Good evening folks, it’s the Big Double D here, that is Derk Derkson not quite live but still alive from the Full Moon Lounge. It’s my turn to take over the Surfphony of Derstruction and do what I do best... play the latest and the greatest in Exotic Surf from around the Earth. My friend, Derk Brigante, he likes to keep things at top speed but The Big Double D… well, that just ain’t my style. I’m keeping things nice and slow and all slicked up so why don’t ya grab a seat at the bar, get yerself a drink and unwind a little bit. The moon is looking topped right up and that tends to get people actin’ a lil funny but don’t worry about here, everyone is being real cool and looking real cool… and with me behind the wheel, it’s going to sound real cool. So, tune yer ears into tonight’s special, this is EXODERKA

The Surfphony of Derstruction Presents: Lost at Sea

YO FINKS IT IS MY BROTHER'S BIRTHDAY TODAY!!! THAT'S PRETTY COOL! This is my lil BRO SHANE JACKSON BIONDI CAN YOU DIG IT???

BAD ASS!!

OK WHAT THE HECK AM I DOIN' HERE?? Well, as a small b-day present to him and TO YOU FINKS I GUESS, here's a lil something I cooked up...

The Surfphony of Derstruction Presents: Lost at Sea by Derk Brigante on Mixcloud

Now, if The Big Derboski can be serious for a moment as this particular podcast doesn't really call for all the stylin' and profilin' necessary for a regular ol' episode of The Surfphony of Derstruction 2000. Yeah, this lil podcast is considered... off the record, in a way. I compiled a bunch of songs that have a real deserted island sound combined with crashing waves and the sounds of the surf... not only surf music but the sorta stuff ya hear by the ocean. Real calming stuff. So, if yer looking to chill and reminisce about the warm weather or you need some music to watch girls by on the beach then Lost at Sea is right up yer alley. I don't do any talking, just lots of surf, real nice! So just turn on, tune in and mellow out when you're... Lost at Sea.

SURFPHONY OF DERSTRUCTION 2000 - EPISODE 12

THERE'S A FULL MOON OUT IN THE SKY TONIGHT WOOOOO!! YES THE SURFPHONY OF DERSTRUCTION IS HERE! THE TIDE IS HIGH AND THE BIG DERBOSKI HAS COME ASHORE! one problem though... IT'S THE END OF THE WOOOOOOOOOOOOORLD!!!

DAAAAAAANG! NOT QUITE LIVE BUT STILL ALIVE, I'M BRINGING THE LAST EPISODE OF THE MONTH AND MAYBE... FOREVER?? JUDGMENT DAY IS NIGH but that doesn't mean the Surfphony is gonna stop coming to ya every single full moon!

New Dimensions - Phantom Skiier

ONE HELLUVA PLAYLIST FOR THE END OF THE WORLD if i do say so myself... ALRIGHT I FEEL LIKE.. talkin' about The Ventures' Diamond Head!


woooo I gotta say, Diamond Head has to be one of my favorite surf songs. If you were to ask me "DERK what is YOUR quintessential surf song?!" I would say Diamond Head. I'm not too keen on my music terminology but the riff is too wild and has a really chilly vibe what with all the REVERB WOOOOOOO!

Where does the name Diamond Head come from? It is the name of a volcano on the Hawaiian island of O'ahu! The name was given to the mighty volcano by 19th British Sailors who thought the calcite crystals were diamonds.

Diamond Head is also the name of a sweet HEAVY METAL band!


The Ventures got wicked big in Japan back in the early 1960's. They even inspired the teenagers of Japan to form their own surf bands. The Surf genre went by another name, that being Eleki Boom. Two of Japan's biggest Eleki Boom artists were Yuzo Kayama and Takeshi Terauchi. I brought some Yuzo Kayama trax to the Big Surf last month and you should def take a listen. I played some Takeshi on this show but ya know what, I play Takeshi Terauchi a lot haha... He has to be one of my favorite surf guitarists. He plays a real fast style ala Dick Dale and makes hella use of his whammy bar but also plays real clean riffs like the Ventures. SO HOW ABOUT THIS HOW ABOUT Yuzo Kayama... AND Takeshi Terauchi!! NO WAY



UH YEAH WAY!!! If ya feel like reading a bit more about the Eleki Boom era, dig this article on The Video Beat!

