Happy Friday Drivers!
Hope you’ve had a decent week.
Been a busy one over here but I think it will benefit this week’s show.
Digging deep in the crates to keep things fresh for my enslavement to twitch this week. Tell you all about it after 6pm.
Some sweet wax bubbled up from the vault that I can’t wait to share with you all!
Hopefully the music will come together as planned and all fit in this two hour slot.
Thank you for being here and hope you enjoy today's offering.
Happy listening!

Witch Prophet at the NAC-CNA Fourth Stage
20:30h EST
Witch Prophet is a queer, Ethiopian/Eritrean, singer-songwriter, and the Co-CEO of Heart Lake Records. She provides her fans with a soundscape of vocal layers, loops, raps, and harmonies on a bed of hip-hop, jazz, and soul-inspired beats. Think Erykah Badu meets Lauryn Hill meets Portishead. She finds depth and connection in creating music as a portal for self-growth and discovery, as she navigates and better understands her cultural and queer identity.

Kosmic is a celebration of art, architecture, fashion and music.

We are elated to present a two night celebration at Club SAW on April 1st and 2nd. Installations, refreshments, music and dancing apply to both. You can decide when to participate.
Buy your tickets at www.kosmic.online or find us in Building 22 (CU Architecture) on Mondays+Wednesdays.
