Playlist for Arpil 6, 2009

Today's show was alright, but the inability to play one track was a bummer to say the least, since it was intended to be a focal point. The track in question is John Carpenter's 'Porkchop Express' from his 1986 film Big Trouble in Little China, with Carpenter's scores from Halloween and Escape from New York also getting airplay. Alas, only 2/3 of the Carpenter block was completed, and I apologize to all the Carpenter fans out there hoping to hear the tune. Other soundtracks included are listed below, from noted films to films with a marginal cult following.
Films played a key theme to today's program outside of the soundtracks. Agalloch's- 'The Hawthorne Passage' freatures samples from Alejandro Jodorowsky's Fando Y Lis, while Der Eisenrost mainman Chu Ishikawa served as composer to many of Shinya Tsukamoto's films (such as Tetsuo: The Ironman, Tokyo Fist, and A Snake of June). All of these movies are works of art, and I'd recommend people seeking them out.

1) Agalloch- The Hawthorne Passage (The Mantle)
2) Voici- Rossignolet (Bette & Wallet)
3) United Steelworkers of Montreal- Making Babies (Three on the Tree)
4) Provincial Archive- Night Sounds (Nameless Places)
5) John Coltrane- Resolution (A Love Supreme)
6) Clifton Anderson- We'll Be Together Again (Decade)
7) Ann Southam- Noisy River (Pond Life)
8) Aphex Twin- Fingerbib (Richard D. James Album)
9) Der Eisenrost- White Way (Armored Weapon)
10) Venetian Snares- Calvin Kleining (Filth)
11) Hermann Kopp, Dakarti Lorenz & John Boy Walton- Menage-a-trois (Nekromantik Soundtrack)
12) John Carpenter- Halloween Theme (Halloween Soundtrack)
13) John Carpenter- Escape From New York Theme (Escape From New York Soundtrack)
14) Vangelis- Blade Runner [end credits] (Blade Runner Soundtrack)
15) Johnny Greenwood- Prospector's Quartet (There Will Be Blood Soundtrack)
16) Lhasa- Anyone and Everyone (S/T)
