Description
It's time to rave on! Special guest Shivam Bhatt returns to help us round out the second half of MTV's late-night electronica collection, where they stuck all of the non-British acts. This time around we've got some anti-fascist digital hardcore punk from Berlin, a Crystal Method song you've heard in dozens of commercials, a history lesson about the Roland TB-303, and a hippie anthem recorded on a secluded island in Washington state.Get early access to bonus episodes on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/discordpodTranquility Bass - We All Want To Be FreeGoldie - Inner City LifeThe Prodigy - Voodoo People (Chemical Brothers Remix)Josh Wink - Are You There?The Crystal Method - Busy ChildAtari Teenage Riot - Sick To DeathLinks: DJ Ron's "Dangerous" (example clip for jungle music): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2eiwK3WqCI"Original Nuttah" by UK Apachi and Shy FX (example clip for drum & bass music): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxbekgL4w7wFull-band TV performance of "Inner City Life": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqX5AM-7ixM&feature=youtu.be"Generation Ecstasy: Into the World of Techno and Rave Culture" by Simon Reynolds: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DL1R5OE/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1"Last Night a DJ Saved My Life: The History of the Disc Jockey" by Bill Brewster and Frank Broughton: https://groveatlantic.com/book/last-night-a-dj-saved-my-life/Cohosts: Rich Bunnell, Mike DeFabio, Shivam BhattIntro music: "Weird Al" Yankovic, "Stupid Haircut" (parody of The Prodigy's "Firestarter," from The Weird Al Show)Closing credits music by Kenneth Kraylie, originally composed by Andy Partridge with new lyrics by Adam Smith of the Hector Collectorshttps://kennethkraylie.bandcamp.com/https://casinos.bandcamp.com/https://thehectorcollectors.bandcamp.com/

001: Earth, Wind, & Fire - All 'N All (1977): For one of the most popular, beloved, and commercially successful bands of the 1970s, Earth, Wind, & Fire have become something of an afterthought by the 2010s. Bandleader Maurice White’s death in February 2016 earned a few loving obituaries, but mostly got lost in the shuffle between Bowie and Prince’s respective passings. More recently, Taylor Swift’s gentrified, tone-deaf cover of their signature hit “September” underscored a sad reality: Earth, Wind, & Fire have passed the Beach Boys “Endless Summer” threshold and become a Greatest Hits band, their songs part of the cultural wallpaper. For the inaugural episode of Discord & Rhyme, host Rich Bunnell uses EWF’s 1977 release All ‘n All to illustrate that EWF were far more than a playlist’s worth of hit singles. All ‘n All is the arguable peak of an incredible run of late-’70s albums, several of which deserve to be viewed as part of the canon alongside Revolver, Songs in the Key of Life, a by Discord and Rhyme: An Album Podcast
