THE POLITICS OF BOREDOM: A HISTORY OF PUNK ROCK on the Thursday Night 
Feature, Tonight, 9 p.m. to midnight
Tune in as we present a simple yet comprehensive look through the history 
of punk rock, starting in 1967 with the Velvet Underground and running up 
towards the beginning of New Wave. Expect Suicide, The Saints, Richard 
Hell, Patti Smith, The Damned, and much, much more.

BLACK TWIGS on the Inside Track, Friday, 9 p.m.
Virginia old-time 
revivalists The Black Twigs (formerly The Black Twig Pickers) present 
MIDNIGHT HAS COME AND GONE, their 3rd release on the Fairfax, VA, label 
VHF. It follows pretty much along the lines of their previous two: lots of 
furious fiddling, rich banjo and resonator guitar, and a great admiration 
of the music of their grandparents. The group includes members of the 
Virginia psych/drone outfit Pelt.

1970s HI RECORDS SPECTACULAR on Hell or High Water, Sunday, 1 p.m. to 2 
p.m.
Soul trumpeter Willie Mitchell is perhaps best known for his production at 
Hi Records in the 1970s. This week, we'll explore his work with Al Green, 
Syl Johnson, Ann Peebles, and more.

RIO BAILE FUNK on the Inside Track, Monday, 9 p.m.
Hot on the heels of Diplo's fantastic production on his Florida release, 
as well as the M.I.A. Piracy Funds Terrorism mix tape, German label Essay 
has released a guide to thumping electro beats and Portuguese rapping. The 
18 cuts here mix traditional rhythms of the favelas alongside old-school 
and Miami bass beats to make a great party sound.
