Do you guys want to play a song real quick?
Sure.
Do you want me to jump into some more tracks?
Sure.
I would...
You were talking about a song that you really wanted to do, and I forgot what...
It was called Laurent.
Laurent, right.
And who's Laurent?
Laurent is a...
Because you were abducted by aliens.
Yeah, well, Laurent is a Corinthian that has recently contacted me.
I met him first in Redlands, California, and then I saw him again.
He lives in Chino, California, and he's been contacting...
He contacted me and told me that sex was wrong, and to keep my life pure, blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
He told me he didn't want me to look at porn.
He felt it was wrong, so I wrote a song about it, and here it goes.
All right, cool.
Here.
David Lieberhard and Adam Papigan.
All right.
All right.
All right.
All right.
All right.
Hey, man.
Good morning, everyone.
My name is Pastor Dr. Martin Semper.
I'm here in the capacity as the chairman of the National Task Force Against Homosexuality in Uganda.
We are making legislation.
To make sure that sodomy and homosexuality never sees the light of legality in this land of the Pearl of Africa.
I've taken time to do a little research to know what homosexuals do in the privacy of their bedroom.
One of the things they do is called anal leaking, where a man's anus is leaked like this by the other person.
Like ice cream.
Like ice cream.
And then what happens?
Even poopoo comes out.
The other one poopoo is out.
And then they eat the poopoo.
The other one they do is they have a sex practice called fisting, where they insert their hand into the other man's hand.
And it goes into the anus all the way.
And it is so painful.
They have to take drugs.
But they enjoy it.
Now, if we have any children, please step out.
This is a parental guidance moment.
That child can be moved out.
No, that's fine.
So I've done research.
This is what they do.
Number one, you can see a man here having sucked the other person's rectum and the other person is poopooing.
And this one is eating the poopoo all over the place.
Tell me, when you have a law against homosexuality, do you say except eating poopoo?
I mean, look at this guy sincerely.
Bishop.
Ah, staggiful lies.
Zaha.
Huh?
Hajat.
We do not want this sickness.
This is sick and it's therefore deviant.
We do not want it.
Now they start off by touching each other's genitals and smelling each other.
Then this one smears the poopoo all over the other person's face.
As if that is not enough, he puts the hand deeper.
As Africans, we want to ask Barack Obama to explain to us.
Is this what he wants?
Is this what he wants to bring to Africa as a human right to eat the poopoo of our children?
We'll do it live.
Okay.
Broadcasting from downtown Los Angeles.
We'll do it live.
Fuck it.
It's the More Music Radio Pod.
Do it live.
I'll write it and we'll do it live.
On skidrow.la.
Fucking hell.
Fucking thing sucks.
Five, four, three.
Hey everybody, it's the More Music Radio Pod.
It is Thursday, June 30th.
It's the end of the month.
And we're here having another party at Skid Row Studios.
We're doing it.
We're doing it.
Oh yeah.
And we're eating the poopoo.
Don't be eating the poopoo.
Not me.
You eat the poopoo.
You eat the poopoo.

You guys, I also found something funny with this guy.
They did a remix of, they did like an auto-tune remix.
Oh, man.
And it sounds pretty funny.
Here it goes.
One of the things they do is called anal licking.
A man's an ass is he licked.
Like ice cream, like ice cream.
A man's an ass is he licked.
Like ice cream, like ice cream.
A man's an ass is he licked.
Like ice cream, like ice cream.
Like ice cream.
A man's an ass is he licked.
That's pretty fun, man.
I like when they do stuff like that.
And real quick, here's another one.
And these are really fun.
Yeah, it's like party music.
It's perfect for tonight.
Yeah.
What else?
You got to give it like a little...
Yeah, the build-up.
I can feel it.
Yeah.
Your leg is just tapping right now.
Yeah.
It just makes your hips want to go like back and forth.
It's my favorite part.
Here comes my favorite part.
It makes your stomach...
A man's anus.
Yeah, man.
I've been fucking having this song going through my head all day today.
You do not want it.
Yeah.
So tonight we're going to have Cool School and Wiz Wars.
Do some live stuff.
We're going to talk to them in a little bit.
And...
Go, go, go.
God, this is so good.
I don't know.
Why don't we just jump to a couple songs, man?
What do you think?
Eat that poo-poo.
All right, let's do it.
Eat that poo-poo.
Don't take this offensively.
The More Music Radio Pod.
Oh.
Jim Johnman, what are you doing?
Skinroad.
LA.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
I'm always just writing a song.
If it's a crappy song, I always force myself to finish it so that I know I at least got something done.
I'm always really productive.
So since it's just a bit, are you limited to a number of tracks that you can put on?
Yeah, so like layers of sound, you only have four channels.
The Game Boy is only capable of two pulse wave channels and then a really complex wave channel where you can design your own wavelength and import samples if you wanted to.
And then a noise channel that sounds like...
Stuff like that.
And so those are the only four channels or tracks that you can use.
But other than that, you can sync up multiple Game Boys if you want.
That's cheating.
I guess that's cheating, but hey, you can if you want, and it's cool, I don't mind.
And you perform these songs live, right?
You're going to perform some songs tonight, right?
Yeah, what you'll do is you'll arrange them into a whole song and you can just press play or you can set them up as different loops.
And then just say, I want this loop to go on right now and this one to go on right now and do a whole live thing.
Basically using Ableton Live or some other expensive software.
It's just the same thing.
Or you can press play and punch people in the face.
Yeah, that's usually what I do.
I just press play and then I jump around in the crowd.
Take off your clothes.
Yeah.
And steal their Game Boys.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's actually the thing that people show up to my shows for sometimes because I'd get naked at a lot of shows.
So then people would start showing up just for that.
So I'm like, you never mind.
Screw you guys.
That's punk rock.
I'm not getting naked anymore.
So you just stand there naked with your Game Boy?
