Rishi, you were here: Boris Johnson’s woes

Read by Victor Bevine

From New York Times bestselling author R. A. Salvatore comes the follow-up to Starlight Enclave and thrilling second novel in his newest trilogy, The Way of the Drow, expanding the Forgotten Realms through the adventures of Drizzt, Catti-brie, Jarlaxle, Artemis Entreri, and Zaknefein…and a society of drow unlike one any elf from Menzoberranzan could possibly imagine.


There’s a lot that Jarlaxle doesn’t know: is he the lone survivor of the raid on the slaad fortress, can he even find a way to get out, and beyond his immediate predicament, could he possibly escape the ice caverns and get help for his friends?

However, what Jarlaxle does know is that if he plans to come back—if Catti-brie, Entreri, and Zaknafein are to have any hope of surviving—he’s going to have to bring back far more firepower. An army of aevendrow seems unlikely, so he must go home and pull together a team with great skill and unimaginable power.

But how will he get home? Will such a collection of warriors and mages come to his aid? And even if he manages all that, will it be enough? For Jarlaxle has seen the slaadi’s power and their god in a most personal and terrifying way.

Trapped in the ice while the world is on fire, Jarlaxle is in a race against time—and burdened with a magical secret—to save a peaceful city and his companions.

And he’s running out of tricks in his bag of holding…

Virginyah, RSN - Therapy Sessions Remixes & Instrumentals 

Catalogue No: TMDG 227
Release Date: August 26, 2022
Media: Digital & Special Edition CDR

Back in February 2021 Virginyah made her debut solo appearance on Timewarp Music with her inspiring release 'What Do You Want'! Now, again with the remarkable contribution and guidance of Rsn in the production, we are very happy to present some new versions and instrumental tracks of this release! 

Virginyah, RSN - Therapy Sessions remixes & instrumentals showcases two new remixes and five instrumental versions of the original release! 

Well known producer and dj Jayl Funk introduces the release with his take on 'Get Away'. Jayl Funk with his signature sound and production gives his version of a more funk downtempo, soulful groovy version of the track. The warm playful vocals of Virginyah are harmonically combined with a trip hop groove style giving us a sweet, mellow result. 

Greek - Crete based and one of our Kraak Records favourite, mCurtis, is responsible for remixing 'Why'. The result is a downtempo trip hop gem, very atmospheric and chill out perfectly encasing Virginyah's ethereal vocals! 

All five tracks of the original release are also presented in their instrumental versions - giving a shout out to the amazing production of Rsn while giving the chance to instrumental dj's to be able and spin the non vocal versions.

Virginyah, RSN - Therapy Sessions Remixes & Instrumentals will be available on August 26, 2022 as a digital download and special edition CDR at timewarpstore and all digital music retailers and streaming services worldwide.

Twitch of Fun #70 - Nude - Richard and his puppet pals are back from their holidays and trying to remember how everything works. Unfortunately for us they more or less manage it, although they need to resort to a tiny amount of puppet porn to keep viewer figures up. Apart from that, it's business as usual - a bit of singing, a touch of satire, and some heart stopping predictions from Sybil.
