There's a chill in the air, baseball playoffs on TV, and candy on sale. You know what means? That's means it's almost Halloween. Come on along for some cool new music, and a chat with Rex & Christina of Big Stir Records about the label's new seasonal release: Chilling, Thrilling Hooks And Haunted Harmonies: The Big Stir Records Halloween Grimoire. Contrary to all that, this is not the Mod Mod World's annual modcast. Fear not, is still to come with modcaster extraordinaire DJ Ken handing out the candy as always. Check all the past halloween modcasts here.

And for the first time ever, a video modcast interview! In 19 seasons, with almost 600 modcasts under my belt, and this is the very first time I've recorded a video. First time for everything eh. Check it out on the modcast homepage.

This week on the Modcast I shakedown the breakdown with Vancouver's own power pop sensations Star Collector. Vic and Steve join me to dish the dirt on the making of the band's latest album, Everything Must Go!

They're not holding anything back, the band puts it all out there for their seventh full length release. Overall the album has a strong, modern rock vibe with hints of the influences you'd expect surfacing all throughout from The Who to Big Star to Teenage Fanclub. And while those echoes are there, the album stands on its own songwriting with hooks aplenty and lyrics from clever to emotional. The title track is loud, glitzy and anthemic and will have audiences bouncing along, driven by Who like guitars and pounding drums. Then there's the notstalgic Victory Dance with it's mod scene theme that all aging mods can relate to. Other standout tracks include Shakedown the Breakdown, Station 8, and Victory Dance. Hell I could list all 13 tracks as stand outs. So, come along for the show, you'll be glad you did.

As always a bonus third set of songs - all Star Collector videos this time around, and all the important links to all the important stuff over on the modcast homepage at http://www.mistersuave.com/2025/08/modcast-585-shakin-it-down-with-star.html.

Welcome to Mr. Suave's Mod Mod World, it's time to get some summertime booze. At last, at long last, summer has come to seattle. This has been one of the coldest springs on record in the northwest, but the times they are a changin'. The thermometer has actually eeked up over 80 degrees fahrenheit. Not exactly Vegas temps sure, but I'll take it.

This week you're going to get a full dose of sunny, hot, summer songs.
But don't blame me, it's not my fault. Give credit where credit is due right, so I have to give credit and a shout out to one of the best blogs on the net Music Ruined My Life. If you dig power pop, punk, pop-punk, mod, new wave and so on then Music Ruined My Life should be one of the blogs you follow. Jeffen the man behind the blog recently did a great post featuring summer songs -- which got me to thinking. I started putting together a list in my mind and voila here's the modcast to prove it. 

Lots of musical goodness headed your way with some rocking power pop, some punk rock, some indy rock, some garage rock -- all of it with the mod friendly sound we all love so much.

No one is united, And all things are untied, poetic lines that emotionally personalize the political, are the opening lines of X's The World's a Mess, It's in My Kiss and now this Modcast #583: The Decline of Western Civilization Contd. As poignant now as they were in 1980 when written by Exene Cervenka and John Doe of X. Now, they again resonate with what is happening in the world. Happy birthday America, such as it is.

Carve out a bit of time and listen to the whole podcast start to finish. I'm trying something a little bit different and would love to hear what you think. Leave a comment on the modcast homepage at mistersuave.com.

Welcome to episode #22 featuring an exceptional track list. I've got a new feature I'm trying out, tracing the roots of current mod bands and bands obviously heavily influenced by mod music. So for this episode I've got The Who, The Jam & Green Day. [Originally aired August 2007 on Mistersuave.com]

To set the scene here's a passage from Mr. Suave's First Epistle to the Mods.
Chapter 1
Verse 1: In the beginning was The Who and the mods knew it was good. It was loud and brash and full of danceable rhythm.
Verse 2: The Who begat the Jam and the punks and mods knew it was good. It was fast and it was soulful.
Verse 3: The Jam begat Green Day. And the punks and the mods and the masses finally all opened their ears and knew it was good. It was loud, and brash, and fast. And ultimately they showered it with silver and gold.

It's time to get exotic. DJ Ken joins me to dig into some modern, 21st century, exotica and lounge music. Perfect mix to vibe out and escape the chaos of the mundane, uncool world we're all stuck with these days.
