ROGC: Hallowe’eny e’en special!

Ever hear the sound of DJ mummy dust blow past a microphone? or the subtle sound of cobwebs on a turntable? How about creaking, squealing headphones from beyond?

Didn’t think so – and we kept it that way. Hope you tuned in for a live mixed audio spook fix though – sounds & stories

– presented by the Royal Oakland Gramophone Company.

Ok, sometimes I really didn’t try hard enough with the themes…I mean…it was the night BEFORE Hallowe’en, so I gave you a Hallowe’en Eve show – simple formula. But unlike any unrelenting sugary references to holiday ‘boo!’ characters typical of Halloween shows, I was going for something both seasonally fun AND genuinely spooky. Plus I even played 20 seconds of Bark at the Moon.
Shut up!!! It’s my show… I can do whatever I want!
Seriously, I think this show works at any time of the year, and your iPod doesn’t even have to be black and covered in polyester cobwebs -n- candy corn.

Ub Radio: Black Asphalt

Whatever you do, DO NOT listen to this webcast (either live or in it’s archived form) while operating a slipping, sliding, skidding, rolling, crunching or otherwise moving vehicle…..

However, we do advocate & suggest “Black Asphalt” while wearing a pair of headphones in an easy chair placed safely on the side of highway.

Featuring full waitressing service by the lovely ladies of the Roadside Diner.

This night, sounds and voices brought to you by dAS, Ninah pixie, Melissa, Thomas Dimuzio, Univac, Rob Wortman

Murder On Moth Mountain!

Blevin Blectum, Lesser, and The Royal Oakland Gramophone Company joined together to bring you an all expenses paid, luxury 2 hour vacation at the scenic, s&S alpine hideaway.

“But there is no murder, no moths, no mountain”, you say!?

Ha! Well, there you go. WMOF – Moth Mountain Radio simply serves our little escapist community with words, noise and music. Considering the rule that closets remain wide open…I’d say, “Yeah, there are plenty of freakin moths about!”
