Another themed podcast this week. This week we are going to be doing story songs, or songs that tell a story. We live lives that are stories in themselves, although the never-ending story, or rather eventually it ends but Gabe won’t be around to see the credits, but there sure are a wide range of story songs, from first person story of my life sort of thing, to third person, to back and forth dialogue, and we explore them in traditional british folk, country western, soul music and on the whole a lot of sad songs, though sometimes these tears aren’t tears of sorrow, but tears of joy at some absurd rendition of another’s suffering, from death row to blindness to those who are checking out when others are checking in. She was supposed to be at home minding the kids, but alas she was at the motel. Gabe and Malcolm argue about whether Famous Blue Raincoat qualifies as a story song, and then of course, there’s our own story, Twilight at the Lady Jane Grey College for Little Ladies, still running with episode 22 this week, in which you’ll find demon possession on all sides and a tryst interrupted midcoitus, and for Book You! this week Gabe reads from a collection of short stories by George Saunders called In Persuasion Nation.
Even More Majestic: A Review of Big Trouble in Little China
Maarten Schiethart
Originally published by Penny Black Music 04.25.2009
Named after the 19th century Hungarian composer, the Liszts, however, are a combo singing in both Mandarin and English alike. Their diction and phrasing give away an American heritage and while (obviously I cannot account for having any detection quality when the language in question originates from a country I have never been to) also that of China. As foreign as that may all seem, the Liszts deal in rather familiar ethics. And before you even became aware of it, the Liszts embrace sounds that one would not be able tell apart from that of other established indie rock or college radio starlets, so let us forget about any exotic ethnicity for once.

What up?
In your headphones, in your speakers, in your heart, we play music. This week is dedicated to hip hop, so if you don’t like the rap music you might want to skip this week, but if you do, you might want to turn it up! For this week on Book You, Gabe reads from I Paid My Dues by Babs Gonzales. Gabe wants to send his throat to its room without dinner. We would like to put out a disclaimer this week, some listener discretion is advised.
The Mutable Radioshow is a weekly spot in which Misters Felder and Boyer play their favorite melodies from years gone by, as well as a few new tunes from out the library. Topics are discussed, such as what is there to hate? A new episode of Twilight at the Lady Jane Grey College for Little Ladies is aired each week.
Recorded entirely at Mutable Sound Studios, this weekly adventure into sound will also feature new Mutable Sound acts you have just been dying to hear! As well as the squiggly sounds of yesteryear.

A Survey of my Failures This Far
in Product
Boyer’s influences range from William Faulkner to David Lynch, from Hunter S. Thompson to Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Jorge Luis Borges. A Survey of My Failures this Far, his third book to be released through Mutable, is on the one hand just what it purports to be, a collection of materials (mostly narrative) from Boyer’s library of unpublished manuscripts, but it aspires to be something more, and perhaps herein lies the failure, what Faulkner called the “splendid failure to do the impossible.” Descriptions of each individual book within the larger collection to be found below.
The Many Lives of Yours Truly
A collection of stories about a single character, Bosworth Paine. It is a collection within a collection and opens with a passage that could perhaps describe the author’s relation to Survey as a whole, “This is how it is for me. I am so many different sorts of people it makes me want to stick my fingers in your mouth.” Many of these stories return to his adolescence, and an obsession with one woman in particular, for she was tied to another Bosworth could only grin in the face of so much suffering, rather than always muttering obscenities in the corner.
Jacks and Jill’s Sunshine Retreat Center
A psychedelic horror comedy that takes place on a wellness retreat just outside Santa Fe New Mexico and run by a man name of Colin Jacks. Persons have begun to disappear at an alarming rate. “And besides, you have warts on your penis.” Similar sorts of witty banter to be found within.
Chewing in the Land of the Bonobos
Characters A and B throw seeds in a bucket, and occasionally attempt to bed each other, while watching the development of war, agriculture, and ultimately resort hotels.
Devil, Everywhere I Look
An economic collapse has brought the end of the United States of America, a civil war having raged ever since, and Jackson Cole, political pamphleteer by profession, is becoming more and more caught up in a greater game of political intrigue with every step he takes, only to finally discover the truth about his younger brother’s death at the same time he finds himself addicted to the new hallucinogenic narcotic some claim is transforming humanity into an altogether different species, these being the last days before The Atlantic Bloc fell to the Midland Coalition in this post-apocalyptic nightmare world.
The God Game
A gaming manual, in which you play the game by creating the game, the God Game begins with an exploration of basic games, though the bulk of the manuscript involves universe creation and ultimately LARPing the God Game. “Does the ground consist of spires that reach to the tips of the atmosphere, or is the entire orb made up of a teaming mass of encephalocapsules?” Many questions are posed. Few are answered!
The Manikin Textbook
We open on the protagonist’s adolescence, spent as a fugitive whore in the Capital of the North American Districts, obviously modeled after New York. Then it is ten years later, and now our protagonist (also Colin Jacks) is married with children and concealing contraband information within his larger memory template. Throughout his travels he will meet a woman infested with multi-dimensional carniverous vegetation who believes he is the messiah, a man who leads him through the underground facilities where dreams are developed and propagated upon an unsuspecting populace, and ultimately a shape-changing agent of the Ministry of the Morning Star.
Shorthand with Periodic Tenderness
A collection of the sorts of poems P. K. Dick’s androids would write, especially the more abstract (such as one entitled “The Myth of Technology” which involves the repeated re-arrangement of six words), although there are more traditional poems in here. “In the Smallest Hours of the Night”, for example, contains the lines, “Face as beautiful as any god’s / Androgynous icon / And as present as crumpled sheets,” but many seem as if concocted by some computer in an effort to simulate intelligence.

