Airing 23 - "Maelstrom"



Some, like, technical problems and sheez this week. Not that bad, but I had to restart a song or two because our CD players were being temperamental. The archived show preserves these precious moments in all of their unpolished glory - college radio at it's finest.

Oh and I'm gonna try something new for you, dear blog consumer: i'll be italicizing my favorite new songs from each show, starting with this one. I like all the music that I play, but some songs are just dang awesome, and i'd like to foist my opinions onto you as much as possible.
Get down with the jive hours, son!

Airing 22 - "Savory Spiritual"




Ok, so this is like a week and a half belated. And due to various factors (including, but not solely on account of, laziness), there will be no playlist for this airing. Maybe a couple weeks down the line one will show up, but don't get your hopes up.
But since I actually recorded this show, you get to hear the track names straight from the smooth, sassy voice of dj paul. Except that I only announce them like every 45 minutes...

Airing 21 - "Secondary Salmagundi"




Same deal as the first airing - the archive is just a mix, not an actual recording of the show.
This is a really good one though, and you can start to see the trend that i'm heading towards: all new music. I played out a lot of my collection last year, and I want to keep the jive hours extra fresh.

Speaking of which, you should probably listen to the new show "Xtra Fresh" on saturday late-nights at 2am. DJ Baron von Jacuzzi will caress your ears and finesse your hips with non-stop electro-pop greatness.

Airing 20 - "Opening Alloy"



So I didn't actually record the first two airings of this fall, but I did put together a mix of the songs that I played. The disadvantage (or is it an advantage?): none of the trademark "this day in history" or other captivating monologues... but you've got wikipedia, you can look some up for yourself.
