DBWS 2-29 Happy Happy Birthday To Me Ep. 2 with Mike Turner

This time, we’re going even deeper into the story of HHBTM Vol. 1, the legendary compilation that captured a wildly creative moment at the brink of a legendary record label.

Mike takes us inside the making of the comp—the bands, the friendships, the discoveries, the stories behind the songs, and what it was like building a label around a community of musicians who were creating some of the most exciting music happening anywhere.

And, of course, we’re listening along the way.

This episode features music from of Montreal, Elf Power, The Masters of the Hemisphere, The Minders, Marshmallow Coast, and more as Mike gives us the stories behind the artists and songs that helped make HHBTM Vol. 1 such a special snapshot of its time.

It’s part oral history, part mixtape, and a full-on celebration of the beautiful interconnected world of independent music.

So put on your headphones, dig through the record collection, and join us for another deep dive into the wonderfully weird world of Happy Happy Birthday To Me Records.

Don’t Bother Wearing Seatbelts — Episode 2-29: Happy Happy Birthday To Me with Mike Turner, Part Two.

DBWS 2-22 Azalia Snail

We are honored to be joined by the one and only Azalia Snail — the legendary “Queen of Lo-Fi.” A true pioneer of the 1990s underground, Azalia helped shape the sound of home recording, neo-psychedelia, experimental pop, and the DIY universe that so many artists continue to explore today.

She is a songwriter, a multi-instrumentalist, a sonic explorer — and someone whose life story almost feels like the indie rock version of Forrest Gump. Somehow, someway, Azalia has crossed paths with everyone from Beck during the explosion of the lo-fi movement to the legendary Dick Van Dyke — collecting stories that sound too magical to be real.

In this episode, we talk about her incredible journey, the freedom of making art without rules, and her brand new album coming out on Cloud Recordings — a perfect home for an artist who has always lived in the clouds, creating her own universe one song at a time.

So sit back, open your mind, and enjoy our conversation with the endlessly fascinating Azalia Snail.

DBWS Episode 20: Of Montreal with Andy Gonzales

In this episode of Don’t Bother Wearing Seatbelts, we sit down with former Of Montreal member Andy Gonzales to dive deep into Of Montreal’s beloved Elephant 6 classic, Coquelicot Asleep in the Poppies: A Variety of Whimsical Verse.

Andy takes us behind the scenes of the album’s creation, sharing incredible stories about recording the entire project on tape, the experimental spirit surrounding the sessions, and the bizarre, beautiful world of the album’s many invented characters. We talk about the record’s constant musical zig zags, its fearless creativity, and why Coquelicot remains one of the most adventurous and unique albums to come out of the Elephant 6 universe.

We also learn the hilarious story of how Andy first joined Of Montreal, along with reflections on the collaborative magic of that era and what made those recordings feel so alive and unpredictable.

If you love Elephant 6, psychedelic pop, strange storytelling, or hearing how truly inventive records get made, this is an episode you won’t want to miss. Andy also dives into his band Marshmallow Coast, and being a former member of The Music Tapes.

DBWS 2-17 Devine and Devine and Rishis

In this one, we’re diving into two mini classic episodes from our first season that still feel as alive and necessary now as they did then. First up is Chris McKay’s Devine and Devine — a record born out of the kind of circumstance that reshapes everything. Faced with his own mortality, Chris didn’t just write songs, he tore up the rulebook and created in a way that feels raw, immediate, and a little bit confrontational. It’s intimate in a way that might make you uncomfortable at times, but that’s the point. You can hear the weight of it, but also the clarity. It’s not just an album, it’s a document of someone pushing through, finding a way to make something beautiful while staring down the hardest truth there is.

From there, we reconnect with several members of The Rishis, where the conversation keeps circling back to one thing above all else: community. Not just the idea of it, but the lived-in, built-over-time kind that has always defined the Elephant 6 Collective. There’s a real emphasis on showing up for each other, sharing ideas freely, and creating in a way that feels connected rather than isolated. Coming out of the pandemic, that sense of togetherness feels even more intentional — like the music isn’t just about new records, but about keeping the spirit of collaboration and friendship alive, no matter what the world throws at it.

Per usual, we try to stick to the records… but you know how that goes. Conversations drift, stories unfold, and before long we’re deep in the weeds talking about creativity, community, and why this whole weird, wonderful scene still matters so much.

This one goes deep.

DBWS 2-10 “Leap Through Poisoned Air” with Andrew Reiger

In the summer of 2025, the world was treated to new music by not only Andrew Reiger of Elf Power, but also Will Cullen Hart of Olivia Tremor Control and Circulatory System. It was  a collaboration that dated back to the late 90s when the two lived together. And while Hart is sadly no longer with us, Andrew was more than willing to discuss all the details with the Seatbelts crew.

DBWS 2.9 “Are You Sleepy?” with The Gerbils

While not as prominent as some other bands, the Elephant 6 Movement owes a great deal of its foundation in Rustin, Louisiana to an astoundingly great band called The Gerbils.

Try not to smile, laugh, cry, and just tap your toes to the music and words of this charmingly naive band that greatly exceeds their limitations.

