As broadcast October 26, 2023 with lots of action on the way this Friday! As one of the busiest periods of new music wraps up in the calendar year, we get to our usual funk punk soul rock smorgasbord with Dan Lloyd polishing off the meal with our AMPED rock feature for this week. Great new tunes out from Terrace Martin, Quantic, Kraak & Smaak, IDLES, and King Gizzard to get you warmed up for the weekend, and plenty of background to the foreground for the factual actuals out there.

As broadcast October 25, 2023 with a boatload of fierce, hard-earned independence in tow. Tonight we got on the plane once again for some wonderful traveling without moving and headed for Armenia's capital Yerevan. Much like Korea, Armenia's history has been marked heavily by interference and aggression from their its larger neighbors, but that has only hardened the Armenian people's desire for self-determination, even when it can only be over one's self. Spread all over the world now, the connection always remains to their now wholly independent country, and we took a trip all over the audio and geographic map to track down some of the best Armenian music from down the years up to the present day.

As broadcast October 24, 2023 with plenty of world for your premiere. Tonight we were very proud to give an early spin to Tessa Devine's new single "Dancing In The Rain," which is out on Thursday. We got to know Tessa while she was here as a contestant at the Busking World Cup, where she deservedly won the People's Choice Award in the finals. An infectiously gregarious character, you can check our exclusive interview with Tessa here if you want to understand more about what makes this on-the-rise artist tick and have a laugh, as she is just a joy to talk to and a very talented artist to boot. Great new tunes out this week to check out for the remainder, with Helado Negro, ivri, our friends Mecanico down in Chile, and a host of other immensely talented artists got to do a little sky dance on this night.

As broadcast October 23, 2023 with a boatload of shiny new goods and cellophane scents. Tonight, as we are wont to do, it's time to unwrap what's been dropped from the audio multiverse and see what we liked, starting with our dear friend out of San Diego Scoobert Doobert, whose new album MOB just dropped on Friday. We also had new jawnies from Haley Johnsen, Kurt Vile, and BADBADNOTGOOD to take us through hour one in style. Part 3 the big new tunes out this week had some decent selections, with Sampha's new album Lahai being a notable new record (and the artist's first in years), just out days ago. For the final stanza we had more from the local Korean realms to finish things off with heart signs, big highlights being Say Sue Me's latest single (what a banner year they've had), along with Balming Tiger's new record that slapped down to earth on Friday.

As broadcast October 20, 2023 with plenty of meteorites and lightshow magic to spare. It's another feelgood Friday and we've melded our Space Madness series into the mix as well, as the very long tail of dust and magic hits earth's atmosphere this weekend from the visit of Haley's Comet almost 40 years ago in 1986. Known as the Orionid Meteor showers, we started to think of it as Orion Smiling down upon us from way out in space, and our playlist reflected that to get your weekend going in the right way.

The music reflects this cultural milieu, with Chinese, Southeast Asian, Indian, Korean, Japanese, and Western influences all easy to spot to the trained ear. A great trip awaits to one of the world's truly great cities!