No, I wouldn't stand there.
Usually it would be on the floor.
He'd usually jump around while completely naked.
Were you nude because it was hot where you were playing?
Well, actually, basically, yeah.
I mean, come on.
Hell yeah.
It's super hot.
But also because the first time I did it, I was like, I want to be known as the Iggy Pop of electronic music.
You know?
That makes sense to me.
Yeah.
Who are some of your guys' influences that you're into?
Oh, shit.
Like of any genre?
Yeah, just like what got you into music or to do chip thrash or whatever.
What got me into electronic music was my mom playing Kraftwerk when I was a kid.
Oh, cool, man.
What inspires me to make the faster stuff, I listen to a lot of punk rock, a lot of black metal.
I've been listening to a lot of Lightning Bolt lately.
Yeah.
That's good stuff.
That's good stuff.
Loading records.
It's really fast, low production value, just high energy music.
Yeah, because what comes to mind to me when I think of thrash is I grew up with metal like Slayer and shit like that.
Yeah, I like stuff like that too, but there is a need to separate the terms that thrash metal and thrash in this instance do not mean the same thing.
Yeah.
Thrash is more of a, like you said, what are the different?
It's a verb.
It's not an adjective.
It's not an adjective.
It's a verb.
It's too thrash.
Yeah, yeah.
It's anything in reality.
I know Ryan Avery from Father's Day called Father's Day a thrash band a while back in 2008.
It was because it was just like, they're just like, I hate my wife.
I think the best way to describe their music is dad stuff.
No, but that's the activity.
They're just rocking around and thrashing about.
That's the way I see it.
Even back to Lightning Bolt, that band sounds like it's something you can't reproduce live, but they do do that.
Yeah.
It's like, how does that relate to doing that?
It's programmed in, but it has that feel to it, right?
I heard a little bit of it.
Yeah, it's the actual energy.
The actual activity of playing it on huge speakers and getting everyone pumped.
I love that.
I love it when I play at libraries and a bunch of seven-year-old girls are rocking out.
That's hilarious.
That happened to me once.
We got to do it at one of these dates.
I've played so many libraries now.
All these libraries were hitting me up.
I'm like, oh, cool.
I ventured out with my freaking guitar amp all the way to Encino Tarzana.
There was nothing but seven-year-old girls.
This is so cool.
It was hilarious.
It's relatively low-fi, so you can get away with that.
Yeah, I can go anywhere I want.
There's no real denying that there isn't very much, well, depending on your setup, but for either of us, there isn't very much actual live performance that goes into what we do.
It's more about listening to the music and just being in the crowd.
If you're just standing there playing the Game Boy, just standing there looking at the people, and everyone's just standing there, it's going to be a fucking boring show.
You got to have the lights down and just everyone freaking out.
Yeah, that's what it is to me, is the actual activity of the live show.
Sometimes I'll just put my Game Boy down and just fuck around with a chaos pad or something.
What kind of shows do you play?
What other bands do you play with?
There's a big community, right, of people who do APT?
There's a small community.
Yeah.
I think it's like a big community in LA.
Yeah, and the rest of the country, like New York, it's pretty giant.
They have a festival every year that has like a thousand people come out.
But out here, we just started doing a monthly show called Obsolete in downtown LA, which actually, we can plug that because the next one is in two days.
It's the first Saturday of every month.
Where is that at?
At this place called Pixel Frequency.
You can go to obsolete.fm to find out more information.
It has the information.
It's like 931 Pico or something like that.
Yeah, it's a warehouse in downtown LA.
That's obsolete.fm.
So who are you guys playing with over there?
There's Wet Mango and Basick are like the main people who have done like chiptune for a while, like in this style for quite a while, like in the break core scene, stuff like that.
And then there was, and like the main LA people, like obviously was like 8-Bit Weapon, who was like, they started the Microwave, which is like the first chiptune show for a while.
Right.
Tony, you know 8-Bit Weapon.
Yeah, Seth was supposed to come in tonight, but he's out of town.
So we're going to have to have him come in at a later date.
But yeah, what up, Seth?
Hi, Seth.
8-Bit Weapon.
Yo, yo, yo.
Naughty boy.
And hi, Michelle.
So, hey man, why don't we take another break and then when we come back, we'll have you guys do a couple songs.
What do you think?
Yeah, sure.
All right, cool, man.
So we have Cool Skull and Wiz Wars in studio on the More Music Radio Pod.
We'll be back.
Don't need the producer.
No, no, wait a minute.
No, no, wait a minute.
You got the right bitch.
How?
You got the right bitch.
How now?
How the fuck up?
How?
You got the right bitch.

So how do you guys do it?
You guys, just one of you goes, and then as soon as that song's done, the other one jumps in?
Yeah, and then sometimes we'll play some weird samples while the other one's going on.
Because there's kids that say, like, bitch, bitch, titties, titties.
So we'll play them while the other one's going.
Are you guys going to thrash around while you're playing in the studio right now?
No, I'm going to sit down.
I'll probably be shaking my head.
The one will be like the digital little John.
Everyone who's listening should just imagine that we're going insane in the studio.
Just like this place is on fire.
I think you guys are going to thrash around, man.
Are you going to thrash around, Tony?
I'm going to do a fish.
It's hard for me to not thrash them.
Hey, Tony.
Are you going to thrash around?
Yes.
All right, cool, man.
So who's going to go up first?
Wiz Wars is going to go up first.
All right.

Got, I never lose a bath, cause my fishing rocks dance hot.
Ice climbing, grabbing carrots, perfect timing, no demerit.
Bitch, I'm a natural, actual, factual.
I see you at the arcade, you getting played.
Name the game, the time, the place, I throw your ass into a maze.
Bitch, you came in boasting, now you're crawling away.
You felt the wrath of the frosty flute, a.k.a.
I just cashed in a 10 and got a roll of quarters.
Won a high score on this game, just place your order.
