    PSTB #54: Project Studio 54, life-threatening Nickelback, and a Fun Lovin’ Criminal

    This month sees the ultimate embodiment of toast Foley, Project Studio 54, sneaking in the back door of The 27 Club on a technicality, thereby clearing the decks for a forthcoming cinematic release of Commercial Studio Banquet. It's a culinary bonanza, as Mike tastes the music while nursing a GM hangover, Jon tastes his own Olivier Award with Draco Malfoy, and Abel Selaocoe tastes gateway-drug salad from an everlasting queue. And in an emotional homecoming, Lydia Sherwood's backspaceless AI alerts us to The Fun Lovin' Criminal And His Two Guest Perpetrators, while MoFi apply their Instagram kitten filter to the masterpieces of Manet in an attempt to save famous Muppet musicians from the life-threatening effects of Nickelback. Sadly, though, it is here we must leave your intrepid hosts for posterity, clinging to trees with their teeth while Einaudi enriches the hack with pedals of beautifully framed formula.

    PSTB #53: One-of-one-so-far space-vinyl, swearing by proxy, and Ray Of Sunshine Against The Machine

    In this month's individually hand-marbled episode, Mike welcomes Whon Jitten into his world of vocal-editing pain, tormenting him with James Blunt, a unionised bee in a Tupperware box, and a truly horrifying polar-pattern selection. Joining them is 2021's second biggest sell-out, Bob Dylan, eschewing mayonnaise for overpriced one-of-one-so-far space-vinyl. So if you're not showering on a busy road under a helicopter while mowing the lawn, do join us in getting 80 percent of the way there with just two clicks. Alternatively, fix yourself a snack of buttered marshmallow and cosmic salami, and skate-mosh the night away to Ray Of Sunshine Against The Machine, Malmsteen's shawm, or Biffy Clyro's swearing by proxy. It's enough to make you want to scream for a living...

    PSTB #52b: Episode? What episode?

    In a spectacular double facepalm, Jon and Mike were completely unable to coordinate a podcasting date last month (or even early this month), but -- never fear! -- we have a couple of juicy extras to tide you over until the next proper episode in October. As if EDM fans didn't already have enough reasons to hit the bourbon... Fancy more of our nonsense?

    PSTB #52: Googlewhack drum enhancement, iPod Skywalker, and The CPU Sizzler

    It seems like only yesterday that Mike was dancing on block-colour backgrounds with 905 songs in his pocket, but his extraodinarily slow-acting curse has finally been fulfilled as Darth Cassette revanquishes iPod Skywalker in the stirring finale of The Airpods Strike Back. Meanwhile, Jon has been getting the pseuds on board by hurling his angry, passionate talent at the microphone and rattling his big draw of nicknacks and marbles (one of his cheapest, dirtiest music-production whotsits). If you're feeling more bouffant than thou, then you'll doubtless be shredding with Yngwie Malmsteen on a 14-string guitar with an M.C. Escher headstock and the cleverness of The Ancients. Or if you've been suffering from a truly three-ghoster facepalm (perhaps because those googly eyes have been looking straight into your soul), then perhaps some Googlewhack drum enhancement might help you enjoy Game Of Shrooms or Drunk Shakespeare while you snack messily on The CPU Sizzler. Needless to say, art critics have not been invited to weigh in on the subject.

    PSTB #51: Martian breakfast, lip-sync ballet, and The Dukes Of Haphazard

    By the power of the shiny-haired Hrímnir frá Hvammi, a shiny-headed Jon has been doing his Gollum-inspired Riverdance over a functional horse-keyboard, causing the word 'utilise' to vanish beautifully. Setting aside the JV1080 jubilee strings, however, he's been working hard at a Republican campsite to make his guitar sound as awful as The Dukes Of Haphazard. But could anything be as awful as Diana Ross's headline lip-sync ballet at the Platinum Party At The Palace? Mike, the segue king, struggles to believe it, and is currently self-medicating with Martian breakfast, canned angelic shimmer, and glittery sprinkles on every technological unicorn. If you'd like to listen to Mike's in-depth review of Sound Theory's Gullfoss plug-in, complete with a variety of illustrative audio examples, then check out this free-to-listen episode of the Cambridge-MT Patrons Podcast: https://www.patreon.com/posts/cambridge-mt-27623076 Fancy more of our nonsense?

    PSTB #50: MIDI boiled eggs, exploding headpumps, and other unskeptical noisies

    Inspired by Vidal Sasson, this month's episode is full of sparkletubes, slideyfarts, bashable barcodes, exploding headpumps, and many other unskeptical noisies. MIT are back to their old tricks, playing keepy-uppy in zero G with their dodecahedral space shaker. But they're no match for Jon, singing Kylie Minogue on a War Horse to the accompaniment of chimes that go 'thunk', or Mike dancing with his shoelace amidst a barrage of MIDI boiled eggs. Also, there's a bunch of grumbling Dads riding their pickup moped on a quest for bespoke pencil erasers, while also bringing Pringle Pringles to a shark-tamer in Mozambique. All in a day's work for anyone with a Jackson Pollock career trajectory. Fancy more of our nonsense?

    PSTB #49: Agent-swap Bumble, herringbone origami, and Bela Fleck’s musical chicken

    Recorded from tea-cup perspective for maximum authenticity, this episode explains how to get from Douglas Adams to Terry Pratchet (via Brian Wilson) in a sleepy country voice. Jon, as befits a member of his multi-award-winning community, has been filling numerous creative roles: convicted pirate; amateur organ salesman; inadvertently fraudulent (but unfireable) accountant; and inverse Lazarus, smiting the unworthy asunder. So how come his SM58 died of shame? Mike, on the other hand has been installing the latest in New Age musical-box security while extolling the virtues of choral child labour, Bela Fleck's musical chicken, and agent-swap Bumble. In Alanis Morissette's happy village, meanwhile, we witness the shocking abuse of some herringbone origami by a bunch of Tony Bennetts wielding slowly wilting flowers, and learn how best to display 15 Grammies. So leave your vintage paperweights behind, honeychild, and join us as we build a compost heap to the accompaniment of 'Leave The Montero Open'. Those about to be drunk, we salute you!

    PSTB #48: The Tamagotchi recorder, BV shred-concealment, and a fretless foghorn

    This month, a densely-woven Jon's been struggling to keep his mind out of the gutter by smearing a microphone thinly over the top of a modest vape rig and pushin a pre-1994 Barbie doll into a red cabbage, while serving borscht to a red-headed widow. Mike, though, has officially been busier than him, scribbling a 10-year callback on manuscript at 3am and shouting 'Number!' at other podcasters in a hell of his own making. Nevertheless, he's found time to brush aside Will Smith's slap (despite living under a Rock) and consider this year's Oscar-nominated songs. We hear about Billie Eilish trying not to suck. Van Morrison's car-horn brass and BV shred-concealment. A drone-dodging Reba McEntire losing her precariously balanced hat. And Beyonce leaving her ornamental trombonists unpainted for want of a euphoniumist's chair. In other news, we channel George Massenburg through the Tamagotchi recorder to capture the finest one-dimensional voltage wobbles, and (once we've recovered from our pre-shawm flinch) hear a swanee saxophonist making bubblegum instrumentalists sound like skill minnows. All in all, it's an intense emotional struggle with a fretless foghorn on a slightly elevated sofa.
