The Importance of Coming Home

We finally finished our binaural microphones, so we had to go out and record something. These cuts are from the Chauncey-Village area on October 26h, 2008, the Saturday of Homecoming that year.

To get the full effect of these recordings, please listen with a pair of headphones.

My setup gets caught on the back of a guy’s shirt. Almost ripped the gear out of my hands.

I sit on a bench, taking in the crisp night air.

We also did something a bit different for this show. Instead of the music stopping in the opening, we let it run through the entire show. As with our efforts before, all of this music is available under some kind of public license. You can download all of the tracks at the links above.

Questions:

  1. Jobs. What are you views?
  2. Use as many adjectives, adverbs, and verbs to describe the market.
  3. How do you twitter, plurk, or pownce?
  4. Is it time for some campaignin’?

Empty Futon Splash Poop

When is there going to be an update?

Where are you Empty Futon? No updates on the Facebook group. WHERE ARE YOU!

We’re sad, so we strummed out this song. Enjoy!

The First and Only Episode of Live! From Planet Zok

We finally have edited down the first and only episode of Live! From Planet Zok.

The opening is a little strange. The training for Purdue’s Student Radio consisted of standing behind someone who was controlling the board and SAM program saying, “Here’s Deck A. Here’s Deck B. Drop stuff here. Make a playlist. Be sure to turn it on auto when you are done. Blah. Blah. Blah.” So we had no idea what was happening. Luckily, we figured it out. Enjoy!
