This weekend I get to play SysAdmin as my homelab (which stores all of my RSA material) had a disk failure in one of my servers. It's all parity protected, but I'm spending a good 20 hours moving data off another disk that I'm kinda suspicious of. If anyone wants to donate a stack of 16TB SATA drives to me, I wouldn't say no at this point. But because I have lost data in the distant past, I've already learned my lesson. But this doesn't directly affect RSA at all, as we've got a great show for everyone. A higher tempo than usual, but the first track I selected was 150 bpm(!), that sets the tone for the rest of the show!

Zanias - Human

Prometheus Flame - March On Blaze

Vexillary - Kill Shot

Seelennacht - Grey Apartment Show

Faderhead - Cold Chrome

Exsequor - Asymmetric War

Things are more or less back to normal around here, as we prepare for the onset of Winter in Canada. This week I do put some emphasis on what the heck we're going to do about next years membership drive. I'm really looking for your feedback on what you'd like to receive in return for donations. I'm looking at Enamel pins (much like the Sanctuary pins that are on my "battle jacket"). Sadly the patches we did prior to the pandemic are insanely expensive now. If you have one, it's a collectiors item! THis wek we also expanded to 9 songs instead of the usual 8. In the new world of more singles than full length albums, we'll have to adapt and try to keep the quantity as high as the quality. :)

XPQ-21 - Dance With The Devil

Elektrostaub - Too Far From The Pack (Salva Maine)

Aesthetic Perfection - We Bring The Beat

Absurd Minds - Fractured (Autodafeh)

Data Kino - Rock It Again

Komission Z80 - Choose (Ruined Conflict)

Destroy Me Again - The Shards

Extize - Cyberghost

Audiocall - Retailers! (Single)

I apologize for missing last week, but apparently if you're unable to eat solid food for several days the pounds just melt away! I have some work to do on my health, but the work will be done. One thing that I forgot to mention in this weeks show is that this week we have Remembrance Day in the Commonwealth and Veterans day in the USA. Having stood on Tower bridge in London, and the docks in Hamburg I'm just glad that the idea of bombing either city now is such an inconceivable thing. Hamburg was also a significant visit for me because my Grandfather was a part of Operation Gomorrah.

The first track is also dedicated to the people at ICE.

Project Pitchfork - Memento Mori

Dead Lights - Killing Time

DSTRTD_SGNL - The Fool

My favourite time of the year. When the leaves are changing, the temperature drops a bit so we need a light jacket. Might be time to pull out my 90s battle jacket. Maybe on Saturday Nov 1 when I DJ at Ground Control. Maybe. This week we only make a passing mention of AI. I swear. But we did get a response from Bandcamp, so the gears are moving. Remember folks, Bandcamp > Spotify.

So all of the Yanks are out protesting today (NO MORE KINGS), Europe is pre-drinking, and the west coast is just getting through brunch. Sounds like a perfect time to drop this weeks RSA! We delve ever so slighly into the ethics of using AI and what its place might be in music production. This also includes a snippet of an AI song that one of our long term listeners has been noodling with. Its quite eye opening. But the most important part of all is getting some great new music out to everyone!

Getting the show up early for everyone as this is the Canadian thanksgiving day weekend. So I'll be extra busy as this is usually the last time I see my folks until they venture back to (gulp) Florida. This year I'm making the turkey. We do talk a little about AI music again this week, and I'm going to talk again a bit more next week. The music is the priority, but if I can slip a couple of minutes of commentary in, I will.

No sermons this week, just great music. Had a bit of a rollercoaster week, so I'm actually surprised that I'm getting things done on time. Lots of great new stuff for everyone, and now I have to run out the door to get the boring part of the weekend (chores) done while I listen to...

So last weeks show had an easter egg, unknown even to me. Apparently (and thank you to those who emailed me) one of the bands from last week don't actually exist. So along with the great music you get to hear me philosophise on AI and music. There may be more little chats like this over the next few weeks. But brief. Because we're here for the music, not the sermons!

Apologies for this weeks show being a little late. I spent the entire weekend on the road taking care of some family stuff. When I got home on Sunday afternoon I finished the mixing, but was just too wiped to piece it all together and record my usual verbal fumbling. But never fear, got some work done and then shifted focus over here. I can't leave my public waiting!

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!
