Show number 105!

As always, the latest and greatest in leftfield beats and electronic soul, plus interviews with my favorite artists for your listening pleasure every Sunday night on Dash 1 at DashRadio.com.

We never play the same song twice on this show, so consider it your weekly update of all things new and good in soulful and beat-driven music.

Dan Digs & RJD2

This week we welcomed RJD2 to the #DanDigsShow.

RJ and I talked about Philly, crate digging, Daddy Kev, John Carpenter, Vangelis, his latest album Dame Fortune, what exactly a “sheboygan” is, and making songs that don’t fit the regular mold.

 
Plus the show saw brand new music from NxWorries, Steve Spacek, Blank Blue, Bells Atlas, and the Cinematic Orchestra.
