08 Dec 2023Iowa Basement Tapes #279 12-07-2023 GUEST: Curtis Howard of Chemical Buffet01:01:49

Night Listeners -

I have been teasing this interview for almost two months! Curt Howard of Chemical Buffet is our guest. Chemical Buffet was a project I discovered just from doing this show. Chuck Hoffman contributed a trash bag of demo tapes almost four years ago and one of those tapes was the original five song sampler for Chemical Buffet. Fast forward a few years later I meet Curt through mutual friends just going to shows and movies together. Now here we are.

05 Jul 2024Iowa Basemen Tapes #309 07-04-2024 6th Anniversary Show & Happy anniversary 4th of July!01:00:48

Night Listeners -

Six years ago this show debuted at 9PM Thursday July 5th, 2018 on 98.9FM KFMG in Des Moines, Iowa. We didn't have our show opener (the broadcast sign off) and I was literally pulling songs from my collection of demos and private press recordings of Iowa bands. Ben Smasher's 319 Dude Bandcamp Archive was a big source for material. We are opening with the same song we opened with six years ago, Moveable Feast's "The End of the World" off the Another Iowa Compilation.... Uncharted Territories LP. This was a way to share my collection with people and to indulge in Iowa's history of punk rock, hardcore, metal, etc. Now we are on four stations, a flourishing podcast, and our Bandcamp Archive so that these recordings don't disappear into the ether. 

  1. Moveable Feast - "The End of the World" / Another Iowa Compilation (Des Moines)
  2. Red Throb - "My Gun" / Bend Over (Iowa City)
  3. House of Large Sizes - "What if There is a Fire?" / Another Iowa Compilation (Cedar Falls)
  4. Meth and Goats - "Art Corpse" / Attack from Meth and Goats Mountain (Quad Cities)
  5. The Hollowmen - "Never Ending Ceiling" / Iowa Compilation Vol. 1 (Des Moines)
  6. Deerslayer - "Phantom Sweeps" / Guitar Cryer (Cedar Rapids)
  7. Annalibera - "Black Cat White Cat" / Nevermind I Love You (Des Moines)
  8. The Ballet - "The UAW Hall" / We Were Wild Buffalo (Quad Cities)
  9. Mr. Nasti - "Like a Wild Animal" / Truth Sound (Fairfield)
  10. Cursing Birds - "Popey Sally" / Iowa Compilation Vol. 1 (Iowa City)
  11. Captain Three Leg - "Iowa Basement Tapes promo" (Ottumwa)
  12. Genital Hercules - "Theme from Cheers" / Live at Gabes 5-22-2004 (Cedar Rapids)
  13. In Loving Memory - "Song #2 One Fate Fraught Night Back in '91" / Split with Black Market Fetus (Des Moines)
  14. Glass Ox - "Fear Riders" / Temptress (Marshalltown)
  15. The Horrors - "Back in the Cut" / The Horrors (Cedar Rapids)

Night Listeners -

It only makes sense to open tonights show with Nuclear Winter by Stickdog. It was -20° with the windchill today. I took my trash bins to the curb and just touching the plastic burned my bare hand. Nature is wild and there is really only two or three months out of the year that the weather isn't trying to kill you. Makes you feel alive.

15 Mar 2024Iowa Basement Tapes #293 03-14-2024 Fun With Electronics!01:00:18

Night Listeners -

We are trying something different tonight and everything is electronic. I don't know if this was the right move or not but in true IBT fashion we have a pro-produced slick tracks mixed with the best of the bedroom electronic noise projects. One note I want to make is the inclusion of both EHI and Deerslayer. EHI was a Des Moines based noise project by Brian Noring who also started the FDR Tape label. Deerslayer was the basement experimental solo act of Adam Groves of The PeePees, Brazil, and Wheel and the Fence. Both of these are probably the most elusive of everything I will play. Homemade and true to the core value of this style of music.

  1. Finally Some Action - "Neon" / Finally Some Action (Keokuk)
  2. fellfields - "Mild Peril" / The Jinx Shield (Iowa City)
  3. Ghost Light - "Blood Borne" / Midnight Movies (Waterloo)
  4. Goldendust - "Forever Midnight" / Goldendust (Iowa City)
  5. Mr. Softheart - "Flower of Tomorrow" / Caravaggio (Cedar Falls)
  6. Mr. Softheart - "Caravaggio" / Caravaggio (Cedar Falls)
  7. EHI - "Stuffed" / A Fear of Staircases (Des Moines)
  8. Double Dice - "It's Tuesday" / ISM (Des Moines)
  9. Deerslayer - "Dumpster Pump + Hot Hump" / dr660 Emo Dishwasher (Cedar Rapids)
  10. Pitch Black Manor - "I Want You to Haunt Me" / Scream Team (Quad Cities)
  11. Skyscraper - "Luia" / Slow to Anger (Des Moines)
  12. Nightrazor - "Omen" / Gash (Des Moines)
  13. Chemical Buffet - "Music in the Hallways" / 30 Years of Obscurity Vol 1 (Des Moines)
