this adult contemporary station has been playing two songs overlapped over each other for the better part of an hour

http://www.magic1021fm.com/

thanks to emily.s for pointing this out, there are occasional moments of synchronicity and brilliance but also just kind of great how it lays bare the total autopilot pre-playlisted robo-DJ, every so often a "person" will "talk" as if nothing whatsoever is wrong

"you learn" and "don't you forget about me" just hit simultaneous climaxes, oh mannnn

break me up before you go away

ha, tuned in time for "wake me up before you gogo"/"breakaway"

omg what is happening

i want to hear this so bad, gf sleeping

jeepers i clicked on your link twice b/c my browser evidently hiccuped and now i am listening to staggered versions of wake me up before you go go and before i die i just want to say to god that i am so sorry for all those shitty things i did in this life

gulp

the "jitterbug" part of go-go worked REALLY well over "breakaway," i intend to steal that

like a prayer is just slapping the shit out of anything put against it though, kind of unlistenable

what is the non-like a prayer song?

LAP's jumps in tempo and tone are making this a totally amazing mess

no clue but according to emily i missed a promo bit with them saying "find out what our djs are thinking when they're not on the air!" you mean like, uh, right now?

katy perry has a song about listening to radiohead?? i am so divorced from our nation's popular culture

need to show pacman devouring mr. rubik's cube, else no credibility whatsoever, let's fac e it

hoping balls is involved with this somehow

"Sometimes when I miss you / I put those records on" (clattering radio station sound effect, new song starts up)

he's going to be mad if he's missing this, oh man

woah this is trippy

so, the first txt i got about this was at 10:26 (when they were playing boys of summer over shania twain, followed by moves like jagger, aka "Boys of Jagger") - - this must be some kind of record

Woah - - - what is playing right now!? this sounds great

if Mr. Pacman isn't vomiting up colored cubes then I guess i wasted my Sacajawea dollar

it's fair to say no human would have ever tried to overlap "every time you go away" and "brighter than the sun" but it ALmost... almost works.

this Skrillex song is lacking

That Colbie Caillat song sounds surprisingly menacing with "Every Time You Go Away" playing in the background.

oh shit something cool just happened with U2 and this "just how it starts" song

Mookie... afternoons on Magic 102-1

It was a beautiful day - brighter than the sun.

ahaha that's so awesome

THANK YOU CLEAR CHANNEL OVERLORDS

i feel like bono is doing something very invasive to my psyche right now. not cool

everyone on ILM who's not listening to this is going to be kicking themselves tomorrow, assuming anybody ever shows up to work at this station

It's still happening, yay!

Nobody ever shows up to work at this "station" except the IT guy.

EDGE OF ANTEBELLUM

TWO DIFFERENT EDGES OF ANTEBELLUM!

woah lady antebellum vs. the chikkachikkachikka of edge of seventeen by stevie nicks

i hope this station never gets fixes

i guess this dates me but i think of "adult contemporary" as being like, ambrosia or england dan with or w/o john ford coley, not katy perry songs that i hear when i'm umbrella-shopping in fiVeBELoW

i am DYING

lmfao "edges of antebellum"

You don't even know what the thing is yet. How big it can get, how far it can go. This is no time to take your chips down. One song isn't cool, you know what's cool? TWO songs.

everyone on ILM who's not listening to this is going to be kicking themselves tomorrow, assuming anybody ever shows up to work at this station

lol it's funnier if you parse that as implying that the bulk of ilm posters work the nite shift at this or similar stations

oh great it's john mayer

there's nothing wrong with john mayer that stevie nicks couldn't fix

chikkachikkachikka is now fighting off "your body is a wonderland," fairly successfully

lols to xxxpost

Who is this band? The Stevie Nicks impersonator is really spot-on, but the rhythm section needs a lot of practice.

so glad i didn't miss this

jesus john mayer is doing something positively unholy to the fleetwood mac lady right now

your adult contemporary format is a wonderland

oh mookiepaws

to be fair, it does have "contemporary" in the name, I basically think of it as exactly "what would overlap between the playlists at a grocery store, a dentist's office, and my students' ipods"

goddamn i really need to go to bed

oh wow, kiss me is overlapping beautifully here

ahahahah

i love how everything has this math rock thing going on

Doctor C for president of life

i was gonna say sixpence + john mayer sounded like glenn branca or something

"See, Ryan? This is what happens when we hire a deaf drummer!"

the math part is "102 plus 1"

all credit to emily.s (who forgot her ilx password and can't get a new one for some reason?) for giving me the heads up to this, now 58 minutes ago and still going strong!

the drumming in daughtry + sixpence reminds me of US Maple

the stevie + john mayer was amazing tho, it sounded like she was literally beating the shit out of him and he was gasping for air

yeah that was amazing

the sixpence accordion is rendering me absolutely helpless right now

Wiggles news!

sixpence outro over daughtry (i guess?) was really wistful and touching

wow this is really happening -- is this broadcast too or just online?

Oh. Hell. No.

