Well I think this is the best the OP's ever looked. Nixed a bunch of stuff that was a stretch to include in the first place and it's not split up between two pages anymore (what was I thinking?!). Still gotta listen to December's episode, happy new year everybody

thanks so so very much for once again drawing that thinking fellers playlist by geo!!!
I thought it was buried in the bowels of the internet.
got into AC through pavement and tful282, so it was really fascinating and insightful to see the song choices...
thanks again big time, makes me happy to find this again.

Aw thanks!

IS there anywhere you can download the O'Brien shows? I'd love to listen to these mixes without having to be logged onto the internet, they're so good and I've missed so many of them! Thanks!

You could try the NTS app maybe? I doubt it though because they seem to operate entirely through mixcloud which has pretty strict rules even when it comes to streaming.

One quick request, if I may, I've read through this thread several times without being able to find the O' Brien System demo compilation mentioned in another thread. Could anyone point me in the right direction, please? Thanks.

Could someone re-up this? The link is dead and I'm still trying to recover stuff I lost from my SD card crapping out on me

Much appreciated

Latest obrien and avey's dublab mix are now in op. Still haven't listened myself but must be some special stuff by the looks of it

Post **Posted:** Tue Mar 26, 2019 8:16 am

Catching up on DJ sets, Avey's Analogue Players mix is really good. Kicking myself because I reached out to Avey on IG to get a song name and they said the band in the interview lol. Sounds like there's a Portishead song in there I've never heard before.

In my last big edit I took out Coral Morphologic's spotify playlists but those are back in the Year of the Reef section, it belongs in there

New episode of The O’Brien System airs today on NTS2 from 12-1 PM PDT. This month’s show is dedicated to 2009 AC touring. As we mentioned back in January, we’ll be doing a few things throughout the year to commemorate the 10th anniversary of MPP, so today I’ll visit some moments from our 2009 soundboard recordings in a mix we call “Crispy Pops”. More about the journeys than the destinations if you know what I mean… You’ll get the point, even if we never get to it. Plus songs from a few of those who shared the stage with us that year. Tune OUT!

idk what's going on in thix broadcast but i love it

even despite the constant blueballs

Post **Posted:** Tue Apr 02, 2019 7:25 pm

"blueballs" nails it! super spaced out compilation of song transitions and snippets, all sounding real tasty.

Post **Posted:** Wed Apr 03, 2019 3:41 am

This mix was so much fun...like a board members mix but done with the resources the band has...loved so many of these parts over the years and having them all in a band-mixed single track is so sweet

Post **Posted:** Wed Apr 03, 2019 3:22 pm

haha the only one that got me disappointed the song wasn't starting was Summertime Clothes, i was ready for the beat to kick in. pretty neat!

Post **Posted:** Fri Apr 05, 2019 6:06 pm

Crispy pops is in the op, special thanks to JordanRandall for the youtube and DL! I was considering including the transitions in tracklist but that'd make it too busy

Post **Posted:** Thu May 09, 2019 1:21 am

This months Obrien system seems to be in limbo bc of the long songs. Fingers crossed it gets archived soon.

Listened to Aveys guest DJ Dublab spot again and it’s very solid stuff, good tunes and latter half feels like the most overtly political avey (or any of them) has/have gotten through mix. I knew enough of the songs to scrap together a list (in OP now) and others were goggleable.

Post **Posted:** Thu May 09, 2019 2:03 pm

AC commented on the obrien instagram post: "the guy who archives the episodes on the LA feed was on vacation last week. Coming soon."

Post **Posted:** Tue May 21, 2019 2:36 am

Latest episode has been archived. Geo mentions New Psycho Actives and possibly a new volume someday. Makes me feel better having vol I in the OP LOL

Post **Posted:** Tue Jul 02, 2019 8:13 pm

Er! Geo announced an Obrien system a week ago but he never showed up on the NTS schedule and still no archive. Maybe he announced it early, we'll see

Post **Posted:** Wed Jul 03, 2019 2:42 pm

His show is scheduled exactly every 4 weeks, so it was definitely supposed to be on last Tuesday. When I checked a few days in advance, he was on the schedule but when I checked on Tuesday morning he no longer was. For some reason they had a guest host in his time slot.

I imagine the show isn't actually DJ'd live(?) so my guess is that he submitted his mix too late or something. Or maybe that guest host was someone particularly important so they just pushed him out? No idea what actually happened but I wouldn't imagine he'll have another episode until the next time in 3 weeks.

Post **Posted:** Tue Jul 16, 2019 4:43 pm

Obrien system is back on the schedule for next Tuesday (23rd). I'm guessing he'll just do the set he planned for last month

Post **Posted:** Tue Jul 16, 2019 7:45 pm

Nice! I'm looking forward to it

Post **Posted:** Tue Jul 23, 2019 7:08 pm

E: It's playing now. Sure enough what he would've played last time. On IG he says there was a miscommunication with NTS. He does say he's taking a Month off. Probably practicing with the guys.

Post **Posted:** Tue Jul 23, 2019 7:42 pm

taking this month off, not a future one. but yeah probably for practicing and living life. should be back on the regular schedule going forward

can't believe the show has been going for over two years already

Post **Posted:** Fri Aug 02, 2019 4:00 pm

Latest O’Brien is up and archived, info in the OP.

Also 5 hour mix on Spotify through the Numero Group. I’ll try to get the info in the op at lunch

Post **Posted:** Fri Aug 02, 2019 8:33 pm

Thanks! Yeah it looks like a good mix, may have to get into it this weekend, hope my new headphones show up this weekend. List and info in the OP now.

Post **Posted:** Wed Aug 07, 2019 6:21 pm

Er! The Numero Group playlist includes past guest mixes, I've updated the OP to reflect ACs portion of the playlist. Thanks again to a certain reliable Poster

Post **Posted:** Thu Aug 22, 2019 2:14 am

Latest O’Brien archived and info in op

Post **Posted:** Tue Sep 17, 2019 8:09 pm

Dang, had fingers crossed for a Feels demo ("I'm Your Eagle Kisser" which Dave referenced ages ago) or maybe alt mix of a song with higher Eyvind Kang parts which Geo pondered way back. They spoil us enough, good mix!

Post **Posted:** Wed Sep 18, 2019 11:16 pm

New O'brien archived and in the OP. Never heard that Beck song before, good stuff.

Post **Posted:** Tue Oct 15, 2019 4:42 pm

Here are all of their DJ sets from the live streams.

Thank you! I'm glad there's a renewed interest of sorts in the DJ sets. I've got some updating to do, cheers

Post **Posted:** Tue Nov 03, 2020 9:11 pm
