Here's another from the Chainsaw archive, digitised by Mr. Gallon, then incremented and shared here by me - meaning I've edited the two sound files (one for each side of the tape) into individual tracks for ease of listening, beyond which Richard has done a great job of sending me material which has thus far required little or no further attention regarding the EQ and so on - barring the first couple of minutes of this one lacking the full treble which is obviously a tape flaw and nothing either of us could do much about.
Radio Hajra is a new one on me, compiled by Paul Nonnen (Swing Jugend, Smell & Quim, Foldhead and others) and his pal Mark Martin with the intention of providing a slightly broader range of weird noises than had become the norm for 1989, hence the presence of screwy Beefheart-style blues growling in amongst the tape loops, musique concrete, improvisation and Rabelaisian noise. You'll probably recognise a couple of names - Ethnic Acid, Human Flesh, Bene Gesserit, and Mystery Hearsay amongst at least a few members of the extended Smell & Quim family; but the standard is high and the variety is such that there's nothing you have to sit through to get to the next decent track. One of the stand-outs is, I would say, the Abstract Skulls thing, and I've no fucking clue who they were.
If you're bored listening to this one, you probably need to seek medical advice.