Animal Hospital -- "Good or Plenty, Streets + Avenues"
Besides being a frequent cause for derision from my fiance, music that falls into the “ambient-drone” category is a staple for me. It lends itself to heavy headphone affairs in which I can be completely lost in washes of synths and looped guitar distortion to a diligent companion to late night War and Peace read-a-thons with Addy. The only downside is that when I hear an amazing instrumental album I immediately get a sense of sadness once the giddiness goes away, I think, when am I going to listen to this again? When can I recapture the thrill of the first time I heard this? The good thing about bands that fall into the ambient drone camp is that they always retain a sense of “newness” at every listen, without recognizable hooks or melodies each song is a limitless resource of sounds and musical ideas that gather weight with each listen. Animal Hospital’s Good or Plenty is an album in which every song is as fresh and exciting as it was on first listen (as exciting as an ambient drone album can be). is a remarkable recording full of sunny, beautifully recorded instrumental forays into sound and texture. Kevin Micka is a masterful sound manipulator, taking seemingly standard song arrangements of guitars, drums, turntables, hand claps and the human voice and creates looping soundscapes that are rife with discovery. Never giving into the temptation to let his wanderings turn into an irrelevant wad of noise, Micka lets his instruments prop up each song giving them of a depth of a fully fleshed out pop song. His layers of shiny guitar washes over processed feedback and manipulation put him in the ranks of Aidan Baker and Christian Fennez, while his aural dexterity and dedication to creating beautiful soundscapes recall a Talk Amongst the Trees era Matthew Cooper. Good or Plenty is what I am guessing is a companion to his full length put out on the amazing Barge Records earlier this year, I’m guessing they both go in my list of favorite instrumental albums of the year.

Where were you in the 90s?
Remember way back when… Of course Malcolm and Gabe remember. Throughout the last few shows there has been much reminiscing, but also much taking too seriously, and during this show perhaps a little less. Post-punk? Grunge? Retro? Yay! Gabe is living in the 90’s, as are the people of Eugene where Twilight at the Lady Jane Grey College for Little Ladies was Recorded. “Thereby by the grace of God, go I.” For Book You! this week Gabe reads from Kurt Cobain’s favorite book, Perfume, by Jean-Baptiste Grenouille. Gabe almost fell through the earth in the 90’s. What about you? Both Malcolm and Gabe have enjoyed watching Friends recently just for its nostalgia factor (no cell phones), and are now convinced the 90’s saw a “renaissance of humor”, although honestly that’s nothing compared to other more notorious renaissances, of Harlem and Florence to name just two.

Big Trouble in Little China
in Product
Big Trouble in Little China captures what it can’t capture, to become more than just an album, but a romance between one culture and another, one person and another, one dream and another, between those of us scuttling across the ocean floor, and those who stand above us, between the losers and the lost, the great home in the heavens, and the one we don’t want to go home to. We get saccharine as we get older, but what does it matter when all you got left is memories?

