Once upon a time

On today’s show, Andy hangs out with Steve from Opus Science Collective — a one-man musical powerhouse, teacher, and cool guy. They chat about the origins of his misleadingly plural band name, dive into synths, chiptune, city pop, and even get interrupted by his senile cat, Yoda.

Steve and Andy nerd out over classic cartoons like The Real Ghostbusters and Transformers, the weirdness of N64 emulation, and fantasies about dream geek spaces — including Lego rooms and CRT-filtered arcades.

"NAEON" New Synthwave Album Preview - Tracks 10-13

"The Streets Of Rage" is my take on one of my all time favourite game soundtracks. Being a huge fan of this game since its release back in the early 90's, I thought id make a live looping track for my live shows. 

Enjoy Retro Gamers!!
