remarkably harmonious grog ballads (live Fijian village kava songs)
interspersed with recorded Christian/pop plus staid, unaccompanied
Methodist hymns and feveri$ ANC (All Nations) open-air church services
with petrol-generator-amplified keybo$ on Waya Island, Fiji plus a

estranged recordings from behind a Scentimental rose bush at Portland
International Rose Test Garden, Oregon, USA, July 4, 2011. Hoards of
nattering, socially-engineered, endangered middle-class visitors, take
photos of each other, and smell the genetically-designed roses. One, two,
three. A reggae band performs a sound-check in the background. Scentimental
was also a Mel Blanc cartoon featuring Pepe LePew and Penelope Pussycat.
"Vive l'amour! We die together." [also at archive.org/bbrace]

over 80 days' [suspended during the tsunami: the two main actors appeared in
split-screen and encouraged the people to persevere] -- episodes of a Japanese TV
soap-opera -- to accompany the show's opening/integrated theme music, with
soaring/plaintive violins; each day there's a wonderful new montage of Okinawans
enacting this typical illustrative dance -- it's a great 15-minute production that's
very popular and repeats a few times daily, but maybe only on the southern
islands...

five-hour recordings of/on the polar bear express train to moosonee,
ontario:  gateway to the canadian arctic

recent compilations of grenadines (west indies) radio programming (parang
season!)

latest release: LBOSPI recordings field-compilations from Lake Brule, Oil
Springs and Peele Island

over 13 hours of fresh mp3 rips of long reticent monoaural, radio-drifts¥,
soup kitchens, police sirens, and forgotten film-soundtracks