See my initials on the screen, they be S-P-D.
You can beat that game, but you can't beat me.
Cause I'm an old school fool, and you know I'm cool.
Because I skied all day in a backyard pool.
I did a burn and a hand plant and got some air and did a big ol' grab while they sat and stared.
I can be Shadowgate in 22 minutes without ever kicking the bucket once.
I can kick anybody's butt in MK3 and that goes for all you chumps.
I can drink a whole bottle of whiskey and straight up conquer Ninja Gaiden 2.
I'm the master of 2D fighting games and you a Tetris playing fool.
I can kill Lygar in 10 to 12 hits cause I know how to build my tone.
Don't need no passports for Castlevania 2 cause I'm straight falling into the zone.
Get all the items I need while I'm smoking some weed cause that's all second nature to me.
Just like driving a car, I hit the dragon with a star, grab the talisman, follow my lead.
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah, we clapped at that ol' shit, bitch.
Call in, bitch!
1-800-893-9562 Ichi hapyaku yakuza kugoroni!
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.
What's up?
We're back.
How is this my- 2?
2?
2?
2?
Yeah.
Yeah.
We're back and welcome back to the music radio pod.
I was just about to comment how good, like, Juan's wardrobe was.
Yeah.
But then he took it off.
And then he fucking got naked.
They said they were- I mean, he's looking good now.
Now he's going to smear the poo poo.
Watch him as he smears the poo poo all over his face with the poo poo.
They said they weren't gonna take off their clothes or thrash around, but both happened, so I don't know.
I actually had a question about that.
I've never seen you guys live.
Really?
No.
No, of course not.
Of course not.
I don't know, because I don't go out much, basically.
See, we're really- we're getting kind of old, you know?
My thing is this.
Like, earlier in the evening, we talked about, like, the idea of being a frontman or doing, like, putting on a performance.
What the hell do you know about putting on a performance, Pat?
I don't know, but even that idea, like, I thought it was, like, what you guys were doing, even, like, just- I don't know.
It's like, it was weird.
It's like, why- What do you mean?
It was like, watching them in their living room makes total sense to me, like, where the idea of what type of music they're playing is sedentary music.
Mm-hmm.
It's even the idea that you guys are sitting in chairs and you're still fucking dancing and you're just, like, wanting- I just- I thought it was really cool.
I don't know.
Well, they don't play shows, like, in chairs.
I mean, it's just because they're over here in the studio.
No, no, no, no, but I think that would be really awesome.
No offense to any handicapped chickens.
No, no, no, okay, well, basically, I see performing the music like the Game Boy's the orchestra and I'm the orchestra, like, conductor here.
Yeah, but to me it worked really- I don't know.
I feel like- It really- It really- It really- It really- That's the best fucking analogy ever.
He's a real Gustavo.
That is the greatest.
I just feel like I was looking into, like, earlier today when I got here, there was some lady- Oh, yeah, guys.
You know what?
There's a lady.
I don't mean to interrupt, but we forgot, we got a call on the line.
Caller, you're on the air.
There's a lady.
Oh, hi, what's up?
Hey, what's happening?
Who's this?
This is Arnie in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
Oh, cool.
What's up?
Oh, shit.
We just wanted to talk to you.
What's up, EGR?
Wow.
That's EGR, man.
Hey, man, that's me.
Man, you are fucking- Dude, you're the man.
Arnie Holder, this is the boy.
This is your homeboy?
What's going on, brother?
Hi.
Yo, man.
Hey, what's going on, man?
Hey, I was just listening to the podcast that Wiz Wars said was freaking awesome.
Thank you.
I agree.
Yeah, Wiz Wars is good.
That was all new stuff?
That's all new stuff.
You have that to look forward to coming out on Cool Skull's label, Data Mosh Pit, within the next couple of months.
I actually got to record that EP, bro.
Oh, yeah.
I got to record that EP probably this weekend.
Hell yeah.
Yeah, I played some of my old songs and he was playing all this crazy, unreleased, hardcore shit.
Oh, man.
Hell yeah.
You guys got cool fans.
It's like, what, like 2 AM over there?
Yeah, what time is it over there, man?
Let's see.
Right now, it's probably like 1.30 in the morning, I guess.
You've been drinking some White Lightning over there in Kentucky?
Did you just get home?
No, unfortunately, it's work tomorrow.
Oh, okay.
You're a racist.
Shit.
You're going to have a bad day at work tomorrow, but- I'm just kidding.
This is a chip thrash.
That's awesome.
Hey, man, what's the chip thrash scene out there in Kentucky, man?
It's thin, to say the least.
But it's everywhere, right?
Well, yeah, it's thin everywhere, right?
How's that compilation coming along, man, for your label?
Waiting on the cover art, and I actually got a couple of little tidbits that McFaradrail's supposed to be doing.
Nice.
Oh, yeah.
Hopefully it will be together.
McFire Drill?
His label is Data Thrash, right?
Yeah, McFire Drill is an artist in Seattle, Washington.
Yeah, Data Thrash is a new label that EGR is working on, and it's, like, freaking awesome.
They have some cool stuff coming out.
He's putting together this awesome compilation, and I think Shitbird has a track on there, right?
I don't know.
Oh, Shitbird?
No, Shitbird is so legit.
You all have fancy phones.
You should have your phone out, and you should be looking up on Google right now.
All these names.
Okay, okay.
My phone is only 3G.
My phone's only 3G, man.
I have an 8-bit phone.
We're always behind, man.
I'm pretty sure EGR will agree with me on this, but there are, like, a few, like, serious hardcore pioneers in the whole, like, hardcore breakcore Game Boy stuff, and, like, the two main ones in my head are DJ Scotch Egg and Shitbird, and I freaking love Shitbird.
Shitbird is, like, I don't know.
Where's Shitbird out of this?
Yeah, I would agree on that.
As far as any scene goes, like, what are, like, the originators of anything?
