right on, let me know when its available for download. i'm usually up late on monday night so i'll be tuning in. i hope you get plenty of support and listeners from peeps at your school there too, i'm not sure what the scene is like in wisco. on my college station they put the EDM DJs on at like 1-3am friday night (satuday morning) which i guess they figured was dead air time but it turned out to be just the opposite... everyone was tuning in. happy to see other college stations are supporting EDM as well :D
as far as phish goes... 98' was a great year! it was right between their 70's funk jam period (97) and their spaced out techno jam period (99). i saw my first show at a pretty young age when they came to cleveland state university in december of 95. i really didn't have any clue what i was getting into, i just went along with my cousin because he was older than me and he could get me in places. after that i was hooked, it was such a new and unique experience as far as music and the community surrounding it goes. 4 years and a bunch of shows later i did my first tour in the summer of 99, which was also my first year in college. I must say that definitely changed my life. Its weird how I can remember the exact emotions and jams that I felt from each show to this day. And I know exactly what you are talking about when you say its easy to be a fan of EDM and Jambands at the same time. I didn't hear any EDM until i was 4 years deep in the phish / jamband scene, but I had such a love for music by then it was easy for me to appreciate the EDM scene. It brought a lot of the same vibes to the table as the phish scene did. Anyways, I would have to say my favourite years are 99' first off and then 94', which was a very very tight year for them. if you need any shows, i have a bunch on my PC, just let me know. if you haven't listened to 7-23-99 (incredible ghost -> free -> 23 min birds of a feather), 6-18-94 (UIC pavillion in chicago), or 6-11-94 (red rocks ampitheatre) you should really check them out, those are among my favourite shows. Ok, well you thought your message is long... this is getting out of control... I really hope them come back and play some shows, did you make it to the last festival in coventry, vermont?
btw... never got to see the dead, i was too young. all i can do is collect their shows and video's and appreciate what they did for music at that time.
also, if you are ever planning on filling a time slot on the station with a DJ mix please feel free to ask me... I have all kinds of mixes and I would love to share... prog house to trance to dnb, i have mixes of all sorts. just let me know!
keep up the groovy mixes, i'll be tuned in! :) |
