RSA May 4th 2026

My vacation is basically over so the sun has come out to taunt me today and when I go back to work on Monday. But with a cool, rainy week I had plenty of time to work on RSA, so no lateness thius week. Heck I was feeling like it was 2015 again or something and I started work on next weeks show as well! But I've learned not to get too far ahead of myself. This week we're actually playing some synthwave at the end of the show. Someone dangles a disc named "Puroresu" in front of me, and I'm gonna listen.

A pleasant sunny Sunday has me inside finishing RSA just as lickety damn split as I can before the sun runs away again. I have the next week off and I'm planning everything around our brief glimpses of the sun. This week we've got a great show without any German words to trip over. Instead, I'll take this opportunity to mangle English, as I do on days ending with the letter "Y". If anyone wants another pin or 3, just let me know.

We have a world premiere for everyone this week! Back in 1990 my tastes in music slowly shifted from Thrash Metal and Punk to a more electronic sound. There were two Toronto bands that helped me bridge the genres. Malhavoc and DHI. Both combined aggressive guitars with sequencing and samples. Both were obviously very influential on me. Well, 36 years later I get to debut a new DHI EP on RSA. I hope there are more to come!

Finally got my passport application dealt with. Let me tell you folks, losing your passport and birth certificate causes months of dealing with Provincial and Federal bureaucracy. But it looks like I'll be able to have a short summer vacation this year. One last package to get in the mail this week! If anyone is interested in buying the RSA pins, I have a few left over. Drop me an email.

RSA April 6th 2026

Its a cool, windy and rainy day in Toronto, as we slowly emerge from winter into (whats usually) 3 weeks of spring. Hopefully this year we'll get some nice weather before the AC season starts. The pins I sent out to my industry friends arrived, and I was delighted that people posted photos. Coming in the next couple of weeks will be a new worldwide premiere here on RSA. Keep your eyes peeled and your ears open!
