Not gonna lie; I've been jamming to it all week.

Show Notes:
Intro: Baddd Spellah – "Radio Free Hipster Theme (feat. Beefy)"
If I ran a summer camp for lovable misfits, these guys'd be my counselors.
Track 1: Select Start – "Color of the Summer Sky"
I don't generally start the show with an instrumental, but this one's so tight I made an exception.
Z's 1st interlude: "The price you pay to ride the music train with me."
Even I don't know what the hell this means.
Track 2: Solid Bold – "Summertime Loving, Loving in the Summer (Time)"
I love me some Regular Show.
Track 3: Teleidofusion – "Summer Mood"
Have I played this track before? I swear I have, but, once again, Google disagrees.
Track 4: Friday dialog / Adam WarRock – "Maybe (I Can Call You?)"
Mock me if you will, but "Call Me Maybe" is an exquisite pop song.
Track 5: Girl Talk – "Smash Your Head"
I was kind of in the mood for some Biggie. And also some Elton John.
Track 6: Slime Girls – "Vacation Wasteland"
Another fine freebie from Pterodactyl Squad.
Track 7: Doctor Popular – "Bad as They Seem (feat. Unwoman)"
I was actually pretty excited when I realized I wasn't the only person who remembered this one.
Track 8: Swamp Thing – "123"
A fitting introduction to Canada's three-headed musical beast.
Z's 2nd interlude: "While we're gettin' all Canadian up in here."
Related note: I am supporting Team Canada in this summer's Olympic Quidditch action.
Track 9: Teletran – "Beachwave"
Who knew what this song was missing was a dash of "Blue Monday?"
Track 10: Inverse Phase – "Atarible Lie"
Pretty Eight Machine is the first project to make me intentionally listen to anything Nine Inch Nails-related in years.
Track 11: POCKETMAN – "Just a Summer Drizzle"
K.K. Slider is my dawg. #seewhatididthere
Track 12: Nuclear Bubble Wrap – "Hulkulele"
Another nice tie-in to the summer's first true super hero blockbuster.
Z's final interlude: "This slice of warm-weather fun."
I'm not saying you have to play this podcast at your next barbecue. But, y'know, if you want too…
Track 13: Lager Rhythms – "Your Horoscope for Today"
The Twenty-Six and a Half Weird Al tribute is still in heavy rotation on my end.
It sorta seems this show is a continuation of the previous episode. And I'm fine with that. Occasionally we delve the darker side of geeky music around here, so if I'm lead to keep shit positive for a whole month I reckon that's a good thing.
As always, I appreciate your thoughts on the show, not to mention your song suggestions.
Thanks for the summer music fix Z! Color of the Summer Sky by Select Start is delightful. Once again you've provided a great venue for artists I likely wouldn't have discovered elsewhere. Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteYeah, that seemed like the perfect jumping-off point for the show, Shannon. Glad you agree!
