Music without words, words without music, and combinations therein. The freeform soundtrack for working, shirking, or twerking.

April 12, 2012: The "I didn't get tickets to see Kraftwerk" Stay-at-home Party!
Legendary electronic music pioneers Kraftwerk will be playing eight consecutive nights at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City in April. Were you one of the thousands of people who tried to buy tickets online on February 22nd and got totally shut out? Can’t afford the outrageous ticket scalpers’ prices? Ease the pain of missing these album-centric concerts by listening to Kraftwerk for three hours in the comfort of your own home! Join me as I spin nothing but Kraftwerk tunes and questionable Kraftwerk covers. Read their Wikipedia page while you listen; robot dancing is strongly encouraged!