Are you goin' through changes?
Malcolm and Gabe are continuing their tip of the hat to the Facebook phenomenon and specifically what is commonly known as the List Phenomenon, and this week it is the list of songs that changed the way Gabe thinks about music, a sort of musical autobiography. From high school and Thelonius Monk, to Daniel Johnston at the office, is it possible that Gabe has lived his life solely for the purpose of creating the perfect mix tape? From Malcolm and Gabe’s first meeting at the Coolidge Corner Movietheater, to cokeheads in Brooklyn and raw sewage shooting out of the toilet, to the year Gabe wouldn’t leave the couch. This week for Book You, Gabe reads from his own A Survey of My Failures this Far, to be released by Mutable Sound on April 10th, the release party to be held at Quimby’s in Wicker Park, Chicago, at 7 pm, with the cover band, Normal Feelings. And of course another episode of Twilight at the Lady Jane Grey College for Little Ladies.

The Orgasm Manifesto
Harry Polkinhorn
1
America hates sex in general, but it especially hates orgasms, the pinnacle of the experience. It hates that which it doesn’t understand.
2
America if nothing else is an ideological construct. But so is sex, and so especially is orgasm.
3
The value is on change, and the rapidity of it. Burn your bridges. Don’t look back. This doesn’t change the way it worked for millennia but a kind of hyper-change, or high-speed motion that moves us out of a Newtonian sociality into chaos. Orgasm then becomes a strange attractor.
4
As such attractors, orgasms undo all this. They are a mode of resistance, if viewed in these admittedly fake political terms. This is the old boring tale of subversion of desire. Romanticism, really.
5
Orgasms happen in bed (usually) just as naming happens in print or through an electronic medium (usually). Or in the streets through spontaneous linguistic intervention. What I am calling naming as a language function always is embedded. We go to bed for very few purposes: to sleep, to dream, to make love, to give birth, to be ill, and to die.
What do you not know that you do not know?
Another week in your ears. Malcolm has been getting inundated by invitations to write his favorite records of all-time on Facebook. Apologies for even mentioning Facebook, but be that as it may, some people have lists concerning music that shaped their lives, which is something like ripping your skin off. Instead of playing his favorite records, however, Malcolm is going to play records he thinks you should own that you probably don’t. Gabe’s life has been full of discoveries, of an aural, visual, and tactile variety. Among Malcolm’s favorite discoveries was Bruce Haack, while for Gabe perhaps it was the french film, Fantastic Planet. A whole new dimension to hearing? Your legs are gone? Speaking of legs, it’s interesting the different directions the different Beatles took when they split up. This week, for Book You, Gabe reads from The Idler’s Glossary by Joshua Glenn, published last year through Biblioasis. Gabe thinks one of Malcolm’s purposes on this globe is to educate people concerning the world of sound, although Malcolm finds this to be a bit presumptuous and describes himself instead as the creepy guy at the record store. The podcast ends with episode seventeen of the radioplay, Twilight at the Lady Jane Grey College for Little Ladies.

From Here to John C. Lilly & Beyond
Letter from the Editor
“In the province of the mind, what one believes to be true is true or becomes true, within certain limits to be found experientially and experimentally. These limits are further beliefs to be transcended. In the mind, there are no limits… In the province of connected minds, what the network believes to be true, either is true or becomes true within certain limits to be found experientially and experimentally. These limits are further beliefs to be transcended. In the network’s mind there are no limits,” Lilly, J. C. (1974). The Human Biocomputer. London: Abacus.
For this second Letter from the Editor, I wanted to speak about one of my favorite philosophers of the 20th Century, John C. Lilly.