These are kind of, like, are these the originators?
The originators of chip music are traced back to the 1980s in Europe, making music with Commodore 64s.
Can you expand on that a bit?
I don't know.
Is that boring?
I don't know much about the history.
Maybe EGR can help us out.
I don't know.
You're asking about a genre of music that's existed for almost 30 years now, so, I mean, it's...
I mean, I guess...
About the...
Uh-huh.
Are you talking about origin of chip music or...
Yeah.
Sit down, Pat.
Sorry.
Well, I don't know.
I'm just learning.
That's like a college course all in itself.
It's like...
I think what everyone brings up, though, is the main thing is the movie...
What is it?
Reformat the Planet.
Reformat the Planet about the New York scene with Null Sleep and Bit Shifter.
Like, they did shows at the tank, and that was, like, the serious thing.
So, in the East Coast, like, that's when the chip scene was, like, really blowing up.
Uh, so, like, now they have, like, the festival, and, like, they're all seriously hardcore and stuff.
And they sell out venues, and they get bitches and drugs.
And they're on Astral Works.
What the fuck?
So, it's like playing in a band, right?
Yeah, I don't know.
Like, a popular one, anyway.
I wouldn't know how that goes.
Come on.
You're in the Mormons, man.
Hey, so, EGR is it?
Yeah.
Hey, so, you playing any shows out there, man?
You got anything to promote?
Uh, not really.
I'm...
The main thing I'm working on, is trying to keep the blog and, uh, pseudo-label...
Where can we find the blog at? ...trying to get the word out around here.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Say what?
Where can we find the blog at?
It is at, uh, datathrash.tumblr.com.
It's also on Facebook.
You heard it here.
Datathrash.tumblr.com.
Cool.
You just bought airtime.
We'll be sending you a bill for 25 bucks.
You just paid for tonight's pizza.
And hookers.
Thanks for calling in.
Well, hey, thanks for calling, man.
That was good talking to you.
I can't wait for that, uh, thing to...
for that compilation to come out.
It's gonna be really great.
Like, he also...
He has, like, some tracks from...
Like, can you name off some of the artists that are on the track?
On the compilation?
Uh, yeah, let's see.
We got, uh, Kraitz, which, uh...
Let's see.
Where is he from?
Is he from, uh, Ukraine or Russia?
Yeah, he's from, like, some European...
I would add him to my...
That's cool, man.
I'm from the Ukraine.
And he just released something on Kitten Rock.
It's so cool.
You should check it out.
What's Kitten Rock?
Oh, yeah.
I would add him to the top three of, uh, Scotch Egg and Shitbird.
Oh, yeah.
Kraitz is...
Okay.
And then, uh...
Keep going.
Streets of Rage.
Who else is on there?
Streets of Rage?
Cool Skull's on there.
Who's that?
Streets of Rage is on there?
I like the video game.
I'm just listening to you guys, man.
It's fucking...
It's fucking fascinating, man.
There's, like, this whole scene that's going on.
There's literally hundreds upon hundreds of artists worldwide that do this shit.
I mean, like I said, there's the Blip Festival in New York every year.
It's a three-night festival, and each night, the attendance tops a thousand people.
Have you ever been to that?
No, I don't travel.
No?
Why not?
Are you afraid of flying?
They flew my sister off for that.
Yeah, me too, man.
No, no, they flew my sister off for that.
But just take a Xanax, man.
Oh, yeah, by the way, didn't...
Your sister had a track played, uh...
Oh, yeah.
Wet Mango just had a...
They just played a track for her.
That was one of the songs that we played on the radio show right here before we came back.
That was, like, the vocal version of Trollin'.
Yeah, this...
No, no, no.
Wait.
Oh, yeah, fucking Wet Mango.
Hey, uh, I gotta let you...
I gotta let you guys go, but, uh...
Hey, man, get some sleep.
I'm kicking ass.
Yeah, man.
Thanks very much for calling in.
Thanks for calling in.
More music radio about it, man.
Yeah, get those kids kicked.
Later on, Arnie.
Stay at the school, man.
Don't want you to hang up on people.
Later, man.
Thanks, man.
Yeah, so you guys know, um, you know, Cool Skull's in a chiptune dynasty, you know?
He's got...
I have damn nipples. ...Wet Mango, his sister, and your little brother's doing some...
Yeah, my little brother, Sergeant X, he has, like, a half-shaved head, and a game of color.
So is Christina, like, officially your sister now?
No, it's...
Never mind.
I thought it was some...
That was a good Kentucky thing.
No, no, okay.
Yeah, there's some Kentucky things.
No, because she's not really my sister.
I just always...
Did I just...
Did I just ruin your night?
You just ruined it.
Come on.
What?
I just tell everyone she's my sister.
Marsha Greg Brady kind of thing?
Because, like, she'll take me to shows, and then I'm like, oh, hey.
Christina is everyone's sister, because she's just the nicest person.
She's, like, the most, like, sweet and, like, caring person.
But she'll fuck you up if you call her your sister.
I had a question.
Don't fuck with what mango?
Are you guys familiar with GarageBand?
Oh, yeah.
My first album was on GarageBand.
Well, that's all I know how to use, and I was trying to make a song today, and I ended up talking to myself for four hours.
Oh, yeah, Patrick.
I have a story here.
Well, I'm trying to promote your band.
Patrick, you always talk too much, goddammit.
Hold on.
He's the manager.
Come on.
Patrick, talk.
Let Patrick speak.
Can you let one of us other people talk?
Patrick, Jesus Christ.
Let Patrick speak.
Come on.
Hey, Patrick, you didn't get the MP3s together for the show.
Okay?
I did.
All right?
I got all the MP3s.
I downloaded Wiz Wars and Cool Skull.
I went on there, and I got it.
I understand.
It's totally fine.
So anyway, Patrick, about GarageBand.
