Our Brooklyn studios are shut down but we're not letting that keep us from coming together! This is a special edition to hold us down until next week, when I'll start streaming live again from the home studio. Much appreciate everyone who keeps tuning in and joining us. We're gonna ride this out, together!

That "January Was a Long Ass Year" Funk

Pardon the gap in uploads, we had some technical difficulties with the last couple shows but I'll be catching up over the next week! This is our mix from the day after Neil Peart of Rush passed, and we started it out with a special blend/mashup in his honor.

Our first show for 2020 comes on the heels of dark and troubling news, and we've got a full plate of musical nourishment to get ready for a looonng year with lots of work to do.
