Really not feeling great this weekend, distractingly so. But one of the things that usually makes me feel better is getting RSA out for everyone to enjoy. Right now, some poor person somewhere is listening to me butcher German. Look for me not doing well with Latin this week! But the bottom line is that not posting RSA when I have everything done bothers me. So we'll set everything aside, do a bit of coding, and get this into your ears!

A couple of nice sunny weekends has me convinced that spring is right around the corner! Got my bikes ready for the season, and actually got to spend time outside on Saturday without a jacket. Hopefully I'll get word about my move soon so I can plan my summer. But before I can go outside and play, I have to get everyone's fix for the week of great new music!

Looks like the new meds have sorted me right out, so I had a nice calm healthy week to work on RSA. Lots of great new acts for everyone this week, and with spring right around the corner the big festival season opens soon! While I'm looking forward to cycling again, I do look forward to gazing dreamily at festival lineups. Then I remember that I usually want to tap out after 2 days. Someone do something in Scotland. I haven't visited there yet.

Starting to feel more human again, so it's time to get back to the things that are fun and spread fun to others! This week the track selection veered into some really freat techno industrial as well as some neat minimal synth. Of course we have to end the show with a nice uptempo bit of dancy fun to get your week moving!

Another week where I'm battling some health issues, but nothing serious enough to keep me from getting all but a few international prize packages out the door! It always makes me happy to somehow return the favour and say thanks for your support. It probably dates back to being a kid and never getting any mail. Little did I know all those letters for my folks were bills. But you want to get to the new music, and I have an orange cat on my lap wondering why the keyboard is getting more attention than he is.

What a week! Things are starting to get busy again at work, and honestly I've had a bad stomach week. I didn't get as many prizes out the door as I would have liked, but I've sent out emails with the links to the digital download prizes. If you haven't received a note from me, please reach out. Sometimes people use special paypal only accounts, and I want to make sure you get whats coming to ya! But with all of this "business" type stuff out of the way, lets get right down to some great music with...

The 2024 membership drive is now over and I would like to thank each and every one of you for helping keep RSA going for another year. Still hard to beleive I've been doing this for 26 years. But the stories you folks tell me about listening to RSA for hours while travelling, or just listening passively while working, inspires me. I can do long term psychological damage to people all over the world with my taste in music!

OK, no corrections on language or pronunciation, but I did manage to get members of The Cure and The Smiths mixed up last week, so let that be a lesson. Todd's memory is shot. But in my defense, I drank for free for a lot of years working in clubs... Don't forget that we have a new Shirt Sale. We'll only be taking order for just over another week. Next weeks show will be your last call! https://realsyntheticaudio.bigcartel.com/product/rsa-2024-t-shirt Train To Spain - My Spirit Is Free (Club Edit) Soman - 89 (Single Peak) Stahlschlag - Biomechanik (Violet Wanda) Lights Of Euphoria - Euphoric Light (Tg Club) Llumen - Like My Pain (Aiboforcen) Nuquatron - Publicity Emex - Helix Aiboforcen - Cycle Of Life (Single Edit) http://synthetic.org/ https://synthetic.threadless.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@RealSyntheticAudio

After being corrected yet again, I can say that this week I pronounce Dark Chisme correctly! Hopefully my usual German schtick "translates" well into Spanish. But we've got a nice upbeat show for everyone this week as we hit some instrumental tracks and some upbeat EBM/Synthpop. Don't forget that we have a new Shirt Sale and these shirts will only be sold off this order, so get your hands on an exclusive! https://realsyntheticaudio.bigcartel.com/product/rsa-2024-t-shirt Stahlschlag - Routine (Sinister Intent) BEKIMACHINE - The Void (Chaotic Evil) Glis - Sunrise (Club) Mondtraume - Pictures Of You Alex Braun - Room Of Silence (The Saint Paul) Eisfabrik - Sad Lonesome Day Ego Bliss - Suicidal (Remix) Notausgang - The Empty Figure http://synthetic.org/ https://synthetic.threadless.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@RealSyntheticAudio
