Front and center for "Hot Takes" episode 57 was seminal early vaporwave duo Topaz Gang! We have been wanting to bring some guests from across the pond on to the show for a long time, and what better act to debut with than our old friends Topaz Gang!? Known for their early involvement in the scene, collaborating with such greats as Luxury Elite, Saint Pepsi, and even Vektroid herself, our allotted time with Topaz Gang hardly seemed sufficient to pick their brains and celebrate their stories. We got to know their backstories making chiptune in Newcastle, along with plenty of details about their current coldwave/post-punk project Novyi Lef. Plenty of details about hardware came up, in addition to some factoids and well-kept secrets regarding Topaz Gang's production process. We got to see some of the favorite grails in their physical media collections, and Euan spoke at profoundly great length about the Bootleg Beatles. So many more great moments transpired during the episode that haven't been highlighted, so let it play and tell us what your favorite moment with Topaz Gang was!
