First Crush
Friday September 19th, 2025 with Zoë Argiropulos-Hunter
Current Listening / Inspired by Travels to Detroit

Hi CKCU listeners! After some time away from the studio, I am back at the faders! Thank you to my dad, Dylan Hunter, for filling in on my show while I was away. First Montreal, then Windsor and Detroit. Today on First Crush, I'll be playing new releases from mainstays of the show and new discoveries alike. The second half of today's broadcast is inspired by my recent trip to Detroit. I was fortunate to visit Motor City with friends late this past August and early September, and left feeling inspired to have walked the same streets as so many musical greats. If you find yourself in Detroit, please visit Exhibit 3000, the world's first and only techno museum: https://www.submergedownload.com/exhibit-3000. I didn't do as much crate digging as I would have liked, but I did get a The Gories 45 at Third Man Records, another essential Detroit stop for any music fan.