So it's hard to use, especially when you're tired.
You don't know how to play any kind of music.
But I did that once.
And you're an alcoholic.
That too.
Isn't GarageBand geared towards people who've never produced music ever?
I was trying to make a song, and then it didn't come out.
I ended up talking to myself for about four hours to the point where...
So far, it just sounds like a normal day.
Yeah.
Come on, guys.
Let him speak.
Jesus.
Come on.
I had a story.
My flow has been broken.
Aw.
Sorry, man.
Just keep going.
Just keep pumping.
Just push right through it.
Yeah, man.
Just like your song, man.
You got to keep just pushing right through it.
It's going to take longer if you guys keep talking.
Bored your head, man.
It's like when you're constipated.
So anyway, my thought was this.
I took a shower eventually.
You guys do that?
Sometimes.
You guys like showers?
Yeah.
Showers are good, man.
I did one of those, and I was still talking to myself while I was showering.
And I started thinking, this is what's going on in my head all the time.
And don't you guys...
Do you guys ever...
My question was this.
Do you guys ever talk to yourselves?
Yeah.
Yeah.
So what do you guys talk to yourselves about?
Do you have like weird...
Do you yell at yourself?
Okay.
Okay.
When I...
Me as the cool skull...
I'm constantly yelling at myself.
This is what I'm always, always thinking about.
When you answer that question, make sure you understand the line of the question that it began with GarageBand.
No, I know.
But it's a true story, but I figure everybody does that, right?
Yeah.
This is what I always talk to myself about, quite literally.
I'm either thinking of what my next song is going to be.
I'm thinking of whether or not I have to show up to work, or I'm thinking about how awesome Jack White is.
Or where the bitch is at.
Do you think that's a tall issue in your head?
Do you verbalize it occasionally?
Oh, yes.
Like, I'll be talking to myself, like, out in the open.
I'm like, man, Jack White's awesome.
Like, I don't know.
I love the White Stripes.
So I'm like always thinking about that.
At like two in the morning, can you go back to your apartment?
And GarageBand does exist.
Like, cover some White Stripes songs real loud?
July 14th is Bastille Day, the day that they had like actually like come together as a band.
So I want to release something by July 14th as all White Stripes covers.
It's going to be like remixes.
We should record that tonight.
It's going to be sick.
They don't exist anymore, so you could just be the White Stripes.
No, I know.
I know.
I love the White Stripes.
I want to do like a whole tour as like a White Stripes 8-bit cover.
I don't get them.
You call it the Brown Stripes.
Honestly, I don't get the White Stripes.
What I like about the White Stripes is that it was just such a simple idea.
It's so primitive.
Those kids and their music today just don't understand it.
It's like primitive and lo-fi and like pop music, but like anti-pop.
No.
It's not anti-pop.
It's like anything.
They're just doing what they do.
I'm sorry.
I have to disagree with you.
So anyway, do you guys have pets?
Pets?
Any animals?
Oh, my family, my parents have a dog named Eric Thorn, and he's so cool.
Well, do you ever like make your pets talk or you have that in your head and you're talking to your cats and they're talking back to you and you're making them talk?
Do you do that?
What's your cat's name again?
I always go to him and I say, oh, I love you, Eric.
No, but like a real conversation like, hey, what's wrong with you?
I'm just really.
I'm really curious when this is going to go back to GarageBand.
The GarageBand thing.
Meow.
Exactly.
Patrick's my favorite.
He's high-fiving.
Hey, so you think you guys are in the mood to play like another quick couple songs or something?
Or are you guys just like done with that?
Yeah.
Yeah, whatever.
Cool Skull can start this.
Yeah, sure.
All right, cool.
Wait, wait.
Yeah.
Yeah, man.
Meow.
I hear.
You're going to hear.
He's turning on the Game Boy.
Hey, Juan, what's this song called?
I don't know.
It's called.
I don't know.
Shut up.
Can I name it?
No.
Please.
Now he's on the spot, though.
Now he's getting like one side, one side, two side, three side.
You know what?
I was tuning the KXLU driving home from work a couple weeks ago.
And Cool Skull is supposed to play KXLU and his fucking batteries ran out.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
You were telling me about that, man.
They're like, come on, dude.
Your fucking batteries.
Like, you should bring some batteries and shit.
He's like, okay.
Can I get a microphone on this one?
That was pretty funny.
Hello.
All right.
Seems like we got batteries.
Everything's cool.
So I was wondering if these are going to be cool or whatever, but I'm pretty sure this is just going to go.
All right.
Cool.
This song has some vocals.
It's about a homeless guy that was outside this donut shop that out of my by my apartment.
He just sits there.
And one day, like, he just looks really pathetic.
Right.
But one day he had shades and he just had this look like on his face, like, like, just because he had his shades crossing his arms, man.
And you just looked at him.
You're like this man.
He's like, man, rules this city.
You can tell.
But then the next day he didn't have the shades and he was just looked like some other pathetic homeless dude.
But like this song is about how awesome he looked with shades.
It's called New Pair of Shades.
Wait, wait.
Okay.
Can I have some headphones?
I got to get myself prepared for this.
Hello.
Cool School and Studios.
Kid Road.
Oh, wait, hold on.
I got it.
Okay.
I'm going to get this.
I'm going to get this.
I'm going to get this.
I'm going to get this.
I'm going to get this.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Get it, Ralph!
Okay, well, hold on, I have one more song, and it's really short, and I'm going to do this one with vocals, too.
Okay, so, basically, the story behind this one is, when I was in middle school, my parents didn't like us to go to school, so they just, like, you're not going to school!
So we went to this weird, like, educational program on Hollywood Boulevard.
It was, like, we later found out it was, like, a Scientologist training camp.
And they made us teach, they made us learn the alphabet backwards, and this is an example of how, like, awesome what I learned was.
C-Y-S-M-E-T-S-E-Q-B-O-N-M-O-K-G-I-S-E-F-E-D-C-B-I!
