These posts contain a log of playlists for the weekly Free Form Freakout show.
Here’s how things went down on the Thursday show over the past three weeks. David was on his own for episodes #401 & #402, and on this week’s show we were joined in the studio by Chad, a longtime KMSU supporter and honorary member of the Jandek Study Group. Included below are some audio and…
Aside from the usual weather-related grumblings, February has been a rather fun-filled month for us here at Free Form Freakout: we celebrated our 9th year of doing the weekly Thursday show, we put together what we hoped would be an all-inclusive Valentine’s Day-themed show, and we found in Blank Realm’s Grassed Inn an album we…
On this week’s show, we played a few tracks centered around some current and upcoming events: the passing of free jazz legend Arthur Doyle, the recent reissue of The Viktor Dimisch Band’s output, and an upcoming live appearance by Loop in the Twin Cities in April. Carl felt compelled to launch into his first Guilty…
Another week, another show, and, yes, we were still grumbling about the weather in our customary Minnesota fashion. Carl tried to trick himself and others into a warm weather state-of-mind by playing songs about summer and all things hot. David broke out some rockers and some Maher Shalal Hash Baz, who always has a way…
Last week, we mentioned we were dealing with sub-zero temperatures; this week, it was blizzard-like conditions that actually prevented Carl from making it up to the radio station. David tried to hold down the fort, spinning some favorites both new and old. Though long overdue, it felt like the right time to play something from…
Well, we survived the polar vortex of death with our fingers and ears intact, and we sure hope you were able to do the same. Our playlist for today’s show, though unintentional, seemed to capture the flux of lethargy and pent-up energy that sets in after spending several days hunkered down inside. The new Black…
During the first half of this week’s show, David spun some of his recent acquisitions from over the holidays, where he put his gift cards to good use to grip the 45th Anniversary Deluxe Edition of the Velvet Underground’s seminal White Light/White Heat album and Captain Beefheart’s lost classic Bat Chain Puller, amongst other used bin…
As is often the case when David does the weekly show on his own, he’ll break out some ridiculously lengthy numbers to avoid babbling on about record labels, personnel, and release dates that few people could give a rip about. This time around it was an epic 19-minute piece from the Swedish free jazz big…
On this week’s show, we spun some more gems from the Australian underground in anticipation of the forthcoming release from Blank Realm. Carl also brought in a box of dusty 45’s that he recently uncovered while cleaning out the basement of Tune Town. Yes, there was theme music from a certain hot dog manufacturer played…
