RSA September 15th 2025

Spent most of the day cleaning and listening to this weeks show to make sure that I didn't make any mixes that caused me to make a sour face. There's some notes in this weeks show about next years membership drive. Plus my very efficient and professional method of "proof listeneing" to RSA. It works for me!

RSA September 8th 2025

No holiday to help pass the time this week, so I've been working on my next live set, mostly just writing stuff down at this point. Plus preparing for "work surface" thats lower than expected. That and Imay have to splurge for new headphones. The "Serviceable but not expensive" pair I use for live stuff is starting to flake apart. People have justifiably joked that my "last performance" has happened several times. Well call my Terry Funk then. This week we've got some great stuff from synthpop to aggro! Kontrast - Die Zunkuft (Club) Chrom - Agony Device Noize - Gente Comun Devoid - Slanted Halo Electronic Frequency - Get Naughty Super Dragon Punch!! - Gloom (Ruined Conflict) Rotersand - Father Ocean Zanias - Serpentsmile http://synthetic.org/ https://www.youtube.com/@RealSyntheticAudio

RSA September 1st 2025

Its labour day weekend, so I'm getting everything done a little bit early so I can enjoy the long weekend. I'm actually heading to the local cemetery to take some pictures and feed the fattest squirrels in the city. I'm also taking the time to gather songs for my first live set in a couple of years. I've said it before, but this may be the last time you get to see me live. I take it all year by year.

RSA August 25th 2025

Had a really nice 4 day weekend, went to the CNE, did some cycling, and listening to music for both this show and a soon to be announced Sanctuary gig in November. Keep your ears open. I'm going to be doing longer sets. But this week we've got some great music for you on RSA, possibly even a track or two I might play live. You never know, the next couple of months are going to be interesting!

RSA August 18th 2025

Its going to be another crazy hot weekend inn Toronto, so I'm hunkering down and working on projects indoors at least today. Hopefully everyone has a great weekend at Infest, I'm probably going to finish re-cabling my server closet and spend some time on the balcony just listening to new music!

RSA - August 11th 2025

I got a lot of great feedback about last weeks extra long theme show! I'm really glad you folks liked it, I haven't gotten that many emails about a show in years. We'll have to have another one. Probably closer to the 2026 membership drive! But we're back to our normal format of new music, and we've got a great show for everyone this week!

RSA August 4th 2025 - 2000s Theme show!

A few weeks ago I promised a theme show, I like to do extra long shows when I come back from one of my two "breaks" every year. It would appear that I've used up all of my RSA vacation time, so its smooth sailing from here to the end of the year. This week we're going 2 hours into the period of time from the late 90s to the early 2000s. I've tried to pick bands that were of that era, and are now defunct, but you'll probably notice a few bands that are going strong all these years later. I hope you enjoy this stroll down memory lane! Boole - Sasquatch (2008) Tristesse de la Lune - Time Is Moving (Negative Format) (2005) Culture Kultur - Lost Ideals (2001) In Strict Confidence - Zauberschloss (Extended) (2001) Six Sigma - Cinco July-o (1997) Fiction 8 - Let Go (2000) Full frequency - Drop Down (1996) Stromkern - Re-align (Seabound) (2002) Velvet Acid Christ - Decypher (Force = Authority) (1999) Individual Totem - Paradoxon (1998) Moulin Noir - Spellbound (Run Level Zero) (2001) Revolution By Night - Faithless (VNV) (2003) Wideband Network - Orbit (Club) (2003) Aiboforcen - Twilight World (A23) (2001) Syntec - Talk To The Other World (Club) (1995) S.V.D. - Big Bad City (Singapore) (2003) Mechanical Horizon - New Horizons (2001) Contruggle Test - Shop (2000) Access Zero - Years Of Wasted Time (2010) State Of The Union - Black City Lights (2002) Sero Overdose - For You (2005) Gridlock - Enzyme (Dryft) (1998) http://synthetic.org/ https://www.youtube.com/@RealSyntheticAudio
