driving back to school for the first day after break sucked but my entire trip 88.1 actually played a bunch of stuff i liked

The Pixies - where is my mind
blur - song 2
stretch arm strong - for the record
radiohead - idioteque
at the drive in - one armed scissor
iron and wine - he lays the reins
the shins - girl inform me

So basically your taste in music is so bad that it even gets in the way of your academic priorities.

3/13/2006 5:57:19 PM

Who is the new DJ?

Aha^

3/13/2006 5:57:42 PM

ha, seems kind odd for one armed scissor to be played after idioteque

3/13/2006 5:58:03 PM

^ exactly. but it was good because thats how i am

^^^ yea ok, lets see what you listen to
and you based my musical taste on a list of 7 songs. 3 of which i dont even own any music of or am i a huge fan of but for being on the radio it wasnt bad.
and yea it got in the way of my priorities that i was 5 minutes early intead of 15.

if youre gonna come in here and say that someone who listens to the pixies and radiohead had bad taste in music you need to get out of the entertainment section

3/13/2006 6:13:43 PM

it was the computer playing that, it was already programed.

i started my shift around 11:15. Thats when the shit hit the fan.

3/13/2006 6:25:26 PM

aha i was about to say, that set sounded like "DJ Automation"

3/13/2006 6:39:54 PM

One Armed Scissor is my fav At the Drivein song.

That is a good list of songs.

3/13/2006 6:41:19 PM

i agree.

3/13/2006 7:08:43 PM

i would have to nominate star slight for ATDI's best song

3/13/2006 7:23:22 PM

"blur - song 2"

haha

3/13/2006 7:24:27 PM

lol. i just remember that song being in like FIFA98 and getting stuck in my head back in the day, was fun to hear it again

3/13/2006 7:35:11 PM

looks like your average bland college radio playlist. i'm not saying those aren't good songs, though.

3/13/2006 11:22:43 PM

why don't you play something by an artist that people fucking know instead of shit that nobody knows who the fuck they are?

3/13/2006 11:25:46 PM

except i see you did play metallica. good job on that one song.

3/13/2006 11:26:08 PM

EVERY TIME I DIE

3/13/2006 11:26:33 PM

because the point of 88.1 is to play non-mainstream stuff. you can turn to any other radio station and hear top 40.

3/13/2006 11:28:13 PM

I PLAY MUSIC FOR SMATH ONLY AND IT LOOKS LIKE I FUCKED UP!

3/13/2006 11:31:22 PM

I've heard of all of those bands mentioned. Don't know what you listen to..

3/13/2006 11:34:29 PM

i was attempting sarcasm, ok?

i like 88.1 because it plays stuff i normally wouldn't listen to, but enjoy.

3/13/2006 11:36:01 PM

aha, well wknc does play top 40

it just aint g105 top 40

if you listen to the station enough, you'll hear the same sort of repeat radio format, just different songs

i love wknc to death, but it is repeat radio

but that's the nature of radio listeners

[Edited on March 13, 2006 at 11:38 PM. Reason : sad]

3/13/2006 11:36:18 PM

is it? i guess i just don't recognize the songs as often.

3/13/2006 11:39:48 PM

Holy shit, Hell Below/Stars Above is with Elliot Smith?

I love both of them, but I couldn't imagine a collaboration.

whatever happened to the Toadies?

3/13/2006 11:40:14 PM

except they used to play that song that started with that guy sounding like a monkey "oooh wah ah ah ahhh"

3/13/2006 11:40:23 PM

most the time I play similar stuff every week but mainly b/c im too lazy to make some cds with different stuff. Maybe I will do that next week.

3/13/2006 11:41:28 PM

if you listened to wknc every day like i do

you'd know to expect 'of montreal' to be played at least once every 2 hours

and that the kids call up every day to request "the fight club song"

[Edited on March 13, 2006 at 11:42 PM. Reason : r]

3/13/2006 11:42:05 PM

it seems like there is always a song we play way too much. When I was a freshman we played "New year" by death cab every hour and i fuckin hated it.

3/13/2006 11:43:22 PM

i just don't see a reason why they can't mix in some random parliament, animals or robert johnson or whatever in an hour


oh you mean

THIS IS THE NEW YEAR

CRASH CRAAAASH

AND I DON'T BLAH BLAH

Bigfatsack played King Crimson - 21st Century Skitzoid man......made my day

and i blew the spelling on skitzoid. marko listen next monday and i will play some interesting stuff.

3/13/2006 11:48:18 PM

haha, they moved from CRASH CRASH to BADABABABADABABA of Soul meets Body

3/13/2006 11:48:33 PM

i'll try and listen

send me a pm to warn me ahead of time

3/13/2006 11:51:13 PM

dude, ddeeznutterntzzzz, i like your taste in music. for serious.

3/14/2006 12:25:44 AM

haha this is funny. it wasn't the automated DJ fyi. It was me!

this was my first day of DJ class where I was able to play around on air. Jay w/ red hair is my instructor and he is a darn good teacher.

blur - song 2
stretch arm strong - for the record
radiohead - idioteque
at the drive in - one armed scissor

those were the 4 songs I selected to play. the rest was all jay. I just combed through the library and picked out some songs I really liked. I played blur song 2 first because that was the first tape I ever bought.

I am glad someone enjoyed my random selections haha. I can't wait until I am passed off and can get my own little show! Oh the fun to be had!

PS: Racebannon ruled all last night.

3/14/2006 12:29:19 AM

It is to some degree repeat radio, but that's good for people like me who don't get much otherwise exposure to non-mainstream radio. Some of the songs on there that I really like grew on me over hearing them a few times.

Though there is stuff that gets overplayed. Whoever keeps playing "Dance Music" by the Mountain Goats, please stop.

3/14/2006 12:34:48 AM

^you have 8(88.1) posts!

wknc!

3/14/2006 12:43:03 AM

this monday sucked

next monday is when my show will rock

3/14/2006 1:35:36 AM

Props to CDeezntz, "Running the Gauntlet" kicks ass.

3/14/2006 1:42:24 AM

yea thats a hot list of music CDeezntz

3/14/2006 2:12:07 AM

i've requested a few songs in the past weeks, and it seems that either 1) your stuff is horribly organized so that dj's can't find it. 2) the dj's are liars and are actually just lazy and don't look for stuff or 3) your selection of "college radio" music is abysmally bad

i had to go through 5 or 6 songs before the dj could find something they had.

and only the first of these is usually even somewhat obscure. the rest every college radio station should have.

3/14/2006 2:45:42 AM

Keep in mind that people steal shit from KNC on a regular basis.

3/14/2006 2:57:51 AM

they could at least load the shit on some big hard drives

3/14/2006 3:03:15 AM

anybody that plays blur is cool with me

when i make requests, i try to request things i know knc has...especially if it's in dj automation.

i used to work there, i know what they have and what they don't

i ask human dj and they're like "yeah, i'll see if i can find it"

it ain't hard- pepe deluxe is under P and lansing-drieden is under L

i know you have it

3/14/2006 11:20:15 AM

ha well what did you request?

3/14/2006 12:07:18 PM

something with a foppish beat to it

3/14/2006 12:21:50 PM

that stretch cd is a great one

schneider tm

foppish beat or no, any dj at knc who hasn't heard of schneider tm needs to be taught a lesson

3/14/2006 3:49:43 PM

3/14/2006 4:34:45 PM
