The Show: This is the other side, I’m crying

Starting today with one of our favourite Cabaret Voltaire songs “Yashar“, the first of their tunes to use the “70 billion people of Earth, where are they hiding?” Outer Limits sample.

It was later re-purposed for a 90’s electronica compilation, “Happy Land” culminating, this week, in bewilderment for one or two unsuspecting Taylor Swift fans…

 

The online world needs little excuse for a mash-up, so the Cabaret Voltaylors have already begun.

And on with the show…

The Show: Joe Frank RIP

The inspiration behind Chris Morris’ Bluejam?

Is it possible to write a sincere eulogy for a person whose existence you weren’t even aware of before they died? That’s the position we find ourselves in with Joe Frank. Lauded this week in many of the podcasts we listen to, we’ve now had a crash course in his surreal and sardonic monologues. For anyone wanting to embark on that same course, there is a Joe Frank documentary, completed before his death, due out this year.

In other audio related news, DPRK’s Moranbong Band make their debut on today’s show in light of their forthcoming PyeongChang 2018 Winter Olympics appearance. Widely thought to be a gesture designed to ease tensions on the Korean peninsula, the fate of our entire civilisation rests upon the reception to their bombastic mangling of extra-cheesy 80’s pop. May God help us all.
