Artificial Radio Hour with Rev. Dr. Dr. Phill Part 32

Hey there folks!

Some languages other than English this week, some of them "real" and some not.

I first heard Jaan Pehechan Ho in the opening of the movie Ghost World.  It's originally from a film called Gumnaam. I recommend Ghost World but you can skip Gumnaam unless you really like Indian movies. It's kind of a really boring version of Agatha Christie's "And Then There Were None".

Sigur Rós and Caramba are both Scandinavian bands that recorded songs in made-up languages. Sigur Rós has songs in Hopelandish as well as their native Icelandic, while Sweeden's Caramba's songs are in nonsense languages. Some of them are recognizably "fake Russian" or "fake German", but I can't tell what language "Hubba Hubba Zoot Zoot" is supposed to sound like.

By the way, I cut out approximately the middle third of the Sigur Ros track to leave just the mellower bits. Here's a visual representation of that:

Tom Zear

There are a couple more SoundWalk tracks here, from 2004 & 2005. You can hear them layered on top of each other underneath Jimmy Pardo & David Feldman playing "Sevens", which is an iPhone game based on "The $24,000 Pyramid".

DeFord Bailey was the first black performer on the Grand Old Opry.

I briefly stop leaning on "Bob", and start poking at "Doug". Sometimes you gotta change it up, you know? Especially when there's a "Doug" synchronicity across two podcasts.

Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, Jorma Taccone

I'm not sure where I got the Incredibad track, but it was before I ever heard of The Lonely Island, and years before those guys were on SNL.

I first heard The Okeh Laughing Record used as a background bed under Jean Shepherd on his WOR AM radio show from the early 60s. There is a great podcast called The Brass Figlagee that collects hundreds of hours of Jean Shepherd radio shows that I highly recommend.

Los Ángeles Negros (The Black Angels) are a pop group from Chile. You may have heard this tune sampled by the Beastie Boys.

There's always room for more of this.

As our ship sinks slowly into the west, that's about it for this week. If you have any questions or comments, please let me know by replying to this email, or commenting below (depending on where you're reading this). Get at me on Twitter, or even Facebook!

I know there are some new listeners, so feel free to go back and listen to older shows if you haven't already.

Until next week, enjoy!

- Rev. Dr. Dr. Phill




Wait, P.S.! The serialized adventures of Ruby are coming to an end next week. Do you want more serials? More Ruby? No serials? Let me know at all the usual places. (A tip: Given how few people usually leave comments, whichever option gets more than one vote/comment will be the clear winner. So if you have an opinion, please express it!) - R.D.D.P
