Last week's Wild Kingdom ushered in the special feature "Acid Burns Los Alto Hills, Part One". The first part dealt with the origins of Acid House and its subsequent spread to the UK. The playlist for said segment is at http://www.kfjc.org/music/playlist.php?i=30216 . This week's segment (part 2 of 3) will be a roller-coaster acid tour tour of Europe, starting with acidic New Beat tracks in the Lowlands, and ending with some second-generation acid artists in the UK. The third and last segment will examine some US acid artists, including 2nd-generation Chicago producers. I'm up for some suggestions regarding credible West Coast acid producers, as I'm drawing mostly blanks (lotsa stuff from New York, Chicago, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Detroit, Philly (holds his nose), but not much from California, except a nasty track form Mike Kandel as Commander Mindf**k)... A small note of interest - my house address is 303 S. **** Street. I didn't plan it that way when I bought the place, but I wouldn't change it for the world. "The Wild Kingdom" airs on KFJC-FM 89.7, Saturday night/Sunday Morning, 12A-3A (7A-10A GMT). The webcast is at www.kfjc.org (follow the links). Present and past Wild Kingdom playlists are also archived there. You can also check out archived playlists from my first KFJC show "Just Desserts" that aired on Fridays 10P-2A from 1992 through 1999. Archived playlists exist for that show starting from Fall 1995 to New Year's Eve 1999/2000. If you do tune in (especially via the web), please take a little time to let me know your locale. I'm also interested in promo music from all over and in promoting local (San Francisco Bay area) techno-type events. If you want to do some fairly serious promotion, contact the KFJC promotions department at xxxxx@xxxx.xxx to arrange ticket giveaways and/or to send information for inclusion in our concert outlook. Thanks to those who have sent promo music so far. Regards, Richard Hester "Mr. Goodwrench" "The Wild Kingdom" SU 12A-3A KFJC-FM 89.7, Los Altos Hills, California
