Low End Theory

Mar 23, 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 morning, Sir

Good morning, Saginaw!

Morning....

Morning, Peter!

hump day under way

Indeed it is, Rick. Welcome!

good day

Was the female folk thing Laibach?

Have you seen the trailer/reviews for the king crimson movie? Apparently the part with Bill in it is pretty moving

have you seen the R rated fripp &partner utube channel, kinda surreal… mornin!

I have seen the reviews and trailer and am waiting with bated breath to see it

Sunday Lunch from their kitchen...of course...That's his wife Toya Wilcox...Met her once...she was terrific!!!

You mean the Sunday afternoon covers that Fripp does wth Toyah Wilcox?

They are brilliant!

Good Morrow DJO and co….

They were one of my salvations during the deepest, darkest, days of the pandemic

The aforementioned Bill Rieflin was in a band with here and Fripp called the humans

Artist sues self for copyright infringement for similarity between two songs

sorry about that, been listening in the kitchen. now i'm at work after my long commute up two flights of stairs.

Morning, JB!

And good morning, JC!

Unbeknownst to you, you were an inspiration to me this morning

As I tried my hand at just in time radio production this morning, lol

uploading the show at 7:40!

yikes! Cutting it close

I know!

you can always go live from your home setup if you want.

It was thrilling and scary at the same time, lol

I think I want to try that this summer sometime, actually

just message me. P.M.C's done most of his shows live from midnight 'till 2am. Not last night though.

but he's the only one. KOTJ sometimes, but he's mostly back in studio now.

glad you were able to get it done n time. Definitely stressful.

VC, may want to try remote sometime soon.

Yeah, I don't think I will try it again. But the previous two shows were encores and I didn't want to make it three in a row, so I got up at 5 to record the show.

i foresee an afternoon nap

cheers to naps!

Oh yes

end product is a success

sunrise show

I'd like to try live remote as well at some point...but with my work schedule it's just not practical...I generally record a night or two before.

Exactly. There is no way I could do remote until the teaching term is done

Thanks you, Rick :)

Are you guys familiar with this band, Melt Yourself Down?

They are new to me but have been around for about a decade

I think they are pretty awesome

i'm not. I like this a lot

It's really lively and distinctive

A lot of interesting people from other interesting bands have passed through such as Sons of Kemet, Transglobal Underground, Fela

it is pretty cool

That was a great cut thx DJO! Last night my daughter played me a YungBlud song i actually really liked. Same tempo and feel as GenX "Dancing With Myself", but actually a much better song. Don't think I'd play it on ZBC though. I usually hate YungBlud and most of the faux punk/emo my teenage daughter likes.

don’t worry about me I don’t fit in

"faux punk/emo", lol

You are right about that, Rick ;)

I think I was one second away from great segue there, but the cat jumped on my desk and startled me, lol

it was a great segue

how was Numan last week at the Paradise? I missed it, but seems like everyone was there

😊

I saw it, thought it was great, better than last time imo

I am soooo bummed that he cancelled the Toronto show 😔

he seems to be getting more traction with his newer stuff, but played all the classics too, his band was better

what i want to hear: "show sucked, sounded like crap, you didn't miss anything" :) Instead FOMO is back.

lol

I found out the other day that Gary Numan is a few weeks older than Gary Oldman

heheh

Gary numan was fabulous...really great...

there have been so many great shows recently, missed all of them.

hahaha, thanks DJO!

FOMO! 😭

Somebody taped a whole show a couple of days ago and the video is pretty good and audio much better than usual https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksN1O0BdBGc&t=0s

Gary Numan turned 64 this month!

i like what ive heard of the new Naxatras

thanks djo...good day all

This is beautiful!

agreed!

What's up with the Ontario appeals, Jeff, lol?

Reading copy for a radio station in Hamilton. don't they have programs like food stamps in Canada? here in USA low wages means deciding between heat, rent, food, and a mobile device.

This is Black Sky Giant
