San Jose ambient-techno artist Toaster (aka Todd Elliott) visits the studio to preview tracks from his latest release "The Banging Process".

Starting off on a new leaf, Malderor is completely sober. Good tunes this week, too. (This show has been edited to include 13 minutes of additional content as Dr Junk wandered over time.)

Brian Takenaka, Tokyo-based producer of loops and beats, visits Dr. Junk and Malderor at their Secret Lair.

Given familial duties and internet issues, Malderor ended up doing this show as a live remote from a campground (with Wi-Fi) on the Mendocino Coast, near Point Arena. Dr Junk bravely held down the studio (and all the technical hassles) to make this show happen.

We're both hungover this week. Malderor's German work colleague Helge drops in for a quick visit, and Malderor leaves early for a work xmas party. There is also much jiggling of wires to make the mp3 players work.

This is a super-hungover post-Bootie show. Always our sloppiest shows. But...start of a trend...

(This episode has now been edited to include the 17 drunken minutes we ran overtime into the Robert Levy White Power Hour.)

After last week's one-sided punk-rock fest, Dr Junk actually brought some records this week. This is sort of our first "real" episode. Wow, we sound wobbly. We get better, honest. (Show has now been edited to include the 14 minutes we ran overtime.)

This was our first actual show, and it's amusing how uncertain we sound. Dr. Junk didn't bring any records this week, so I spent the program educating him about the fundamentals of punk rock music. (Show has now been edited to include the 16 minutes we ran overtime.)
