Tetsuo’s Atomic Lounge

I had mentioned in a recent post, about a music group I was once part of forming. Actually there have been a few others. So anyways I dug around and found the only set of photo’s from what was the era of “Tetsuo’s Atomic Lounge”.

Sigh.. look how sexy we were……… from l to r : Miss Diva Mary (Mariko), Dj Brat (Everet), Miss Julie, and Dj SunKing (me).

I’d say, this would be around Aug of 1997. Yeah I’m a bit older then y’all think I am. Everet and I had already form a deejay squad called the “Acid Babies”. I was neighbors with Julie who had introduced me to a lot of indi post rock music like Stereolab, Pizzicato Five and the like. Mariko, was foregn University student, I knew who had also introduced me to a lot of the same kind of music and was a rave dancer. There was a lot of experimentation going on during those wild time, creatively, musicly, sexually, …drug-ly…

As far as I know, if we did record anything with this line up, it’s gone.. or to be more specific I don’t have it. What I do have are these pics that you see some of here. The ideas behind flood back when I see these. We had all sorts of borrowed equipment.. sond bords hooked into dat machines, digital samplers, cd player, turntables, moog organ, one of those yellow issued for the blind , casset players, which allowed you to alter the speed of a tape, reverse it etc. I would record samples of many diffrent sounce material and edit onto a tape. Yeah, we were crazy at the time.. Our own little punk rock dyi, trippy art music crew.

P5 Tokyo: It Is The Happy Cool!

In Stereo Sound.

Looking back in re-exploring some of my more selfish pleasures in music form the mid-late 1990’s. One such was “Pizzicato Five”. P5 was a breakout outfit from Japan that manged to make a splash here in the N. America. Mod J-Pop deejay dance, jazzy, r&b, happy music. Sampling a lot of US records fronted my a model like singer. Maki Nomiya and Yasuharu Konishi.

P5 Wikipedia.

So what if 60 percent was in Japanese, it really doesn’t matter when you’re jamming out to the beats.

It’s the 4th ya Commies!!!!!

Fourth of July Old Time Radio Shows

Happy Fourth of July from OTRCAT.com! “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” Independence Day is a United States federal holiday celebrating the Declaration of Independence which was adopted on July 4th, 1776. The Declaration of Independence officially declared Independence from Great Britain and that terrible tax on tea. The Fourth of July is now celebrated in America today with parades, fireworks, carnivals, and good bar-b-que with family and friends. You Are There – (Drama) “July 4th, 1776 Philadelphia” from March 21, 1948 You are there for the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4th, 1776 in Philadelphia. The heat is unbearable and even worse is the horseflies. The Founding Fathers are interviewed as well as some of the dissenters who are against Independence—who will win?

The Daisy Wheel

This new little doc recently appeard in my youtube subscriptions. It’s all about the New Daisy theatere in Memphis on Beale Street. Followers of this blog will be fimiliar with the name.

Located on historic Beale Street, the New Daisy Theater has been the venue for hundreds of great shows from up-and-coming artists who have outgrown small clubs but are not yet ready to fill arenas. The Daisy has also been supportive of local bands, particularly metal and roots rockers, whose grateful fans fill the hall. The New Daisy has hosted sports such as boxing and wrestling, and in 2001 briefly returned to its roots as a movie theater by hosting screenings for the Indie Memphis Film Festival.

And yes, there is an Old Daisy Theater—it’s a historic, century-old venue located right across Beale Street from the New.
