Guess who's back, ladies, gentlemen and everyone in between? I'm spinning at during the completely sensible hours of 4-8pm today.

And this just in: the music now goes to the patio as well! So grab a drink, sit outside and chill at my favorite spot in town as I return to the ones and twos.

So much good stuff this week - a Northern soul track by Toni Basil from 1966 (I know!), Yugoslavian disco, space reggae and more Moogs than you can shake a stick at.

Reposted from A playlist is so much more than a bunch of songs strung together. As a writer Iโ€™ve always believed that a great mix should have an emotional storyline of highs and lows, twists and turns, that takes a listener on a journey from point A to point B, and leaves you somehow changed at the finish line. ๐ŸŽฌ๐ŸŽง๐Ÿ›ฃ

Not sure what I mean? Well, awhile back one my favorite creative collaborators and I conceptualized an imaginary Wes Anderson film and created a soundtrack for it. Meet *Radio Kiki* - itโ€™s up on now at mixcloud.com/oddmonster - or follow the link in my bio for the repost.

Give it a listen and see where it takes you. Happy travels! ๐Ÿ’ซ

Reposted from Ready for a flashback to 1995? Up now on - another faux soundtrack made with my DJ-partner-in-crime-and-records ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐ŸŽง๐ŸŽฌ

In the style of director Amy Heckerling, this 90โ€™s Rom Com influenced soundtrack follows the story of straight-laced Russell Corcoran, who after being dumped by his girlfriend and expelled from law school, attempts to hide from reality by taking a job at the local independent video store - only to find purpose, redemption and romance among the storeโ€™s eccentric staff and quirky cast of regular customers.

Featuring tracks from Elastica, Supergrass, Morphine, Pavement, Luna, Mudhoney and many more. This mix comes in at a tight 70 minutes - just short enough to fit on a compact disk! ๐Ÿ’ฟ

Due to food poisoning I won't be spinning tonight, but you're in for a treat because I snagged to cover for me!

Reposted from Iโ€™ll be subbing in on the decks for tonight at - so stack on those jelly bangles, crimp your hair, and join me for some seriously *like* rad new wave, no wave, synth pop and mutant disco bangers!

(Thanks for letting me steal your flyer and your gig, Odd!)
