And so we begin our broadcast day.

Vampyre music is calling to me from across the oceans of time…

The undead are rising.

For regular listeners of The New Abnormal, next week I will be airing the long promised retrospective of Rock Progressivo Italiano (RPI).

But I can tell already it'll have to spill over into a second week because there's just too much RPI music to go over.

Viva l'Italia 🇮🇹

Buon giorno DTO e MrM 💀

¡ ǝui̩ʇsi̩ɹɥꓛ `ᵷui̩uɹoɯ poo⅁

Christine, buon giorno!!

Questa è una buona notizia di Rock Progessivo Italiano.

@MrM, Buon giorno, re dei non morti 💀

⭐📰 🇮🇹 🎙️🎸🎷🎻🎺🎶

👑🧛🏻‍♂️

Excellent selections to start the show, DJ DaveTheObscure!

Thanks, Mr. M.

Also tomorrow, 9:00 a.m. to noon, I'm presenting a special "Sangeet", featuring all westerners performing Indian Classical Music.

Wow, I’d like to catch that show too! 6️⃣🅰️Ⓜ️❗️

Dave, thanks for the heads-up about Sangeet tomorrow morning. 🌅

Not sure how to advertise those shows. I do not participate in any social media outside of this chat room.

Good morning, nice to hear your selections this morning!

Perhaps someone on the WPRB staff could put out the good word about Sangeet tomorrow & The New Abnormal next week on the WPRB Facebook page. 💻 I don't know if PRB has presence on Instragram, Twitter, and other social media platforms because I don't have them.

Thanks, Krista. Glad you are able to listen this morning.

@Krista, good morning 🌅 Did you all ride out the storm OK yesterday?

I did tell the program director, but am not sure if there has been any followup. (DTO often does not register on radar.)

Good morning all. I liked that Nils Petter Molvær track. I think that was the one that sounded a bit Hassell-ish. Great show

And Popul Vuh was great for coffee / breakfast time acclimating to the begin of the day

Good morning, Brian. Correct about Nils Petter Molvær; he is one of the premier Hassell clones. And that wasn't even his most hasselliest.

WPRB needs a Social Media Director. (👃👆Not It!) There are all the social media accounts for the station including a Linktree and a Listener Newsletter. I don’t see posts for special upcoming shows with DJ DaveTheObscure. This is an outrage.

As I said, DTO often has no radar signature.

Oh, I didn’t see that part of the message 🤪

Exactly my point, Mr. M!

What was that again??? What’s the subject??

Did someone say something?

Dave? He's not here!

Brian D said some cool stuff!!

Emeril here!! Who wants breakfast?

And is that DJ Krista!?! HiEeeee!! 👋

Good morning, Chef.

Good morning, Chef 🍳 Did somebody say breakfast? 🥐🍊🥣 ☕

Classic here... so good

Mid 70's was, for me, TDream's peak years.

I’m stealing that American Gothic image for my day job.

Good choice, Tobias.

Yvette Young's album art for the COVET album is gorgeous.

Indeed. She is quite talented.

Bucket o Bernie Brain Clay!

With 2 guys named Brian/Bryan, how could they NOT be fantastic?

Yvette's color & texture of playing is really interesting. Glad you put them in the mix. Found out about them here

Yes, Brian, Covet's mathrock is one of the most virtuosic. And less harsh than others.

Yvette Young's classical training shining through.

A small taste of Rock Progressivo Italiano here to get you psyched for next week's 3 hour RPI retrospective. 🇮🇹

💚 Cheer-Accident

Hello, Dave the Notable! I just LOVE the "American Goth Rockers" artwork (and surely that must be the painting's title ...) on your show's WPRB page this morning. And the music selections are very fine indeed, as per usual. Major smiles! :-))

Thank you, Richard. The positive feedback is appreciated.

this started out sounding like a weird Noir soundtrack and now morphed into bliss

Yes, it's an an interesting piano duet by Miki Sawada & Brendon Randall-Meyers.

darn its not on youtube which is where i listen to 80% of my music

Ha ha! Hasn't been released yet.

Coming out on August 27th.

they are both distance runners, and their music represents the trancelike flow states and extreme physical exertion associated with that activity.

wow thats amazing. super interesting

@uno clay: So the 'bliss' section you heard was sort of like their runner's high.

was not expecting to take a musical trip like this this morning ... glad im here

Glad you were able to join us this morning, Guelo.

i guess the beginning part was where they were running through a chinatown noir part of town

Quite possibly.

Excellent show 🙏 Thank you, DTO. Later, gang!

Thanks for keeping me company in the chatroom.

cheers!

I'll be back on the air tomorrow morning, hosting Sangeet 9 a.m. to noon, where I'll present 3 hours of westerners performing Indian Classical Music.

oh! awesome!

⌛ That’s it for "ፖዚɚ ቢⱸሡ ꬂꙎꝴፁꝵጢⲀረ” for today. Thanks for listening, and participating in the chat. Stay tuned to ‘PRB for Summer Connection with Anika.

Good show Dave!

Thanks.