HEY YO I gotta tell you about a show coming up in the Toronto area ya dig?  The King Beez are hosting a tribute show to LOU REED! Lotsa bands and musicians are getting together to pay tribute to the man on SATURDAY DECEMBER 21ST THAT'S NICE!

Make yer way over to The Sister at 1554 Queen St West if yer feelin' like it... and you should feel like it, ya bum! it's gonna be a real show show, DIG?


 I'm hoping that someone plays this real kool lou reed track haha

SURFPHONY OF DERSTRUCTION 2000 EPISODE 11

WOOOOOOOOO WHAT BE KOOL, FINKS, IT'S THE SURFPHONY OF DERSTRUCTION 2000 COMING AROUND FOR ANOTHER FULL MOON!! Autumn is in full swing and the Big Derboski is just chillin' and reminiscing about the summer... AND ABOUT SURF TOO because my summer definitely consisted of the Big Surf. That don't mean we have to stop though, hell no, The Surfphony is just gonna keep on going, playing for ya that surf from around the earth to keep ya dreaming about those summer days!

LAST MONTH WAS OCTOBER in case you have been living under a rock. October means it is Halloween! and Halloween means the Surfphony goes BEYOND THE GRAVE! Count Von Derkula took over for me on The Big Surf for the Month of October and brought a little bit of Halloween Havoc! You still got time to check it out and, YA KNOW WHAT, The Surfphony of Derstruction BOO-THOUSAND is always in season whenever yer looking for some spooky surf! Don't be afraid! You can always find B000 right here on mixcloud!

Surfphony of Derstruction B000 by Derk Brigante on Mixcloud

ALRIGHT, speakin' of Count Von Derkula and his nightmare mash, he extended an invite to me and I could not pass it up. The Count would drop dead if I ditched his little to-do! Well, I did drop by and, let me tell you, that was one helluva party. Count said it would be life-changing but I thought he was exaggerating... Well, he did run with Nostradamus for a little while and has a habit of making some pretty accurate assumptions...

Some weird things have been going on since the party... I thought it was just a nasty hangover at first. Maybe I will book an appointment with my voodoo doctor and have him check it out. He has a PHD in the freaky-deaky.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAW!!! HEY COWFINKS!! Sheriff Derk Brigante here again for The Surfphony of Derstruction! This episode, we heard THE CALL OF THE WEST and found ourselves out in the Wild West lookin' for somewhere to SURF! The tide decided to meet us halfway and so we had plenty of cacti and seaweed to go around! The specialty of this week's Surfphony of Derstruction was all sorts of Western sounding Surf! Yeehaw! Something unusual about this show was that much of the artists were CANADIAN! HUH?! Kind of unusual seeing as many of the artists are from the Great White North rather than the Wild West! I guess Canadians never forgot the Alamo either!

November 30th - MIDNIGHT IN SALERNO

What a night, finks! The weather in Windsor was complete crap! It was dark and rainy as hell outside! The perfect weather for The Surfphony of Derstruction's FIRST-EVER theme show: MIDNIGHT IN SALERNO! We played all sorts of Nighttime Surf and it was good times! I had plenty of material to keep us goin', maybe even till midnight! Here's the playlist of what I did get to spin:

new plays

artist	song
urban surf kings	luger 3
the reverb syndicate	onto checkpoint bravo

HUH?!?! ZZ TOP?! What is ZZ TOP doing on DA SURF?! First of all, ZZ TOP is ol' skool kool! Second, ZZ Top consists of amazing instrumentalists and the track Asleep in the Desert attests to that.

I was really excited about playing this song and talking about it on-air but I missed my chance! So here, check it out again!

Unfortunately, I cannot post as many youtube videos this week as a lot of the tracks I spun are troublesome to find on youtube.

In other news, I will be filling in for Martin Schiller of Tacit Karaoke this Sunday, December 5th. Tacit Karaoke is an all-instrumental program on CJAM 99.1 and I will adhere to the instrumentality! Not surf though, but something else... tune in to find out! THIS SUNDAY @6 PM on CJAM 99.1!

One more thing, SOCAN tracking period is coming up this weekend! December 5,6, and 7th! The Surfphony is on during this period so next week is an impromptu theme show! I will be spinning all Canadian surf bands in hopes that they are registered with SOCAN and get some money from the gov'! So, if you happen to be a Canadian surf band member reading this blog, Register for SOCAN and let me know that you want your tracks played!

Here's a Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet video to celebrate Canuck Surf!!
