i started out w/ some random stuff tonight: sunn O)), john fahey, hisato higuchi, six organs of admittance.. then played some laurie spiegel, maryanne amacher, and a very extensive, excellent track by the one and only jim o’rourke.
(this an unedited podcast: the first few minutes of the recording have the tail end of wuog’s psychedelic show, sundialing- a great show as well, and then EQUINOX begins shortly thereafter. and my show starts out a little quiet as well, sorry)
