MUSIC
 
Internet Radio (and broadcast radio)    
     
  DJ Todd's Real Synthetic Audio.
Easily my favorite online industrial show. Updated weekly and always made with "canadian ham" and fish tank noises in the background.
     
  Seattle's own C-89 FM.
Over 25 years of dance music, broadcast from a High School educational station, programmed and aired much better than some professional stations. I used to volunteer there to help spin the Wednesday night "C-89 Underground Rave" and then the "C-89 Underground" shows with Jason "Hitmaster" Micherre and "your host" Damon Micheals.
Paul Alienikoff has hosted the Sunday industrial/gothic show "On The Edge" for many years now and continues to do a great job.
     
  DoctorButcher's Insurrection Radio.
Stompy goodness, from Scotland to the world.
     
  DJ Hana Solo's channel on Live365.
Hana has been the resident Saturday night dj at the Mercury nightclub here in Seattle for nearly 10 years (not that I've seen her spin live, since the Merc is members-only and I'm not cool). Her web-show is great though.
     
  DJ Tommy T and crew with their weekly radio show on KUNM in Albuquerque NM.
     

  Anybody who pimps my friend's CDs is OK with me.
     
Places to get good tunes    
     

  More expensive than iTunes, but no f*#~ing DRM (the songs are yours, use them as you want) and they only do dance music. They don't have everything (yet), but they carry a lot of stuff no one else does.
I spend a lot of time there browsing.
     
  GYBO.
The place to find mash-ups and cool homemade remixes.
If you can find it... the url changes. A lot.
     
Bands I like (and seem to like me too)    
     
  Caesar (Wideband Network) Filori + Paul (Psykosonik) Sebastian
= Basic Pleasure Model.

Their second single is available now (click here), featuring a remix by yours truly.
     
  Caesar (Basic Pleasure Model) Filori + Casey (3PM) Clark
= Wideband Network.
     
  Chris Ianuzzi.
NY's own one man synth army.
     
  Dave Strand & Co.
Arizona must put something in the water.
     
  Carsten P's one man industrial show.
     
     

  Ian 'LV' Davenport (aka FakeID, Lionel Vinyl, Gloomy Bear, etc., etc. etc.). Whatever name he decides to use, he's one of the best underground remixers working.

He's currently half of Geek Chic Soundsystem.
Local clubs    
     
  Narrow. Smoky. But sometimes fun.
     
  Out of business for a while due to the Nisqually earthquake but now back and hosting live shows like SMP, etc.
     

OTHER PEOPLE I LIKE (who don't seem to mind me)

   
     

  Video editing and production, with discriminating taste in backing music (I've done several tracks for him).
     
  The man with Flash and PhotoShop, and a damn good bass player too
     
  Coolest cartoonist/animator I know.
     
  Mark Tutton (aka Starfighter Ace) is my main supplier for custom decals for war-gaming minis. His products are fantastic, as is his customer-service. Highly recommended.
     

MORE WEBSITES I LIKE

   
     
  NWDMA. My "alma mater" in dance music. The oldest dj record pool in Seattle, and one of the longest standing pools in the US. I was a proud member for nearly ten years during the 1990's, working my way up to #13 in a membership of 50.
     
  The on-going antics of Oneryboy, Dirtygirl and their pet zombie Brian.
     
  Oneryboy artist Michael Lalonde does all the art from ideas by his partner Jennifer for this awesome t-shirt and other goodies site. Nice people, cool & cute shirts, great service.
     
  Seattle's own Japanese-import store. Get yer chogokin there.
     
  Once you get passed the incredibly cluttered site design, you can get lost there for days. And keep coming back.
     
  More stupidity (with twice the nudity).
     
  Homestar Runner is my hero but I want to be as cool as Strong Bad someday.
     
  Every cool thing done in flash ends up here.