Thank you.
Alright, man.
Cool school, man.
That's fucking pretty cool, man.
You guys are really fucking good at that shit, man.
Me and Tony were talking, we were like, man, these guys are really fucking good at this shit.
You guys are like the Russia fucking chip team.
They, like, kicked me right in the fucking balls with that.
Tony was showing me some of the stuff that he was doing, and he's all, look, I could do this thing, and it's all doo doo doo doo doo.
Yeah. ... ... ...!
Alright.
I'm actually 19.
For real?
All my friends are under the age of 21.
I feel pathetic.
You feel like the old guy?
Yeah, I am the old guy.
Just the way you're going to feel older.
When he moves out here, he's like 28.
Oh, I like Shitbird now.
No, no, no.
I'm sorry.
I like Shitbird now just because of his name, man.
Shitbird, dude.
Shitbird writes some great music.
No, Shitbird's the man.
He only has one album out in the last year.
But, like, dude, he comes...
Imagine, like, a phoenix living at the top of Mount Fuji that only comes down once every five years to lay a golden egg.
That is Shitbird.
And you don't do any drugs or drink or anything like that?
No, I know I don't, actually.
Wow.
You know what?
I did Frank Zappa, so, you know.
Yes, and was the egg made out of wax?
That's true.
No, no, no.
It's made out of...
Shit.
No, it's made of Nintendium.
Yeah.
Nice.
Anyway.
I want to hear Shitbird.
We're going to do a cover of Freebird.
Hey, you should promote that split you did with Shitbird.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
On Betamod Records, me and Shitbird did a split called Cool Shit.
And it's on Betamod.com.
B-E-T-A-M-O-D.com.
And it's only, like, it's, like, ten songs, but they're all, like, a minute long, like, exactly or under.
It's the most fucking hardcore chip music album I've ever heard.
It's, like, ten minutes of, like, bricks in your face.
It's the epitome of chip thrash.
That record...
I don't know.
Bricks on bricks.
Chip thrash.
Yeah, so, no, no, but literally, Barry, who is Shitbird, is, like, one of my best friends.
Like, I was just recently in a relationship with a girl that's, like, it ended recently.
You like girls?
But I'm leaving right now.
But literally, even when I was, like, with her, I talked to Shitbird more than I talked to her.
Like, I talked to him for, like, three hours.
This is Michael O'Leary.
To be fair, Barry is more attractive than your girlfriend.
Oh!
Burned.
But, I don't know.
I love Barry.
He's the man.
You don't have any tattoos.
You like girls?
What's going on here?
Oh, man.
But I have this mad psoriasis.
Come on, man.
We're fucking 10 and 15 fucking years fucking older than any of these people.
Speaking of older...
What a creep.
And how...
Oh, my God.
Before the days through, we got, like...
Sometimes, you know, you guys just don't know.
Sometimes, like, it just gets...
Sometimes, it gets really creepy, Patrick.
Dude, imagine if we were Andy today.
Well, like...
Oh, yeah.
That reminds me.
He's turning 53 today.
That reminds me.
Oh, yeah.
That's right.
Yeah, yeah.
It's Andy's birthday today, man.
Happy birthday, Andy.
Andy Bolas of 8-Bit.
Andy Log from 8-Bit is now...
Really?
53 years old today.
Yep.
Happy birthday, man.
He was actually 35.
Oh!
Oh, I got it backwards.
But, um...
He's dyslexic, man.
He doesn't look a day over 52.
Do you guys want to join me in singing him happy birthday?
What do you think?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Happy birthday.
Some bloops over it, huh?
Can we do the Denny's version?
Can we have happy birthday tracked down for a moment?
Instead of the traditional happy birthday, let's do the Denny's version where it's all happy, happy birthday, happy birthday, happy birthday, happy...
I don't know.
No, let's do the traditional one.
No, this...
Let's do the traditional one.
You're right.
You're right.
You're right.
Let's not do either.
Let's have background music for it.
Sounds and shit.
That's what we need.
Some background music.
Okay, ready?
Not yet, boy.
Not yet, boy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday, dear Andy.
No poo-poo.
No.
Eat the poo-poo.
Happy birthday to you.
Eat the poo-poo.
Eat the poo-poo.
Eat the poo-poo like the ice cream.
Don't forget to eat the poo-poo on your birthday.
Maybe it's Andy.
Maybe we have a radio show.
All right, everybody.
We have a caller coming through.
Hello?
Yeah.
Hello?
Caller, you're on the air.
What's up?
I'm on the air?
Yeah, you're on the air now, man.
Who does B?
No, you're not.
Is Wiz Wars and Cool Skull there?
Yeah, yeah.
Hold on.
Let me get him.
Hold on.
Hey, guys.
Oh, hold on.
Hold on.
Let me put my pants back on.
Hey, guys.
You guys got a call, man.
Gross.
Hi.
Yo, what's up, man?
Tell him that Milky and Shanti are on the air.
Oh!
Oh!
Yeah!
What's up, boy?
Woo!
Yeah!
What's up?
Yeah!
Just ink in the house.
Oh, shit.
What are you guys talking about?
What's going on, brother?
What's up, dawg?
What are you talking about?
Yo, so, like, I just want to let y'all know, man.
Oh, man.
So, like, last week, dawg, we was rolling with Milky, right?
Oh, what's up, man?
Dude, that full shot the hell out of Shanti.
Oh, man.
I don't even know what the hell.
What the hell happened, dawg?
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
Boom.
Shanti shot Milky, and it was, like, crazy.
Are these friends of yours that were murdered?
Who do you guys think?
Yeah, dawg.
Hey, you tell the story, dawg.
You're so dope.
Don't talk shit about Milky, fool.
Oh, hey, fool.
I'll fucking rise up right now.
I'll rock P.
Milky, dawg.
Represent.
No, is he their friend of yours?
