My magic irreplacable Touchstream keyboard got taken out by static. I can barely type now that I have to press the keys down.

Please, somebody find me a new Touchstream.

And 1 minute!

[orthogonality, that sucks about your keyboard.]

And we're on.

The B52s - Devil In My Car .... In honor of my automotive tribulations yesterday.

this clem snide cover is excellent!

Damn I've forgotten how much I love Clem Snide's cover of "Beautiful".

Amberglow!!! You didn't tell me you were here.

If no one stops me I usually play "Dry The Rain" about 4 or 5 times in a row in my car. I'll try not to do that to you guys. I don't usually do that with songs, just this one, for some reason.

Warren Zevon - Excitable Boy
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JONMC!

Pitty Sing - WE'RE ON DRUGS
In honor of my current state of mind while I DJ for you.

Got some mashups coming in a few minutes.

Thank you, although my birthday won't be official till about 5pm tommorrow. Leave it to me to be born during happy hour.

Here's some hip hop for you.

Nice mix, matildaben.

Box!!! I loved your mix the other night.

For anyone new to this thread, I'm over on #metachat IRC if you want to chat.

Aww, thanks, matildaben. I'm simultaneously contemplating doing another a-z mix (maybe jazz or hip-hop this time) and challenging other Mecha broadcasters to try a-z themselves.

Box, if you want me to hop off, just holler. I've been on for a while and I'm just hogging at this point.

I'd love to answer the challenge. That would totally rock. Do an FPP about it.

Out Hud - Dear Mr. Bush There Are Over 1000 Words For Shit And Only 1 For Music. Fuck You Out Hud
I don't really know this song, I just like the title.

Heehee--Mecha radio challenges. I think folks would be into it. Now I've got to rush off to rip some Quincy Jones and John Zorn.

I'm just going to keep playing until I get kicked off.

Ooh, Alice Coltrane. She'd be a good jazz A. I was thinking Albert Ayler.

Amberglow!!! You didn't tell me you were here.

Shh...not so loud--hangover ; >

oh, play Sugarcubes--Birthday for all of us, if you have it?

Sorry, Amberglow, I'd have to rip that from CD and I can't rip and play at the same time (processor issues). I'll remember that for next time.

here you go

yay nick drake!

Box, or anyone else, I'm going to stay on here until you kick me off. Let me know if you wanna go!

I think you're doing swell.

matildaben, I think you should go for the record.

matildaben, good set.

Are you done for the night, matildaben? I don't want to kick you off.
