Jazzy Respect, Lil Twain, Global Maestro, call her what you will my dear old friend Ilana came out to guest on the show last week! Never got the whole story on that water bottle, but that shirt (courtesy of Gutter Butter) ensures she's repping Chicago to the fullest. Former WOBCer and current Chicagoite, Ilana DJ's the occasional dance party queer and otherwise with an ear to the ground for old vinyl, blog finds, and overseas hits. See the playlist here and audio below!
Hectic start with a mix from reggaeton pioneer Playero DJ to get things settled. Plenty of tunes from Ilana's hard drive and internet finds. CD's from a recent trip to Egypt, and a harsh 30 minute high school jazz band arrangement of Lady Madonna to close it out so be be sure to catch all the action. Thanks again to Ilana for coming through! Sharing tracks back and forth just like old times although I don't think we ever shared time on the air. Total blast!
No Mofo tonight. I've got to run down to NU to open for Andrew W.K. who will be speaking tonight at Northastern. Sorry to leave you all but this was too random a gig to pass up. See you in a week!
