TUNE IN For Naughties Non-Friday...It's Like Eighties Friday, But Naughtier.
We all live in the naughties.
(There's twisted logic here: "Naught" is a word for zero, and since every other decade in a century can have a good sounding name, the first decade should as well. "The Zeroes" and "The Oh-Ohs" might have their supporters, but for me, these are "The Naughties".)
So, as you well know, we do Eighties Friday every week, playing the best tracks in our library that the Eighties had to offer. Every non-Friday, we play the stuff we've got available right now, and we're trying to make it as good from today's perspective as Eighties Friday would have been from the perspective of those halcyon days.
"But, Sean," I hear you say (because of the voices I hear in my head,) "all of these new songs are weird and scary! How could I be comfortable listening to them?"
And the fact is, they *are* weird and scary. They're as weird and scary as the classic tracks we play all day every Friday were when they first came out...and you loved 'em then.
I see no issues here...(but then, I wouldn't)
Don't worry - every few songs, when you worry you'll never hear something you recognize, you will...'cause I think those classics still have a relevant place alongside the new stuff I've picked for Altrok Radio. That's always kind of been the point.
Maybe you'll hear a song that goes too far. Stick around anyway, 'cause the next one'll probably blow your socks off.
Stay tuned. See what's next. (That's why we're here.)
