Sometimes I have very heady mixes to send over to my friends at LYL Radio. Seriously high-falutin stuff, that right before I hit “Send”, even I have to stop myself and rethink a bit. “You know someone’s going to have to listen to these”, I say to myself before I click the button. It’s those…

Certain things aren’t lost on me. Whenever I look at my time slot at LYL Radio I feel a sense of responsibility. Each month on Wednesday, I end their programming day. For some, it’s 11 PM Paris time. While for others (like myself) it’s 4 PM Central Standard time. While one part of the world…

Rather than belabor you with nonsense trying to rectify itself as a theme, I’d rather rectify something I didn’t do last year: share my special hour-long Halloween mix for LYL Radio.

Mix Cover by Huiqian Wu For the longest, I’ve badgered a record label based out of St. Louis, Missouri — Paradise Is A Frequency — to share a mix of theirs on my radio show. For me, it all started with them reaching out years ago, sending out a digital handshake into the void saying…

Sometimes the best ideas come to you on-the-fly. Truth be told, I completely forgot about this month’s mix for LYL Radio. For the first time in a good long while, I had been strapped for time, making space to plan for a long vacation. So, if I had to carve out time for it, it…
