Turntabling Back From Horrorhound Weekend In Columbus

Turntabling survived the Columbus 2012 Horrorhound Weekend, and what an amazing time it was! The show was jam-packed with people, there were plenty of vinyl junkies dropping by and many of you showed your support of Turntabling by purchasing vinyl and CDs, which is greatly appreciated.

We probably don’t do a very good job of communicating that the purchases at Horrorhound, Cinema Wasteland, all the other shows we do directly support Turntabling.net and keep it alive and kicking. ALL vinyl and CD sales from the shows and online are basically funding the existence of Turntabling.

And for that we are very grateful. This site would literally NOT EXIST if it weren’t for the wonderful people who support us with their purchases. THANK YOU.

And with that in mind, Turntabling shows up again Friday March 30th for Cinema Wasteland, one of the most exciting conventions we do. We’ll be there for another incredible weekend of fun, vinyl, and cinema. It’s at the Holiday Inn on Royalton Road in Strongsville, Ohio, just minutes from downtown Cleveland. The show is located just off the Ohio Turnpike (I-80/90) & I-71. Come join us!!!

Paisley Babylon Presents Mash-Up Found Sound Headphone Trip “TV Party, Radio Riot”

For the uninitiated, Paisley Babylon is the name/project moniker I’ve been working under since 1996 as both a DJ and recording artist. Over at the Paisley Babylon official site, there’s a post of an hour-long mashup/audio sculpture/experimental curated cutup called TV Party, Radio Riot.

I recorded and edited it back in 2001, released it in a limited form in 2002 and it’s been gathering dust ever since. It’s about time it saw the light of day and it’s now available as a free MP3 download for a limited time.

I’m putting things like this out now because I’m getting ready to start recording and producing more found sound/mashup and audio collage programs as part of a project I’m working on. Where it will go, nobody knows, but it’s exciting to be working in audio in this way–not 100% music, not 100% found sound, not all mashups or collage, but a melange of approaches, techniques and disciplines. Christian Marclay is definitely an inspiration here but I aim to take the project far beyond the turntable–thought vinyl does play a very large part in the project.
