I am still having problems with my mixer. I replaced the USB audio interface, but the mixer is still cutting in and out and I’m getting bizarre effects at times. I also am still hearing radio interference when the mixer is on. I am not a happy camper. Obviously something is loose.

I just watched the six-part 1996 BBC miniseries “Neverwhere” by Neil Gaiman and Lenny Henry. It was wonderful, though it was obviously filmed in low-budget videotape and the quality suffered greatly, reminding me of 1970s era Dr. Who. Neverwhere was a fantasy series involving a young Scottish guy named Richard who lived in London and who was engaged to be married, but a chance encounter with a young woman named Door who had been stabbed changed him and brought him into an alternative world called “London Below” as opposed to “London Above.” Brian Eno contributed the haunting score. There are quests, ordeals, betrayals, scary encounters, assassinations, riddles, and puzzles, and the episodic formula led to an adventure game quality. The series is out on DVD but I found it on Netflix Instant Watch.

For the music on today’s show, I play the southern-rock tinged “Jellyroll Lovin” by the one-man Ukranian band Freeky Cleen from the album Street Roots. I found the song on MusicAlley by Mevio.
