Iowa Basement Tapes #15 10-11-2018

Night Listeners of 98.9 FM KFMG -Tonight I got stuck on a surf kick. The Afterdarks, Person Whale, and Steve Reverb & The Sound Tones all in the first 20 minutes. Person Whale has made its way into my heart. I love how sloppy the sound quality is and I wish more musicians would cut themselves some slack and let things sound a little more organic once and awhile. After much talk about my buddy Bensmasher (curator of 319dude.bandcamp.com), I finally got one of his recordings into the mix. Before I ever met Ben in person, we chatted on AOL Instant Messanger. He told me he had a "hippy industrial" project called Harm. When we met in person at Relics Records he gave me a copy. This was around 2003 and I wish to this day that he had recorded more material. At one point I had a remixed version of "Ten Red Months" that was more guitar-based vs the long ambient version that is on the album. When he first shared with me the 319 Dude Bandcamp archive, I asked him why Harm was not included and he told me "No one really knew I did this."Download The Latest ShowFor full show notes and playlists, please visit www.kristianday.com or www.kfmg.org.- Kristian#trustkristianday Follow Iowa Basement Tapes on: InstagramFollow Kristian Day on: Instagram | Twitter (not doing much with it currently)Iowa Basement Tapes has its own archive of Iowa music.
