Last week's Wild Kingdom playlist is at http://www.kfjc.org/music/playlist.php?i=30077 . It was an all-CD affair. This week's set is about having to play the hand you're dealt. I have a huge stack of 12"s in the living room, purchased in lots of 10-20 from an Ebay seller as a sort of pig-in-the-poke speculation. I grabbed a big handful of these and threw together a set. Labels employed include Trapez, User, New Religion, Head to Toe, Onitor, Kompakt, Ost Gut Ton, Ware, Jelly Jam (sort of snuck in near the end of the set), Ware, and Poker Flat.

Next week I start a series of specials during my time slot as part of the fabulous KFJC "Month of Mayhem", a tradition at the station since 1982. First up for me is a special called "The Sounds of Machines Our Parents Used", a 3-hour special on bands and track named after synths, effects, patches, plug-ins, etc. For more details on this and other specials, check www.kfjc.org.

"The Wild Kingdom" airs on KFJC-FM 89.7, Saturday night/Sunday Morning, 12A-3A (7A-10A GMT). The webcast is at www.kfjc.org (follow the links). Present and past Wild Kingdom playlists are also archived there. You can also check out archived playlists from my first KFJC show "Just Desserts" that aired on Fridays 10P-2A from 1992 through 1999. Archived playlists exist for that show starting from Fall 1995 to New Year's Eve 1999/2000.

If you do tune in (especially via the web), please take a little time to let me know your locale. I'm also interested in promo music from all over and in promoting local (San Francisco Bay area) techno-type events. If you want to do some fairly serious promotion, contact the KFJC promotions department at [EMAIL PROTECTED] to arrange ticket giveaways and/or to send information for inclusion in our concert outlook. Thanks to those who have sent promo music so far.
