accessory for escape


I found this blue leather samsonite travel bag at a small place on the Ave...the name is something like One Point Six one Eight..or something. One step closer to New York City i think

WO'POP

KEXPs WO'POP
Hands down one of the best parts about living in Seattle is listening to 90.3 KEXP on the radio. Mornings crossing the 520 bridge are made more than bearable solely because this station plays MUSIC! What an idea, eh? "Listener powered" KEXP is essential to my exploration of the world of music both in the Northwest and around the world. A few weeks ago on my commute home I made the personal discovery of Darek Mazzone's show WO'POP on Tuesdays from 3pm-6pm. Playing sounds from Puerto Rico to Bombay, Cairo to Mumbai, this man knows everything so ill let his words speak for themselves:

"Wo-Pop is a 3 hour look into what used to be called “World Music” I call it “Modern Global Music” because it encompasses all the current musical genres while being deeply engaged in the sounds and ideas of each city or region.

You will find Brazilian D&B, French and Cuban Hip Hop, South African Kwaito, Bhangra and Bollywood from Bombay and London, Malabax from Senegal, Ragga Dub from Brixton and Tokyo, and anything else that producers create from the 6 corners of the world.

I have the great pleasure of interviewing these artists and playing their tracks before they go public. It’s a great show that always surprises and hopefully inspires you to collect stamps. (passport stamps that is)

-Darek Mazzone"


Test it baby, it's brilliant! (oh and if you haven’t wandered around KEXPs website yet, I highly suggest that you do…it's easy to use and quite, quite credible)
KEXP!

Oh Hey. cute.
