Last week's Wild Kingdom featured the second installment of "Acid Burns Los Alto Hills". The first part dealt with the origins of Acid House and its subsequent spread to the UK. The second portion was a breakneck tour of acidic Europe. The playlist is at http://www.kfjc.org/music/playlist.php?i=30263 . If the selection appears a little top-heavy in the Lowlands department, it's because I've an affinity for Lowlands stuff, whether it be acid, electro, or techno (I'll pass on the gabber, though). Someday soon I should do another "Dutch treat" program (a tradition from my old "Just Desserts" show). Anyway, this week's Wild Kingdom is preempted by the "Day of Dub", a long-standing KFJC Mayhem tradition. From Midnight tonight to 2AM Monday morning, it's all dub, ranging from the skankiest smoky Jamaican variety to industrial nastiness from Scorn and Terminal Cheesecake. I'm leading the charge from Midnight to 3AM, and I'll be mixing the traditional dub strains with the avant. Next week brings the third and last segment of "Acid Burns Los Altos Hills", featuring North American acid. Names to watch for: Damon Wild, Tim Taylor, Steve Stoll, Kirlian, Dave Yanu, Woodie Mc Bride, Morgan Geist, UR, Heath Brunner, Freddie Fresh, Winkleman, Fred Gianelli, Mike Kandel, Mike Dearborn, DJ Skull, and others. 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
