Once upon a time there were two amateur DJs who, encumbered by hectic travel schedules, insomnia, and some new software to understand while live on-air, had a bit of a shaky start to their show.
Luckily, though, it all worked out Happily Ever After, thanks to new music from Perfume Genius, King Tuff, Logos, Fenster, Alice Boman, Ryan Adams, Allah-Las, SBTRKT, Black Milk, My Brightest Diamond, Salt Cathedral, Banks and Clark (whew!) plus another song from Ty Segall's new album (because holy wow), and a light sprinkling of not-totally-new-but-not-super-old-either songs.
Simon and Ben also find time to come to terms with the idea of their inevitable stalker somewhere out in radio-land, and cover the shocking (but - possibly - fictional) youth trend of wearing each others' faces.
Plus, tickets to American Tripps' "Singin and Pingin'" are up for grabs!
