob Vincs recently released his new album, Chaomorphic. If you dig the first track for this mix, then Chaomorphic is the LP for you!

Join us next week when our guest deejay will be Brueder Selke.

See you then.
