Mid-Valley Mutations vs. Radio TroUBle / Radio TroUBle vs. Mid-Valley Mutations! (Part II)
WFMU Playlist & Interactive Live Chat
Not only is this the second time that our shows have joined forces – see our previous six our epic – but this time we have new rules that keeps the show interesting, exciting, and certainly in-the-moment!
Premise: There are four DJs: pxe, das, univac & Austin. We are each playing songs, going in a circle, round robin style. This goes on for the entire six hours, natch.
However, each of us has been allowed two “wild cards,” where we can ring a bell, and institute, “Monkey Mutation Madness,” where all four of us are playing sound clips and recordings, trying to create a longer, and more dynamic, piece of radio that could only be done as a group, in person!
With eight wild cards, spread out over six hours and two streaming networks, and with all four of us looking for ways to make the game more interesting, this is one of the more chaotic – and beautiful – radio shows we’ve produced. The music mixes work really well, the Monkey Mutation Mash-Ups are brilliantly executed, and the whole six hours flew by faster than I would have liked. Combining our shows is not only a good idea, but led to getting “Radio TroUBle” on Sheena’s Jungle Room, too, and was a good decision, all around.
I look forward to more collaborations, like the one’s I get to do with Radio TroUBle!

Be Seeing You.
