Infected Mushroom

Three or four weeks ago I was having lunch in Wascana Park and found in the bushes several CDs covered in mud & moisture & mould & did what any good DJ would do, salvaging everything that held some promise. The result was the addition of the following five titles to my playlist:

The Trinity – Sean Paul
Fist of God – MSTRKRFT
Collected – Massive Attack
Hellbilly Deluxe – Rob Zombie
Vicous Delicious – Infected Mushroom

So Episode no.78 was a bit of a departure for Naval Aviation In Audio, featuring tracks from all five of these dance-pop albums.

This episode also featured the opening Chapter of Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness on Audiobook.

Strange Celestial Roads ... or Nationalist Fervor?

Episode no.77 celebrated the height of summer by playing all three tracks from Sun Ra’s 1979 jazz-rock exploration Strange Celestial Roads. To add a parallel strange journey, Joseph Conrad’s Heart Of Darkness was played along with Sun Ra, sometimes in the foreground, as if Conrad was on stage with the band, and sometimes receding to the backround, as if you were in a jazz club and were hearing Conrad telling his dark tale at the next table.

And to acknowledge July 1 (which began at the end of the program), we heard some national-themed Canadian punk rock.
