Show 66 - Par Avion 9/30/2012

Fuzzites everywhere… are you enjoying the change of season as much as me? Probably! Amazing blue skies and in the distance fresh snow along the divide. It's a signal I will soon have plenty of time to concentrate on my own projects and more music will be blasting within my living space. Changing seasons, changing thoughts is the condition I am in. Do you hear it? Do you feel it? Far away northerly winds remind me of the past year and eventually will ring in a new year. It all boils down to time. Passing time. Wasted time. Reality or make-believe. Music is the reality of a point in time and if you relate it's your reality too! BARDOS FREEDOOM sent these 8 tracks via special delivery for today's show. You can just listen to the music, or you could enter into the reality of Bardos. These tracks have meaning in his world. The mood is his reality. The beat is his spirit and nothing can take the place of that. Hello Bardos where ever you are.

Show 65 - Special Edition 9/16/2012

Hello Fuzzites. Autumn creeps slowly into my pores and I welcome it. Tomorrow may bring an early snow or maybe a hard freeze and extended Indian Summer. I don't know but prepare myself for whatever may be. Early morning produces an unexpected dispatch from the founder of Vitamin Fuzz, aka Bardos Freedoom. I was high to see a sound file had been attached. Now what have we here? An incognito radio production for worldwide broadcast is what. So, settle in for Vitamin Fuzz Radio broadcast #65, Third Coast Episode ONE. Digitally simmered to perfection within a cozy bunker somewhere in the Western Hemisphere [me thinks, but am not sure]. That matters little since it is the music's awareness and not for me to brood. Listeners note: high quality playbill so go with headphones and a maté for an expanded stereo juxtapose.

Switch ON frequency gurus. Hello Bardos where ever you are.  [52 minutes, 123 mb, 320kbps]

Show 64 - Playlist 9/3/2012

Playing records while staring at the curtain shadows and trying to shove my brain back into my skull. Many call this relaxing on a weekend morning. Flipping through the records it seems most bring back some memory. I switch/listen through all the loops on my Buddha Machine. Loop 5 always reminds me of Golden Gardens on Puget Sound. Today's playlist is a typical music morning as I sip my caffeine and wonder what is now. Some tracks didn't make the show… Hey, I can't divulge everything sacred via this podcast. Prepare your own morning cup of caffeine, then give this one a listen. Even so you may not wake up till noon unless you're in the same mindset as me. [98 minutes, 94.2 mb, 128kbps]

My Kmart fan is moving hot air around just as it has for the past few months. Seems to be a slight let up in the weather and that's to be expected since the sun gets lower each day. The road tar has settled as low as it can go. The weeds are struggling to survive. The dogs lay low and close to the foundation wall where it is cooler. My mower stands lonely in the garage waiting for some rain. Chores go undone until the cool days of autumn arrive. Everything is everything. Nothing is everything. And now it's time for a little music. [77 minutes, 79 mb, 128kbps]

The urban heat hacks out pieces of my mind and spits it out on the ground. I hear it sizzle like a meat patty on the grill. Hot winds blow from the NW. No matter if I look North or South all I see is sepia toned smoke drifting in. Summer's hot death is here too early. My only reprieve is night and an old Kmart fan. In a weird way night is always refreshing, especially the hours just before sunrise. It seems life should go on hold when the heat is this intense. This show expounds my mood just before the sun rises and reheats what was previously baked. Stay still. Conserve your energy and meditate upon thoughts of your inner presence. The inner presence is the only truth.

Underground characters [running amok] such as Philip Best [Consumer Electronics], Gary Mundy [instigator of Broken Flag label] and Masami Akita [Merzbow] led me to some mythical music for this weeks show. It's a mix of musical experiments, noise, tribal thumps, jangling bells and junk banging on junk. Drones of all sorts filter through, before and aft. This mix is enough to inspire articulate thinkers or a three-legged dog and may instigate thoughts of long distance space travel or vague dreams of spraying graffiti on your own garage door.  We all know life is falling down. The decline makes it easy to let yourself go to waste. Slide your plastic, push a button, rewire your veins. [133 minutes, 129 mb, 128kbps]

My mind's echo. A lifetime blown-by like the blurred speed of a coal train headed north to Wyoming. Woozy spring weekends bound at both ends by the inferno reality. Yes, yes… settle into the sickness of a nasty mind-grip. The music can help me find the light switch in my eyes. Wandering, gathering, adventure searching out the tracks in this show lead me to my favorite new-old discovery… Atlas Sound [aka Bradford Cox of Deerhunter] reminds me the remote and free are just outside my door, over there in the calm mountains. Feel the primitive urban sound and lo-fi psych-noise relaxants. So, take my advice [sic]. Go with a large dose of New York quartet Psychic Ills. They have toured with Indian Jewelry and The Black Angels. Now they've arrived in your house with the medicine.
