Folks, get down in the sunshine with us as we honor the 2023 solstice with summer jams throughout the ages.
Folks, get down in the sunshine with us as we honor the 2023 solstice with summer jams throughout the ages.
It’s the first official day of summer ‘23, and the longest day of the year. Let’s get down in the sunshine. Classic solstice jams abound: Ramp (Roy Ayers Music Productions) give us “Everybody Loves The Sunshine,” Donna Summer contracts “Summer Fever, and Midnight Star remind us that there’s “No Parking on the Dance Floor.” Plus, new “song of the summer” contenders à la Quantic’s “Run,” and Beck + Phoenix’s disco-tastic “Odyssey.”

SiLVA
A dance-forward mix that moves freely between house, disco, boogie, electronic music, global club sounds, and plenty in between. SiLVA’s sets are built for Saturday night, mixing new tracks, classics, edits, and deep cuts without getting boxed into one genre. The emphasis is on movement, surprise, and keeping the energy alive from one record to the next. Tune in to SiLVA Saturday evenings from 6 to 8pm.
Resident DJ
Immersion (Colin Newman and Malka Spigel) are our Resident DJs for October 2026.
Tyler "Boogie" Boudreaux
Part wax, part digital, pure heat. Tyler “Boogie” Boudreaux channels KCRW’s eclectic sound through a kaleidoscope of psych, garage rock, soul, funk, and indie sounds. Vintage records collide with new releases, while house, indie dance, post-punk, trip-hop, darkwave, and unexpected detours keep the boundaries loose. The common thread is energy, groove, and discovery, with one hand in the crates and the other firmly planted in what’s happening now. Tune in to Tyler’s show Thursday nights from 8 to 10pm.
Must Listen
