SoD 2000 Update and HEAVY METAL MELTDOWN

2011-10-03T10:04:00.000-07:00

HEY FINKS!!

I know... I know... I haven't been seen for a month or two now and I did say that The Surfphony is back! Well, in some capacity! I've been working hard on getting things together for the new start-up, didn't want to dive in headfirst and get caught in the undertow, YA DIG? So, I've been trying to put together the first few episodes of The S.o.D. 2000 before I release them! That way, you get a METRIC TON of Surf right away and I don't get caught up trying to rush things each week.

In the meantime, I have been working on a couple of projects besides The Surfphony 2000!

HEAVY METAL MELTDOWN

60 minutes of SOME SERIOUSLY HEAVY METAL! If you dig 80's Heavy Metal, then this will be right up your alley! Packed with bands such as ACCEPT, W.A.S.P., EXODUS, GIRLSCHOOL, BLACK SABBATH and way more! THE HEAVY METAL MELTDOWN IS FAST AND LOUD AND NEVER SLOWS DOWN!

DOWNLOAD IT HERE!

I also handed out a couple of Demos to a few folks at a show in Oshawa. If you happened to stumble upon this site, Welcome to The Surfphony of Derstruction!

We have a Facebook page! Come check it out! Like us too, because I usually post more there!

Can't forget to give credit where credit is due! Thanks to Dollaberry of DeviantArt for the awesome leather texture I used on Heavy Metal Meltdown and the background for the Surfphony Logo!

And to everyone (all two of you) who are patiently waiting for the Surfphony of Derstruction 2000 to get back on the road, just hold on a little longer and your dreams will come true!

STAY TUNED!!

It was a bit of a loose theme and I allowed some breathing room to hit up the casbah as well as stop in at the ol' watering hole down in the amazon jungles!

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAW!!! HEY COWFINKS!! Sheriff Derk Brigante here again for The Surfphony of Derstruction! This episode, we heard THE CALL OF THE WEST and found ourselves out in the Wild West lookin' for somewhere to SURF! The tide decided to meet us halfway and so we had plenty of cacti and seaweed to go around! The specialty of this week's Surfphony of Derstruction was all sorts of Western sounding Surf! Yeehaw! Something unusual about this show was that much of the artists were CANADIAN! HUH?! Kind of unusual seeing as many of the artists are from the Great White North rather than the Wild West! I guess Canadians never forgot the Alamo either!

Canadian artists are in BOLD

Good thing is that nothing was in our way this week and The Surfphony was at full throttle ALL NIGHT! woooooooo! Great show this week, LOTS of new stuff got some play!

VINYL MELTDOWN

2011-02-05T14:01:00.000-08:00

HEY FINKS!

If you dug the SURF IN SPACE episode of The Surfphony of Derstruction, then I have a SERIOUS recommendation for you!

I accidentally stumbled upon this site when I was looking for album art of Sleazy Surf. I'll skip the story about how I got there and just drop this link...

RIGHT HERE.

yeah! alright! Reserve Radio have some really high-quality podcasts with some rare music. Vinyl Meltdown specializes in a lot of 50-cent bin vinyl so I'm sure you will hear some real obscure stuff!

Anyways, I'm getting off track... I came here to let you know about their SPACE episode! At the time of writing this, I'm currently listening to it but I've already listened to a couple of different episodes of Vinyl Meltdown so I know this one will be good.

HERE IT IS

Enjoy!

SurfGuitar101 has a podcast series available on their site as well. Look under Episode 7 for Space Surf!

February 1st

2011-02-01T20:44:00.000-08:00

HEY FINKS!! I accidentally deleted the playlist for this show!! WAH WAAAAAAAAAH! Hahaha, stupid move BUT I still remember some songs I played so I will post a couple of youtube videos! I had a mini-theme going tonight, all about Link Wray and his heavy instros! Daaaaang! Also heard were some Link Wray influenced surf songs! NICE!

Link Wray's "Run Chicken Run"

Link Wray's "Climbing a High Wall"

Link Wray's '78 rendition of Rumble. The quality isn't the best but it's still kinda kool!

what a hodad!!

Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet's cover of "Run Chicken Run"

Here's a link to the podcast page. Podcasts are currently down, no one knows when they may be back up.

HEY FINKS! The Surfphony of Derstruction came rolling back in for another KOOL TUESDAY!! B-) I pulled a fast one and decided that The Surf would be "Venturing Out" of its usual tunes. I looked far and wide and listened to many a surf tune to come up with a episode that had a real upbeat ala The Ventures, one of the most prominent Instrumental bands of the '60's. The Ventures played all sorts of originals and covers and we got to hear a real neat variety on this episode, along with other similar songs new and old!


