PLAYLISTS - New Iowa Music on Bandcamp 2

This is just another in our long series of playlists. And like the name says, this one features the latest music by Iowa artists that I could find on Bandcamp. It features a blend of experimental, metal, instrumental, and electronic music, with a punk tune as well!

IHEARIC PODCAST - Episode 57: Justin's Modal Exploration (01/13/2018)

I had to reschedule this week's planned guest (stay tuned for February 3rd...). I've been obsessively working on a new composition for the past few days, so I decided that I'd use this week's show to present, demonstrate, and test drive some components of MODAL EXPLORATION!

The patch uses University of Iowa EMS instrument samples, found here: theremin.music.uiowa.edu/MIS.html
Will Huff's "HarpMusic" was an inspiration for Modal Exploration, and you can find his music here: huffcomposer.com
I adapted some data from David Huron's book Sweet Anticipation to help the patch convey the different modes. Check out Huron's research here: csml.som.ohio-state.edu/Huron
I've also made a lot of other music, which you can find all of these places: justinkcomer.com / justinkcomer.bandcamp.com / soundcloud.com/justin-comer-1 / youtube.com/justinkcomer / facebook.com/justinkcomer / twitter.com/justinkcomer / instagram.com/justinkcomer

Our next (*FREE*) iHearIC concert will be 1/25 8pm at The Mill, featuring performances by Maul of America, The Twisted Roots, and Treecloud! RSVP and invite your friends here: facebook.com/events/386069291938789

Next Sunday's show will be a preview of the 1/25 concert and will be broadcast live at 4pm on KRUI (krui.fm)!

PLAYLISTS - Random Iowa Music YouTube Playlist 3

Once again, using a random sampling method, we picked out 5 videos featuring Iowa artists.

And diverse lot this is! We start out with the countrified pop of The Nadas, then some experimental music with saxaphone, a polka parody, some more experimental music, and finally close out with some hard rock, showing once again the diversity of Iowa music!

IHEARIC PODCASTS - Episode 24: chaircrusher (05/20/2018)

Last week I teased a guest appearance from Kent Williams (aka chaircrusher). Unfortunately he had to go out of town and couldn't join me in the studio, BUT he was kind enough to record some brand new music and an interview with his friend and collaborator Derek Piotr. In his place, Michele Guild returned to co-host with me in her third appearance on the show. We closed out today's show by brainstorming ideas for our upcoming project, the impedecast.

PLAYLISTS - Random Iowa Music on Bandcamp 2

Well, we once again present a random sampling of Iowa music found on Bandcamp.

This time around, we seemed to have ended up with a lot of electronic and ambient music, though there is one gospel song on here.

The gods of serendipity can be a strange lot!

IHEARIC VIDEOS - Lwa Live and in Pitch Darkness at The Englehart Theater in Iowa City on Oct 25, 2010

"Hailing from from Iowa City, Lwa usually consists of 2 core members who use a battery of electronic devices (from the hand built to the scavanged from garage sale, university surplus, etc) to produce strange aural landscapes. From the duo's inception in '03, their focus has shifted from cathartic, impenetrable tidal noise to dark skeletal pop structures with the collaboration of NIMBY's homemade electric drums, to their current mode. Collecting a great number of field recordings, the duo now focus on restrained and minimal tones emulating and embellishing the base of field recordings.

"Through out these years, the group has been active in their community, though touring is rare. They've played with many like-minded sound artists such as: Tim Hecker, Greg Davies, Kent Williams, Rene Hell, C. Spencer Yeh, Wet Hair, Boris, The Tanks, Melt-Banana, Outer Space, Moth Cock, David Daniell, Wolf Eyes, Raglani, Hair Police, Awesome Color, Sightings, Mountains, Gowns, and many, many other talented out-artists.

"Their recorded output is rare, since they primarily focus on a preparing a different set for each of their gigs. There have been a few tapes, CDRs, and a split lathe 10 inch. All in limited quantity. There exist several studio outings, though the bulk of their work has been documented in various live settings."

YOUR OWN PRIVATE IOWA - Episode 13: Michaela Thompson

(You might have noticed we skipped Episode 12. It featured a band from Phoenix, Snailmate. No offemce, but this is a site dedicated to IOWA music.

You can still listen to the interview here - https://yourownprivateiowa.bandcamp.com/track/episode-12-snailmate-part-1-of-2)

Last week local singer-songwritter and student Michaela Thompson sat down in the studio with me. We talked about her musical career and infuences, and about the road moving forward and her progresssion as an artist. It was a fun conversation, with some beautiful acoustic tunes to go along with!

This podcast is powered by ZenCast.fm All Recordings done in the Studio at [88.5 KURE Ames Alternative]

YOUR OWN PRIVATE IOWA - Episode 8: QuërVo

What an impressive show QuërVo put on in the studio this week! Electronic music is something I did not know much about going into this episode, and honestly soemthing I didnt know Jose did, I had only seen him drum in Mumford's and play guitar with I.B.AIBU. I was compleatly blown away by his set, and the fact that he explained everything to me and the listener was a great way to show the entire set off. He plays and makes some really cool electronic music, as well as playing songs from other projects like Dr. Murdock. Jose gets really passionate and into everything he talks about, making for one of my most interesting episodes yet!

IOWA MUSIC SHOWCASE PODCAST - Episode 54: Happy Hawkeye Halloween 2017, Part 3 of 4 - The Van Meter Visitor and Other Iowa Dragons

Welcome to this year's third installment of an enticing index of hawkeye musical horrors!

In this aural assault, we present an unique unit of punk, experimental, electronic, progressive, psychedelic, goth, metal, and industrial rock music to give creepiess and crawlies.


And to help with the creepies and crawlies, we present a little lecture on The Van Meter Visitor and Other Iowa Dragons.

Art by Dean Sturtevant

http://greenunicornart.com/

https://www.facebook.com/GreenUnicornArt/

In 1903, apparently some smelly manbat creature terrorized the town of Van Meter, shooting a bright light out of its head. Bullets had no effect on it.

It was said to have come out of the mines. And after it finished harassing the town, it was never seen from again.

Whether it had anything to do with the strange "flying ships" with strange men that crashed 8 years earlier in Iowa is unknown.


In the early 2000s, Burlington residents saw a strange flying reptile with a 15-foot wing span and snake-like body flying over its town.

And supposably, the city of Grand Mound sees them regularly.


And sort of related, a giant crow with a 8 foot wingspan was spotted between Marshalltown and Nevada in 2009.


So some nice pleasant stories to think as you listen to the following tunes....

OTHER SOURCES: An Iowa Noise Music Compilation

Although it doesn't have a big following, the noise music scene here is still strong. What the scene lacks in numbers, it makes up in dedication.

One of these days, I plan on doing a podcast episode on Iowa's more experimental music, including noise. But for now, I can give you this compilation put together by The Centipede Farm, an Iowa record label that has supported the noise scene for many years.

But in the meantime, here's a compilation put out by Centipede Farmer, who is well known to the noise and metal music scenes.
