Straight dub techno this episode. New and old, combined haphazardly.

Spring forward, fall back... still surprising me days later.

I managed to get an old rackmount spring reverb unit working. Plugged it into my DJ mixer's aux send / return; sounds great. The controls are too scratchy to use, though.
Dub techno tonight. But first it's tea time.

The band on my second pair of RP-HTX7 headphones broke a few days ago. The first pair had other problems, so tonight I got to swap parts between them to yield one working pair of headphones.
Frankenheadphones.
I'm sad that Panasonic discontinued the RP-HTX7s. They're great to work on.

And now I'm rocking out to the Project A-Ko soundtrack.
I guess I'm on a nostalgia trip tonight.

Phantasm is my favorite horror movie.
The pacing is perfect. And the editing. And the performances. And the story - the two brothers, their relationship.
It still scares me. I love almost everything about it.

Neat reimplementation and web version of SAM (Software Automatic Mouth), the Commodore 64 text-to-speech synth.
Dub techno, electro, future garage. Wandering through a few different styles in this show.

Ambient, downtempo, and weird stuff this week. Winding down from DJing at the arcade last night.
This episode’s recording did not stop when the show did, so unfortunately it
ended up being nine hours long. One hour of MTT, eight hours of robot DJ
Kumata. It's still available here, or linked as the spectrogram
above.

Megaphysics and I played our regular monthly show - Logical Aggression at Ground Kontrol - last night. Megaphysics opened the night playing electro, house, and techno from 9:00 PM until approximately 11:30 PM. Then I took over with a mixture of breaks, downtempo, electro, and pieces of MTT 100.
Here's my tracklist:

Megaphysics and I are playing music at Ground Kontrol arcade in #pdx tonight. Music starts at 9:00 PM, games are set to free play, $7 cover, 21 and over.
I'm doing my usual electro and a bit of drum & bass tonight. I think I'm taking the second timeslot, so I'll start around 11:30 PM.
Maybe it'll snow overnight again.

My last five toots have all been quotes from the 1955 film "Kiss Me Deadly".
It's a great movie. Also an important piece of film noir history. Also incredibly sexist.
Clute & Edwards recorded an excellent podcast on this film, available here: http://outofthepast.libsyn.com/episode_32_kiss_me_deadly

What's in the box? What's in the box?
Curiosity killed the cat and it certainly would have you if you had followed your impulse to open it. You did very well to call me when you did.
Yes, I know. But what's in it?
You have been misnamed, Gabriel. You should have been called Pandora.

Well, you are awake. Lie still. Why torment yourself? Who would you see? Someone you do not know. A stranger. What is it we are seeking? Diamonds? Rubies? Gold? Perhaps narcotics? How civilized this earth used to be. But as the world becomes more primitive, its treasures become more fabulous.

You want to avenge the death of your dear friend. How touching. How Sweet! How nicely it justifies your quest for the great whatsit.
Why don't you leave, Mike. Before I change my mind.
