Hi everyone, welcome to Heavy Friends! Hey hillbilly... indeed Goat are a bit of a mystery but I can assure you that they are indeed real musicians. Overlap with Hills and knows what else.

Dope beats. Had not heard of Wordburglar/Beatmason. Happy end of 2022!

Ben Armstrong (host)
Napalm Dan, if you never heard Burg before better plant yourself down like an herbivore. Say hey to the Montreal peeps

Something weird about listening live to something I could've listened to in the past, something wired about listening in, period... always love listening live, Ben. Cheers

Amazing show in the best traditions of CKCU. Solid entertainment 100%

9:48 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Ben Armstrong (host)
I appreciate your comment, hillbilly. It's a complex topic around profanity for effect and taking it to uncalled for places. I like hip hop for the production skills and rappers expressing themselves. Unfortunately there is a lot of pointless boasting, violence and swearing.

Chris I.
fun ride Ben!

9:49 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Ben Armstrong (host)
Yes Dan that Ingredient album is a cool new one out of Toronto. Gotta keep an ear on Telephone Explosion.

9:50 PM, December 3rd, 2022

Thank you Terry! 47 years of CKCU is quite the tradition now...
