The RSA shirts have arrived, and I'll begin mailing them out shortly! I'm obviously going to need to buy a gross of mailers and other supplies. Luckily I have next week off as a vacation so I can say with 100% certainty that by (lets say) Tuesday they'll all be in the mail. Shipping from the US to Canada took a bit longer than anticipated, so thanks for your patience!
OK, one last regular show before we hit listeners month! We haven't received all that many play lists from you guys, so get off your butts and make your own RSA! Just send me a list of 10 tracks and I'll make a show out of 'em! This week we've got a bunch of great new stuff including requests/recommendations from the RSA Forum!

As we come up on the annual listeners month, I get to sneak in a few more of my favorite tracks along with some great new material! I managed to get the tracks that inspired last weeks show in, and went through whats been sent to me recently to round it all off with some great new stuff. There's something for everyone!

Just a quick note on podcasting/iTunes. At long last I've managed to get Apple to un-block RSA from the iTunes podcast directory. Sorta. I basically had to create a new feed just for them. If you already have subscribed to the RSS/Podcast feed manually there is no need to do anything more. However, if you haven't and use iTunes, then just follow the link!

I've been playing with the idea of this theme show for a couple of months now, nothing but tracks from the (in)famous and heavily influential industrial label Wax Trax! This week Chris passed me an A Split Second single that I didn't have, and to get it to fit in I just *had* to execute the idea in my head. So hear it is, the very first electronic music I ever listened to!

OK, I once again completely forgot about listeners month. I blame all of the T shirt stuff, though I do notice that over the years it has slowly migrated from April to May and now to June.
Listeners month is a way to encourage some interaction around here. I want to hear what *you* want to hear. Rather than the odd request, this is your chance to program RSA! All you need to do is write up a list of 10 tracks and I'll make a show out of them! If I choose your play list I generally try to get a photo of you to slap on the site as well.
Submissions can be made via email, or:

I can't wait to hear your choices!
Another week means another day spent slaving over a hot hard drive to bring you a lot of really great new music. This week we hit not only the new releases but a couple of bands that were recommended via the RSA forums. I also (once again) completely forgot about the listeners month, so it's gonna be June this year! Stay tuned for more details!
