An Assortment of Audio Ailments - The Auris Apothecary label

Tuesday Mayhem 15 6PM-10PM PDT

Hosted by Max Level

This label based in Bloomington, IN embraces obscure formats, atypical packaging, and DIY ethics. Wide-ranging sounds from ukulele ballads to headcrushing metal. AA is notorious for, among other things, their "anti-records" releases in various formats that can be difficult, sometimes nearly impossible, to play. Tune in and find out what's up with that. We will also have a few strange/beautiful things to give away to lucky listeners.