Who are these people?
I don't know, but this is fun, man.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Maybe if we let this guy tell his story, he'll tell us.
Hey, what's going on, caller?
What do you got to say, man?
Nothing.
I was just curious what, uh, I've heard that WizWars is releasing a new album pretty soon, but I was curious what Cool Skull is doing as far as musical releases.
Oh, man.
All right, you guys want to field that one?
Yeah.
That sounds nothing like a bad story about shooting fools, but okay.
This is the funniest question, only because this is the only person in the whole world that knows the answer to this, and he's only asking it because he knows I'm not talking about it.
Yeah, he's totally prodding.
He's totally prodding, yeah.
Yeah, okay, okay.
No, no, but seriously.
I'll just do that.
Okay, so this is, uh, this is my friend Lars, and he's like my best friend of all time, quite literally the greatest comic book artist and animator.
I thought Shipbird was your best friend.
Well, hold on, hold on.
One second.
It should also be noted that Lars is doing the artwork for my next album.
Yeah, and for Shipbird's new album.
And it looks fucking fantastic.
And for Shipbird's new album.
Shit.
And for, like, and so WizWars' new album and Shipbird's new album, this is the man.
Lars is the official artist of Chip Thrash.
Oh, yeah.
This is the official Chip Thrash artist.
You can find his art at brainjuiceinc.com.
Inc as in I-N-K.
Yeah, yeah.
Thank you.
To be honest, I just called in because I wanted to plug, you know, that way hopefully all the monies and cocaine and hookers will come rolling in.
Oh, yeah.
We gonna send them to your house right now.
Like, wait for five minutes, dog.
They be there.
Hey, man, tomorrow go down to the post office, man.
Mail you a hooker, man.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, boy.
Besides terrible stuff.
Sorry.
What?
Well, I was just wondering.
Let the caller talk.
I was wondering about that, the artwork.
Is it, how do you, is it, is it digital or how does that work with the whole thing?
So it's like.
Oh, you mean like what medium am I?
This is the website you look at.
Hey, let him talk, man.
Sorry.
Oh, I don't understand.
I'm using like a shitty phone.
I just do all my stuff off Photoshop.
So like nothing revolutionary there, but it's like kind of a weird mixture of like, I don't know.
It's like weird.
It's like weird 90s cartoons mixed with like your worst nightmares kind of thing.
Sounds good.
Yeah, but not, but not in a cheesy way.
Like some people might think like.
No, like, you know, this guy's going to be making thousands of dollars in a fucking art gallery where we're all homeless in like 10 years.
No, yeah.
No, no.
Seriously.
This is the man.
Like.
So where can we find you, Lars?
Yeah.
Oh, uh, brainjuiceinc.com with I-N-K.
Although Juan was a nice enough dude to plug that already.
Yeah.
Wow.
Another 25 bucks.
That's 50 bucks.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Basically, what had happened was me and my friend Lars were going to this crazy weird arts high school that met in an art center.
Then we got kicked out and we met in this Christian elementary school.
And it was kind of a weird situation.
You got kicked out of an elementary school and went to another elementary school?
No, the school got kicked out of art center.
Oh, okay.
So what had happened was we were hanging out one day and we were walking to the park.
And then he was like, oh, yeah, I'm an artist too.
And I'm like, oh, that's cool.
And then he showed me his art.
And my brain exploded.
He's like, yeah, this is like the, I don't know.
I have better stuff than this right now, but this is just what I have on my phone.
I'm like, holy crap, this is fantastic.
And quite literally from that moment on, my art style completely changed.
And I wanted to copy everything that he did.
Because there were a lot of comic book artists I respect.
But this guy took everything about the comic book artists I respect and made it awesome.
Like, er, than I'd ever thought it could be.
And I've just copied him from that point.
And he just moved on and made it so fantastic.
I'm looking at it right now and it's pretty amazing, actually.
Yeah, no, he's the man.
And also, you know, what I thought was kind of silly that you said that nothing revolutionary.
I'm sorry.
Photoshop is kind of a revolutionary tool.
And stop underselling yourself because your shit's amazing.
You don't have to apologize.
It's cool.
Hey, your stuff's on the internet.
Go away.
Yeah, you're right.
I guess as far as you're talking about Photoshop, like, it's not necessarily a...
Like, I guess it's not exactly the most normal thing.
But at the same time, Photoshop's been around for, like, a while.
So, I don't know.
Yeah, he does art and I want to look at it.
And I don't know what's going on.
I was just wondering how you guys are related.
And it makes sense, like, almost saying he does murals.
I don't know, we just met these guys.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
I don't know.
I'm just trying to make sense of the thing.
Oh, wait, like, okay.
Oh, you guys can look at my art.
To be honest, though, I still wanted an answer to my question as far as...
Oh, yeah.
Because once...
He says that, like...
Or, he's cool.
He says, like, he's like, oh, man, he already knows.
But in reality, I don't.
Because, like, every other day, he's doing something different.
So, like, I'm calling for the newest update.
It's been a week.
So, for all I know, he...
And, like, ended up with a three-legged, like, transvestite woman.
So, you guys are both transvestites.
And you met up in the school days.
Okay, so...
So, really, this isn't the best medium to explain.
But I just got a...
It looked really cool.
I just got a portfolio of his little...
Mini portfolio of your work here.
Yeah.
The shit is, like, way out of control.
Like, amazing, dude.
Man, I mean, not only are you good on the Game Boy, man, but fuck, man.
You get down with the fucking...
Oh, and also...
I don't really like telling some people.
You should get off the phone.
Okay, wait, wait, okay.
Okay, so, basically, to answer his question...
No, actually, thanks for calling.
I have a few projects that I'm working on.
We're not going to hang up.
Okay, so, right now, I have mostly finished.
But I'm still kind of working on a live album.
Because at my shows, there's, like, a lot of ridiculous banter.
