Airing 35 - "Gender Binary"




Boys vs. Girls::: WHO'S GUNNA WIN?!?!
That's right-- it's an all out jive-off between male and female singers. Tracks from some hot new releases, strategically ordered for deep consideration. Who wins? You Decide!

[EDIT] - There's some unintentional, equipment related, distortion on a lot of the songs on this recording. I'll try to fix this up and post a non-distorted version by the end of March. Check back later this month.
[EDIT 2] - I might never get around to fixing the disortions, sorry
