Ub Radio: Black Asphalt

Whatever you do, DO NOT listen to this webcast (either live or in it’s archived form) while operating a slipping, sliding, skidding, rolling, crunching or otherwise moving vehicle…..

However, we do advocate & suggest “Black Asphalt” while wearing a pair of headphones in an easy chair placed safely on the side of highway.

Featuring full waitressing service by the lovely ladies of the Roadside Diner.

This night, sounds and voices brought to you by dAS, Ninah pixie, Melissa, Thomas Dimuzio, Univac, Rob Wortman

Ub Radio – Re-LAX

LIVE from the s&S studios (and the hallways in between)

Unless you have suspension bridge cable for a spine, these 3 hours uniformly left little relaxed molasses pools where loyal radio listeners once sat. There were quite a handful of relaxation coaches here in the catacombs – from whose collective fingertips flowed wavey, purple, hypnotic sine tones. Among this edition’s in-house alpha state lineup:

ninah pixie, bLevin bLectum, j Lesser, Dina Emerson, Jonathan Segel, dAS uB-kat, Jesse Burson, Rob Wortman, Cheryl E. Leonard.

ROGC: 17 Year Cicada

After 17 years of loveless, subterranian root munching, how about inviting all your swingin single pals for the biggest ‘hook-up’ party of your seemingly eternal pupal life!

Let’s make some noise!!! Yes, I realize not all of the cicadas in this episode are of the aforementioned variety…. But with all the merry-making, I don’t think anyone minded a handful of inter-species party crashers.

I’d discovered a bunch of cassette recordings online of a woman describing the month-long coming (and going) of 17 year Cicadas (Brood X) in 2004 and 1987. While her cicadas completely overloaded her recordings, her narration was what i was most attracted to… A sentimental biologist’s tone. This show was easily inspired. Insects are generally good for that.
