Magic Junk Radio 14: Brain Smoke

April 28th, 2009 Mark Sahm 4 comments

Your first roller coaster ride was an experience all its’ own. But by the eleventh time you went on, it was fun but had lost a little luster. This is the comparison that we keep reciting to ourselves every time we start a new podcast— let’s get on a different ride this time, and try something new.

Of course, life loves to get in the way like a herd of sheep on a back road. Then we tend to lean on our comforts. So what could be more comforting than another all-cover song episode? Truth be told, we both enjoyed our previous all-cover episode #9, and had originally planned for #13 and 14 to be a double podcast. But along the way, the two drifted apart in concept and here we are.

Fortunately for our tightly focused listening audience, Magic Junk Radio 14: Brain Smoke still released less than 3 weeks later. Clocking in at a smoky 32:10, MJR 14 consists of four TV themes, a late 70’s song, a late 90’s song, a classical remix, and a SW battle song to warm your heart. Be sure to leave us some feedback if you have a minute. It could help save the life of a lonely blog post. Thanks and cheers.

Magic Junk Radio 13: Hiding As Noise

April 8th, 2009 Mark Sahm 3 comments

For anyone who thought Magic Junk Radio had a definitive sound, prepare yourself. What lies behind the download link below is something completely different.

If you’ve never listened to Magic Junk Radio before, this is NOT the quintessential episode to start with (we highly recommend Episodes #8 through 12 for our bread and butter). No, this episode is our black sheep. The one that doesn’t look, or in our case sound, like the rest.

This is our first big experiment, a litmus test of where our remixing skills are at, to see how far we can push a group of nearly 100 samples. This is our DJ mix on acid. Or at least, that’s what we’ve heard. Now you can decide for yourself.

Thus, Magic Junk Radio 13: Hiding As Noise is piece of sonic art. No host segments, no singles, no breaks. This also marks the first time we’ve opted to use songs as most DJ’s do— by playing them instead of clipping a sample. Clocking in at an overindulgent 44:44, MJR 13 is best listened to on headphones, to savor the full range of sound that will no doubt rattle through your brain.

If this experiment is not your slice of pie, then fear not— Magic Junk Radio #14 will be released within a month from this podcast, where you’ll find M. Sahm and S.Rod up to their usual remixing tricks.

If you do enjoy this episode, be sure to leave us a comment if you have twenty seconds to spare. Cheers.
