Playlist for Ska’s the Limit on February 06, 2010
I was trying out the new KDHX slogan, last night, “Independent Music Plays Here.” I gotta say, I love the new direction the stations been heading- and it’s not just because of my new time slot. The phone was ringing off the hook; mostly calls from other KDHX DJs, which I took as a huge compliment. I’ve recreated the playlist below, but there just aren’t that many videos and sounds to show off this week. Instead, I’ve included more educational links, and I encourage you to learn more about these artists- you’ll be hearing more from them, I promise.
If you missed the show, click over to KDHX.org to stream the archive.