And Lars was kind enough to actually give me...
This idea.
Because, like, all the recordings for my live shows...
Were super distorted and messed up.
And you couldn't hear anything.
So, he thought it was a good idea to take, like, the actual tracks...
Like, of the actual songs.
And then put them over the live versions.
And mess with them so that they sound right.
So that you can also hear the ridiculous banter of people yelling...
And telling me to take my clothes off.
And then...
Can this please be released over the video of you naked?
We can just...
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
No, no, wait.
Wait, wait, wait.
Okay, hold on.
Jeez, God.
Let me talk.
Okay, so, basically...
I was over talking to Manny at Beauty is Pain.
Which is where this stuff is recorded.
There's this thrift shop on Sunset and Highland.
It's fantastic.
And he actually has video of a few of my shows at Beauty is Pain.
And he wants to release them on DVD.
Do they sell painful underwear?
Actually, I've got some stuff on video.
He wants to release a DVD plus CD on his label called Records Ad Nauseam.
And it would be, like...
A co-release of Data Mosh Pit and Records Ad Nauseam.
And we're working on that.
That's going to be really cool.
Probably released on the internet.
And...
Or, like, sold on the internet.
And then also sold in his shop.
We're playing at Monster Party on July 22nd.
Oh, yeah.
And then on July 22nd, we're playing at Monster Party.
Which is next door.
Which is awesome.
Which is going to be the first Data Mosh Pit official event.
Data Mosh Pit's, like, our record label.
That actually...
Lars has a major part in...
You have data impersonators from Star Trek.
I feel like this is self-plugging douchebag.
But, uh, no, no, but...
Hey, hey.
No, but it's good, man.
Thank you for calling, man.
We really appreciate you calling up.
And, Lars, you piece of shit.
I've been calling you.
I wanted you to be here, you douchebag.
But you would never answer your phone.
And I'm like, you know what?
Fuck you.
Yeah, what the fuck, Lars?
He's from a foreign country.
Lars, we're hanging out tomorrow.
His neck popped out, man.
Well, you know what?
Radio isn't the best medium for the visual arts.
Typically, it is.
It sounds like I'm...
It sounds like I'm listening to a Merzbo album.
On this end of the phone, I'll be here as well.
It sounds just like a fucking mess.
Well, that's our show.
That's free radio for you.
Well, cool, man.
Well, we gotta run, man.
But thank you for calling, dude.
Well, I don't want to make Lars feel bad.
You have a good night, Lars Bush.
No.
Die.
In your sleep and for your soul.
I hope you can go put peanut butter in your anus.
We're gonna take another break.
We're gonna take another break right now.
And we'll be back on the More Music Radio pod with Cool Skull and Wiz Wars.
He's gotta pee.
The More Music Radio pod.
Hot Skit will come.
You'll learn.
You'll learn.
You'll learn.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Thank you guys for coming in and playing some Chip to Ashford.
This may be the worst show we've ever done, but by far the most fun.
Man, that was fucking cool, guys.
No, I'm just kidding.
You guys are really good at what you do, man, and you guys are so enthusiastic about it.
You guys have made it really fun.
I was just kidding.
You guys make us feel very old.
You'll feel weird about that.
This is what you have to look forward to, so take a quick look.
And close your eyes.
Yeah.
Hey, man, can we turn these lights down a little bit?
Five years for you, Kevin.
These bright lights are killing my boner.
He's rubbing his nipples.
I'm trying to get into this, and it's like, fuck.
Well, cool, man.
So where can we find you guys, man, on the Internet?

Datamoshpit.com backslash Wiz Wars.
W-I-Z-W-A-R-S all underscore.
Yeah, and...
You can also find more of my music at wizwars.bandcamp.com.
Yeah.
I think a lot of the stuff on there is donation-based.
You pay whatever you want, which can be $0.
So I've got, like, three EPs up there, I think.
So check it out.
Yeah, and on my website, there's, like, a player on SoundCloud, like, thing right there.
And then there's, like, links to download a bunch of my albums.
But also I have, like, a link to download, like, my entire discography.
Like, if you want, you can look through my whole discography.
You can even find, like, his source files for LSDJ on his...
Yeah, you can find, like, everything on there.
His directory is...
And a bunch of unreleased albums, too.
So, like, there's crazy stuff there.
So, yeah, he was telling me earlier that...
Well, he misspoke and started saying that he put it out one song a year.
And I'm like, yeah, that's cool.
And then he's like, no, actually, I put out one song a day.
I'm like, hey, I don't really like you that much.
Well, that's awesome, man.
Yeah, because I just go to work, and then I had, like, a schedule.
Like, every day, I'd write a song.
Like, on the bus, because I had, like, 20 minutes on the bus.
So, I'm like, okay, I can do this.
So, I'd force myself to write songs faster and faster.
And then, eventually, I'd start to write songs in, like, 15 minutes.
So, when is the new album coming out?
I'm not sure.
You're working on it right now?
I'm working on it.
There's some secret projects, too.
Okay, because basically...
Oh, yeah, I never really answered that question.
Okay, so that live album...
Hey, Lars.
Yeah, hey, Lars.
So, basically, that live album is still in the works.
It's coming out eventually.
But the thing is, I have a lot of unreleased albums that are probably going to be coming out constantly.
Like, I'm going to send them out to, like, Kitten Rock or maybe Chip and Damned, if they ever release an album for me.
But there's, like, a lot of stuff that I, like, have unreleased that's probably going to keep coming out, like, regularly.
Like, every two weeks or a month, you know?
Until I release my album album, which is, like, I'm working on this, like, hardcore, fully mastered with vocals album that's going to have, like, gold packaging.
Like, not actual gold, but, you know, I'm going to make it, like, reflective gold.
And it's going to be...
It's going to be called 100% Pure Gold.
And it's going to be awesome.
Like, I'm making Cool Skull visuals all, like, gold and black and white.
