Various Vortices E7: Surf Rockin' Apocalypso! A Phantom Fingers Summer Music Spooktacular

In Episode 7 of The Various Vortices of Xylen Roberts Podcast, I present to you a spooooooooky summer themed music showcase. We will be hearing songs from conscious British rapper Rubb, experimental electronic producer Johnny Jitters (in the form of his projects Noots and Rainsleep) from Pittsburgh PA, my experimental folk/art rock project Phantom Fingers (as well as one Xylen Roberts track), and pirate folk metal rocker Pirates De Dios (aka Pirate Larry), who is out roaming the Seven Seas as we speak. How appropriate for a maritime themed project, eh? Of course this isn't your ordinary beach boogie: Over here on Razzleberry Island, the apocalypse has come early this year and the beaches and sunny tourist destinations are overflowing with cannibal cyclops, flying bat demons and other wretched beasts spewed up from the depths of hell; Pan the God of Panic doing a pan flute solo in his Dick Dale Tribute Band; zombie surfers and their zombie land lovers too stuck inside their I Phones and VR headsets to view the world around them, let alone anything resembling TRUTH. Annnnnnnnnnd so on and so forth. Yes indeed the Rapture is in full force at this year's Summer Spooktacular....and I don't mean popular early 00s dance rock darlings The Rapture lol. Although that would be cool too. Dance punk is do for a comeback. You know who else is due for a comeback? Jesus Christ, baby! Whoooooooooah! Zinger! I got a whole bucketful of these Apocalypse centered jokes, baby!

Anyway, that's what we got going on here at the VV Podcast this week. This will be the last podcast for a while, in fact. I am putting it on an indefiinite hiatus for re-tooling as I am trying to figure it how to bring it to a livestreaming audience over at D-Live, in which I will mix the pre-recorded skits/serials and music with LIVE interviews and discussions. But I am also taking a break to focus on BOTH completing a number of music albums AND developing 3 or 4 LIMITED RUN (5-7 episodes) radio serials including Anti-SJW Action Squad!, The Red Dragon Pirate Happy Hour! (working title), and the return of Samsara Junkyard. I explain more about all of the above in the intro to the episode itself. Anyway, on with the show!
