Low End Theory

Apr 13, 2022 8:00 AM – 10:00 AM

ZBC Rock

With DJ Ouroboros

Welcome to Low End Theory. If I were to describe the aesthetics of Low End Theory as a musical territory or space, its borders would be provided by doom/stoner/psych metal on one side, contemporary prog and prog metal on another, experimental/electronic/folk on a third, and enclosed finally by the long arc of classic and contemporary post-punk that bends towards dub. The mission of this radio show is to conjure a farrago of heavy sonic fictions of sound, words, and music appropriate and fitting to the heaviness of the times. But fear not, this Low End Theory is not dour or depressing; on the contrary, we seek out the joyful and ecstatic in the acoustic depths of the low end’s vibrating, pulsing heart. And who among us does not need some joy anchored in the deep sonority of the low end, especially now?

Good morning, ZBC world!

Good Morrow DJO!

What a start to the how!

show,,,

Good morning, JC! When I selected this song you are precisely the audience I had in mind ;)

yes...good mourning

Good morning, Rick!

im flatterred

I wish there were more covers of early Floyd like this one

The Wet Leg girls have a very special gift

The production on this song is just superb

camper van beethoven does a pretty good interstallar overdrive.

I completely forgot about that. Thanks for the reminder

Goog morning

And a very googly morning to you, Saginaw :)

i quite like this somali yacht club

They are most excellent. They are Ukrainian, but currently hanging out in the Pacific Northwest

fontaines show looks to sell out in bstn, up trnto? Just Mustard on the bill here… mornin!

did they escape Somalia because they could w/ their yachts?

likewise the Ukrainian?

They will likely sell out here as well, which reminds me to by my tix today!

Morning, PMC!

Looking forward to listening to last night's Wicked Mindful later today :)

he rebelled...they crucified him...he came back to rebel some more...helluva show

There is an encore this coming weekend, I hear

"The man in the back has quesions"

we were warned

Oops

Easter bunny

I actually did manage to find the album on Discogs eventually

screaming king bastard

survival of the richest

Morning all...I did listen to the entire wet leg this week. The production is terrific..They sound a lot better recorded than live.

Morning, Peter. It really is a fine album as a whole

Much better than I expected based on their live set...

Hi, y’all. I’m up early today. Good show, Andrew. Thanks for digging out the Echo Peel Session.

I, for one, had not heard those sessions, incredibly

Me neither. It sounded like the live shows back in the early years at the Paradise and the Channel which I thought were the peak of their live performances.

I agree. I have vivid memories of the Channel show for the Porcupine Tour

RT....

Yeah, I found my way to a Russian new/culture site this morning looking for news about Lucidvox and it was pretty clear how much Putin is controlling the narrative of the war in Russia

Lots of stories about how Russia is going about beating the sanctions

MSNBC...see?

I really do want to see Killing Joke one more time before Jaz leaves this mortal coil

NATO show

empire maintenance organizations

Hey LowEnders.. just saying "hi". That Algiers song sounded like it could have been sung by the son of Eyeless in Gaza's Martyn Bates..

holy Wednesday bat man..thanks for getting hump day under way

Eyeless in Gaza! Now that's aband I need to dig out of my vinyl archves

And with Elder the show will draw to a close. Thanks for joining!

in Palestine they see white supremacy

great show, DJO!

listening forward to your show
