Welcome back to Cybertron!

2 of the best 4 hours of every month!

Haha, thanks and welcome back Devastator!

I like the idea of festive power metal.

indeed, I didn't even know there were Christmas power metal songs until this year!

Unless Trans-Siberian Orchestra counts

I tried to stay away from TSO because I'm sure they've been playing on all the stations nonstop these past few weeks, but I was definitely a little tempted

One shall stand, one shall fall

and Megatron is the one who's fallen, in this case :) welcome Paul!

Who are we all hailing these days, starscream?

Yep Starscream runs the show these days, I'm just Soundwave's lowly intern so I don't know much of what goes on in high command though

It's more of a democracy than you'd expect

I believe there was a Galvatron who appeared in chat a few weeks back, so perhaps there will be some leadership struggles soon...

Music to fill energon cubes to

Welcome back Mok! and you're right, orchestral tunes to fill/distill energon to

coming up after this is the festive power metal madness :)

This TSFH medley has been lovely

Thanks! I love hearing their reinterpretations of some Christmas classics in their style

This song is so good!

yep, Beast in Black has lots of great tunes!

Power metal Christmas from now on. This is fantastic.

Hi everyone!

Welcome back Parrscream!

So good to FINALLY be hearing some MHF again!

Hey DJMW! How are you? I've missed the show!

Glad to have you back! I've been doing well, having lots of fun with the show as usual :) We played some of your Droid Bishop and Killstar recs last show!

That is awesome! So glad you got to play them. Thanks! I missed them because I was in Disney with the family. What did you think of the Killstar and

Cool mash-up. Digging the Christmas theme, DJMW

Droid Bishop tracks?

Welcome Li, and thanks!

Btw.... not sure if you saw this in prep for the theme of the show today but Droid Bishop does a GREAT version of "O Holy Night"!

Hope you had lots of fun in Disney, and I enjoyed the recs! We might be hearing some more Droid Bishop later in today's show actually, so stay tuned for that

:-)

oooo I gotta check that out, ty for the heads-up

Always good to hear MORE Droid Bishop!

What up Devastator?

ParrScream!

O Holy Night by Droid Bishop has been located and added to our next set :)

Ha! AWesome! Thanks DJMW! I think the listeners will love it. And it will help us get even more in the spirit!

Also, I was just thinking.... I have not heard your show since two weeks before Thanksgiving..... I tuned in on Thanksgiving but you weren't on, unfortunately.... And then I was on vacation during your last show.... it has been TOO LONG!

yes, sadly I was called away on Transformersgiving to repair some Autobot sabotage, so it's been a while! glad that you're able to tune in for Transformersmas though!

So happy to hear some of these Decepticarols! :-)

omg, I will have to borrow "Decepticarols," that's too good of a pun to miss

Thank you for transforming my mood to happy.

Nice! Use it on the holiday themed show NEXT December. :-)

Thanks Paul! A nice cube of high-grade energon and a healthy dose of power metal is sure to lift all spirits :)

Man, this Transformersmis hit different. Thank you! 🎅🏻🎄❤️

🤘

Is that GalvaShaun - Human in disguise, that just joined the chat?

Parrscream, whatever do you mean? 😝

Yes!! SynthMas set! Awesome! Thank you DJMW

I love this song. It is so relaxing.

Welcome back GalvaShaun, and thanks! Hope your holiday conquering and destroying has been going well :)

DJMW... Are you going to be on for your next scheduled show on Jan. 6th?

yep, I'll be on the airwaves on the 6th!

*assuming no Autobot sabotage, that is, but hopefully the Autobots are taking a break from the war effort over the holidays too :)

GalvaShaun, Devastator and I will combine our forces to ensure there's no Autobot sabotage.

Some requests for future shows from some albums I've picked up over the past month+.....

"Slay" by Arcade High, "Satellites" by Starcadian and anything off of the new Hollywood Burns album: "The Age of Saucers" - I think those groups, songs and albums all fit in with the theme of the show pretty well.

This Turbo Knight song is excellent

sweet, thank you for those requests! I really enjoyed the last Arcade High rec and am super excited to hear more :)

yep Devastator, Turbo Knight is great! also, truly the best-fitting artist name for the type of music they make!

Awesome. Arcade High's new album is different than a lot of their earlier stuff... I am still getting used to it... I LOVE their older stuff but am only kind of liking this new album BUT that song "Slay" is a killer. VERY Daft Punk which is not what they ususally do.

ooo, Daft Punk you say? now I definitely have to check this song out

The sight of KITT and KARR colliding in a mid-air jump was a defining moment for a young Devastator.

Thanks again for the show, DJ MW!

didn't know KARR was a Knight Rider reference until you brought up KITT and KARR together, you learn something new everyday!

Thanks so much for tuning in, everyone! Have a safe & happy holiday season, and see you in the new year :)

Yes, I agree with Devastator.... thanks for the great tunes as always.... so glad I was able to join again after a hiatus that lasted too long.

Great show DJMW! Thank you! Happy Holidays! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! See you next year Parrscream and Devastator! 😝
