Greetings from the other side of the river, here in Vancouver, WA. I like the music you're featuring in your podcasts. Though my site is geared toward the more 'accessible' side of pop and rock, I definitely dig avante-garde sounds. BTW: if you'd like to add me to your blogroll, that'll be nice and cool. I'm at Fusion 45.

I would be happy to add you to my links. My site doesn't seem to be getting very much traffic these days, but it may help you get a few more visitors. Since you are among the few who actually comment, I wanted to know what do you specifically like about the podcast- certain artists or songs, my DJ commentary, the themes, etc. Interested in specifically what you like about the podcasts. Anyway, thanks for stopping by.

Rich:

Are you the Rich from Kill Ugly Radio? If so, I check your blog every so often to see what you'v been up to. Thanks for your feedback about the podcasts? It's hard to know what you are doing right without hardly any feedback, so the feedback coming from you is much appreciated.

I had a lot of fun compiling and recording the Music Millennium podcast, because these are all musicians that I have had the privilege to know. It's really amazing to me when I realize all the talent that has graced the halls of Music Millennium. Though I don't go back often, I still have a soft spot in my heart for the place.

Best wishes to both of you!

MF DOOM: Spell his name with ALL CAPS

Image
According to sources close to the legendary rapper/producer MF DOOM, he died on 10/31/20.  His family has chosen to keep this news private until now, and the cause of death has yet to be disclosed.Below is a screenshot of the heartfelt dedication from Doom's Instagram account posted by his wife Jasmine. I am completely gutted, and am hardly able to string words together for this post. Doom's material throughout the early years as Zev Love X with KMD, to the last two decades spent with the alter egos of MF Doom, King Geedorah, Viktor Vaughan and Metal Fingers has thoroughly enriched my life. Madvillainy , his unprecedented collaboration with Madlib in 2004, will go down as one of the best records in the history of hip-hop. Doom's style is difficult to pinpoint, as he was able to rap fast with a slow, booming baritone, while delivering his lines in a cadence that was like no other before him. He made what he was doing seem effortless, but he was undoubtedly giving it his all.
