Fuck ICE, fuck Israel, fuck every ghoul supporting genocide & murder. When I worked at Tower in San Francisco 1987-89, this was by far my favorite hip hop album. This & Kathy Acker's Great Expectations put me on the path I haven't strayed from since. OG 89 promo copy found in DC
January 25, 2026 at 2:42 AM
I've always wanted to hear this LP with the super-dramatic cover and look! Here we are! Worth the wait for this no-skip LP. Kim Jiyeon & The Revival Cross, My Heart Is Wavering (Cobrarose Records + Beatball 2018 RE of Asia Record 1974 OG). Sample track: youtu.be/t6gUgtQTMOE?...

No getting around playing this CERTIFIED(TM) banger on tomorrow night's show. Cheikha Remitti, Yakhti Yakhti b/w Goudi Maaya Ya Touila (Edition Atlas, date u/k). The cover art gives the impression that the 45 comes with a free dress pattern. (It doesn't.) www.wfmu.org/playlists/sh...
January 21, 2026 at 1:18 AM
Ripping more records for tomorrow's all-Algerian, all-vinyl show. Les Djinns, Nesthel b/w Nadia (Sudiphone, date u/k). The A & B sides of this were included on Sublime Frequencies's terrific 1970's Algerian Folk and Pop
January 21, 2026 at 1:10 AM
Found a sealed copy of this mind-blowing legendary TB-303-powered proto-acid house super-grail today: Charanjit Singh, Synthesizing: Ten Ragas To A Disco Beat (Bombay Connection, 2010 RE of 1982 HMV OG). I've heard MP3s, but never vinyl and it's outstanding. youtu.be/sB4RYBpwV0A?...
January 19, 2026 at 10:57 PM
God Tier 45 RPM record: Rachid et Fethi, Ana-Ghrib b/w Habit-En Ïch (Editions Rallye, 1976). Ripping now for this coming week's show www.wfmu.org/playlists/sh...

This is Renee Good.

She was a mother of a six-year-old child.

She was an American citizen.

She described herself as a “poet and writer and wife and mom and shitty guitar strummer from Colorado.”

And she was gunned down in cold blood and broad daylight by Trump’s ICE agents.

Noisy compared to 2020 RE, but the sound & cover images on this OG are crisper, punchier. Racionais MC's, Raio X Brasil - Liberdade De Expressão (Zimbabwe, 1993). Sometimes love for faves fades; I've been listening to these guys for over a decade & it just grows with every listen
December 21, 2025 at 3:34 PM
First listen to this legendary LP. Sweet baby Jesus in the manger this is good. Caetano Veloso s/t (Philips, 1969). I'm gonna have to go back and read his autobio again. Lanny Gordin's guitar! "Alfomega"! Mind-blowing

The work that must have gone into this project is mind-boggling. Tehrangeles Vice: Iranian Diaspora Pop 1983-1993. 2XLP, copious photos & liner notes inside the gatefold & 24-page book, plus lyrics. Congrats to Discotchari & everyone else involved in this timely, necessary, thrill-packed release!
