Today, Andy chats with Alex Lightspeed and a few of his co-conspirators Todd Daggett and The Neon Syndicate! Alex talks about fixing up old Pontiac Fieros, getting one of his tracks in the Forza Horizon soundtrack, and even getting one of his cars into a major Hollywood picture starring Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen. Todd chats about his drum and bass roots and writing novels, Gabriele loves keytars and bell peppers, and Alex sunk in the mud at burning man. And if you love cryo-chambers than hang on to your hats because we talk about the thing you love.

Beyond Synth - 430 - Opus Science Collective (OSC)
On todayās show, Andy hangs out with Steve from Opus Science Collective ā 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 ā including Lego rooms and CRT-filtered arcades.
