A little over a year ago, I gave my first tour of this wonderful city of shiny music, neon, and the brilliant lights shining from the artists that make this city such a beauty to behold and withstand. The Electric Metropolis Tourism Authority has had the privilege of welcoming guests from around the world, giving a home to music both razor-sharp new and polished with age classic. In the last year we have had the pleasure to speak with: coda, Jeff Ball, James Landino, Ben Briggs, Dana Jean Phoenix, Louie Aronowitz, Rozen, The Travelers VGM, Cody Carpenter, Mark Day, Dale North, Kommisar, Lemkuuja, Norihiko Hibino, Jayson Napolitano, The Hit Points, &amp; Aloe Island Posse. To them all, a million thanks for visiting The Electric Metropolis and being instrumental in making such music that brings this city of sound alive.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks this year goes out to Matt Nightengale of <a href=\"http:\/\/chsrfm.ca\/blog\/cat\/current-shows\/music\/rfyl\">Run For Your Life<\/a> for encouraging me to come onto the radio waves and share all this wonderful music with you!\u00a0Thanks also goes out to Jayson Napolitano and Scarlet Moon Productions for arranging many of the interviews and music for the VGM district! Finally, thank you my beautiful tourists for coming to visit all year and listening to what the city has to offer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Great Music Deserves to Be Heard!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1>Tour Itinerary:<\/h1>\n<h2><strong>First Stop<\/strong><strong>:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>&#8220;Your Love is a Drug ft. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AdrianaFigueroa\">Adriana Figueroa<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/insanerainmusic\">insaneintherain<\/a> Arrange) by <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/garoadmusic\">Garoad<\/a> off the VA-11 HALL-A EX &#8211;
