The highlight of episode 67 — which is a wander through the catalogue of Telephone Explosion Records — is Chandra. Chandra is the daughter of the late conceptual artist Dennis Oppenheim, and has been frequently included in his works. As a young girl she has been immediately exposed to artists like Steve Reich, Gordon Matta-Clark and Philip Glass (known to the family as Phil). Aged eight, she was delivering performance pieces at the Kitchen, the infamous downtown arts space; by 12 she was the leader of the post-punk band Chandra. Now she continues to tour the music of Chandra with new band members. Schedule permitting, her 11-year-old daughter sometimes performs with them. The episode features: Charles Ditto, Fist Of Facts, Teenanger, Chandra, Bruce Haack, Freak Heat Waves, Moss Lime, Bob Bell, Badge Époque Ensemble, Melodic Energy Commission, Chandra and Deliluh.
