Atomic Nation / Atomic Nation (Parallaxed)
Also released as "Invasion" on the Parallax Corporation album Cocadisco.
Third-to-last track in the hour of music I just played. Had to hear it again.

Just finished reading "Aurora" by Kim Stanley Robinson.
Liked this one much more than New York 2140. Aurora has the same problems as 2140, I think, but the plot kept me going. And Aurora is shorter - it feels shorter, at least.

From all the tracks in the Assembly '98 list, this (in my opinion) is the jam:
Ceniq^Milk / XEQ-Complex

~140 module files downloaded then renamed (thank you ZEPOINFO.TXT).
46 picked out and rendered to .flac with OpenMPT. Then tagged, replaygain-ed, etc.
Done with Assembly 1998.

Currently going through the Assembly 1998 music competition entries.

There are over a hundred songs here. This is going to take forever.
This week's show is a selection of electro, techno and a couple old new wave / synthpop tracks. Lots of kick drums on one and three.
This show (like most of MTT Year 2) is no longer available for download here. Get in touch with me at the email address listed at the top of this page if you want a copy of it.

I picked up two books today: "Kink" by Kathe Koja and "Traveler #5: Road War" by D.B. Drumm (AKA John Shirley).
Looking forward to both of them. "Road War" is going to be really fun and trashy. I'm not sure about "Kink" - but if it's anything like "Skin", then I'll love it.

This year's Assembly Summer tracked music top 10 is amazing.

I missed the start of it, but the Dreamhack Winter #quakechampions duel tourney is going on right now.
They're in the second semifinal, Av3k vs. Cooller. The previous game was Killsen vs. Rapha and was amazing.

There's a new power_of_heavy_metal (aka MrHollyDriv3r) #quake3 defrag video.

Woke up yesterday at 1 AM, went to sleep today at 7 AM. Then woke up at 11. Ugh.
Last night DJ Megaphysics and I had our regular show at Ground Kontrol. I took the first slot, DJing from about 9 to 11:30 PM. My notes got a little jumbled towards the end, but here's what I played as best I can make out:

Megaphysics and I are DJing at Ground Kontrol arcade in Portland tonight from 9 PM until close. The games are set to free play today, so there's a $5 cover.
I'm dead tired so things will be a little loose. I think it's time to play some of the Cosmic Bridge catalog and a bit of Drum & Bass.
Slightly more mellow this week. Electro, IDM, techno, etc.

Saw on reddit yesterday that some XNA games now run natively under FreeBSD and OpenBSD thru Mono.
I tried it out yesterday with Stardew Valley using these instructions:
and it works! Runs perfectly, as far as I can tell. Definitely better than it was running in Wine.