Plus this episode from our first season, re-edited with more music, is both entertaining and full of insider information regarding the early days of the E6 world.

Keep your fingers crossed we can bring them back for an episode on the band’s other album “The Battle of Electricity”.

DBWS 2.6 “Explanation II” with Will Cullen Hart

This episode is a re-packaging of a season one episode that originally appeared behind the Discograffiti paywall on Patreon. 

One year ago, on November 23rd, hosts Rudy Fischmann and Mathew Bell were joined for the first time by new co-host Patrick Tape Fleming for what none of us knew would become one of the most meaningful conversations in the history of “Don’t Bother Wearing Seatbelts”. That day, Will Cullen Hart—pop visionary, experimental mastermind, and undisputed 4-track wizard—sat down with us to talk about “Explanation II”, the ambient companion piece originally released with the first CD pressing of “Dusk at Cubist Castle” back in 1996.

That was the plan, anyway.

In true Will fashion, he quickly steered us towards several directions. Mostly about his current obsession with Stereolab. 

No Seat Belts Needed for this ride. But what unfolded was a warm, hilarious, and beautifully wandering interview where we tried—mostly unsuccessfully—to get Will to talk about himself. Instead, we got something better: pure Will. Joyful. Curious. Generous. Brilliant.

Shortly after we recorded this session, Will passed away. This conversation now stands as a document of his charm, his creativity, and the enormous heart behind his music. He left us with decades of art (and yes, more still to come. soon), with his unmistakable warmth, and with one last instruction:

Go listen to Stereolab.

We hope you enjoy this special episode. Will is still here—in our stars, in our molecules, and in every sound he ever set free.

You can purchase a re-issued copy of “Explanation II”, on vinyl, here (but don’t wait- it’s almost sold out!):

Don’t Bother Wearing Seatbelts episode 2-5: Black Foliage by Olivia Tremor Control with John Kiran Fernandes”

This episode is a free re-broadcast of our very first episode which appeared behind a paywall as part of the Discograffiti music podcast's Patreon account. Special thanks goes out to Dave Gebroe for being cool with us re-releasing these episodes so we can share these really compelling discussions with the artists themselves.

So kicking things off was John Kiran Fernandes talking about the Olivia Tremor Control record that many overlook as being the best place to start with OTC. But, come on, it’s their best and most accessible record as well as the group’s most realized. It just is, lol.

Moving forward, we'll be (mostly) alternating new episodes with re-broadcasts until we get through all the older ones (around 14 total) so most of 2026.

All episodes will air initially on Bored Music Geek Radio before being released to most podcast ing apps a couple days later.

DBWS 2.4 “Proverbs” with The Shut-Ups

This is a band with an immense catalog and their latest release… “Proverbs”, a double-album, does not fail to confound just like all their previous efforts.

And despite their efforts to dissuade any serious evaluation of their work, we at “Don’t Bother Wearing Seatbelts” feel like we made some inroads into helping the world better understand the enigma that it is… The Shut-Ups.

You can purchase a copy of “Proverbs” here:

DBWS 2.3 Chris McKay’s “The Price Of A Wish

Some artists look death straight in the eyes and refuse to flinch. Henri Matisse, confined to a wheelchair after cancer surgery, reinvented his process entirely, cutting bold, life-affirming shapes from paper when his hands could no longer guide a brush. Georgia O’Keeffe, nearly blind from macular degeneration, refused surrender, dictating color and form to assistants, painting what she could still feel when she could no longer see. Their creativity became defiance, proof that art is not a luxury of health, but a necessity of spirit.

That same unbreakable drive runs through Athens, GA resident Chris McKay. Recovering from traumatic brain injury, Ehlers-Danlos complications, and emergency surgery that left him unable to stand or speak, McKay turned to AI not as a gimmick but as a lifeline. Through it, he painted sound pictures when his body could no longer cooperate, transforming limitation into liberation. Like Matisse with scissors or O’Keeffe with voice and vision fading, McKay found a new tool to stay alive through art. His work reminds us that creation is often the final rebellion against pain, the last way to prove we’re still here.

DBWS 2.1 Jardin Botanique’s “Isthmus”

Welcome to the second season of “Don’t Bother Wearing Seatbelts”, the podcast that explores the extensive world of the Elephant 6 Movement with the artists behind it yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

Speaking of, Don’t Bother Wearing Seatbelts also has a Patreon!!! Wait! Come back! It’s not like that! Our show is free, and will remain that way. However! Joining the Patreon, and pledging at the Reckless Driver level ($1 monthly) allows you to participate in our monthly giveaways. There will always be at least one giveaway per month, often there will be two or more per month, and each giveaway will include at least one piece of physical media (cd, cassette, or vinyl record.) There will be times that the winner can choose the format of the media that they receive, but as long as the album was pressed on vinyl there will always be that option available for the winner (we’re vinyl fanatics here at DBWS.) Sometimes it could be just the album in question, and other times there will be quite a few things included (t-shirts, stickers, artwork, etc..) We aren’t looking to turn a profit off of your donations, but they will definitely help us handle the shipping costs for the prizes, and various other production costs.
