Congratulations on being a genius.
































You are an unheralded genius.

Actually, I don't know that for sure, since I don't know you. Maybe you are heralded -- maybe you are worshiped by nerds, have your own fan club and can't go out in public without paparazzi dizzying your eyeballs with flash bulbs. But if that is the case, then you are heralded for something other than why you really should be heralded.

Put simply, you are a notable person -- because you discovered Seduction City. And not only that, you actually took the time to click on the link and come to The Seduction City website. In this topsy-turvy world, that should count for something, and it does. It means you have taste. Or lack thereof, but taste nonetheless.

There are other good internet radio stations, of course. Other stations that play Flunk, Hooverphonic, Massive Attack, Portishead, etc. Heck, I listen to many of them frequently even though i guess they are my "rivals" (hated enemies?) and I should be bagging on them for being not as good as Seduction City. But that's not my style. They have their genres, their artists and their songs that they like to play, and who can deny them that? They are all good and viable and their mothers love them and they don't make the world a worse place to live.

But c'mon, they aren't as good.

I mean, how many of them are going to sit around at 4:20am on a Saturday night searching for the goddamn Stefan Blomberg Vocal Chill Mix of Modulation's "Sky." They have social lives, they have people that care about them, they have more important thing to do like bathing, polishing their coin collections and picking lint from their toenails -- they don't have time to search for obscure vocal trance chill remixes recorded five years ago.

Did you hear about the guy in Japan who played video games for like 4 days straight and died from dehydration and starvation because he was so ENGROSSED in playing Halo or Everquest or whatever game he was addicted to, that he forgot to eat?

Well, neither did I...because I've spent countless months scouring cyberspace and record stores for ridiculous tunes that meet Seduction City standards. Who needs showering, bathing, sustenance or shelter when something so vital is at stake?

Okay, full disclosure: I have been consuming cans of 5-Hour-Energy. Every 15 minutes.

All hail the necessities of life--Music, checkered Vans, massage chairs, Pixie Stix and old Jonny Quest cartoons. And 80s video games like Joust and Pole Position. And while we're at it, hell...food and water. Because, they too have their niche in civilized society.

Just don't sniff my armpits.

Fondly,
Your Seduction City Programmer
