Ok, another week where I've been consumed by T-Shirt drama. I've learned a lot from this experience, and the next time will be a lot smoother. But suffice it to say, we're back on track with a new printing company, and I expect to have the finished product in my hands before the next show is posted. Until then, we have a great show with a number of new and rising bands, including my favorite Hungarian act!

Another week, and not much to report on the T-Shirt front. I still hope to have them in my hands by the end of the week, but its looking like it might be delayed a day or two beyond that. I address this in the show, but its a matter of "Cheap, Fast, Quality. Pick 2." But until then, we still have a great show for you all!Dream Recall - In Control (Mind.Divided)Eisfabrik - Walking Towards The SunSolar Fake - Under ControlAvarice In Audio - Last JudgementStudio-X vs. Simon Carter - BlameDiversant 13 - Start The RideAdvance - Weapon Of Choice (Binary Division)BhamBhamHara - So 'ne Schone Welthttp://synthetic.org/https://twitter.com/djtoddrsa

I know I've mentioned this before, but with the end of the cycling season, I've been able to dedicate more time to RSA. Soon will come cold and flu season to rob me of this extra time, but until then enjoy a season of shows on time! I'll begin working on the best of for 2015 shortly. Please make sure to make your choices known on the Facebook page!

The order for the T-shirts has been placed, and I expect to have some further progress on that front to update you with in the next couple of days. Now that the cycling season is more or less over in Canada, I really don't have any excuse not to work on RSA all weekend. And yet, there I was on Sunday afternoon feverishly working away. I really should procrastinate less!Aesthetic Perfection - TomorrowTerrolokaust - The Way It Must Be (Modulate)Eisfabrik - Maschinen (Rob Dust)Zombie Girl - Dead Inside (Aesthetische)Studio-X vs. Simon Carter - Lonely (Aesthetische)Psy'Aviah - Never Look Back (Simon Carter)Hocico - Forgotten Tears (Recovered)Unitary - Unafraid (Dekad)http://synthetic.org/https://twitter.com/djtoddrsa

The T-Shirt pre-sales are now over and was a resounding success. I've had to order more than I had originally been quoted on, so you've exceeded my expectations! Hopefully we'll have the finished product in a couple of weeks and I'll be able to share some pictures as I start mailing them all out!Schwarzbund - Herbstonne (Gruft)Dear Strange - DystopiaTerrolokaust - Reversing In Circles (Rotersand)Gunmaker - No Chance (Dolls Of Pain)Advance - Fractured ExistenceAesthetic Perfection - ForeverVaylon - Stillborn (People Theatre)Unitary - Unafraidhttp://synthetic.org/https://twitter.com/djtoddrsa

So this week I am really grateful that I took the time to select the tracks early in the week, as I've been laid up with really bad tooth pain for most of the week. After waiting for my regular dentist to return from an emergency, I broke down and went to the emergency clinic, and wound up getting a tooth pulled. So this makes me more British right? I have Throbbing Gristle/Keef Baker street cred now, right? This gives me another opportunity to plug the fact that we have a new T-Shirt for (pre)sale, the first since 2007! Note: The pre-sale ends this Friday Oct. 23! We're also still collecting suggestions for the Best of 2015 show, which is coming up in just a couple of short months!http://synthetic.org/tshirt.phpPlazmabeat - Konny Es SzilankDesastroes - PiratentanzSchwarzblut - Zur Holle (ZC64 Mix)Nordika - Fly (Henrik Iverson)Foretaste - Beautiful Creatures (Dekad)Solar Fake - All The Things You SayCyferdyne - Glass (Ginger Snap5)Aesthetic Perfection - Never Enoughhttp://synthetic.org/https://twitter.com/djtoddrsa

This weekend is the true and proper "Canadian" thanksgiving weekend, so as a gift to everyone here I am posting the show a little early! This also gives me another opportunity to plug the fact that we have a new T-Shirt for (pre)sale, the first since 2007! We're also still collecting suggestions for the Best of 2015 show, which is coming up in just a couple of short months!http://synthetic.org/tshirt.phpBenjamin's Plague - Black EyesTorul - Difficult To Kill (Torulsson)Gunmaker - Love Me (Rob Dust)Desastroes - GroßstadtlichterEvo-Lution - Lies (Rob Dust)Nordika - Illumination (Felix Marc)Avarice In Audio - World Without Song (Axiom)Redline - Windhavenhttp://synthetic.org/https://twitter.com/djtoddrsa

