Welcome back. A few years ago, in 2010, the radio station WFMU posted a wonderful set of songs on its incredible blog.

Both songs had the identical title, "Marijuana, the Devil's Flower", or "MTDF" for short. I fell in love with both of these tracks and have pined for an opportunity to do something fun with them. For this week's program, hear MTDF turned into a shortwave radio broadcast signal, using an RF Nomad and an AModulator. Then hear MTDF looped oddly through a set of samplers. Here's a set of soundcloud links:

I was going to call this one "The Bong Bunker" but thought better of it.

Back next week and may all marijuana temptations only be heard, never consumed! - Ethan (Bandcamp/Soundcloud)
