UpMS Flight 02 (they're fake)

A public disservice by UpMoon Station, framed by dissonant choral stylings of Andrea Long-Chu’s introduction to Females: A Concern, which opens with “Everyone is female—and everyone hates it.” We, unfortunately, agree.

UpMS Flight 03 (failed femmes)

Another twirbly aural clusterfuck rolled in magical sparkles and self-induced technical difficulties featuring Ariana "A.I." Grande in two swirly appearances amidst a crever of terror àla TNG's Riker MANeuver puppet master, Jon Frakes. Stick around for a 4-layer cake cover of "Money (That What I Want)," the aforementioned sparkles, new deeper clicks™, and a roll of d.j. again remixes.

Our sky cries chorally with our flame impacted folks in the area, from our blessed friend and airtime benefactor The Unwrinkled Ear outward.

Oli Hazzard, Maria Sledmere, Rosa Campbell, and Nat Raha - Language Garden - 2025-03-29

In 1970s Burma, a quietly innovative music scene emerged during a time of increasing political isolation and state censorship. Despite limitations, local artists found creative freedom through cassette culture, using tape as a tool to explore and share a rich blend of sounds—traditional Burmese melodies interwoven with the influences of Western rock, soul, and psychedelic music. Many musicians engaged in copy thachin, adapting foreign songs with new Burmese lyrics, creating something both familiar and entirely their own. My Final Answer to Life, compiled by Gary Sullivan (Bodega Pop) for Radio Is a Foreign Country, offers a glimpse into this era through a selection of tracks from 1970 to 1978—music that reflects a culture in motion, reshaping outside influences into something deeply personal and resonant. Selected & mixed by Gary Sullivan (Bodega Pop).
