Isotopica

Communist Party Manifesto in Morse Code

I believe we have finally satisfied a glaring gap in the great free market, a fully listenable, full rendering of the Communist Party Manifesto in Morse Code, please share this, and then sit back, listen , and see the world catch fire.........

The Isotopica studio during our seance, channeling the magnificent Delia Derbyshire who helps us to understand THERE IS NO GOD, phew!

Recording today's episode required more than the usual studio set up

oh dear, there is no god

Delia Derbyshire could spot the individual instruments in the grooves of a vinyl recording. Perhaps she had gifts from heaven.

Delia (with her colleagues at the bbc radiophonic workshop) invented techno electronic music, was instrumental in developing sampling and was light years ahead of the world she inhabited.

I recently listen to a small selection of her work and felt dwarfed in its presence. Today's episode is an homage........

For starters we look at my bank statements

Bankers, just what are they good for?

Free of One’s Melancholy Self

A very big Quaalude

Often prescribed to nervous housewives, a quaalude was something between a sleeping pill and a sedative. First synthesized in the late fifties, by 1965 ’ludes were being manufactured by William H. Rorer Inc., a Pennsylvania pharmaceutical company. The name “quaalude” is both a play on “Maalox,” another product manufactured by William H. Rorer Inc., and a synthesis of the phrase “quiet interlude”—a concept so simple and often so out of reach. Just whisper “quiet interlude” to yourself a few times. Seductive, no? It’s the pill in the “take a pill and lie down” directive thousands of Don Drapers gave their Bettys.

Personally i was lucky enough to have a few years when the english version of Methaqualone Maandrax was still just available on our very black market. In the very early eighties i managed to get several boxes of a South African branded capsules which were that last of this particular drug i have every seen.

 

There are no mention of Quaaludes in this episode, they just sprang to mind while writing this podcast, yet would certainly have been on Edie's regular lists.

 

 

This week the third marlboro man dies of smoking related disease,

therefore we listen to unrelated euphonics and a malboro advert

whoops

Poly Styrene joins us for a very youthful chat

xray spex late 70's.Lora Logic was a brief date before Heroin won for me and Hari Krishna won for her (i never did meet him)

Welcome to Foul Britannia

a country of happy turkeys working hard for a happy Christmas

The current Fascist Fashion in Foul Britannia

These fools are the new Eugenicists, the wagers of a very Class War

Things couldn't be better for the Happy couple above, their class has stolen trillion of pounds of public money, while the public from whose pockets it has come, turn on each other in small minded nationalism. It's class comedy of the highest order. The safeguards and frameworks for the majority, so bitterly won from the plutocratic minority in the Twentieth Century are being dismantled and sold off at a loss in a hilarious fire sale, it's Naomi Klein's shock doctrine writ large, the evidence of the crime so massive, so obvious and so tragically ignored!

THe first in the all new 2014 season of isotopica begins with a delicious sample of Richard Burton as Leon Trotsky, the relevance of which, hopefully never quite becomes clear.

This was taken from a sadly badly made 1972 film by Joseph Losey titled,

The Assassination Of Trotsky