How do you make war?
George Carlin had something to say about the making of war, but here at Mutable Sound we are curious what the men and women of the street have to say about it. Gabe’s Guide to Winning in a Fight is this week, although his only advice is to run. He does have a very well-built younger brother who enjoys lifting him up by his slender frame and rubbing sweat all over him while Gabe punches him in the back as hard as he can. Fighting as children? Malcolm remembers having a baby sitter who used to bully him as a young boy, and what happened? Why is Lunch Mothers not a band name? Is the IRA still around? Is Benny Hill Irish? Is Benny Hill a better enemy than the Taliban? A truly strange episode of Twilight at the Lady Jane Grey College for Little Ladies. Malcolm is waging a psychic war against the postal service. Gabe reads from The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire by Edward Gibbon for Book You. If you are a creative person, please feel free to send us your jingle for Book You. Gabe tells compromising stories of his younger brother’s uncontrollable rage as a young tyke. In closure, Gabe talks about his time in the choir school, The Pupil Patrol, his career as a porn-dealer, and his style travesties of the period.

Animal Hospital: Good or Plenty, Streets + Avenues
Ron Schepper
Good or Plenty, Streets + Avenues, the second full-length album by Boston-based musician and producer Kevin Micka (aka Animal Hospital ), presents a satisfying, forty-three-minute set of guitar-based instrumentals and electro-acoustic explorations. Not having heard his 2004 self-titled release, I can only imagine how it compares to the new material but I’m willing to bet Good or Plenty, Streets + Avenues represents a significant advance (something I’m sure we’ll also hear when Micka’s Barge recording, Memory, is released). The range of sounds he coaxes from the guitar shows he’s clearly a resourceful player, and one who, to his credit, eschews histrionics for a subtler approach. He proves equally capable of folding repeating patterns into hypnotic lattice-works (“Good or Plenty”) as he does sculpting meditations both vaporous (“What If They Are Friendly”) and shuddering (“Labor Day”), and he’s also got a nice way of using well-timed stabs to kick the material into a higher gear when necessary; hear, for example, how the otherwise polite funk workout “Barnyard Creeps” springs to life the second Micka’s guitar roar enters. Contrasts abound: a seeming septet of electric guitarists collectively threads melodic patterns into a ruminative whole during “Novel Moments” while steely tones and washes stretch across the background; waves of guitars swarm and cascade throughout “11 18 07” while a plodding rhythm keeps funereal time; and the jubilant and light-footed “March and June” drapes wordless vocals by Katharine Fisk Shields and Micka over a lightly swinging, Afro-tinged rhythm base, with acoustic guitar and a celeste-like melody adding further colour. Good or Plenty, Streets + Avenues doesn’t radically advance the guitar-based soundscaping genre but there’s still much to admire about Micka’s execution of his material and his conceptual approach (love the album cover too).

When is fire not fire?
Our surreal lives made more surreal by these crazy economic times. Malcolm’s creative energies are blossoming during this time, much like under the Weimar Republic. I don’t know what to do with my life, says Malcolm, while all Gabe remembers of A Clockwork Orange are the milk-dispensing breasts, which of course causes Malcolm to exclaim that he feels we’re bringing the good times back. Tammy Faye Bakker sings as well as weeps, but not on our show she don’t, but what if we could couple Kate Bush with Scott Walker to create the ultimate singing machine? I am music, says Malcolm. We are up to episode 15 of Twilight at the Lady Jane Grey College for Little Ladies made at the art factory that is Mutable Sound. For Book You, this week Gabe reads from The Four Elements, by Benjamin Peret. Gabe talks of surreal moments, both his own and other people’s, and would love to hear yours. Write to him at mail@mutablesound.com. The podcast ends with Gabe’s Guide to Bringing the Spice Back into your Life.

