hey guys~
This wednesday, I'm gonna be spinning some PC Music and related tracks for 4 full hours (!!!), from 10pm-2am EST. I would love to get y'all's input on tracks that you want me to play. Of course, I'll be playing all the official releases from the label, SOPHIE, and the Charli collab. However, if you have any advice on proto-bubblegum bass tracks that I should play to introduce the label, tracks by similar-sounding or -minded artists, etc, etc.
Let me know! excited about this!
it will be streaming live at whrb.org. hope that some of you can tune in!
here's the blurb for the special (we call them "orgies" on the station)

Bubblegum Bass: PC Music and Beyond
What is Bubblegum bass? The sound of a decade? The final flush of the toilet that is pop music? Not in recent memory has a new genre of music come onto the scene and received such a wide mix of ecstatic praise and vitriolic hatred. Why? Focusing on the London label PC music, this orgy will establish a definitive timeline of influence, development, and establishment for the genre, starting with the chiptune and bubblegum eurodance hits of the early aughts, onto the establishment of the Nordic Dance pop machine of mid-2000s glory, and into the present, where masterminds like A.G. Cook, SOPHIE, Felicita, and Danny L Harle have changed the face of pop music--perhaps forever, or perhaps just for the moment.
