Ep. 84: POP! GOES THE OCTOLECTIC feat. Poppy [@helloiampoppy]

from HERE COMES THE BACKKLASH · host POOLHOUSE

POP! GOES THE OCTOLECTIC featuring Poppy [@helloiampoppy]In this latest ultra-cosmic transmission of HERE COMES THE BACKKLASH, DJ POOLHOUSE once again invites his remote viewers into his radiant, ongoing experiment in pop-art audio assemblage — one with plenty of crackle and snap.Poolhouse is joined by Poppy — British artist, drummer, and beloved bohemian barge-dwelling internet e-foid. Poppy steps from the periphery of the Backklash universe to become its newest muse and interlocutor, percolating toward the guest chair… and beyond.At the episode’s heart lies The Poppy Show — a pseudo–show-within-a-show in which roles invert and Poolhouse becomes the subject of his own inquiry. Here, Poppy leans into the producer’s spirit, hosting her host in a delightful discussion on octolectics, garbology, and the mysteries of civilization — all refracted through a refreshing blend of the philosophical and the playful.The result is a meta-conversation as glittering and self-aware as a mirrorball: two electric minds weaving history, myth, life experience, bricolage, and armillary spheres into a living pop-art audio tableau. This dream team engage in a conversation which gradually reveals itself to be a psychic exhibition of sound. Together they navigate the absurdities and enigmas of 21st-century “New Normal” living, drifting through the tidal confluence of the real and the produced, the techno-spiritual and the cyber-demonic, the artifact and the product.Pop! Goes the Octolectic is a technological encounter with the Spirit, another landmark entry in this Poolhousean intimate audio happening serial – another dazzling, impossibly charming moment, artfully etched into form from the ether.Follow Poppy on Xhttps://x.com/helloiampoppyA Poppy original collage:That taxes tweet:ARMILLARY SPHERE – A HYPOTHETICAL PHYSICAL MODEL OF THE OCTOLECTIC?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armillary_sphere Shipping lanes – arteries of the commercial corpus:sources cited by Poolhouse in this program include multiple monographs found in his private Kinostic Library:PROGRAM NOTESChapters(0:00) - welcome backk(4:54) – introducing… Poppy!(11:22) - The Art of the Poppy(24:24) - Confessions of a Barge-dwelling Bohemiam(40:23) - Mudlarking(46:42) – Poppy X Poolhouse: On Octolectics(1:04:50) - Gnostic Vibes Power Hour(1:23:25) – What’s the Use of Human Beings?(1:29:35) - Poppy’s ‘Zine (1:34:44) - Poppy on Poppy + Outro SHE BANGS THE DUB (DJ POOLHOUSE EDIT) [THE STONE ROSES, ‘SHE BANGS THE DRUMS’ LIVE DUB REMIX BY DJ POOLHOUSE [as HEARD ON HERE COMES THE BACKKLASH) [upload]Episode MixtapeNo Doubt - Hella Good (Dub)*NSYNC - Pop (Poolhouse Dirty Pop Dub Edit)M - Pop Muzik (MANGETOUT Edit)Felix da Housecat - Night Tripperz Gaga - Vanish Into You (Poolhouse Vanish Into Dub Edit)The Stone Roses - She Bangs the Drums (Poolhouse She Bangs the Dub Edit)Slayyyter - CANNIBALISM!
