Real Synthetic Audio For iTunes

All of the membership drive prizes are officially in the post and making their way to you. Apparently there was a delay at the Niagara Falls bridge taking stuff over to the USA. But USA packages should arrive in the next couple of days, and overseas will probably be another week or so. I basically spent all last weekend getting everything packaged up so there would be less of a delay than usual. After 20+ years of this I might finally be getting organized.

Encephalon - Survivors Bias

Die Sexual - Tremble For Me (Harlander Hack)

Autodafeh - Fastlane

Noemi Aurora - The Alchemist (Aiboforcen)

Sex Code - O.R.Gasm

Skren - Transporter

Fermion - Unity With Chaos (Frontal Boundary)

DSTRTD SGNL - Der Eisberg (Martin Bodewell)

I'm quite happy to tell everyone that nearly every prize for the membership drive is in the mail. I can also tell from my shipping dashboard that a few of you have received your gifts! I really hope you like the USB and the Spreadsheet! Its likely that next year the prizes for <$50 will be digital only. The cost of postage has skyrocketed here, and I have some thinking to do about 2026. But thats all old news. We're all about new music and "Today" rather than "Tomorrow!"

Phosgore - Slaves To The Bassline (Chainreactor)

Psyhound - Neurotransmitters (v2.0.25)

Nordstaat - Transhuman Forces

Alex Braun - Zeitfresser (Silica Gel)

Penetrate The Facade - Scars Of Your Soul

Absurd Minds - Serve Or Suffer (Subjection)

The Saint Paul - Milk'n Honey

Deviant UK - Access Denied!

The prizes have all be "created" and are now sitting next to a box of small mailers. This afternoon I'll be sending out the first batch and I figure that barring crazy circumstances everything will be in the mail and done in a week. Hopefully you'll be able to enjoy your little gift very soon! But this week we've got a great show for you, I've managed to avoid having too much stuff "hanging around" from 2024, so unlike most years I'm not struggling to put square pegs in round holes. We've got a great show for everyone, and once again thanks to all of my wonderful supporters!

Massiv In Mensch - Procrastination (Rana Orborea)

E_Lect - Empty Streets

The annual membership drive is over, and you'll no longer have to listen to me beg for money! It was a great success this year, and really made me feel good that so many people are willing to part with their hard earned money for my little show. Now of course I have to get my act together, fill dozens of USB keys to mail out, and a number of cards and thank-yous. But without any further ado, here's what your donations bring us! A brand new epsiode of RSA!

Noemi Aurora - The Alchemist (Aesthetische)

Asymetric80 - Innocent Stigmata

Welcome to the final week of the 2025 membership drive!

We'll be accepting donations until next weekend, and then the list will be set in stone! The USB sticks have been ordered, and some will come laser etched with the RSA logo! Your donations are appreciated beyond beleif, it keeps RSA going for another year. But part of that is me delivering new shows for everyone, and this week we've got some great stuff for everyone, including the return of a band that we haven't played since 2017!

Welcome to the third week of the 2025 membership drive! Thanks for all of your support!

http://www.synthetic.org/play.php

We're almost done and will return to even more mispronunciations and start mailing out prizes and thank you's! But never fear, you've still got just under 2 weeks to get in on the fun! This weekend in Toronto we're being treated to something like 36 hours of straight snow, fairly heavy for this part of Canada. So I've stocked up on snacks and I've got to get caught up on Severance. I'm getting everything done early for the weekend so I can enjoy the last few days of my stay-cation on the couch. Might even get the final Membership drive show started! But I'm getting ahead of myself...

Virulents - Basilisk

Cryptic Echoes - Fractured Reality

Dezeption - And You Never Hear What I Say

Darkvolt - White Lie (Andy De Baeke)

Welcome to the second week of the 2025 membership drive!

http://www.synthetic.org/membership.php

Yes, we've survived the first week of Todd begging for money, but how about another? Those of you who have been with me for a while will know the drill. A Patreon where I don't bother you every single week. Just the shortest month of the year. Over and done. But your support means the world to me, and I'm always really pleased to see the names of people who have given thier support for years as well as the new names the pop up every year. Welcome and thank you! But enough of that, lets get down to some really great music this week. We hit South America at least twice this week I think, and get some new acts some airplay as well as some returning favourites!

MissSuicide - Narziss (Blue Ant)

DSTRTD_SGNL - Body to Body (Bigod 20)

Black.N - Deforestacion (KRSSV)

Uncreated - Alliance

State Of Anguish - If Only

Happy707 - Inercia Expandida

Phaser One - History Repeats (Echodead)

NECR0 - Desolate

The 2025 membership drive is upon us!

http://www.synthetic.org/membership.php

Yes, we take the month of February to plug what would be called our Patreon. But since RSA has just turned 27, we're keeping it old school. I don't like having to plug anything other than the music so we get it all out in Feb. Help keep RSA going another year by considering visiting the Membership page. Everyone who donates will get something in the mail from me, even if its just a card saying thanks! But enough of that, lets get down to some great new music that is a little synthier-across-the-board than usual. But as I've mentioned in the past the mood I'm in when selecting the tracks does affect my choices. This week its upbeat and dancey!

Decence - Interstellar

Stars Crusaders - Eternal Dance

Cryptic Echoes - Ghosts In The Alley

Front Line Assembly - Mechvirus (Ultra Sunn)

Electron7 - The Rise

Cicero - Weekender (Extended)

E_Lect - You

Kite - Heartless Places

Getting things ready for the 2025 membership drive (which starts NEXT week) and listening to this weeks show. I did find the dumbest mispronunciation of a bands name that I've made in quite a while. I'd go and fix it, but perfection is not what people who listen to RSA are expecting. I'd be highly amused with an AI rendition of my voice. Could you imagine training it on all of my mistakes? It'd probably try to end every sentence with "Anyways...". Thanks for the help in the last couple of weeks, folks have pointed out bad links and other general mistakes. I'm sure I'll be thanking you even more next week! But lets get back to the present and after you've all watched the Live Front 242 show on YouTube, we've got a great show with some really nice dancey stuff!

MissSuicide - Narziss

Ankomst - Dancing In Warsaw (Colony 5)

AD-Key - Deine Augen (Extended)

Code 64 - The Running Man

Black.N - Just A Little

Simon Carter - Pain & Pleasure

Schwefelgelb - Open World Game (UFO95)

Tachion-X - The Opposer

Whoa. I got up bright and early this morning to post RSA, and was merrily away updating the site when I suddenly finished. Wait, I don't have to look up amazon links! This is almost liberating with how much less time its taking. This week we delve a little more into the whole amazon referrals, streaming, and a sudden revelation that a rule I made up and followed was really from the era of physical releases. But there's much less of me talking about myself and RSA this week. Guaranteed! In 2 weeks we'll be starting the membership drive, so next week we'll be reformatting the website a bit and starting a new list of supporters for 2025! But enough about that! Lets listen to some great EBM and techno beats!

Any Second - Out Of Control

Petros Spatharos - Datura

Destroy Me Again - DMA (Matt Hart)

Penetrate The Facade - Like Sand In Hand

NECR0 - Cold Cut
