The Brainstorm Radio Show 04/09/23

Hello, dedicated followers of strange sounds.
This week on The Brain Storm is dedicated to improvisational and experimental music. Musicologists believe that these music genres originated in Europe and New Orleans. The former came from the Roman Catholic church and their use of chants and polyphony in their songs, and the latter with the development of the earliest jazz performances in the late 19th century.
Here are a couple of gleamed paragraphs that might pique your interest in these genres.
mprovisational music is expressing yourself freely within a musical piece of music and not following an established manner of playing that piece. It is creatively playing without or with less restraint and allowing for more expression from the individual. To improvise in music helps sharpen creativity as an exercise or relaxation technique.
Experimental music is notable for its tendency to abandon the traditional structure of rhythm, melody, timbre, and tempo in place of either improvisation or deconstructive intent. Because of this, experimental music is frequently confused with avant-garde music; the key distinction, however, can be found in the innovative nature of avant-garde music, while experimental music usually is characterized by its playfulness and discovery without intent.
I've added a couple of pieces from Ure Thrall and Ramona/Dusty/Mr. Lee who were plying their unearthly tones in Houston in the 80s. Hats off to David Dove who has been a great instigator of all things improvisational and experimental currently in Houston. And to the many artists involved locally who make this scene a burgeoning one.
Don't forget to donate to KPFT if you like this type of programming, oh, and tell them The Brainstorm sent you.

Hi, all.
Here are some schpooky sounds to accompany your Samhain celebrations. As we contemplate all that has left our mortal plane and give reverence to the spirit world and the great unknown, I leave you with these musical pieces that may or may not communicate our thoughts and solidarity.
Please consider making a tax-deductible gift to KPFT.org to assist in the dreary task of keeping the lights on and be comforted that you've helped our radio station persevere in this ever-changing and hostile media climate.

Yo, Y'all.
I've corralled some compositions that lean towards the experimental genre this week. Coming from Houston, my hometown, is Ak'chamel, Mantis, and David Dove & Joe McPhee. They are just some of the great sounds you'll be listening to soon.
Thanks for your listening and undying support......It matters.

Hi, y'all.
This week Dr. Dan and I have collaborated on a very cool soundtracks-only show. Originally live orchestras or in-house pianists performed alongside a film. They say that the reason for that was twofold - a way to mask the din of the projectors and to immerse the audience in the action by fusing sound and image.
When talkies arrived on the scene in the 1930s it allowed filmmakers to add composers to the mix and write music for a particular film. Max Steiner was the first to do this with the release of King Kong.
We've chosen some iconic and some obscure titles to give you a taste of how our musical minds work. Enjoy.

Welcome to this week’s episode of The Brain Storm. Thank you for the donations that got us through our latest fundraiser and keep the fires a burnin’.  As I like to mix the old with the new, the mundane with the profane, and the groovy with the glissando, the pathways to nirvanic sounds are always nearby.
Here are some of the artists I recently became familiar with……
The Puds
Celine Dessberg
Miranda Spatula and Nowhere Flower
Ali Omar
Der Expander des Fortschritts
Liasons Dangereuses
Twinset
Ivan the Tolerable
Spinnen
Ocrilim
And many more

Salutations et Joyeux Noël.
Here are 100 holiday tracks to help chillax your Christmas season. I've got a decades long tradition of creating offbeat and unusual setlists for the holidays. I started out creating cassettes as gifts and that has morphed into broadcasting them on KPFT 90.1 and digitally. I thought I'd get back to basics this year and create a shown that most folks will appreciate. I'm not announcing artists and tracks this year, so you won't get anything but the music. 
Here's to all y'all and may your holidays be love-filled and festive.
