solipsistic NATION No. 206:
Enduser, Live

The first Friday of each month I feature a live set from an electronic artist.

Yes, I know this is a Monday and not a Friday.

solipsistic NATION is a labor of love that keeps me sane but it's not a paying gig, so real life often gets in the way. Putting food on my table, I'm sad to day, trumps putting music in your ears.

So from time to time solipsistic NATION will go out a week late. And I could have easily pushed today's show back a week, too, but since this is a holiday in the US I figured that's all the excuse I needed to release today's show.

As I mentioned, once a month I feature a live set and this month's set comes to us from Lynn Standafer. You probably know him as Enduser.

Lynn's latest album, 1/3, was released by Ad Noiseam and like Ad Noiseam, Lynn's music is top notch, inventive and always takes you in unexpected directions. Today's live set from Lynn is a perfect example of what I'm talking about. Lynn kicks things off with iamthesun, a project between him and Casey Beagle and Balazs Pandi and then moves to a project he did with former Swans member Jarboe. We'll also hear two track from Blood of Heroes, a project that includes Justin K. Broadrick and Bill Laswell. Lynn is a man who is not confined by genre. So we've got a lot of great music to look forward to!

Join us again this Friday when we'll talk with Alexander Synaptic of Ektoplazm and play select tracks from his net label.

Grooved

I just encoded this week's show to mp3 (thanks, Blacktree!) and I'm coasting on the dregs of nervous energy. Before this buzz evaporates let me tell you about this week's show before I crash. And what a great show it is! I'm a little late to the party. Greg Harrison's Groove came out in 2000 but I only just saw it on Netflix a few months back. For a while I've been thinking about the 90s and the millennium buzz that was building. Things seemed so optimistic but 10 years later, I just can't seem to muster that same optimism. I don't know if it's guarded caution from 9/11 or just a fact of getting older. Was I ever really that idealistic and is it possible to ever feel that way again?

Augur

Today's show is dedicated to Florian, a newly acquainted friend who has recently gotten into dubstep. Florian, while today's mix isn't all dubstep I think there's enough to keep you happy. It's been fun listening to dubstep with fresh ears with Florian. It's easy to forget that dubstep has only been around for the last ten years. Unless you're this kid, who is going to grow up with dubstep, then it's easy to forgive if you've never heard dubstep.

The first time I had heard of dubstep was back in 2002 when XLR8R explored the genre. I had already heard the sound percolating through acts like Horsepower Productions but now the sound had a name.

Crammed Discs

Each month I showcase a music label that puts out amazing releases you absolutely need to know about. Today on solipsistic NATION I'll play select tracks from Crammed Discs. Usually this would be pretty straight forward but in the case of Crammed Discs it's a challenge. Crammed Discs has been around for 30 years now and in that time they've released over 265 albums and 250 singles. Furthermore, Crammed Discs features artists from all over the world, from the Balkans to Africa, from South America to the Middle East and beyond. How do encompass all of that in a one hour program. The simple answer is that it can't be done. Fortunately I had Marc Hollander, the label's founder...
