The RSA shirts have arrived, and I'll begin mailing them out shortly! I'm obviously going to need to buy a gross of mailers and other supplies. Luckily I have next week off as a vacation so I can say with 100% certainty that by (lets say) Tuesday they'll all be in the mail. Shipping from the US to Canada took a bit longer than anticipated, so thanks for your patience!

iTunes Podcast!

Just a quick note on podcasting/iTunes. At long last I've managed to get Apple to un-block RSA from the iTunes podcast directory. Sorta. I basically had to create a new feed just for them. If you already have subscribed to the RSS/Podcast feed manually there is no need to do anything more. However, if you haven't and use iTunes, then just follow the link!

I've been playing with the idea of this theme show for a couple of months now, nothing but tracks from the (in)famous and heavily influential industrial label Wax Trax! This week Chris passed me an A Split Second single that I didn't have, and to get it to fit in I just *had* to execute the idea in my head. So hear it is, the very first electronic music I ever listened to!

RSA Listeners Month!

2008-05-10T13:27:00.000-04:00

OK, I once again completely forgot about listeners month. I blame all of the T shirt stuff, though I do notice that over the years it has slowly migrated from April to May and now to June.

Listeners month is a way to encourage some interaction around here. I want to hear what *you* want to hear. Rather than the odd request, this is your chance to program RSA! All you need to do is write up a list of 10 tracks and I'll make a show out of them! If I choose your play list I generally try to get a photo of you to slap on the site as well.

Submissions can be made via email, or:

The RSA Facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2363641146

I can't wait to hear your choices!

After nearly a year of going over design after design, we have a finalized design and the order is ready to be placed. To help me get an idea for demand, we've begun pre-orders.

All ordering can be done on the shirts page. The actual order will be placed within 2 weeks. If you need a shirt size 2XL or larger, pre-ordering is the only way to get one!

It's not exactly a secret that I'm not a big fan of noise/power electronics. However even I have to admit that just about every genre of music has something to add. So instead of botching the selection of "good" power tracks last year we turned to Matt Fanale of Caustic to take over and do a guest show. It worked out well, so a year later we have him back doing his thing once again!
