Vocoders in the Spring: Transmission 114, 2014 April 13

As I think I have explained before--but who knows? I cannot retain anything these days--sometimes I am on the air as a pretense for getting other things done at the station. This was such a time. The computer needed special attention, and DJ Dronestrike was grounded, so there I was, as I so often seem to be.

It's a safe bet--though I don't know where you would book it--that some anomalous stuff happened during this broadcast. And I don't mean Tom Snyder's Manson interview. But we are what we are, at this point. That His Name Is Alive track comes dangerously close to the irony I once promised not to deliver, but I do like it. I do.
