The final spring otcotpus
TAndy 10:01:04 AM
I'm keeping that typo.
Dan Ruccia (host) 10:02:10 AM
Morning, TAndy! Happy to report that this octopus isn't moving for the summer
TAndy 10:02:20 AM
Hell YEAH
Dan Ruccia (host) 10:02:58 AM
First time my show hasn't moved since I started back on WPRB 3 years ago
TAndy 10:03:00 AM
Aw this is sick, one of the best VGM covers I've heard in a while
TAndy 10:03:54 AM
Maybe someday I'll break through the JRPG barrier and play this
Dan Ruccia (host) 10:03:58 AM
It almost makes me want to go replay FFVII to figure where it appears. Too bad I'm neck deep in Tears of the Kingdom to think about another game
Dan Ruccia (host) 10:04:05 AM
FFVII is super good
TAndy 10:05:01 AM
I already know the original would appeal to me just in regards to being an original playstation game, but I wonder if the remake (so far) would be fine for a new player
TAndy 10:08:47 AM
Beautiful blue skies up here, good day for me to stay in and relax after a long workweek
Dan Ruccia (host) 10:09:16 AM
I dunno. I've heard the remake is really good, but that it also adds some kinda pointless stuff. I'm pretty sure you can get a slightly cleaned up mod of it for whatever system you prefer.
TAndy 10:13:33 AM
Hmmmm.... The difficult decision to go with a fan standard enhanced mod, or keep it bone stock for old times sake.....
TAndy 10:14:19 AM
I have a hard time now with that since an enhanced Pokemon romhack nearly killed my 3DS because thegame data corrupted
Dan Ruccia (host) 10:15:53 AM
I think I may have actually bought a mod from Square directly? Pretty sure that's what I did with FFX on Switch, so it wouldn't surprise me if the older ones were available too
TAndy 10:18:38 AM
That's insane
TAndy 10:31:52 AM
Digging this
TAndy 10:41:18 AM
This mic break music too 😍
Dan Ruccia (host) 10:42:54 AM
Umberto does the 80s horror soundtrack synths right!
TAndy 10:45:15 AM
This Zola Jesus is fkn incredible too
TAndy 10:45:40 AM
I feel like I've been transported to the universe of some 80s rebellious teen movie rn
TAndy 10:46:52 AM
Oh my fucking godddddd this tune rn
Dan Ruccia (host) 10:47:05 AM
It's sooooo goooooood
TAndy 10:47:43 AM
I just previewed this album on Bandcamp, immediate buy.
Dan Ruccia (host) 10:48:36 AM
Definitely need to listen to the rest of it. This track was linked on a newsletter and I had to play it
TAndy 10:48:58 AM
This album cover too oh my god this might be one of the best album recs from this station ever
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ 10:50:57 AM
L’Rain, so brilliant
Dan Ruccia (host) 10:51:31 AM
I know she's been performing a bunch over the past couple years. I hope she has a new album soon
TAndy 10:53:23 AM
Good morning, Sir.
TAndy 10:56:37 AM
So good
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ 10:56:52 AM
Good morning, TAndy
Jon Solomon 10:59:25 AM
Jumping in to say that Lock / Mazurek record is quite enjoyable.
Dan Ruccia (host) 10:59:57 AM
I'm psyched to hear the rest of it when it drops for real. Gotta wait until July, I think?
Jon Solomon 11:00:17 AM
I can send you the full thing...remind me tomorrow.
Dan Ruccia (host) 11:00:29 AM
oooooooooooooooo
Jon Solomon 11:00:40 AM
Thanks for dropping the "s" on Damon's name, computer!
TAndy 11:03:02 AM
Mornin Jon. This one has me jammin
TAndy 11:22:28 AM
Man. I am so looking forward to beach mornings this summer with playlists like this
TAndy 11:29:07 AM
Wonderful. Rest in peace, Alice 💙
Dan Ruccia (host) 11:29:47 AM
This album is definitely an outlier in her discography, but I still feel like it gets unnecessarily overlooked
Gautham Kalva 11:51:17 AM
Hey @Dan. Thanks for introducing me to Smoke bellow. They remind me of another
Gautham Kalva 11:51:36 AM
..another of my fave bands - dry cleaning.
Dan Ruccia (host) 11:52:18 AM
I can definitely see that, Gautham!
TAndy 11:58:35 AM
Oh wow I didn't realize the time! Thank you, Dan!
Dan Ruccia (host) 11:58:41 AM
Thanks for listening, everyone! See you next week!
