Dave Tompkins is the only guest I've ever had on "Spine Blowing Decisions." He continues to lay claim to that exclusive title with his return guest appearance on the latest edition of the program, which is informally subtitled "Too Many Daves" (after one of my kid's preferred Dr. Seuss yarns) and is now available here for your listening pleasure. Taking a brief respite from touring the nation spreading computer love via book release parties, power point presentations, and lists like this, Dave braved the sweltering temperatures here in NYC last week, and rolled uptown to the estate to share some sounds. This would include vocoder speech tests, Latin Rascals @ the wrong speed, Computer People Communicators, Trevor Horn's lost contribution to The Warriors OST, the scariest Bee Gees song you've ever heard, an even scarier Burgess Meredith/Ray Bradbury interlude, and some Italo jams we mixed on the fly ("Future Woman's" freaky extended talk box solo being particularly mojo-rejuvenating). (EDIT: For an actual playlist, additional vital stats, and other specifics see DCT's own mix liners here.)
Also still available for those who slept is Dave and Monk's monster of a book mix - conceived in the dead of winter, unleashed on an unsuspecting public this past spring, and sounding more apropos than ever now that the days are getting shorter.
