TERMINAL TRANSMISSION #45: CATCH THE WAVE 2099

CATCH THE WAVE 2099

"Catch The Wave?!"


Today's TERMINAL TRANSMISSION was hijacked! Somehow my feed was taken over by a rogue broadcaster from the future, and he mocked me by playing a bunch of cool songs I would've played had I not gotten my airtime STOLEN from me! This DJ DeLorean is obviously a menace. Just listen to the way he cryptically talks about the perils of the future, his weird tone of voice, his hollow laugh... something is seriously wrong with that half-man, half-machine DJ!

In all seriousness though, I love doing themed shows, and I loved getting (or rather, giving myself) the chance to play a character again. I feel like I could've worked harder on giving DJ DeLorean a more unique voice, instead just a subdued version of my standard DJ voice with some cool computer sounds beeping and booping away in the background, but that has more to do with me broadening my range as a voice actor in general. I might bring DJ DeLorean back some day...

My--Or should I say, DJ Delorean's--"Bandcamp Pick Of The Week" was the song "Data Bombing" by Columbian electronic musician Filmmaker. I stumbled upon one of his most recent releases, "THE VLAD TAPES," and have been become obsessed with his work. He's insanely prolific, and I'm excited to dive into his myriad albums and EPs. His music definitely occupies a darker space, and The Vlad Tapes in particular sounds like the 8-bit soundtrack to an unreleased satanic video game. I would've featured a track from that album, but there's only four and they're all almost thirty minutes long, so that was pretty much a no-go for my hour long show.

If you missed today's live show, you can stream the recording here via the Kpiss website. You can also catch up on past shows here. See you all next week! Catch The wave! HACK THE PLANET! Be the techno-warrior deity you wish to see in the world!

TRACK REVIEW: PET WIFE - BAD WAY

 TRACK REVIEW: PET WIFE - BAD WAY by Chris La Vigna ( @chrislavigna.bsky.social) Once again I am dusting off the blog to conjure up some words about some cool music that I feel that you need to check out.  Life has been an absolute chaotic psychic minefield as of late, and if you're like me, you're grasping for any piece of art to get you through the day, let alone the next four years or so. With that in mind: folks, it is my supreme pleasure to report to you that Brooklyn's PET Wife is back at it again with some more electro-pop realness. As if releasing their excellent album foam set this past spring wasn’t enough for us, their latest single, “ BAD WAY ” dropped in early October, and it has come to work its way to the top of all of your future Halloween/ Year-round Darksynth playlists, especially if you’re trying to organize your own D.I.Y. version of the blood rave sequence in Blade . It's a dark and dirty song, fast and ferocious, clocking in at one minute and fifty...

TRACK REVIEW: MAINTENANCE - "LOW LIFE"

TRACK REVIEW:  MAINTENANCE - "LOW LIFE" by Chris La Vigna ( @instant_insanity_productions ) "Alright, who's been putting 'shrooms in the dog food again?"                           It's been quite some time since I've felt compelled to post anything on this blog. Life comes at you fast, y'know? I suspect the fellas in Maintenance, who in my opinion are one of the most consistently interesting bands in the 914 music scene, would agree with that particular truism.  Though the band has been playing plenty of gigs over the last year or so, they have been largely quiet when it comes to dropping new music.  It's more than understandable when you consider just how deep of an impact the Covid-19 pandemic has had on not only the local music scene, but musicians and venues across the country. We've all had to adjust, re-organize, and re-prioritize what we've been doing with ourselves in some way or another. A...

You Should Be Watching YOUR PRETTY FACE IS GOING TO HELL

You Should Be Watching YOUR PRETTY FACE IS GOING TO HELL By Chris La Vigna ( @Chris_LaVigna) Slacker demon Gary Bunda (Henry Zebrowski) and his co-worker Ben (Ben Bladon) are doin' a Party Hole thang. You wouldn't understand. Life is Hell, right? That’s a sentiment we can all generally get behind, especially when it comes to our jobs, which seem to consume the majority of our existence on Earth. Well, what if the afterlife proved to be just as monotonous, mind-numbing, and (literally) soul crushing as your office job, with all those co-workers you hate and that supervisor that pisses all over you? That’s the premise of the Adult Swim show YOUR PRETTY FACE IS GOING TO HELL, a workplace comedy about demons working in the pits of Hades, taking Satan’s orders to get more souls. The show wrapped its fourth season in early 2019, and in the interest of promoting it to get it some more eyeballs and possibly help secure a fifth season, allow me to dive into all the...