PAULA COLE

broadcast, emily is northeast georgia

oh man i feel wanna be startin somethin has BIG potential in this format

"I Don't Wanna Wait For Somethin' To Be Startin'"

aw hell yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

loooool

LIVE

yessssssssssssssss!

holy s.

lol

that was great

YEHEEEEEEEEEE HA!

it took awhile but this new avalanches album turned out to be worth the wait

Okay, the breakdown here sounds amazing.

omg this beat

Did both of those songs end pretty much simultaneously?

!!!!!!

i should have been recording this

Wow this got super polyrhythmic

damn

This sounds like a nonesuch explorer record

for historical reference: "rumor has it" and "no one" together, there is something there....something very good

this is the first time i've heard "rumor has it," i feel any subsequent hearings will really be damaged

hahaha same here

fucking portishead does tomorrow never knows

This makes me want to always have two songs playing simultaneously.

what the fuck is going on here

this is the best thing happening in the world right now

i am stone sober and i cannot deal with this

oh my god benny mardones

Who the fuck is Bobby Mardones

"She's just sixteen years old..." "OH YEAHHHH!"

She's just 16 years old
OH YEAH!

Ha ha ha

he's a motherfucker that charted w/ the same record ten years apart show some respect

JFC, does every Maroon 5 song have this melody/chord progression?

battle of the creepy dudes

JFC, does every Maroon 5 song have this melody/chord progression?

maybe they'll overlap another one and we can check on that

this is like yacht rock psych warfare

through this maroon 5 fog this bobby mardones guy sounds a lot like eddie vedder

Oh no, is it over?!

oh no!!

;_;

thanks everyone for joining us, pour one out for emily.s who made it all possible

wait...did it fix itself

booooo

boo

if you're mad, get mad...don't hold it all inside.

at least we went out on the best/worst possible note

The Pretenders ruin everything.

i feel like i have to listen to this all night just in case it happens again

the only way i can bear this song is if i picture chrissy hynde singing it to a cow in the video

why does it have to be over? life is not fair

Really wanted to hear the Pretenders mixed with LMFAO. Sigh.

youtube doubler might ease the pain.

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

i posted this on FB and a friend of mine told me he recorded part of it

i can't believe you guys didn't know benny mardones

feel like i gotta start a benny mardones thread now

mardon't.

that was better than any girl talk CD

i remember "into the night" all too well from family road trips

it wasn't, really

the highlights were high though, and more satisfying because it felt like you were the one discovering them

for real though this station played me on air once getting too excited they were gonna play 'the look of love' during the phil hughes honda all request lunch

<3

can't begin to tell you how many times that story has gotten me laid

he's not kidding i've seen how excited he gets just singing "the look of love" at karaoke

someone needs to forward this to ken @ wfmu

my friend joe upped a short fragment to sound cloud

http://soundcloud.com/joeveix/magic1021

MAYBE THAT WAS JEFF MANGUM DJING

oh shi

kudos to your friend joe! really wish i'd hit record at the beginning and caught the best bits, although what would i have done with em, really

my brain is still fried

I hope someone here works a sample of this into the Animal Collective pre-cover

lol yeah now i'm like "what else could i possibly do tonight"

ditto, whatever i was planning to do during that hour got sort of scuttled and it's hard to pick back up, may as well just go to bed and try again tomorrow

this is kind of a good idea for an actual radio station

What a beautiful moment we shared.

i'm so sad i missed this

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I just tuned in to find that they've corrected the problem, which is enough of a blow, but then I was subjected to OneRepublic in addition to that and now I want to cry.

Dawson's Creek theme song and "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" was a surprisingly effective mashup, if you want to try this at home.

do do doo do do mama say mama sa?

that was the only one i heard, and it did sound kind of...palatable? i am sorry to have missed benny mardones though. that song rules.

the benny mardones mashup can be heard on the soundcloud link that donna rouge posted upthread

The first line of the Mardones mashup was just amazing.

dammit!

John Cage award

i'm so sad i missed this

^ Was completely busy last night so I only found out after the fact on Twitter. Would kill for a full recording of it.

to think I could have tuned in over the airwaves, if only I had known

someone called me while this was going on and i answered the phone giggling hysterically and trying to explain it to the person who was just like "uh...ok. are you alright?"

it really was pretty amazing though. john mayer/stevie nicks all-time moment

this was really special

Yeah, those of you who missed it, it's not like it was continuous genius light from heaven for 65 minutes, but there were some real flashes of not-to-be-repeated perfection.

You guys, I SAW MOOKIE OUT AT A BAR TONIGHT

Are there highlights on Youtube yet?

I imagine it's a lot more impressive when he does that mashup thing live. Real turntable wizard, that guy.

(ps welcome back emilys!!)

why won't this ever happen again

LISTEN TO Z107.7 IN ST LOUIS RIGHT NOW

applause vs wake me up

noooo it's over already :( :( :(

this happened to another st louis station tonight, the urban ac station kmjm 100.3

i was only in the car for like 10 minutes but joe's "i wanna know" was overlapping ledisi's "i blame you" and some dj chatter... i don't know how long it continued but 1.5 hours later things were back to normal :(

this is called moneybags

lol

Tonight the ice cream truck theme locked in PERfectly with this booming bassy dance beat coming from my neighbor's yard. Boded well for the summer.

Sheee's just sixteen years old... OH YEAH-EH!
