Last week's Wild Kingdom playlist for the special feature "The Sounds of Machines Our Parents Used" is at http://www.kfjc.org/music/playlist.php?i=30174 . I obviously needed another hour or so, but made do with the time I had. Maybe I'll run a second part after all the Mayhem dust settles. This week starts a 3-part special called "Acid Burns Los Altos Hills", a brief survey course on things acidic. At ten hours total, there's only time to give a taste... The first part runs tonight from 11P-3A PDST (GMT - 8 hours). As is entirely appropriate, I start in Chicago circa 1985 and take a look at some of the early movers and shakers in the Chicago acid house scene, moving on to the UK acid house explosion of 1988 - early 90's. Next week's bit will deal briefly with the intersection of Lowlands New Beat and Acid House, and take a look at some artists and trends in the Lowlands and Germany. If time permits, I may throw in some second-generation UK acid tracks. I'll talk more about that later next week as the segment shapes up "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
