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.

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

I hope everyone enjoyed the best of show from last week. They always take a lot of time and I inevitably have to cut a song or two out, and I usually agonize over the final selection for like a week. But we're diving right into 2024 with both a new Shirt Sale and a brand new show as we approach the 2024 membership drive. Lots of great prizes for everyone this year!

RSA January 1st 2024 - Best Of 2023 Show!
This is it! The restrospective for 2023, the best of! This year was much more low key for music than recently, not as many all time club bangers, but a lot of great stuff was released. We've got a couple of covers this year, but if I were to sum up the "theme" for this years show it would be lyrics. From the singing styles of Electra Black, the story told by Probe 7, or stuff falling apart and Eva X singing "And yes I'll take these things in stride." Wonderful stuff that was fun to compile, so I'm releasing it a day or so early so you can enjoy this at your NYE party!

A very Merry Christmas to everyone, especially those who are working today. Once upon a time I worked every Christmas so my co-workers could spend time with their families. Now I'm getting the show done 6 days in advance because I have so much stuff going on over the holidays! But that means that I have to get something special, a gift to you. So what else am I going to do than take a small trip down memory land as I play some favourites that have made thier way into the generic "EBM" folder on my phone.

Crazy weekend so far. Woken at 6am on Saturday by the super saying there was a flood and I needed to "sandbag" my door with towels. No water or power all day. Thank god for my habits of keeping everything charged after use. So with that said, I finished the show this morning and was like "Thats enough for now. I'm exhausted." But I gave the show another "proof listen" and caught my (first?) second wind. So if I'm a tad incoherent for once I have I good reason other than general reocurring brain farts.

Its been a busy week here at RSA central. Firstly I had a test print done and I can say that we'll have another RSA T-Shirt shortly, and we should be taking orders in January. It'll be announced at the same time as we do the annual best of show on January 1! I went through the suggestions I got, added my own opinions and managed to get the best of show done last night. I'll probably get some finalization done on it over the next week, but the holiday season will be full of great music for everyone!