I have some great news for everyone! If you haven't already heard, we have finalized a design for the new RSA T-Shirts, and you can find posts about this on either Facebook or Twitter. I'm currently collecting quotes from printers, and I expect pre-sales to begin in the next week! We also have a great new show for you, and a little early too!Cygnosic - The DarknessBinary Division - Riot Rebellion (Studio-X)Suicide Commando - The Pain That You LikeDear Strange - Lonely HeroesRedline - Lost IllusionRave The Requiem - Thistleblower (Grendel)Unitary - Unafraid (Assemblage 23)Advance - The Road (Atomzero)http://synthetic.org/https://twitter.com/djtoddrsa

Wound up spending the weekend indoors watching over a cat recovering from medical attention. But while I spent a glorious cycling weekend indoors I did manage to get a couple of episodes of RSA done. The next few weeks may eve contain some best of show material. With Christmas coming, new releases coming out left and right!Dekad - SlowmotionAvarice In Audio - World Without Song (Benjamins Plague)Technolorgy - Damsel In Distress (Ginger Snap5)Foretaste - For Your Own Good (Commuter)Aesthetic Perfection - Never Enough (VAC)Schwarzblut - Judas (Binary Division)Hocico - Forgotten Tears (Blutengel)Aiboforcen - Tears (Set Me Free)http://synthetic.org/https://twitter.com/djtoddrsa

The opposite of last weekend. We had wonderful fall weather and I spent the weekend cycling, and now I'm spending my Monday evening getting RSA finished and out to you! Soon those wonderful weekends will give way to snow and cold, and then I'm all yours for another holiday season!C-Lekktor - RadioakktivityEnter And Fall - New Life (Sixty64Four)Reaper - Der Schnitter (Mit Der Sense)Cyferdyne - End Of AgesTechnolorgy - Crestfallen (Rotersand)Cygnosic - This Is The Night (Grendel)Alkemic Generator - Back To Origin (C-Lekktor)!Distain - No One Is To Leadhttp://synthetic.org/https://twitter.com/djtoddrsa

A wet dreary weekend (dare I say, a pleasant English weekend?) here in Canada leaves me plenty of time to work on this weeks radio show. This week I tended to clear out a few discs that have been sitting in my inbox for a while. Christmas is coming, and there will be a lot of new discs to sort through. Heavy on the synthpop this week, and the opposite next week!Metroland - Triadic Ballet (Passengers In Turmoil)Arctic Sunrise - Nothing MoreNeuvision - Body & Symphony (Ygrod Droid)Caisaron - Einsam!Distain - Gunfires (Tom XOR)Monolithic - Like A Fire (Lars Hausmann)Machinista - Picture Frame EternityBlutkraft - Leave The Dancefloor (Anouk Miller)http://synthetic.org/https://twitter.com/djtoddrsa

This weeks show is a day late, due partly to it being a long weekend with Labour day here in Canada (and the same holiday, poorly spelled, in the USA) and partly because I don't have air conditioning in my "studio" room. It was just too damn hot to be working on a computer. But fear not, here it is!Beborn Beton - I Beleive (Babymax)Redline - Under The OceanStudio-X vs. Simon Carter - Can You SeeSuicide Commando - Crack Up (FragileChild)Arctic Sunrise - Beautiful SundayVan Undercut - Reise Heimatlos (Seelenacht)Loewenhertz - Gemeinsame Zeiten (Sweet Arp)Terrolokaust - Addicted (ESA)http://synthetic.org/https://twitter.com/djtoddrsa

So I decided to wait until the very last possible moment to finish RSA this week, as my congestion made my voice sound even more odd than usual. Naturally, the day AFTER I get the show done I show significant signs of improvement. But the show must go on, and what a great one we have for you this time around!

I managed to catch myself a nice summer cold over the past week, so the past couple of evenings where I should have been spending finishing RSA, were instead spent lying in bed surrounded by empty bottles of cold and flu medication. But I've gotten my act together enough so that I can get this out to you!Binary Division - Riot Rebellion (Simon Carter)Reaper - Der Schnitter (Henrik Iverson)Entrzelle - Compatible With My Intoxication (Sober)Parralox - AtmosphereMonolithic - NightwritingDark Empire - Against The Storm Inside (Intent Outtake)Enter And Fall - Lose Control (Rob Dust)Ashbury Heights - Starlighthttp://synthetic.org/https://twitter.com/djtoddrsa

Yup, still getting the show done ahead of time. Maybe I should make this a regular thing. No stress at the last minute trying to get one last mix down pat. It also lets me head out for a Saturday of cycling totally guilt free. I think this is one of the better shows I've done this year, I hope you enjoy it as much as I have been over the last week or so!Future Perfect - Neo Rom Com (Destination)Parralox - Wrong Or RightAshbury Heights - Gravitational ManMonolithic - Arms (Alpha-Omega)Reaper - Der Schnitter (Skyla Vertex)Lyronian - Crisis (Club Edit)Erotic Elk - Wicked GameSteril - Karnivorehttp://synthetic.org/https://twitter.com/djtoddrsa
