We kick things off with what may be a deep cut of Paul McCartney & Wings after his string of underplays at the Fonda Theater this weekend. You'll hear a cutting edge debut single from 22-year old Iranian rapper AYK, a Swedish indie band with a song about Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones, we connect dots between new Beabadoobee with The Marias and a 90's trip hop classic, you'll hear Greek singer-songwriter Monika's driving love-letter for her new home in L.A. and we end the show with a brand new epic Soulwax seven minute single that was created for their first rave after hours at the legendary Abbey Road Studios.
