Today has been an emotionally devastating day. I\u2019m heartbroken and so exhausted that simply typing the words you are reading is draining.<\/p>\n\n
A few words about today\u2019s show before I call it a night.<\/p>\n\n
I launched SOUNDWAVE to help cope with the stress and isolation of COVID-19. Usually the mixes are melancholy or uplifting but either one gave me succor. Today\u2019s mix from Metal Postcard Records<\/a> founder, Sean Hocking, got me through today with it\u2019s playfulness and sense of humor. I hope it will do the same for you.<\/p>\n\n I discovered Metal Postcard Records waaay<\/em> back when I was a deejay at a private radio station in San Diego. I featured Metal Postcard Records on solipsistic NATION<\/a> and have been in touch with Sean ever since and invited him to participate in my Friends Mix<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n Sean\u2019s mix is all over the place. If you enjoy today\u2019s show, I encourage you to check out the music on his label, which is just as eclectic and runs the gamut to punk to psychedelia.<\/p>\n\n Join us again next week when our guest deejay will be brother in podcasting, Jason Randall Smith, of the Both Sides of the Surface<\/a> podcast.<\/p>\n\n See you then.<\/p>\n\n
