Notes

Ames' own beats producer DJ Purify dropped by again this week to chat about what he has been up to, which turned out to be quite a lot. You may remember when he dropped by the show back in November with Aeon Gray. We didn't talk quite so long this time, but Purify was still kind enough to drop all the news about what is going on with the local scene on us.
Look for new stuff by Purify out this summer--a new solo album, a film score and an EP with Aeon Gray, among other things. He has more info up on his website at purifybeats.com.

No Playlists for mid-March 2006

OK, so we slacked off a bit in March.

o March 8, our show was preempted for a basketball broadcast.
o March 15 was Spring Break
o March 22 were the hearings where our student government dishes out our funding (Toasty held it down for the first half, then we went out to "celebrate"...

But it's back to work next week! F'real!

Short set tonight because of the ISU-Nebraska basketball game. The whole show was a series of tracks in honor of Valentine's Day that were not so much about love as... well... you know. The second half-hour was a weird mish-mash of "old-school" hip-hop freak tracks I found around the studio. Yeah.

Notes

Yo, this is Toasty. I just finished my first set here on We Built the Railroads. I haven't done any radio shows for years, but I think I got back into the DJ booth again with a bang. Bangin' tracks that is. SLAM! Left Coast hip-hop and experimental breaks from Japan. I'll keep trying to bring that bangin' stuff you kids like through the semester.

Notes

I kind of slacked off this show, because I was very busy that week and this was my only chance to do laundry. (Just down the hall from our Friley Hall studios is the residence hall's laundromat--very convenient.) Fortunately, I had recently received the most recent Scion mix from a friend and was looking forward to sharing Jazzy Jeff's mix with the listeners. Go listen!
