BCB013 - The Beach Beneath the Subway feat Ania and Maroje

Base Camp Beta

Never mind your half eaten hot dog, welcome to BCB, episode 13 in which we talk: Weird Science with Ania Waluk and Maroje Tabakovic, future communes, mountains vs. the beach, the frightening skeleton of Ocean City (NJ), TM, NY vs Chicago hot dogs, saxophone as the hot dog of the music world, how Subway changed my life. We also discuss songs from Tenor Saw, Five or Six, Tuxedomoon, and Hauster. Not included is Rachelle’s revelation on her theory of Tuxedomoon’s “59 to 1”, here reproduced in précis for posterity: “59 to 1 by Tuxedomoon is about temporality under capitalism. Not Andy Warhol’s 15 minutes of fame; we actually have a fraction of that: 1 second. And how do we express ourselves under capitalism in one second? With the ‘I.’ What is most unique about us, our individuality, is reproduced in a uniform gesture, a tick on the clock. It is also a political gesture, the vote via ‘say I,’ - ‘I.’ And in this way, it is what turns us against one another as enemies or towards one another as allies.” Including music by: Tenor Saw - Original Pumpkin Belly https://youtu.be/jCLQSJE2-x8 Five or Six - Another Reason https://youtu.be/ZV3eaIRewCY Tuxedomoon - 59 to 1 https://youtu.be/ZTWgq9R1JPA Hauster - Ena https://youtu.be/ipYGL3jFXfQ Opening music: Beau Wanzer - Basement Dwellers Produced and Edited by Rachelle Rahme Mixed by Shawn O’Sullivan [e-mail]
