This week on Uneasy Listening: a week off and news about my upcoming RADIO FEAT
Hi everyone!
I'll be off again this week, I'll be missing a lot of shows the next couple of months due to fairly fun obligations. B-Syde will be my regular fill-in throughout! Next week I'll be off Saturday as well but I'm filling in for Dana K on Friday!
My big 10th anniversary news is that some time this spring or summer I'll be attempting to set a world record for most songs played on the radio in an hour! I'm currently assembling a playlist which so far has 200something songs topping out at 26 seconds apiece, and I'll be seeking out the shortest songs I can to up that number! It takes a long time (4 months-ish) to get the OK to set an official world record and no guarantee I will be approved, but I have applied and I'll be doing it either way! As far as I know, no one has set this one yet.
If you're creatively inclined and want to participate, here's what you can do:
record a theme song for the feat! 20 seconds or less.
record any old super short song. the shorter the better. i'm being slightly picky about what constitutes a song, it should have some level of creative effort. but i'll take your word for it on that.
suggest songs! 25 seconds or less, they should have a title and exist as a distinct track on some kind of release. they can be spoken word but no unaltered samples, no skits (probably, i might make an exception for more song-like skits)
anyway here's the 10th anniversary show if you missed it! Also be sure to check out this week's Transistor Sister (to be posted soon) which is a bit of a 10TH ANNIVERSARY DANCE PARTY!
