Rewindings: In Which Agamemnon Senses Something's Wrong and Renovates the Residence





Going back a ways. Effectively what we have here is a reconstruction, abridged and edited, of an old playlist from about 11 years ago. From back when I first started doing a radio show at a community station on the south side of Chicago. Some favored tracks of the time, veering towards a certain sound -- a certain fin de siècle undertow, perhaps. "Dark," "abstrakt," "leftfield," and reputedly even a little "paranoid." Broken beats and dusted dubspace, with the occasional disc deliberately spun at the "incorrect" RPM. (All of it a bit different from the more upbeat, groove-friendly shape the format would take later.) Perhaps it seems a bit incongruous for the latter half of the high-flying nineties, for the tail end of the Clinton years. But about a year or two later, I guess it might've made more sense in hindsight. Probably best listened to in that late-night/early-morning hours.
