Bad news, Pink Cat is, in fact, bad. So Nyanners has been kicked out and banned from the mock stataion. Awkward timing for me, seeing her go mask off again.
The good news, the first Eurovision add in this project's existence (I think?).
Yeah, not a very AAA-centered week, much like the whole month. --- Weekend of May 29, 2023 - Official Adds:
* Inverse (ft. Miori Celesta) - "Blue" * Käärijä - "Cha Cha Cha" * Kesha - "Only Love Can Save Us Now" * Libianca - "People" * Nothing But Thieves - "Overcome" (Tested Pick) * Rita Kamishiro (PRISM Project) - "My World" (Tested Pick)

Weekend of June 5, 2023 - Official Adds:
* Dua Lipa - "Dance the Night" * Ghost - "We Don't Need Another Hero" (The original from Tina Turner was also added.) * Sarah Kinsley - "Lovegod" (Tested Pick) * YOASOBI - "アイドル (Idol)"
Also last month's recap was temporarily down because clowns at SME (and by extension, 5k Records) blocked it for the usage of Libianca's "People". It's now back up, but that song is now muted (though the recap on Vanillo is still untouched, last time I checked).

Like I told my followers on Twitter, I will be slowly transitioning into an IRL Online Radio Project (where my local therapy is going to host it). No further details since it WILL NOT be under my internet identity as Spectrum, and I don't want to doxx myself...especially given my current living situation, except that:
1. Some songs from IRL Radio Project could carry over into WCAS Mock Radio.
2. If there are further delays because of it (and not just my ongoing, troubling mental state) that's why. --- Weekend of June 12, 2023 - Official Adds:
* Gabriels - "Glory" * Niall Horan - "Meltdown"

Weekend of June 19, 2023 - Official Adds:
* Arlo Parks - "Blades" * Dan Croll - "Talk to You" (Tested Pick) * Emotional Oranges (ft. Nonso Amadi) - "Not Worthy" (Tested Pick) * NewJeans - "Ditto" * WITCH - "Stop the Rot"
"Free" (Florence + the Machine) & "Astrogirl" (Sana Tsukumo & Snail's House) finally get powered down after being currents for 53 weeks(!), becoming the first ones to eclipse the full-year mark. That sets a new record, beating the previous records (Midnight Grand Orchestra's "SOS" (44 Weeks) & "Allegro" (45 Weeks)).

Weekend of July 17, 2023 - Official Adds:

NOTE: "Be the light" is the first Idol-centered ensemble anthem to be added in the mock station's history. Prior to this song, the closest to an add like this would be the unit song, "Suspect" from 2021's Bouquet, under the Hololive Idol Project name.

Spotify was acting really funny on my end, so apologies if this week wraps up a dismal month for new currents. Well that and the world going to shit for the millionth time, and as a result, music needed to take a backseat yet again. --- Weekend of October 30, 2023 - Official Adds: * Brittany Howard - "What Now" (Tested Pick) * PEPMA DJ (ft. La Kampos) - "Let's Go" (Tested Pick - thanks TOTC Discord) NOTE: I already did an update on my YouTube channel recently, but I'll remind you all again as part of this month's upcoming add recap. Yes, it includes the possibility of making a new main channel to house these recaps (and other music-related / me-related things) going forward next year.
