We're digging into the back catalogue this week because I've got some personal issues going on, and I needed a show to make *me* feel good. Good music is cathartic, and while there is no message or meaning behind any of the tracks, they're all ones that make me smile.

Solitary Experiments - Odyssey Of Mind (Negative Format)
BATTL - Mis-Step (A23)
Iris - Unknown (Sub-Rosa)

A much earlier posted show than usual, as I found out yesterday afternoon that I'd be flying out to NYC on Sunday afternoon for work. Luckily I had the show just about completed, so I was able to post it a little earlier than usual rather than postpone it until next week. Tonnes of great new stuff including new material prom multiple RSA best-of band The Crystalline Effect!

Decence - Heart Of Stone
The Crystalline Effect - Five Ways To Run
Nachtmahr - Unsterblich
PreEmptive Strike 0.1 - Ichthyic Ascension

We're back in top form with a great new show! This week we touch a little more than usual on the aggressive side of EBM, sometimes referred to as "Terror EBM", a classification that just sounds silly to me. But there's also some nice synth pop in there for you to help keep everything nice and balanced!

Low Technicians - Miles Away
Black Heaven - Kill The Pain
Decence - Tales Of Life

OK, I admit that this week things start a little weak. But then thats the problem with doing a radio show as opposed to a club night. I'm grabbing tracks from new releases and not planning out a set beforehand. Sometimes you've just gotta make lemonade from those lemons. I'm smart. I added a bit of vodka to my lemonade in true RSA fashion. :)

It's been a long, trying week for me, but I find that my own Catharsis (a theme touched on a lot in the music here) is working on RSA and getting a show for you. Something that at least slightly exercises the creative part of my brain. At least it's creative when I have to write about the show like this...

I'm happy to say that there are going to be big changes around here, but not necessarily ones that you guys will notice. I've gotten a new job that gets me off shift work and back into regular human hours, there will be far fewer instances of the show being late because work got in the way. As a way to celebrate, here's a brand new show *on time* and featuring a couple of tracks from the Machines against hunger compilation!

So last week I took a week off for summer vacation and as soon as I announced it Chris, our ever faithful "program director" emailed me and said that he would have done a fill in show!

OK, I deliberately waited until this morning to get the show out because I managed to pick up a wicked summer cold over the past few days and it went to nest in my throat. It's kinda hard to do the show when you sound like a frog thats been gargling drano and feel just about the same. Man, what a lovely visual. At any rate, we've got a great show for you this week as we eagerly anticipate the fall release schedule! Gotta get those CDs into the stores before Christmas!

This is where I hang my head in shame. I'm in full summer mode, as after spending the day along the water front here in Toronto, and having a nice Korean lunch, what do I do? Do I post RSA? Nope I spend the afternoon playing Guitar Hero 3 and watching Venture Bros. While I usually wind up taking 2 weeks off a year, the time isn't right yet, so better a late show than none at all!

Interestingly my girlfriend (gently) gets on my case when I haven't gotten the show done on time. This weekend she's away in NYC and yet I still think "Better get this done before I get beaten!"