Artist	song
los straitjackets	venturing out
shadowy men on a shadowy planet	siesta cinema
phonocomb	pummelled
the ventures	she's a lady
the expressos	teenage express
the islander	the sunliners
the ventures	paint it black
the modelos	empire of the sun
the surfdusters	surf buggy
atomic seven	her sassy kiss
the ventures	slaughter on tenth avenue
the deadlies	double H
dick dale	big black cad
the ventures	guitar psychedelics
the ventures	exploration in terror

2010-12-07T16:51:00.000-08:00

Hey Finks! This week's episode of The Surfphony of Derstruction fell under SOCAN tracking period so I decided to make this episode an all Canadian one! I featured surf bands from all over Canada, old and new. I played a very special Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet track, "Autobahn", originally by Kraftwerk!


artist	song
the reverb syndicate	zis is KAOS!
the blue demons	empire santo
shadowy men on a shadowy planet	what I like about grease
the von drats	phantom chop
atomic 7	your ironic t-shirt
the squires	sultan
the reverb syndicate	the code is ********
the robots	ride the surf
mark malibu & the wasagas	wasaga run
v-necks	sand overdose
the robots	stinky juliens
shadowy men on a shadowy planet	autobahn
urban surf kings	man from adano
the reverb syndicate	martini cluster
the von drats	strachen steve
the burnin' sands	walkin' on burning sands
urban surf kings	go go island

There are three bands I played of particular importance. First, The Squires! The Squires was Neil Young's very first band, emulating the style of The Shadows and in the track we heard, Sultan, a very "Apache"-esque sound! Second, two bands from Toronto in the '80's, Mark Malibu & The Wasagas and V-Necks. The two tracks I played are all I have ever found of them, besides a couple of pictures on Flickr. Really neat songs!

I played a couple of contemporary surf bands. Check out their myspaces, dig?

The Robots - Oshawa's own!

The Von Drats - We heard a couple of tracks from their new album Dratsylvania, available through their very own website! Thanks to Dave Von Drat for the pack of tracks!

The Reverb Syndicate - They were very kind to send me their two albums, Operation: Jet Set! and Sputnik-A-Go-Go. Click Here for their official website.

November 30th - MIDNIGHT IN SALERNO

2010-11-30T16:49:00.000-08:00

What a night, finks! The weather in Windsor was complete crap! It was dark and rainy as hell outside! The perfect weather for The Surfphony of Derstruction's FIRST-EVER theme show: MIDNIGHT IN SALERNO! We played all sorts of Nighttime Surf and it was good times! I had plenty of material to keep us goin', maybe even till midnight! Here's the playlist of what I did get to spin:


artist	song
urban surf kings	luger 3
the reverb syndicate	onto checkpoint bravo
the chesterfield kings	moon relay
the tempomen	midnight on pier 13
the bambi molesters	the kiss off
zz top	asleep in the desert
the debonaires	high wall
huevos rancheros	please pass the ketchup
deep note	sleeping with erik
atomic 7	seven stranded castanets
the ventures	music to watch girls by
mr gasser and the weirdos	midnight run
hula hoop	girls from ipanema

the reverb syndicate	m's lament

HUH?!?! ZZ TOP?! What is ZZ TOP doing on DA SURF?! First of all, ZZ TOP is ol' skool kool! Second, ZZ Top consists of amazing instrumentalists and the track Asleep in the Desert attests to that.

I was really excited about playing this song and talking about it on-air but I missed my chance! So here, check it out again!

Unfortunately, I cannot post as many youtube videos this week as a lot of the tracks I spun are troublesome to find on youtube.

In other news, I will be filling in for Martin Schiller of Tacit Karaoke this Sunday, December 5th. Tacit Karaoke is an all-instrumental program on CJAM 99.1 and I will adhere to the instrumentality! Not surf though, but something else... tune in to find out! THIS SUNDAY @6 PM on CJAM 99.1!

One more thing, SOCAN tracking period is coming up this weekend! December 5,6, and 7th! The Surfphony is on during this period so next week is an impromptu theme show! I will be spinning all Canadian surf bands in hopes that they are registered with SOCAN and get some money from the gov'! So, if you happen to be a Canadian surf band member reading this blog, Register for SOCAN and let me know that you want your tracks played!

Here's a Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet video to celebrate Canuck Surf!!

LET IT BE KNOWN. THAT THIS WAS A GOOD SHOW! I enjoyed it and I hope that you all did too. We took a look at Eddie & The Showmen's rendition of Squad Car. Originally recorded by The Bel-Airs, Eddie Bertrand of The Bel-Airs formed Eddie & The Showmen, a more Dick Dale-esque, guitar oriented surf band. The Showmen's cover of Squad Car is the preferred basis for many modern surf bands that have recorded the song.

Here's the original Bel-Airs recording:

This week (Oct 12) we had the usual surfin' time with a special look at the famous surf tune, Misirlou. I discussed the origins of Misirlou, how it came to prominence in Surf music and the song's cult status along with covers and reinterpretations of Misirlou.

Dick Dale's Misirlou:

Takeshi Terauchi (The Surfphony's favorite international surf guitarist) and his interpretation of Misirlou:

Also heard on the Surfphony this week were Canadian surf ensembles The Reverb Syndicate and Luau or Die!

hey, so if you have listened or are listening to the show, then you know what im talking about! I played a song by Pierre Louvet, "attends bourin", and it sounded a lot like a song from Super Mario World!

here's the song from SMW

and im still working on finding a link or something for the pierre louvet song, ill get back to that one.

Here's another comparison that I was talking about! Sonic The Hedgehog, the first game in the series, and the level Marble Zone, definitely draw some influnce from The Ventures' "Music to Watch Girls By". DIG IT

This is some music to watch girls by (im not sure if this is the right one, i'm on-air and i cant listen to it.)

MARBLE ZONE

check it out and see for yourself WILL YA

Special night on the S of D. I did the very first theme show on SoD, it being the covers show. I played 80's songs covering popular favorites such as Light My Fire, Love Will Tear Apart and I am the Walrus, among others. Some contemporary artists covering 80's songs thrown in for good times! Next week will be Instrumental.
