Episode 50: Told You Before (9-29-12)

Brand spankin’ new band from the hairy depths of Portland, Not Now, Not Ever, joined Closet Radio live in the KPSU studios for an instrumental whiplash of dark-post-prog-with-a-steaming-side-of-strings experience that you’ll thank me for later!


This fierce foursome is immensely talented at bringing epic tales of adventure to any ear brave enough to slip into their web of cinematic audio bliss. But that’s not all, because the interview portions of this episode are equally entertaining as we discuss gaming, sci-fi movies, Portland music, and how this beast of a band came to life. If you’ve gone to the dark side of the moon and were able to come back, then this is definitely and episode you won’t want to miss!


Our good pal and righteous dude, Austin Rich of Blasphuphmus Radio was also on hand to plug things in, turn knobs, push buttons, provide commentary, ask the important man questions, and of course, proving once again to be the best co-host and sound guy a Rikki could ask for! I haven’t even mentioned that he also took photos (including the one below), video, and wrote an awfully nice two-cents worth over at his portion of the web-o-tron! Be sure to check out his show as well if you haven’t already to have a spot of tea, a good listen, say hi and thanks!

Episode 33: Save That Crap For The Radio – JJCNV In-Studio (5-26-12

In this episode, JJCNV, one of my favorite Phoenix bands, stopped into the KPSU studio during their recent West Coast Tour to play some songs and tell some stories. Not only will this band blow your stripey socks off, but they’ll also leave you in stitches and begging for more! I’m so thrilled that they took the time out of supporting their new album Brainiac Handsome to come down to the underground radio cave and show Closet Radio listeners a thing or two about what playing music is all about! They’ve promised to come back soon and I most certainly hope they hold to it.

Former Experimental Saturday co-hort, DJ Austin Rich took some time away from hatching his usual audio adventures on Blasphuphmus Radio to run sound and join in the hi-jinks. He also managed to nail the entire experience on the head, as it were, over on his blog as well as being kind enough to also host the download of this episode, so I’ll try not to ramble too much and recommend hopping on over to his website to get the full run down and to also hear both glorious hours of on-the-air magic for yourself.

I’d also recommend checking out the photos JJCNV took of their experience on the show.
