	The Sound of Plaid - 2012.01.19 - THEME: Outsider Music On this episode we explore the "so bad it's good" world of Outsider Music. We play plenty of outside music regularly enough that I'm surprised we haven't dedicated a whole show to it previously.

	The Sound of Plaid - 2011.12.15 - WeirdCast Somewhen in the early days of Shoutcast (1998?) I was thrilled about the idea but didn't have the content. Thus was born WeirdCast... or was it StrangeCast? I can't remember, but it was a spontaneous perpetual broadcast shuffling together a duo of vocal samples with instrumental/non-vocal samples. The combo still works! There's something strangely intentional in its randomness. Listen for yourself... The Sound of Plaid - 2011.12.15 ...
	The Sound of Plaid - 2011.12.08 - During Which We Bend Time It's a simple studio trick -- slow down the tape recorder, record lyrics, speed it back up, and voila -- The Chipmunks were born.

	The Sound of Plaid - 2011.11.10 - Bruce Haack Before Moog sold his first synthesizer, Bruce Haack was making his reputation as a pioneer of electronic music through the unlikely outlet of children's music.

Though Haack died in 1988, his work and legend started growing a decade later and now even his unreleased albums have been released posthumously. Most of this episode's music is by Bruce Haack and Esther Nelson; there are also tracks from Dick Hyman, BBC Radiophonic Workshop, Beck, Tipsy, and Danielson Familie...