S**t Happens When You Party Naked
Dmitry Samarov
Dmitry Samarov is a local cab driver and artist who puts out a semi-regular blog called Hack, stories from his hours spent driving a hackney through the streets of Chicago. His most recent entry is about waiting out late-night revelers with a man who’s been driving a cab since ’73, the man’s scraggly white beard yellowed around the mouth from the nicotine who we learn, through the course of the entry, has been writing science-fiction stories on a manual typewriter for years, the latest involving a human-sized insect who’s also a detective. At the end of the post we learn that the detective has discovered ‘the remains of a person’s arm, chiseled to the sharpest point ever detected on his planet…’
Samarov was born in Moscow in 1970, emigrated to Boston in ’78 with his family, studied art at the Parsons School of Design and the Art Institute of Chicago, and has been driving cab for god only knows how long. The story of his first days as a cab driver is some of my favorite stuff, both awkward and lude, the drawings crude and poignant, full of vignettes with hookers and undergrads. Samarov is like a cross between Bukowski and Scorsese as seen through a murky watercolor-drawn world.
In the Mutableye is a segment that sometimes showcases something interesting that is happening somewhere in the world at this moment, and sometimes showcases some fad or person from the past that we here at Mutable acknowledge is still cool s**t.
For our second Is Still Cool S**t, we wanted to showcase an unknown artist & author who has been lurking in the taxi’s of Chicago and all the while recording this seedy world through words and images. Welcome to the universe of Dmitry Samarov!
Who do you love?
Love is in the air. In our hearts we sing of love. Love, love, love. Often mistook for another four-letter word, and speaking of misplaced four letter words, this week for Book You, Gabe reads from Love Letters from a Nobleman to his Sister by Aphra Behn (1640-1689). Writing as she did during the swinging renaissance, a lot like the 1970’s, Behn at one time worked as a spy for Charles II, as well as having a long-time affair with notorious rake, lawyer, and possible bi-sexual, John Hoyle. An interesting woman. Awkward romantic moments? Gabe took a date to mass once, which was awkward. There are so many films you should not take a date to, such as Short Cuts, Naked, and Last Tango in Paris, while in other news, this Valentine’s Day Mutable Sound had a baby, Animal Hospital’s Good or Plenty, Streets + Avenues. We think it’s good. You should buy it! In Gabe’s Guide to Accepting Rejection, he recommends our listeners to face the horror. Goodnight.

Animal Hospital -- Good or Plenty, Streets + Avenues
Love and Mathematics
Originally published 02.15.2009
My favorite Brian Eno album always has been and always will be “Another Green World.” Anticipating Eno’s ambient work that soon followed in its use of meditative repetition and quiet electronics, that 1975 lp has always been more interesting to me because of its added complexity: the way, for instance, that guitars, bass, drums, and the occasional vocal allow the music to retain contact with the standard rock format even as the compositions moved far beyond. So you might call “Another Green World” an “ambient” album, but it’s much more than that; and you might call it “experimental rock,” but it’s much more than that, too.

Where have the days gone?
February is like a miniature dark age every year. Feel free to write to us at mail@mutablesound.com. Gabe has been reading a lot, and listening to Lilith, by George MacDonald, a post of which is up now! Animal Hospital’s new album will be released on the fourteenth of this month. The theme for the week is authenticity, a word which Gabe barely understands.The eighties were certainly far from pure, but there was some purely synthetic music that came out of the eighties. For Book You, Gabe reads from The Green Hills of Elsewhere, by Thomas Frank, editor-in-chief of the Baffler, founded right here in Chicago, though now published out of Washington, D.C. The article in question was published in another periodical, however, the late great Hermenaut, though still existing as a blog aggregator at hermenaut.org. Malcolm always thought the postal service was part of our heritage, but now it’s really sad. Gabe used to get collages in the mail, and now nothing. And what of the switch from candle light to flourescent light? Advertisements are discussed, from ABC to Pepsi. We can change the world, but what will happen in 2012? Malcolm is optimistic, but no, Gabe is talking about the apocalypse. Adam Sandler in an Aztec romantic comedy? The show ends with Gabe’s guide to really sincerely being himself.

Good or Plenty, Streets + Avenues
in Product
Animal Hospital’s Kevin Micka has played in several bands, most recently The Common Cold, before eventually becoming Animal Hospital. His first CD was self-titled and released through Mister Records in 2004. Besides Good or Plenty, Streets + Avenues, Barge records is releasing another album of his entitled Memory in March of this year. He will be touring Europe and Iceland in March and April, as well as going on an American tour with Lineland in May.
Micka also played a supporting role in the mumble-core film, Mutual Appreciation, by Andrew Bujalski, and is a respected producer and sound engineer in his own right. Most noted perhaps for recording and mixing down several albums for the band Neptune, he has also recorded and mixed down Mutable Sound’s own The Textbook Tapes, on which he played. He has been working in this capacity in and around Boston since the late nineties.
Good or Plenty, Streets + Avenues was recorded on Osterville Rd., 16th St., Main St., South St., Capp St., and Palmer during 2007 & 2008 by Kevin Micka. Additional vocals by Katharine Fisk Shields.
